[对应学生用书P565] Ⅰ.阅读理解 A While facial recognition technology continues to promote many aspects of human life，it's now being applied to aid the protection of giant pandas，Xinhua News Agency reported on 6 January 2022. A nature reserve has built an AI­enabled video monitoring system to better protect giant pandas. Equipped with 300 infrared (红外线的) cameras，the monitoring system helps ensure the health and safety of 110 wild giant pandas there.It was put into operation two years ago，and has captured numerous photos and videos of pandas engaged in activities such as eating，resting and fighting for mates.It provides scientific data to help us grasp pandas' living conditions and establish conservation strategies.More importantly，it achieves real­time monitoring of the reserve so that we can discern the threats to the wildlife as early as possible. A recent study found the facial recognition system can automatically recognize various wild animals caught in infrared cameras，allowing researchers to collect data on giant pandas while staying indoors.It's shown that by equipping the reserve with the AI­aided system to store the filed photos of giant pandas，we obtain a 98% success rate for species recognition. Its success rate of recognizing other wild animals can top 80%.In 2021 alone，this monitoring system captured 2，896 photos of giant pandas and other rare animals and filmed 3，218 seconds of footage，showcasing the reserve's sound ecological environment as well as a gradual rise in panda population there. Head of the reserve's administration，Liu Xingming，said researchers used the system not only to observe the dynamics and health of the giant panda population but also to learn about changes in the natural surroundings of their habitat.“The monitoring system has enabled the systematic，scientific，and intelligent conservation of wildlife，”he added.“However，it is expected to be further improved and optimized in the near future.” [语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述了面部识别技术被用于保护大熊猫，并初步取得了良好的效果。 1．What does the underlined word“discern”mean in paragraph 2? A．Solve. B．Pose. C．Attach. D．Detect. 解析　D　词义猜测题。画线词所在句出现在结果状语从句中，根据画线词前的“it achieves real­time monitoring of the reserve”并结合常识可以推测，实时监测可以尽早发现对野生动物的威胁，故画线词的意思应该为“察觉，识别”，D项与画线词的意义最为接近。故选D。 2．What can be inferred about the new technology from the study? A．It precisely recognizes any species. B．It makes panda population rise rapidly. C．It contributes to species data collection. D．It understands pandas' facial appearance. 解析　C　推理判断题。根据第三段中的“allowing researchers to collect data on giant pandas while staying indoors”并结合下文中给出的数据可知，研究表明新技术有助于物种数据收集，故选C。 3．What is Liu Xingming's attitude to the facial recognition monitoring system? A．Critical. B．Objective. C．Ambiguous. D．Conservative. 解析　B　观点态度题。根据最后一段中Liu Xingming所说的话“The monitoring system has enabled...conservation of wildlife”“However，it is expected to be further improved and optimized”可知，Liu Xingming对于面部识别监测系统持客观态度，故B项正确。 4．Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A．Panda Facial Recognition Using the Database B．Functions of Facial Recognition Technology C．AI Technology for Better Panda Protection D．A Breakthrough in the Video Monitoring System 解析　C　主旨大意题。根据文章内容尤其是第一段中的“While facial recognition technology...the protection of giant pandas”可知，本文主要讲述了面部识别技术被用于帮助保护大熊猫，故C项适合作本文的标题。 B (2023·重庆联考)Calling vegetables and fruits“ugly”can be a recipe for sales success，according to a new study. A French supermarket chain made the international headlines when it began marketing misshapen produce as the“ugly” in 2014.Since then，food stores around the world have launched campaigns to sell“imperfect produce”．Some have been successful，while others haven't—but until now，researchers haven't adequately explained why consumers rejected imperfect produce，or what marketing approach was most likely to whet_their_appetites． The researchers conducted seven studies that tested the effects of“ugly”labeling by having participants purchase produce at a farmer's market and online，and by examining people's impressions about misshapen foods.Interestingly，they found that consumers expected the imperfect produce to be less tasty and even less nutritious than traditionally more attractive foods. But it's not all bad news for unattractive foods.The researchers also found that when the produce is labeled as “ugly”，consumer hesitancy disappears，and it's not because of humor or originality.Calling items“ugly”signals to consumers that the only difference between items is appearance which makes them aware of their bias (偏见) and significantly increases their willingness to buy the less attractive produce. “We're pointing to the source of the rejection，” explains John Meredith，the lead researcher.“It makes people aware of the limited nature of their objection to the unattractive produce and makes it clear to consumers that there are no other problems in the produce other than attractiveness.” The research also found consumers spent more on the misshapen produce labeled as “ugly” instead of “imperfect”．And even though the ugly produce was sold at a 25 percent discount，it turned out to be more profitable for sellers，as the cost of acquiring the ugly produce was lower.However，if the price reduction was too sharp，participants expected the “ugly” foods to be of low quality. [语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。一项新研究发现，丑水果和丑蔬菜更易销售。 5．What is the new study mainly about? A．Food quality. B．Consumer demand. C．Marketing approaches. D．Bias against appearance. 解析　C　推理判断题。根据全文内容尤其是第一段中的“Calling vegetables and fruits ‘ugly’ can be a recipe for sales success”可知，新的研究结果显示将蔬菜和水果叫成“丑陋的”是销售成功的秘诀，据此可以推断，新的研究主要关注的是营销手段，故选C。 6．What does the underlined phrase“whet their appetites”in paragraph 2 refer to? A．Satisfy their need to eat better. B．Stimulate their desire to buy. C．Encourage them to risk selling produce. D．Raise their concerns about nutrition. 解析　B　词义猜测题。根据语境可知，直到现在研究者还未充分解释为什么消费者拒绝不完美产品，或什么样的营销方法最有可能会让顾客愿意购买，故B项“刺激他们的购买欲望”与画线短语的意义最为接近。whet“刺激……的欲望，增强……的兴趣”。故选B。 7．Why are people willing to buy ugly­labeled produce without hesitation? A．They are happy to spend less and have more. B．They are curious about the special shapes of produce. C．They are attracted by the funny and creative idea of labeling. D．They are led to believe ugly produce has no quality problems. 解析　D　细节理解题。根据第五段中的“makes it clear to consumers that there are no other problems in the produce other than attractiveness”可知，顾客之所以愿意购买长得丑的蔬果是因为这样的做法让他们认为除了长得丑，这些蔬果没有别的问题，故选D。 8．Which way helps food sellers make more profit according to the study? A．Call the ugly produce“ugly”． B．Label the ugly produce“imperfect”． C．Group the produce by its attractiveness. D．Price the ugly produce at a sharp discount. 解析　A　细节理解题。根据首段和最后一段中的“even though the ugly produce...more profitable for sellers”可知，对销售者而言，丑蔬果比别的产品更赢利，故选A。 Ⅱ.七选五 Many people lead busy lives and think they barely have time to work out every day. __1__ They are short workouts that often involve high­intensity(高强度的)exercises.Here we explore some reasons for doing micro workouts. Require Less of a Time Commitment Committing to exercising for a certain amount of time per week can be difficult，especially when you do not have the time or motivation to work out for an extended period.Micro workouts are good alternatives.They take up only 10 to 30 minutes of your day.Many people spend much longer scrolling through social media each day. __2__ Make Scheduling Workouts Easier It can be challenging to commit the time needed to exercise every day，but it can also be hard to fit a workout into a tight schedule.However，a study suggests that it may be possible. __3__ For example，walking your dog，using the stairs，parking farther away from a destination，or walking during your lunch break are all ways you can try. Need No Equipment Investing in expensive home gym equipment can be a real burden.When you decide to do micro workouts，though，you don't need a bunch of equipment. __4__ For example，you may choose to do steps on your stairs，run on the spot，or even do some star jumps.Since you can choose what type of workout you'd prefer to do，it means that you can exercise whenever you please. __5__ Now that you know all about micro workouts，you can add them to your day.Get as creative as you please and think about the types of movements that suit you.You never know—it might just boost your health and wellness. A．Ready to get moving? B．You just fit it into your routine. C．Fitness should be simple and convenient. D．So they should be a relatively easy time commitment.
