练习25的第七题是选C么？ Over the last 40 years there has been a great increase not only in the number of agricultural pesticides in use but also in the care and sophistication with which they are used by farmers. Nevertheless, the proportion of agricultural crops lost to certain pests worldwide has increased over the same period, even when the pests concerned have not developed resistance to existing pesticides.
7. Which of the following, if true. best explains how improvements in pesticide use have been accompanied by greater losses to certain pests?
(A) Some dangerous but relatively ineffective pesticides common 40 years ago are no longer in widespread use.
(B) As pesticides have become increasingly pest- specific, controlling certain pests with pesticides has turned out to cost more in many cases than the value of crop losses caused by those pests.
(C) Because today's pesticides typically have more specific application conditions than did pesticides in use 40 years ago, today's farmers observe their fields more closely than did farmers 40 years ago.
(D) Certain pest-control methods that some farmers use today do not involve the use of chemical pesticides but are just as effective in eliminating insect pests as those that do.
(E) Forty years ago, much less was known about the effects of pesticides on humans and other mammalian species than is now known.
B.用农药得不偿失；C.observe their fields more closely，隐含的结果应该是杀得更多了，排除；E.农药对人类和牲畜的影响，与题目无关；答案B
