According to the reading passage, it is stated that nowadays, fishers build some artificial reefs from old metal objects and industrial materials to provide shelter for fish and thus help to increase fish population. The article expresses some benefits of this action. However, the lecturer rebutes the assumptions made in the reading passage and presents three solid reasons to challenge them.
Firstly, the reading claims that artificial reefs creates a field for fish to gather and breed so, the fish numbers that can be caught will rise up. The professor casts doubt on this point by saying that reefs attract fish to them and it makes fish to congregate in a single location. As a result, since the fish crowd is in one place, their possibility to be caught will rise. He states this approach acts conversely and fish numbers decline rather than going up.
Secondly, the article posits that by creating private artificial reefs in secret locations, small-scale fishers would have a chance to compete with large corporations in the industry.
