In an intact plant community, undisturbed by human intervention, the composition of a community is mainly a function of the climate and the type of soil. Today, such original communities are very rare—they are practically limited to national parks and reservations.
Civilization has progressively transformed the conditions determining the composition of plant communities. For several thousand years vast areas of arable land have been hoed, ploughed, harrowed and grassland has been cut or grazed. During the last decades the use of chemical substances, such as fertilizers and most recently of weed killers (herbicides) has greatly influenced the composition of weed communities in farm land.
All selective herbicides have specific ranges of activity. They control the most important weeds but not all the plants of a community. The latter profit from the new free space and from the fertilizer as much as the crop does; hence they often spread rapidly and become weeds unless another herbicide for their eradication is found.
The soil contains enormous quantities of seeds of numerous specie—up to half a million per square meters according to scientific literature—that retain their ability to germinate for decades. Thus it may occur that weeds that were hardly noticed before emerge in masses after the elimination of their competitors. Hence, the knowledge of the composition of weed communities before selective weed killers are applied is not only of scientific interest since the plant species present in the soil in the form of seeds must be considered as potential weeds. For efficient control the identification of weeds at the seedling stage, i.e. at a time when they can still be controlled, is particularly necessary; for the choice of the appropriate herbicide depends on the composition of the weed community. [br] A knowledge of the composition of a weed community______.
选项
A、is essential to the efficient control of weeds
B、may lead us to be aware of the fact that the soil contains enormous quantities of seeds of numerous species
C、helps us to have a good idea of why seeds can lie dormant for years
D、provides us with the means to identify weeds at the seedling stage
答案
A
解析
本题为推断题。从原文第四段的第4行我们可以知道:在选择出的除草剂得到应用之前,有关草类种群的知识不仅仅属于科研范畴,因为以种子的形式出现在土壤中的植物都必须被视作潜在的野草。那也就是说有关草类种群的知识是有效地控制野草的关键。所以,A为最佳答案。
