訳
News that honeybees are disappearing means more than just a fall in honey production. Many of the major crops humans eat bear fruit only when insects, honeybees among them, carry their pollen. A good number of the fruits and nuts on our tables, such as apples, almonds and strawberries, depend on insect pollination. Yet in recent decades, whole bee colonies vanishing at once have been reported around the world. Scientists cite as causes the overuse of pesticides, shifts in flowering times due to climate change, and food shortages caused by large-scale monoculture. The fact that no single cause explains it makes the problem all the harder to solve. In some regions hand pollination, with people dabbing pollen on each flower with a brush, has even appeared, but this not only costs enormous money and labour, it also cannot fully replace what insects have been doing. In the end, protecting honeybees is a matter of ( ). This is why efforts to reduce pesticide use and create spaces where diverse flowers bloom in cities and the countryside are urgent.

解説
Approach: for a topic question, read the first sentence and the last two closely, where the thesis usually sits. The opening says bee loss is about more than honey, the middle explains that crops rely on insect pollination, and the end concludes '노력이 시급한 이유가 여기에 있다'. So the topic is that bee decline threatens our food and calls for active measures – option 3. Option 1 is wrong because hand pollination '온전히 대신하지도 못한다'. Option 2 names only one of several causes, while the text stresses '어느 하나의 원인만으로 설명할 수 없다'. Option 4 is about honey – exactly what the first sentence says is not the point.

解説
Approach: read the sentences before and after the gap. The previous sentence says humans cannot replace insect pollinators; the gap starts with '결국', so it sums up the text. From the start the writer links bees to 'the fruits and nuts on our tables', so protecting bees is '우리의 식탁을 지키는' – option 1. Option 2 goes back to honey. Option 3 (controlling insect numbers) is not the writer's idea. Option 4 points the wrong way, since monoculture (fewer crop types) is one of the causes.
