10、 Just a year ago, the colors were bright under the waves. Now its gray the Maldivian reef is dead. The coral is killed by the pressure of rising temperatures.Coral reefs are areas underwater where small creatures live. The coral is hard material formed on the bottom of the sea by the skeletons of th
11、ose creatures. But the world has lost about half its coral reefs in the last 30 years. Scientists are working to prevent their destruction. Due to global warming, over 90 percent of corals are expected to die by 2050. “To lose coral reefs is to fundamentally undermine the health of a very large prop

The problem has become much worse in recent years.“Weve lost 50 percent of the reefs, but that means we still have 50 percent left,” said Ruth Gates, who is working in Hawaii to breed corals that can better withstand increasing temperatures. She is also trying to “train” corals to survive rising temperatures. Gates says it is time to start “thinking outside the box” find creative ways to help them.1、The underlined word “underm
