denersleavetheirplantsaloneattheendofthesummerinsteadofcuttingthem.Thatway,thebeeswillhaveaplacetoliveoverthewinter.”可知,官员们还建议园丁们在夏末的时候不要修剪植物,而是将它们留在园中。这样,蜜蜂就有地方过冬了。由此推知,定期剪植物对锈迹大黄蜂是有害的。故选D项。26.C推理推断题。依据第三段中的“Theinsectsdirectlyfertilisemanykindsoffruitandvegetablecrops.Andtheyfertilisegraincropsusedtofeedcattleandmilkcows.Itcostsbillionsofdollarstoduplicatethejobthebeesdoforfree.”可知,这些昆虫干脆给很多水果和蔬菜作物施肥,它们还为喂牛和奶牛的谷物施肥,复制蜜蜂这些免费的工作要花费数十亿美元。由此推知,锈迹大黄蜂对土地的主子是有益的。故选C项。27.A推理推断题。依据最终一段第一句“TheFishandWildlifeServicesaystherustypatchedbumblebeewasaddedtotheendangeredspecieslistpartlybecauseofhabitatloss.”可知,鱼类和野生动物管理局说锈迹大黄蜂被列入濒危物种名单,部分缘由是栖息地丢失。由此可知,本文主要说明大黄蜂被加入了美国濒危物种名单。故选A项。【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了马尔代夫遇到海平面上升引起的生存危机以及各方为对抗海平面上升而做出的努力。28.B细微环节理解题。依据文章第一段中的“Buttherisingsealevelandthecarbonpollutioncausingwarmingoceansarethreateningtheirexistence.”可知,海平面上升和碳污染威逼着马尔代夫。故选B项。29.C细微环节理解题。依据第四段第一句“They’realsobuildingupislandssuchastheHulhumale.”以及第三、四句“Morethan40,000peoplelivethere.Theplanistohouse240,000,providingnewopportunitiesforjobs.”可知,这座岛屿正在建立中,现在有4万多人住在这里,安排容纳24万人。C项“240,000peopleliveontheHulhumalenow.”与文中内容不符,表述错误。30.A推理推断题。依据文章末段第一句“‘Climatechangeishappening,butwearenotleavingtheMaldivestothesea,’saidEnvironmentMinisterThoriqIbrahim.”可推知,当地政府正在实行一些措施爱护马尔代夫。故选A项。31.D主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了马尔代夫遇到的海平面上升造成的生存危机,以及各方为对抗海平面上升而做出的努力。D项“TheMaldivesandTheirFightAgainsttheRisingSea
