3.回答问题。问我们怎样能保护鱼类？根据文中with modern fishing methods(方法) , more and more fish are caught.和We realize that if rivers are polluted with waste products from factories, fish will die.这些情况应该是禁止做的，故答案1,Don’t take too many fish from rivers and the sea. 2,Stop polluting rivers and the sea with waste products from factories.

4.

5.主旨题。通读全文可知本文主要讲保护环境，所以答案为In a word ,It is important to protect our environment.
