Unit 4 Wildlife Protection 阅读理解(2018安徽合肥高三质检)Bees play a vital role in the world. Unfortunately, bees are dying by the second. The main purpose of bees is to make 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(农药). Honeybees who are exposed to pesticides result in the damage to their neurological(神经系统的) functions, specifically memory or behavior. And thats why the majority of worker bees disappear and leave behind a queen, plenty of food and 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 organic garden by planting beefriendly plants. Pesticides are used in both industrial practices and even in your home, so it is best to find organic seeds and weed killers.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。蜜蜂在生物世界里起着重要的作用，但是由于农药的滥用，蜜蜂正在大批死亡。本文给出了增加蜜蜂数量的方法和建议。1Why do honeybees store honey in their hives?ATo provide enough honey for humans to consume.BTo draw protein out of honey for young bees.CTo help attract other insects and make hives stronger.DTo strengthen bee muscles and heat hives in winter.D解析：细节理解题。根据第二段的第三句“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，蜜蜂储藏蜂蜜是为了增强飞行肌肉的力量，在冬天为蜂箱加热，故D项正确。2Apples and beans are mentioned in the third paragraph to show that Abees supply human beings with basic foodBbees mainly live on these agricultural cropsCbees are of great importance to fruits and vegetablesDbees can bring in more money for farmers every yearC解析：细节理解题。根据第三段的“These insects are responsible for over 70 of the fruits and vegetables we eat today, including apples, grapes, coffee, beans, and broccoli.”可知，该段提及苹果和豆类旨在说明蜜蜂对水果和蔬菜的重要作用，故C项正确。3What is most likely to cause the worker bees to leave their hives behind?AThe lack of food.BThe abuse of pesticides.CThe fighting among bees.DThe destruction of the habitats.B解析：细节理解题。根据第四段的“Honeybees who are exposed to pesticides.And thats why the majority of worker bees disappear”可知，农药的滥用导致了工蜂离开蜂箱，故B项正确。4What would the author probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?AAnother way to save bees.BOther tips for choosing seeds.CMore methods to plant green organic fruits.DCauses of the decline in the wild bee population.A解析：推理判断题。根据第五段的第一、二句“Actually, there are a variety of methods to help the bee population grow.
