第十九组 (建议用时：30分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解(2015·江西八校联考)Around the worldabout one-third of nests collapse each year.For bees and the plants they pollinate (授粉)ng because there is not one cause，but rather a thousand little cuts.The main elements include the mixed impact of pesticides (杀虫剂) applied to fieldsnutritional shortages caused by vast acreages of single-crop fields that lack diverse flowering plants; and commercial beekeeping itself，which destroys groups by moving most bees around the country multiple times each year to pollinate crops. The real issue，though，is not the volume of problems，but the interactions among them.Here we find a major lesson from the bees that we ignore our risk：the concept of synergy(协同作用), from more than 120 pesticides.Alone，each represents a benign dose (良性剂量). But together they form a poisonous soup of chemicals whose interplay (相互作用) can greatly reduce the effectiveness of bees’ immune systems. Observing the death of honeybees should warn us that our own well-being might be similarly threatened，and the widespread collapse of so many groups presents a clear message.We must demand that our regulatory authorities require studies on how exposure to low dosages of combined chemicals may affect human health before approving compounds. Bees also provide some clues to how we may build a more collaborative relationship with the services that ecosystems can provide.Bees could offer some of the pollination services needed for agriculture.People discover that crop harvests，and thus profits，are maximized if some croplands are left uncultivated for bees.Meanwhile a variety of wild plants means a healthier，more diverse bee population，which will then move to the planted fields next door in larger and more active numbers. 1．Which of the following is NOT the cause that leads to bees’ death? A．Lack of nutrition from enough diverse flowering plants. B．The pests and diseases of the bees. C．The beekeepers’ destroying without intention. D．The pesticides
