Task 3: Gap filling 答案请参考课本答案请参考课本 _ 课文翻译请参考下文：课文翻译请参考下文： 鲨鱼:危险动物还是濒危动物? 我们看到一个女人夜晚在漆黑的海水里游泳。突然,她被什么东西拖到了水下。她挣扎着露出 水面，发出惊恐的尖叫,然后就底消失了。这是 1975 年上映的电影大白鲨的开场画面,呈现了 鲨鱼攻击人类的一幕。电影讲述了一只大白鲨袭击并杀死游泳者的故事。电影大获成功,吸引了大 量现众并赢得了众多奖項。这部电影也加深了人们对大白鲨的固有印象:这是一种危险的动物 人类本就害怕鱼,而电影大

22、白鲨加深了这种恶劣印象,让人们对鲨鱼,特别是大白鲨,心生恐 惧。许多看过电影的人开始相信,鲨鱼是吃人的有害动物。由于害怕遇上电影里描绘的这种可怕生 物,有些人再也不去海里游泳了。 而另外一些人则开始无所顺忌地捕杀鲨鱼。 当时,没人在意鲨鱼是 否被杀,也没人在意杀了多少。人们认为鲨鱼死有余辜。 1975 年之后,在美国附近海域里,大型鲨鱼的数量迅速下降,这一趋势很快蔓延到全球。 这不仅 仅是因为人类对鲨鱼的恐惧,还因为采割鱼鳍。 采割鱼鳍是一种渔猎活动,人们捕到鲨鱼后将鱼鳍割 下,鲨鱼被扔回海中缓慢而痛苦地死去。 割下的鱼鳍用来做鱼翅汤。 每年有数百万的鲨鱼因此丧命。 鱼鳍采割活动对大白鲨电影的

23、原著作者彼得本奇利产生了出乎意料的影响。1980 年， 本奇利在潜水的时候看到了可怕的一幕:渔民们正在这片海域采割鲨鱼的鱼鳍,海底遍布着鲨鱼 的尸体。本奇利亲眼目睹鲨鱼被杀,这引起了他内心的深刻转变。他意识到人类才是鲨鱼的威助, 而鲨鱼并非人类的敌人。从那天起,他开始为保护鲨鱼而努力。他承认自己书中对鲨鱼行为的描述 是不正确的。 “鲨鱼并不以人类为攻击目标。 ”他说。专家们也已经证明鲨鱼不会将人类视为食物, 它们对人类的攻击都是无意的。每年因鲨鱼攻击致死的人数在六人左右。 幸运的是,并非每个看过 大白鲨 这部电影的人都变得害怕鲨鱼一一有些人变得更有兴趣去了 解它们。时至今日,随着我们对鲨鱼了解的加深,越来越多的人愿意去保护它们免遭灭绝。
