Q30:

Each year red-winged blackbirds stop in a certain region of Midland Province on their spring and fall migrations. In the fall, they eat a significant portion of the province’s sunflower crop. This year Midland farmers sought permits to set out small amounts of poisoned rice during the blackbirds’ spring stop in order to reduce the fall blackbird population. Some residents voiced concern that the rice could threaten certain species of rare migratory birds. Nevertheless, the wildlife agency approved the permits.


Which of the following, if true, most helps to justify the wildlife agency’s approval of the permits, given the concerns voiced by some residents?

  1. In the region where the red-winged blackbirds stop, they are the first birds to be present in the spring.
  2. The poison that farmers want to use does not kill birds but rather makes them incapable of producing viable eggs.
  3. Since rice is not raised in Midland Province, few species of birds native to the province normally eat rice.
  4. Without the permit, any farmers shown to have set out poison for the blackbirds would be heavily fined.
  5. The poison that farmers got approval to use has no taste or smell that would make it detectable by birds.

Answer: A

我认为答案应该为C,A好象应该是无关选项。(in the spring but not in the fall),请大家讨论

我觉得C是无关选项

文中是讲certain species of rare migratory birds,不是few species of birds native to the province

A的意思是,black birds是第一批过来的鸟,它们在春天把有毒的 rice吃掉

所以对后来者是没影响的

而且,在秋天,black birds少了,对向日葵的影响也少了

请指正!

是我看题不仔细了。C排除后也只能选A了。thanks !!!
