Read the following passage and mark the letter A,B,C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct answer to each question.
Until recently, humankind seemed to view the ocean as a source of infinite resources. Its vast
size and depthand unexplored frontiers made the ocean appear invulnerable to overexploitation. The
truth is that the populations of many species are decreasing at an unsustainable rate, and the number
of species listed as endangered from marine life families such as whales, dolphins, manatee and
dugongs, salmon, seabirds, sea turtles and sharks to name a few, are on the rise. The threats to marine
species are difficult to perceive because marine animals are not as visible as animals on land. But
unfortunately, marine creatures are equally, if not more, vulnerable to problems such as habitat
destruction and overexploitation. Shallow water animals that breathe air, like turtles, manatees,

dugongs, and whales are often hit by boats and caught in fishing gear.
Species such as turtles that lay their eggs on land often lose their nurseries due to coastal
development. Animals that have taken millions of years to evolve, that are invaluable to all
ecosystems, have and continue to vanish from places where they once flourished.
Question 36. What is human’s perception of ocean so far?
A. The ocean resources will never be exhausted.
B. The ocean is capable of resisting overexploitation.
C. A + B are correct.
