honey.Honey, shockingly，does not exist for human consumption；it is essential to the insects.Honeybees store honey in their hives (蜂箱)in order for the bees to have energy for their flight muscles and for heating the hives during the winter period.They collect pollen(花粉)which supplies protein for young bees to grow.According to National Honey Board，the increased production and quality of agricultural crops as a result of honeybee pollination are valued at more than $14.6 billion per year.These insects are responsible for over 70 of the fruits and vegetables we eat today，including apples，grapes，coffee, beans，and broccoli.So if they are so valuable to agriculture，why do they keep dying off？A key suspect seems to be pesticides(農(nóng)藥)Honeybees who are exposed to pesticides

a few nurse bees to care for the remaining immature bees and the queen.There are several other causes of the decline of bees，including the destruction of natural habitats，like woodlands，forests，and other habitats for bees.Climate change is also a factor in the decline of the wild bee population.Actually，there are a variety of methods to help the bee population grow.One way is to start your own

insects are responsible for over 70 of the fruits and vegetables we eat today，including apples，grapes，coffee，beans, and broccoli.分析：本句為主從復(fù)合句，句中we eat today為省略了that的定語從句，修飾先行詞the fruits and vegetables。譯文：這些昆蟲對我們?nèi)缃袼秤玫某^70種的水果和蔬菜負(fù)責(zé)，包括蘋果、葡萄、咖啡、豆類和西蘭花。1D考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段的第三句“Honeybees store honey in their hives(蜂箱)in order for the bees to have energy for their flight muscles and for heating the hives during the winter period”可知，蜜蜂儲藏蜂蜜是為了增強(qiáng)飛行肌肉的力量，在冬天為蜂箱加熱，故D項(xiàng)正確。2C考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第三段的“These insects are responsible for over 70 of the fruits and vegetables we eat today，including apples，grapes，coffee，beans，and broccoli”可知，該段提及蘋果和豆類旨在說明蜜蜂對水果和蔬菜的重要作用，故C項(xiàng)正確。3B考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第四段的“Honeybees who are exposed to pesticides.And that's why the majority of worker bees disappear”可知，農(nóng)藥的濫用導(dǎo)致了工蜂離開蜂箱，故B項(xiàng)正確。4A考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第五段的第一、二句“Actually，there are a variety of methods to help the bee population grow.One way is to start your own organic garden by planting bee­friendly plants”可知，該段主要介紹了幫助蜜蜂增加數(shù)量的方法之一：種植對蜜蜂無害的植物。據(jù)此可以推斷，下文將介紹其他的幫助增加蜜蜂數(shù)量的方法，故A項(xiàng)正確。二、單句語法填空1Some people say that classical music _(associate) only with old people.答案：is associatedbe associated with . “與有關(guān)”。2Though we are living a better life, I can't bear _(see) food thrown away.答案：seeingcan't bear doing . “不能忍受做某事”。3What

driving test next week.答案：expectation由空前的冠詞可知應(yīng)填名詞。7In my opinion, only by facing difficulties bravely and _ (seize) opportunities can one succeed.答案：seizing該句為“only狀語”位于句首引起倒裝的句式。face與seize為and連接的兩個(gè)并列成分，且均作by的賓語，故由facing可知應(yīng)填seizing。8It was not until she got home _ Jennifer realized she had lost her keys.答案：that該句為含有not until的強(qiáng)調(diào)句。由該句型“It is/wasnot until .that其他”可知，應(yīng)填that。9She _(tap) me on the shoulder but I didn't feel it.答案：tapped由but連接并列成分可知，設(shè)空處動(dòng)詞在句中作謂語；且后面并列句的謂語為didn't .，所以空格處也應(yīng)用一般過去時(shí)，應(yīng)填tapped。10Prices of daily goods _ (buy) through a puter can be lower than store prices.答案：bought過去分詞短語在句中作后置定語修飾goods。三、完形填空。Not many people can say they've been hit
