Ⅵ.概要写作
阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
We already know that the underwater world is anything but silent.It is full of natural sounds produced by animals and by the motion of the atmosphere and water.But today’s researchers are increasingly concerned about the man-made noises under the water.They are confusing and even killing fish,whales and other marine animals.
Although hearing is important to all animals,the special qualities of the undersea world emphasize the use of sound.Underwater sound allows marine animals to gather information and communicate at great distances and from all directions.Loud underwater n
oises can cause damage to their hearing.And nowadays it’s becoming too much for marine wildlife.Evidence shows that whales will swim hundreds of miles,rapidly change their depth,and even beach themselves to get away from the sounds of sonar.
