Fish pollution reading passage with answer 3 & 4
Read the following text and fill in each gap with a suitable word based on the information of the text.
Fish population is at the risk from global warming. Climate change is increasing the water temperature in lakes, rivers and seas. This indicates there is less food and supply of oxygen available for fish. It again means that fish may not grow properly and may have fewer generations. If temperatures rise even by one or two degrees, some fishes will be extinct from our planet.
Climate change increases the pressure on fish population and these fishes are treated as one of the most valuable biological assets. 40% people of the world depend on fish for their protein. In case of our failure to reduce greenhouse gas emission, we will increase the pressure on fish. Thus, people depending on fish will suffer from malnutrition, hunger and poverty.

The temperature rise of water in rivers, lakes and seas has (a) --- in the scarcity of food and oxygen for fish. As a result, the (b) --- and reproduction of fishes is being hampered. If temperature rise goes on in this rate, it will cause the (c) --- of some fishes. If this happens, people (d) --- on fish as the main source of protein will suffer a lot. A possible solution to this problem is the (e) --- of greenhouse gas emission.

Global warming raises the stress on fish population. Fish is one of the most (a) --- assets. Many people of the world eat fish as their main source of protein. Many people also earn their (b) --- by fishing. But they are not free from danger. Global warming is the major (c) --- for their extinction. Climate change bears a great effect on their lives. If global warming cannot be (d) ---, the full growth of fish will be hindered. Even they won't be (e) --- to produce. If temperature goes on rising by one or two degrees, fish may face extinction.

Fish population is not free from the (a) --- of climate change. Because of climate change the water temperature will increase causing the (b) --- of food and oxygen for fish. As a (c) --- of this fishes will lose their breeding capacity. Some of the fishes are on the (d) --- of extinction. Climate change will (e) --- the pressure of fish population.

Water is the most (a) --- place for fish. But nowadays, this (b) --- place of the fish is not safe for them (c) --- of climate change and many other reasons. All these reasons along with climate change are creating a great threat and pressure on fish population. It is high time we (d) --- pragmatic steps to save the fishes from (e) ---.
5. Fill in each gap with a suitable word based on the information of the text.
It is (a) --- from the passage that global warming is (b) --- great threat for fish population. (c) --- global warming, food production and oxygen (d) --- in water decreases. As a result, some fish may be extinct (e) ---.

Global warming is causing serious threat to fish population. It is climate change which is the cause of the (a) --- of water temperature in rivers, lakes and seas. For this reason, available food and oxygen for fish in these water (b) --- will be less than (c) ---. For the same reason, the (d) --- of fish may not be full and offspring may not be (e) ---. So the pressure on fish population is (f) --- due to climate change. Fishes are one of the world's most (g) --- biological assets. The (h) --- of people in the world eating fish as their main source of protein is 40%. In case of our (i) --- to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, the pressure on fish will be increased and consequently, people (j) --- on fish will suffer from hunger and poverty.
