问题     In 1959 Jacoues Cousteau sounded the alarm: the Mediterranean was dying. Diving off France’s southern coast, Cousteau found a marine desert that a few years earlier had teemed with fish and plants. He blamed poisons from the large urban and industrial complexes built near the sea. Cousteau crystallized growing public concern over pollution of the world’s seas and oceans. By the 1960s oil spills, chemicals and sewage were turning areas of the Baltic into toxic cesspools; heavy metals and DDT had accumulated in fish and shellfish from the Atlantic to the China Sea, causing carnage among birds that ate them and poisoning people.
选项
答案     雅克·库斯托在1959年为我们敲响了警钟——地中海正在走向死亡。库斯托从法国南部海岸潜入海中，发现数年前鱼类丰富、植物繁茂的海域如今已如同海中荒漠。他将这种改变归咎于建在海滨的城市以及工业排放的有毒物质所带来的污染。库斯托的言论也明确显示出公众对海洋污染问题愈发关注。至20世纪60年代，石油泄漏、化学污染和污水排放已将波罗的海地区变成了“毒水池”；从大西洋到中国海，鱼类和贝类体内均积聚了重金属和滴滴涕，这让以鱼类为食的鸟类大量死亡，同时也毒害了人类。
