    The establishment of 23 new (MCZs) means that 20% of English waters are now considered protected. The sites range from the Cromer Shoal Chalk Beds in the North Sea, down to Land’s End in the South West.

解析 新闻从开头开始便提到英国水域的新海洋保护区域(MCZs)的设立，随后便讲了其意义和目的。故A“建立英国海洋保护区”正确。B“政府承诺建立50个海洋保护区”、C“野生动物组织对这一声明很满意”和D“人们担心缺乏管理方案”均有在新闻中提到，但都只是报道的细节，不足以概括整篇报道。
