完形填空·兼考文体——说明文 A (2023·日照一模)A 17-year-old teenager, Anika Puri, has invented a low-cost tool to spot elephant poachers (偷猎者) in real time. She won the 2022 Peggy Scripps Award for Science Communication for her model of a machine-learning-driven software that __1__ movement patterns in thermal videos of humans and elephants. “I'm especially excited by the __2__ focusing on endangered species and environmental science，” Puri said. During a recent trip to India, Puri realized that elephants were still being __3__ for their tusks (牙). “I was quite taken aback，” Puri said. “Because I always thought, ‘well, poaching is __4__； how come it really is still such a big __5__？’” Over the next two years, Puri __6__ the software EISa (short for elephant savior).
