细节题
Vast plains of solar panels can help nature more than clean energy: As populations of crucial pollinators (虫媒) decline, developers have been seeding the grounds of their solar arrays (阵列) with native wildflowers. Now a five-year study published in Environmental Research Letters, confirms that this approach boosts the pollinators’ abundance and diversity—with extra benefits for surrounding farms.
From 2018 through 2022, Argonne National Laboratory landscape ecologist Leroy J. Walston and his colleagues regularly visited two such arrays covering hectares (公顷) each in southern Minnesota. The scientists recorded the number and kinds of pollinators the wildflowers attracted and found population is of bees, beetles, butterflies, moths, and more had increased on-site—even as they continued declining elsewhere in the U.S.
Humans’ pesticide use, greenhouse gas emissions and habitat destruction have caused mass pollinator die-offs. Monarch butterfly numbers, for example, have decreased by 80 percent nationwide in the past two decades, and according to the Center for Biological Diversity’s 2017 report, nearly one in four native bee species is endangered and at increasing risk of extinction. Further big losses would be disastrous for ecosystems and agriculture: 75 percent of North American plant species rely on pollinators.
The federal government’s energy goals require several million hectares for solar energy, with more than 80 percent of the projects planned for former agricultural land; seeding it this way could help save endangered pollinators.
During their study, Walston and his team watched goldenrod soldier beetles boom as their namesake flower, goldenrod bloomed around the arrays. As other flowers bloomed, a symphony of insects appeared. Native bees saw the most stunning growth, with their population increasing 20 times by the study’s end. Monarch butterflies also increased in number and flapped their dotted wings across the sites. Twice as many bees visited soybean fields close to the solar sites as fields farther away, making the nearby plots’ gains comparable to those of neighboring land enrolled in conservation programs.
The approach’s effectiveness in other parts of the country—such as the desert Southwest—remains to be seen. However, as Walston says, at least in the Midwest, “if you plant it, yeah, they’ll come.”
What does the five-year study focus on?
The number of pollinators.
","The influence of solar panels on insects.
","The effect of wildflower seeding project.
","The use of alternative clean energy.
"]细节理解题。根据第一段 “developers have been seeding the grounds of their solar arrays (阵列) with native wildflowers. Now a five-year study published in Environmental Research Letters, confirms that this approach boosts the pollinators’ abundance and diversity—with extra benefits for surrounding farms. (研发者一直在用当地野花在太阳能电池板的地面上播种。现在发表在《环境研究快报》上的一项为期五年的研究证实，这种方法增加了传粉昆虫的数量和多样性——并对周围的农场有额外的好处。)” 可知，这项为期五年的研究重点是野花播种项目的效果。故选C。
What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
Native bee species are in danger of dying out.
","Pollinator populations are decreasing at an alarming rate.
","Northern American agriculture falls victim to solar panels.
","The government is taking measures to meet the demands for solar energy.
"]段落大意题。根据第三段 “Humans’ pesticide use, greenhouse gas emissions and habitat destruction have caused mass pollinator die-offs. Monarch butterfly numbers, for example, have decreased by 80 percent nationwide in the past two decades, and according to the Center for Biological Diversity’s 2017 report, nearly one in four native bee species is endangered and at increasing risk of extinction. Further big losses would be disastrous for ecosystems and agriculture: 75 percent of North American plant species rely on pollinators. (人类的农药使用、温室气体排放和栖息地破坏导致了大量传粉昆虫的死亡。例如，在过去20年里，全国帝王蝶的数量减少了80%，根据生物多样性中心2017年的报告，近四分之一的本土蜜蜂物种濒临灭绝，灭绝风险日益增加。进一步的重大损失将对生态系统和农业造成灾难性影响：75%的北美植物物种依赖传粉昆虫。)” 可知，本段提到人类活动 (杀虫剂、温室气体排放等) 导致传粉昆虫数量急剧下降，并以帝王蝶和蜜蜂为例说明危机，本段核心是 “传粉者数量快速减少的严峻现状”，第三段主要讲的是传粉昆虫数量以惊人的速度减少。故选B。
According to paragraph 4, which of the following words best shows the characteristics of the wildflower seeding project?
Two birds with one stone.
","A breath of fresh air.
","A drop in the ocean.
","A game changer.
"]推理判断题。根据第四段 “The federal government’s energy goals require several million hectares for solar energy, with more than 80 percent of the projects planned for former agricultural land; seeding it this way could help save endangered pollinators. (联邦政府的能源目标需要数百万公顷的太阳能，超过80%的项目计划用于以前的农业用地；以这种方式播种可以帮助拯救濒临灭绝的传粉昆虫。)” 可知，野花播种项目既可以帮助拯救濒临灭绝的传粉昆虫，也可以为联邦政府的能源目标提供土地，所以一石二鸟最能描述野花播种项目的特点。故选A。
What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?
Butterflies increased more than the number of bees.
","Farmland near solar arrays benefits more than conservation land.
","This method is effective in some specific locations.
","Solar projects may have negative environmental impacts.
"]推理判断题。根据倒数第二段 “Twice as many bees visited soybean fields close to the solar sites as fields farther away, making the nearby plots’ gains comparable to those of neighboring land enrolled in conservation programs. (访问太阳能站点附近大豆田的蜜蜂数量是访问更远田地的蜜蜂数量的两倍，这使得附近田地的收益与参加保护计划的相邻土地的收益相当。)” 和最后一段 “The approach’s effectiveness in other parts of the country—such as the desert Southwest—remains to be seen. However, as Walston says, at least in the Midwest, ‘if you plant it, yeah, they’ll come.’ (这种方法在该国其他地区 (如西南部沙漠) 的有效性还有待观察。然而，正如沃尔斯顿所说，至少在中西部，‘如果你种下它，是的，它们会来的。’)” 可推知，该策略在中西部效果显著，但在西南部沙漠地区尚未验证，可得出这种方法在某些特定地点是有效的。故选C。
