Forget about the spurious benefits of eating shark fin soup, a traditional Asian delicacy that is said to be responsible for the needless destruction of some 73 million sharks a year. In Palau, the first country in the world to proclaim a shark sanctuary, the sharks that frequent the Pacific island country’s reefs generate enormous financial benefits. A single reef shark can contribute almost US $ 2 million in its lifetime to the economy of Palau.
The analysis quantified the economic benefits of the shark-diving industry to the Pacific island nation and found that its value far exceeded that of shark fishing. A research focused on hundreds of reef sharks that frequent the five major dive sites in Palau. The study did not take into account the sharks in Palau waters that do not regularly visit the dive sites. Because of their low rates of reproduction and late maturity, shark populations have been driven into a global decline due to fi

[单项选择]Forget what Virginia Woolf said about What a writer needs-a room of one’s own. The writer she had in mind wasn’t at work on a novel in cyberspace, one with multiple hypertexts, animated graphics and downloads of trancey, chiming music. For that you also need graphic interfaces, ReslPlayer and maybe even a computer laboratory at Brown University. That was where Mark Amerika—his legally adopted name; don’t ask him about his birth name-composed much of his novel Grammatron. But Grammatron isn’t just a story. It’s an online narrative (grammatron. com) that uses the capabilities of cyberspace to tie the conventional story line into complicated knots. In the four years it took to produce—it was completed in 1997—each new advance in computer software became another potential story device. "I became sort of dependent on the industry", jokes Amerika, who is also the author of two novels printed on paper." That’s unusual for a writer, because if you just write on paper the" technology is pretty
A. differences between conventional and modern novels
B. how Mark Amerika composed his novel Grammatron
C. common features of all modern electronic novels
D. why Mark Amerika took on a new way of writing
