Empty hives are causing a lot of worry about some important food crops.Bees give us a lot more than delicious honey. They are pollinators(授粉昆虫)they enable plants to produce the fruits and nuts we enjoy
14、 by carrying pollen from one plant or flower to the next. The wind pollinates oats, corn, and wheat, but many other plants (like apple and cherry trees and melon vines) depend on insects, bats, and birds. In the U.

16、 so many bees dying.Researchers at government and university labs all over the country are trying to figure out why so many bees are dying. However, bees are hard to study.

31、A。3D上文提到他们已经爬上山顶，现在是在下山，故答案选D。4BJoe受伤了，如果Simon不顾及Joe，他会安然返回，而且后文提到Simon决定冒险，故答案选B。5D在困难的情况下Simon带上受伤的同伴是在冒着生命的危险，答案选D。6C从上文内容可知他们是在下山，所以选C。7D根据前面内容可知，Joe受伤就是一个麻烦事了，所以天气的恶劣对他们来说是另一个麻烦，选D。8A由于恶劣的天气，他们看不清楚也听不清楚，因而Simon错误地把Joe用绳子放到了悬崖边，答案选A。9D因为Joe受了伤，而又是在悬崖边，所以对于Joe来说爬上来是不可能的，Simon也不可能下去救他，选D。10B从故事内容可知，Simon是在用绳子把Joe往山下送，所以能影响到Simon的是Joe的重量，选B。11A根据语境判断，Simon坚持到最后，不忍心放弃他的同伴，答案选A。12C根据下文内容可知，他终于做出了放弃朋友的决定。13B空前提到他割掉绳子，所以Joe是摔了下去。14A从下文可知Joe成功的爬回营地，活了下来。15C因为Joe受伤了，所以是慢慢移动着。16B此处指距离所以用away。17D最后可知他回到营地了，选D。18A在那种情况下，他以为Joe会死掉，选A。19C根据后文可知，他又在那里呆了几天，所以没立即回去。20B从上文可知，他没想到Joe会活着爬回来，所以不相信。
