Essay topics:

Throughout the world's oceans, hard structures such as natural reefs provide ideal marine habitats. Reefs provide hard surfaces to which plants, coral and sponges can attach, and thereby provide food and shelter for many types of fish. Recently, workers in the fishing industry have tried to increase the amount of suitable habitat for fish by construction artificial reefs from old metal objects and industrial materials and placing them in coastal waters. Artificial reefs have several benefits.

Many fishers believe that by giving fish more places to gather and reproduce, artificial reefs have increased the populations of some species of fish. For example, a report from one extensive artificial reef program in the Gulf of Mexico shows that the number of red snapper fish harvested in the area has increased by as much as ten times compared with harvests a century ago. The increases in the number of fish caught began after the start of the artificial reef program.

Artificial reefs can also improve the economic competitiveness of small-scale fishers. This is because small-scale fishers are able to create their own private artificial reefs in secret locations only they know. Currently, small-scale fishers struggle to compete with larger corporations because fishing grounds are limited in number and most are known to everyone. Creating fishing areas known only to the fishers who make them will help independent fishers support themselves and their local communities.

Finally, artificial reefs are a good way to recycle materials no longer needed for other purposes. Artificial reefs can be made from old cars and other objects that are otherwise difficult to dispose of. Once these materials have been cleaned to ensure that no harmful chemicals remain, they can be placed in the ocean to serve as reefs for marine life. Artificial reefs thus provide a relatively inexpensive, environmentally friendly way to reuse materials.

The listening opposes the idea raised in the passage that artificial reefs are beneficial to the marine environment in several ways, and points out the problems of each point mentioned in the article with convincing evidence.
Firstly, while the passage states that the population of certain species of fish will increase by introducing artificial reefs, the professor argues that it will lead to an opposite effect in reality since artificial reefs attract fish to a single spot so that they can be easily caught by other fish. Because the same species of fish tend to gather together in one place, a large number of them will be eaten and cause a decline in their species.
Secondly, the article mentions that by constructing artificial reefs, the economic competitiveness of small-scale fishers will be promoted because such areas containing a large amount of fish are exclusively known to themselves, without having to compete against big corporations. However, the professor in the listening rebuts that these places will not remain unknown to others for a long period, and eventually, these fish will be revealed and small-scale fishers will lose competitiveness at that time.
Finally, the author of the passage says that it is a perfect approach to recycle materials that are not useful anymore as artificial reefs, after harmful chemicals are cleaned. But the professor argues that they will still cause environmental damage to the sea. To illustrate his point, he further points out that a special material made from car tires is often used to create artificial reefs. If such reefs encounter a current, it will crash into the sea floor and result in damage to marine plants along with other lives.
