Ⅰ.阅读理解
John “Charlie” Veron—widely known as “the Godfather of Coral Reef(珊瑚礁)”—is a
celebrated expert who has personally discovered nearly a quarter of the world’s coral species and
has spent the past 45 years diving Australia’s Great Barrier Reef.But now the 73-year-old is
raising the alarm about its future.The Great Barrier Reef，one of the natural wonders，is 2,300
kilometers long and is the only living organism that can be seen from space.It is considered a World
Treasure Site due to its biodiversity(生物多样性) with 30 species of whales，dolphins and
sharks.Within the reef itself，there are also a number of tiny organisms and fishes.
However，its health is threatened.After the recent mass bleaching(白化) events，Veron dived
in many areas of the Great Barrier Reef to see the damage for himself.“I was seeing and feeling itand it was absolutely shocking，” he says.
Veron says the mass bleaching events in the past few years—and the possibility of losing one
of nature’s greatest treasures—were a wake-up call for the world in the wider battle against
climate change，which，together with the rising sea temperature，is considered the greatest
threats to the reef.
Fortunately，earlier this year，the Australian government announced nearly 400 million
dollars in new funding towards scientific projects designed to help the reef.
There has been criticism in Australia about the slow process for the funding.“It won’t be
wasted，though，” Veron says.“As scientists will be able to create a sort of seed bank to
protect the species until the climate is good enough to rebuild the reef.What the scientists hope to
do is to help nature along a bit after the big carbon dioxide increase is over and it starts to come
down.”

2．What’s Veron’s attitude to the future of the reef according to the last paragraph?

C．Scientists have found major factors in the reef’s bleaching.
D．Veron has made great contributions to environmental protection.
