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 46 to 50.
Until recently, humankind seemed to view the ocean as a source of infinite resources. Its vast size and
depth and 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, manatees 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 46: What is human’s perception of the ocean so far?
A. The ocean resources will never be exhausted.
B. The ocean is capable of resisting overexploitation.
C. Both A & B are correct.
D. Neither of A & B is correct.
Question 47: All of the following are true EXCEPT ______.
A. Turtles are a kind of shallow water animal.
