     Man, a land animal. But he is also closely tied to the sea. Throughout history the sea has served the
needs of man. The sea has provided man with food and a convenient way to travel to many parts of the
world. Today, nearly two-thirds of the world's population lives within 80 kilometers of the sea coast.
    In the modern technological world, the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive. Resources
on land are beginning to be used up. The sea, however, still can be hoped to supply many of man's needs.
    The list of riches of the sea yet to be developed by man's technology is big. Oil and gas explorations
have been carried out for nearly 30 years. Valuable amounts of minerals exist on the ocean floor ready
to be mined.
    Fish farming promises to be a good way to produce large quantities of food. The culture of fish and
shellfish (贝类动物) is an ancient skill practised in the past mainly by Oriental people, including people
in China.
    Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy. Experts believe that the warm
temperature of the ocean can be used in a way similar to the steam in a steamship. Ocean currents and
waves offer possible use as a source of energy.
    Technology is enabling man to explore ever more deeply under the sea. The development of strong,
new materials has made this possible.
The technology to harvest the sea continues to improve. Experts believe that by the year 2020 the
problems that prevent us from exploiting (开发) fully the food, minerals, and energy sources of the sea
will be largely solved.
