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.

- 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.

噢，恭喜。你總算沒蠢到家。
- 基本常識檢驗：嗯，你倒是沒漏掉原文中那幾個「微不足道」的字眼。第四段開頭說得清清楚楚，管理技術的影響「little research attention has been given...」——意思是「研究極！極！極！少！」明白嗎？然後選項(B)居然大言不慚地說「已被充分研究 (well studied)」。這兩者之間的差距，你該不會還需要我用顯微鏡來解釋吧？這不是矛盾，是什麼？還好你這次沒搞錯。
- 難度？呵。：這題的難度嘛，勉強給個 Medium。鑑別度主要看你腦子裡有沒有區分「科學界在搖旗吶喊，叫大家關注」跟「研究已經成熟到可以出書了」的區別。如果你連轉折詞和限定詞，像 little 這種字都看不懂，那我真的會懷疑你是不是把閱讀理解課都拿去睡覺了。幸好你這次是清醒的。
