Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 26 to 33.
Coral reefs are among the most diverse and valuable ecosystems on Earth. Often referred to as the "rainforests of the sea", they occupy less than one percent of the ocean floor, yet they provide a home for more than twenty-five percent of all marine species. A healthy coral reef supports thousands of fish species, crustaceans, mollusks, and sea turtles.
In addition to their ecological richness, coral reefs play a crucial role in protecting coastlines. They act as natural barriers, reducing the impact of strong waves, tropical storms, and coastal erosion. By absorbing wave energy, reefs prevent property damage and save coastal communities millions of dollars each year. Furthermore, millions of people worldwide depend on coral reefs for food and employment, especially in the fishing and tourism industries.
Unfortunately, coral reefs are facing severe threats from human activities and global climate change. Rising ocean temperatures cause coral bleaching, a phenomenon where corals expel the beneficial algae living in their tissues, causing them to turn completely white. If water temperatures remain high for too long, the corals eventually die. In addition, water pollution, destructive fishing practices, and plastic waste have caused irreversible damage to these fragile habitats.
Scientists estimate that if global warming continues at the current rate, most of the world's coral reefs could be destroyed within the next few decades. To prevent this catastrophe, international cooperation is urgently needed. Countries must reduce greenhouse gas emissions, establish marine protected areas, and ban harmful fishing methods. Individuals can also contribute by reducing plastic consumption and supporting ecotourism.
