根据第二段中第三句话“The algae inside corals’ tissues (组织) make use of the light to generate energy,and that energy is then transferred to the coral animal host. (珊瑚的组织内的藻类用光产生能量,之后能量被转移到珊瑚虫宿主身上)”可知,珊瑚组织内的藻类作用是利用光产生珊瑚虫宿主需要的能量...
The researchers replicated (复制) coral structure so well that the algae grew very quickly—up to 100 times more densely than they normally grow in the lab. The 3D-printed creation could be used as a medium to grow algae to produce bioenergy and also as a tool for studying the coral-alga...

The algae uses some of this light to make food for the coral.(健康的未白化的珊瑚依靠藻类吸收阳光。藻类利用一些光线为珊瑚提供食物)”可知,这里讲的是藻类对珊瑚的作用,划线单词It指代的上文提到的The algae。故选B项。【小题4】主旨大意题。文章主要讲述了珊瑚的“彩色白化”现象及为什么会发生这种现象。
In 1998, when sea surface temperatures were the highest in recorded history, coral reefs around the world suffered the most severe bleaching. It is estimated that even under the best of conditions, many of these coral reefs will need decades to recover....

Interaction between the El Nio and Indian Ocean dipole ocean–atmosphere quasi-periodic oscillations produced one of the warmest seawater temperatures on record in 1998. During the warm northeast monsoon in March and April, Kenya's shallow coral reefs experienced water temperatures between 30 and 31°...
珊瑚的细胞内长有海藻 Corals have algae, living in their cells. 通过光合作用 它们能为珊瑚提供食物 As these photosynthesise, they produce food for the coral. 但过强的紫外线会伤害它们 But too much ultraviolet light can damage them 因此珊瑚需要自我保护 so the corals protect themselves. 这种特殊的...
Without the algae, the coral loses its main food source and can die.(海洋变暖会导致珊瑚白化。当珊瑚,即称为息肉的微小动物群落,失去了体内的有色藻类,变成完全白色时,就会发生白化。如果没有藻类,珊瑚就会失去主要的食物来源,并可能死亡。)”可知,日益变暖的海洋引起珊瑚白化,但根本原因是当生存在珊瑚体内的...
