Coral reef fish are fish which live amongst or in close relation to coralreefs. Coral reefs form complex ecosystems with tremendousbiodiversity. Among the myriad inhabitants, the fish stand out asparticularly colorful and interesting to watch.

Reef fish have developed many ingeniousspecializations adapted to survival on the reefs.Coral reefs occupy less than one percent of the surface area of theworld oceans, but still they provide a home for 25 percent of allmarine fish species. Reef habitats are a sharp contrast to the open 相关英文原文阅读water habitats that make up the other 99% of the world oceans.However, loss and degradation of coral reef habitat, increasingpollution, and overfishing including the use of destructive fishingpractices, are threatening the survival of the coral reefs and theassociated reef fish.As an example of the adaptations made by reef fish, the yellow tangis a herbivore which feeds on benthic turf algae.

Atlantis is the name of a fictional island mentioned within an allegory on the hubris of nations in Plato's works Timaeus and Critias, where it represents the antagonist naval power that besieges "Ancient Athens", the pseudo-historic embodiment of Plato's ideal state (see The Republic). In the story, Athens was able to repel the Atlantean attack, unlike any other nation of the (western) known world, supposedly giving testament to the superiority of Plato's concept of a state. At the end of the story, Atlantis eventually falls out of favor with the gods and famously submerges into the Atlantic Ocean.相关英文原文阅读Despite its minor importance in Plato's work, the Atlantis story hashad a considerable impact on literature. The allegorical aspect ofAtlantis was taken up in utopian works of several Renaissancewriters, such as Bacon's New Atlantis and More's Utopia. On theother hand, 19th-century amateur scholars misinterpreted Plato'saccount as historical tradition, most notably in Donnelly's Atlantis:The Antediluvian World. Plato's vague indications of the time of theevents—more than 9,000 years before his day—and the allegedlocation of Atlantis—"beyond the Pillars of Hercules"—has led to大连朗阁培训中心Research Academy for Foreign Language Examinationsmuch pseudoscientific speculation. As a consequence, Atlantis hasbecome a byword for any and all supposed advanced prehistoric lostcivilizations and continues to inspire today's fiction, from comic booksto films.While present-day philologists and historians unanimously accept thestory's fictional character, there is still debate on what served as itsinspiration. The fact that Plato borrowed some of his allegories andmetaphors—most notably the story of Gyges—from older traditionshas caused a number of scholars to investigate possible inspirationof Atlantis from Egyptian records of the Thera eruption, the SeaPeoples invasion, or the Trojan War. Others have rejected this chainof tradition as implausible and insist that Plato designed the storyfrom scratch, drawing loose inspiration from contemporary eventslike the failed Athenian invasion of Sicily in 415–413 BC or thedestruction of Helike in 373 BC.剑桥雅思推荐练习剑 6 Test 1;剑6 Test 3Reading Passage 3Title: Bright Children 聪明的孩子单选题(4)Question types: 句子搭配题(6)YES/NO/NOT GIVEN (4)主要讨论了教育资源分配的问题。
