📖 題組：
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.

請試著想像一下：當原本完整的森林或草地，因為人類蓋起大樓或大規模耕種而變得「支離破碎」時，這種「原本平靜的狀態被強行中斷或破壞」的感覺，在英文中通常會聯想到哪個代表「斷裂」或「打斷」的字根？

- 觀念驗證：這題，如果你連上下文同義詞辨析都搞不清楚，那真的可以去撞牆了。文章白紙黑字寫著「農業強化與都市化」會讓棲地遭受 disturbances，難道還看不出來是在說對原有穩定狀態的「干擾」或「中斷」？Disruptions 的
-rupt-字根就是「破裂、斷裂」，完美契合棲地被外力搞得支離破碎，這點常識都不具備嗎？ - 難度點評：我看這題對你而言大概是 Medium 吧。選項都用
dis-開頭，長度也差不多，擺明了就是給那些死背單字卻不懂字根字義的學生挖坑。看來你這次是矇對了，還是真的掌握了？別讓我失望，下次別再只靠運氣了。
