Millions of bees have died in South Carolina during aerial insect spraying operations that were carried out to combat the Zika virus. (3) The insect spraying over the weekend left more than 2 million bees dead on the spot in Dorchester County South Carolina, where four travel-related cases of Zika disease have been confirmed in the area. Most of the deaths came from flower town bee farm,a company in Summerville that sells bees and honey products. Juanita Stanley who owns the company said (4) the farm looks like it’s been destroyed. The farm lost about 2.5 million bees. Dorchester County officials apologized for the accidental mass killing of bees. Dorchester County is aware that some beekeepers in the area that was sprayed on Sunday lost their bee colonies. County Manager Jason Ward said in a statement: I’m not pleased that so many bees were killed.
Questions 3 and 4 are based on the news report you have just heard.
3. Why was spraying operations carried out in Dorchester County?
4. What does the news report say about flower town bee farm?
选项
A、People were concerned about the number of bees.
B、Several cases of Zika disease had been identified.
C、Two million bees were infected with disease.
D、Zika virus had destroyed some bee farms.
答案
B
解析
浏览四个选项,从选项中的bees,Zika disease,Zika virus等词可推测,此题与寨卡病毒有关。题干问的是为什么要在多尔切斯特县实施喷洒行动。新闻开头部分提到周末喷洒灭虫剂的行动使得南卡罗纳州多尔切斯特县的蜜蜂死亡数量超过200万,该地区已经确认了四例与旅行相关的寨卡病例。由此可知,在多尔切斯特县实施喷洒行动是因为这里确认了寨卡病例,故答案为B。A项(人们担心蜜蜂的数量)和D项(寨卡病毒摧毁了一些蜜蜂农场)新闻均未提及,故排除。C项(200万只蜜蜂感染了疾病)与新闻内容不符,新闻开头部分说的是200万只蜜蜂因喷洒行动而死亡,故排除。
