Explanation:
In general, you can include credible sources by quoting, paraphrasing, or summarizing this. Additionally, it is recommended to paraphrase or summarize the information if the information is general or can be restated without losing its essence. On the opposite, you should quote if the wording is unique, which means using your own words will affect the essence of the information, and if the piece of evidence directly supports the main argument.
According to this, in the source presented it recommended Mirai quotes the second sentence because this directly supports her main argument about the effects of the decline in the bees population. Also, the wording on it is unique and would be difficult to replace. For example, the expression "the nation's agricultural economy will suffer losses as great as those in the bee population" would lose its argumentative strength unique style if it is paraphrased or summarized.
