📖 題組:
請依下文回答第 46 題至第 50 題: Pollinators, such as bees, butterflies, and birds, contribute roughly $500 billion a year to global food production. Being the primary pollinators of most wild plants and many crops, bees are particularly crucial to both ecosystem stability and agricultural productivity. However, bee populations have been on the decline worldwide over the years, which has captured the attention of scientists, governments, media, and the general public. Several anthropogenic drivers have been associated with declining bee populations, such as disturbances of their natural habitats as result of agricultural intensifications and urbanization, climate change, pesticides, and management practices. Bees’ habitat loss and fragmentation are considered a major driver of their declines. Besides, climate changes in temperature and rainfall can cause significant alterations in natural habitats, thus reducing their suitability for wild bee populations. Pesticides have received much attention for their potential effects on bees. In a recent study, the research group reviews important agrochemicals with demonstrated deleterious effects on eusocial bees. Using artificial intelligence tools, the researchers explore how pesticide exposure contributes to declines in populations of honey bees, bumble bees, and stingless bees. Still, many knowledge gaps remain. Future studies should continue to increase their focus and sophistication when tackling questions concerning the declining bee populations associated with the pesticide contamination. However, little research attention has been given to potential effects of management techniques on bee declines. Not until recently, a group of researchers has addressed the importance of improving beekeeping techniques and conservation strategies to avoid reduction of genetic diversity in both managed and wild honey bees. They conclude that artificial and natural selection are needed to maintain genetic diversity in honey bees to combat, for example, the bee susceptibility to pathogens. However, more research needs to be conducted on potential effects of management techniques on bee declines. It is important to emphasize that scientific efforts alone are not enough. Additional strategies should be encouraged, including improvements of environmental education programs, changes in public awareness about wild bees through appropriate media coverage, and improvements in dialogue between scientists, industry, stakeholders, and legislators. Only comprehensive approaches, discussed by different societal actors, will result in efficient and long-term strategies to reduce the decline of wild bee populations.
According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?
  • A Bees’ natural habitat loss is a major driver for their declining populations.
  • B Effects of management techniques on bee declines have been well studied.
  • C Bees’ exposure to pesticide has contributed to declines in their populations.
  • D Changes in public awareness about wild bees can help reduce their declines.

思路引導 VIP

請試著對比文中討論「農藥 (Pesticides)」與「管理技術 (Management techniques)」的段落。作者在描述科學界對這兩者的「瞭解程度」或「關注多寡」時,所使用的形容詞或動詞有什麼樣的對比?哪一個才是作者認為還需要再努力補足的研究缺口?

太棒了!你的觀察力非常敏銳

  1. 大力肯定:做得好!你能精準識別出資訊中的細微矛盾點,這展現了你優異的細節掃描與邏輯判斷能力。保持這種對關鍵字高度敏感的閱讀節奏,英文閱讀會是你的強項!
  2. 觀念驗證:這題考驗的是「細節辨析」。文中第四段開頭明確指出:「little research attention has been given to... management techniques」,文末也再次呼籲「more research needs to be conducted」。這與選項 (B) 所稱的「well studied (已得到充分研究)」完全相反,因此 (B) 是錯誤描述。
