江苏省南京师范大学附属中学2021-2022学年高一下学期6月月考英语试题

2021-2022学年高一下学期南师附中6月月考 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分26分） 第一节（共8小题；每小题2分，满分16分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Artificial intelligence (AI) technology has been widely applied in a national park in Northwest China to track snow leopards inhabiting the region. The Al-aided digital toolbox can automatically(自动地) distinguish the species in the Qilian Mountains National Park, Gansu province, from other wildlife, using images captured by infrared cameras(红外相机). The technology, jointly developed by Chinese Internet giant Tencent, the World Wild Fund and One Planet Foundation, can thus improve data processing efficiency. Located at around 3, 500 meters above sea level, the Qilian Mountains with vast stretches of bare rocks reaching from the grass provide a favorable hideaway shelter for the snow leopards. Though more than 200 cameras have been put in the region, sorting out relevant information had not been easy for researchers. “For conducting further studies on the population, distribution and activities of the snow leopards, a flagship species in the region, the cameras would capture hundreds of thousands of video clips and photos every quarter,” said Ma Duifang with the administration bureau of the park's Gansu section. “Even a slight movement in the environment, such as a mild breeze blowing over the grass, can activate the cameras. Sometimes, curious wildlife bumps into the device triggering the shutter(触发快门), and the cameras take pictures of mere clouds,” Ma added. Ma and his colleagues had to go through each video frame by frame(逐帧地). The information of species that appeared on the images also required human input, so it often took them several weeks to complete such tasks. Tencent’s engineering team has independently developed a species recognition algorithm(算法) by means of transfer leaning and automatic data enhancement. Thanks to Al technologies, researchers in the Qilian Mountains National Park no longer need to work like mad in search of leopards hiding out
