Line The argument for “monetizing”—or putting a
monetary value on—ecosystem functions may be
stated thus: Concern about the depletion of natural
resources is widespread, but this concern, in the
(5) absence of an economic argument for conservation,
has not translated into significant conservational
progress. Some critics blame this impasse on
environmentalists, whom they believe fail to address
the economic issues of environmental degradation.
(10) Conservation can appear unprofitable when compared
with the economic returns derived from converting
natural assets (pristine coastlines, for example) into
explicitly commercial ones (such as resort hotels).
But according to David Pearce, that illusion stems
(15) from the fact that “services” provided by ecological
systems are not traded on the commodities market,
and thus have no readily quantifiable value. To
remedy this, says Pearce, one has to show that all
ecosystems have economic value—indeed, that all
(20) ecological services are economic services. Tourists
visiting wildlife preserves, for example, create
jobs and generate income for national economies;
undisturbed forests and wetlands regulate water
runoff and act as water-purifying systems, saving
(25) millions of dollars worth of damage to property
and to marine ecosystems. In Gretchen Daily’s
view, monetization, while unpopular with many
environmentalists, reflects the dominant role that
economic considerations play in human behavior,
(30) and the expression of economic value in a common
currency helps inform environmental decision-making
processes.

题目：

Which of the following can be inferred from the passage concerning the environmentalists mentioned in line 8?

选项:

A、They are organized in opposition to the generation of income produced by the sale of ecological services.

C、They have sometimes been charged with failing to use a particular strategy in their pursuit of conservational goals.
D、They have been in the forefront of publicizing the extent of worldwide environmental degradation.
E、They define environmental progress differently and more conservatively than do other organized groups of environmentalists.

Art historian: Unlike many artistic traditions that sought to depict plants native to the local area in a seasonally appropriate way (for example, depicting scenes of spring with the plants in the appropriate stages of development for that season), seventeenth-century Dutch artists specializing in flower paintings almost exclusively chose to depict exotic species of flowers from outside the local area. Painting such species was worthwhile primarily because the art-buying public had developed a strong preference for images of the exotic. The great botanical centers of the time gave the artists direct access to such flowers, which the artists would freely combine in a single painting, regardless of whether the combined species occurred together in the wild, and depicted each in full bloom, regardless of whether those species bloomed at the same time in nature.

Statement: The art historian makes the point that the species of flowers these Dutch artists chose to paint were 1 largely because the species were 2 .

Select for 1 and for 2 the options that complete the statement so that it is most strongly supported by the information provided. Make only two selections, one in each column.

Tiger beetles are such fast runners that they can capture virtually any nonflying insect.  However, when running toward an insect, the beetles intermittently stop, and then, a moment later, resume their attack.  Perhaps they cannot maintain their pace and must pause for a moment's rest; but an alternative hypothesis is that while running tiger beetles are unable to process the resulting rapidly changing visual information, and so quickly go blind and stop.
 
Which of the following, if discovered in experiments using artificially moved prey insects, would support one of the two hypotheses and undermine the other?
