In 1972, a century after the first national park in the United States was established at Yellowstone, legislation was passed to create the National Marine Sanctuaries Program (国家海洋保护区计划) . The【C1】________ of this legislation was to provide protection to selected coastal habitats similar to that existing for land areas. The designation of a marine sanctuary indicates that it is a(n)【C2】________ area, just as a national park is. People are permitted to visit and observe there, but living organisms and their environments may not be harmed or【C3】________ .
70 sites were【C4】________ proposed as candidates for sanctuary status. Two and a half decades later, only fifteen sanctuaries had been designated, with half of these established after 1978.

The National Marine Sanctuaries Program is a crucial part of new management practices in which whole communities of species, and not just individual【C6】________ , are offered some degree of protection. Only in this way can a【C7】________ degree of marine species diversity be maintained in a setting that also maintains the natural relationships among these species.
Outside the United States, marine protected-area programs exist as marine parks, reserves, and preserves. Over 100 designated areas exist around the【C8】________ of the Carbbean Sea. Others range from the well-known Australian Great Barrer Reef Marine Park to lesser-known parks in countries such as Thailand and Indonesia, where tourism is【C9】________ growing pressures on fragile coral reef systems.

选项
答案
M
解析
上下文关键词复现题。根据词性,此处应当填入名词。species“物种”是该段的关键词,且whole communities of species和individual species形成对比,强调对整个区域的物种进行保护,而不是个别物种。故选species。
