41、现在完成进行时；由该句主语Honeybee populations可知，主语为复数形式，谓语动词也应用复数形式，故填have decreased或have been decreasing。2worse考查形容词的比较级。上文提到几十年来，美国蜜蜂的数量一直在大幅度减少，此处表示某种杀虫剂可能会使情况变得更糟，故填worse。3an考查冠词。play a role in.意为“在中起作用”，role是可数名词，其定语important的发音以元音音素开头，故填an。4why考查连接词。分析句子结构可知，空处引导宾语从句，作know的宾语；又根据语境可知，此处表示科学家不能确定这一情况发生的原因。
42、空处在从句中作原因状语，故填why。5are used考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。分析句子结构可知，关系代词that指代先行词types of pesticides，在从句中作主语，为复数形式，故谓语动词用复数形式；此处描述的是客观情况，应用一般现在时；且use与主语是被动关系，故此处应用被动语态，故填are used。6to stick考查动词不定式。appear to do sth.是固定用法，意为“似乎做某事”。此处表示这些杀虫剂似乎会在环境中滞留。7for考查介词。根据语境并分析句子结构可知，此处表示对农民来说一项持续存在的挑战，故填for。8protecting考查动名词。由空前
43、的并列连词“while”可知，此处与“finding ways to keep other insects away”并列作宾语，故用protect的动名词形式protecting。9unlikely考查词性转换。根据该句中的“but there are a number of organizations trying to help honeybees”可知，美国农业部表示，不太可能有一个神奇的解决方案，故填unlikely。10solution考查名词。空前的magic是形容词，修饰名词，其前又有数词one，故此处应用名词单数形式solution。.应用文写作(2020山东青岛三模)假定你
