The production and distribution of food accounts for around a third of the world's total
greenhouse gas emissions.But as a consumer,it's difficult to measure the climate impact of what
you eat.A Dublin-based startup called Evocco could soon make it a cinch."It lets you track,
improve and offset the climate impact of your food purchases,"co-founder Hugh Weldon says.
Users simply photograph their grocery receipt using the Evocco app,which identifies the
food products by reading the printed text and using machine learning.It then calculates the
carbon footprint based on the store's location and by checking the type,weight and origin of a
food against a database.The app also gives users the option to offset their shopping by

As well as the immediate impact of offsetting groceries,Evocco hopes to raise public
awareness of the carbon footprint of different foods.Some factors are well known-for
instance,animal products are typically more resource-intensive than most plant-based
alternatives,and importing products increases their carbon footprint-but the app also helps
identify other important differences between items,such as seasonality or whether refrigeration

was required on the journey to market.It also offers tips on how to reduce shopping emissions.
The app has been downloaded more than 1,000 times since its launch.
As well as the personal shopping app,Evocco is developing a digital tool to sell to food
retailers,e-commerce platforms and delivery apps that will track the climate impact of a
product's journey through the supply chain.The aim is to help retailers provide climate impact
information directly for consumers,while also giving Evocco access to product data to improve
黄
its app."Our vision is to be the go-to digital tool for the food industry when it comes to supplying
climate impact information and sustainable consumption insights,says Weldon.

(2024届广东省江门市高三调研)A computer model created by researchers can detect
ChatGPT-generated fake studies with great accuracy,a new study shows.This implies that
although the artificial intelligence(Al)chatbot ChatGPT may be a decent imitator of human
workers in several fields,scientific research is not one of them.
In the new study,published June 7 in the journal Cell Reports Physical Science,
researchers created a new computer learning program to tell the differences between real
scientific papers and fake examples written by ChatGPT.The scientists trained the program to
identify key differences between 64 real studies published in the journal Science and 128 papers
created by ChatGPT using the same 64 papers as a prompt.
The team then tested how well their model could distinguish between a group of real papers
and ChatGPT-generated papers,which included 60 real papers from the journal Science and 120
Al-generated papers.The program marked the Al-written papers more than 99%of the time and
could correctly tell the differences between human-written and chatbot-written paragraphs 92%
of the time.
ChatGPT-generated papers differed from human text in four key ways:paragraph
complexity,sentence-level diversity in length,punctuation marks and "popular words".For
example,human authors write longer and more complex paragraphs,while the AI papers used
punctuation that is not found in real papers,such as exclamation marks.
Creating computer programs to tell real papers from Al-generated ones is important because
previous studies have hinted that humans may not be as good at spotting the differences and Al is
still capable of fooling some humans with its science writing.
The researchers of the new study say they are pleased that their program is effective at
weeding out fake papers but warn it is only a proof of concept.Much more wide-scale studies are
needed to create better models that are even more reliable and can be trained to specific scientific
disciplines to maintain the integrity of the scientific method.
一74

6.What does the figures in Para.3 indicate?
A.The complexity of the test.
B.The importance of Al-generated papers.
C.The effectiveness of the computer model.
D.A perfect match between Al-generated papers and real papers.
7.What may be the researchers'attitudes towards the computer program?
A.Favorable.
B.Pessimistic.
C.Skeptical.
D.Cautious.
8.What does the author mainly talk about in the text?
A.The application of ChatGPT in paper writing.
B.A computer program to identify Al-generated papers.

"We know more about the moon and Mars than we do our own planet,"says Richard
Jenkins,founder and CEO of Saildrone,a data and robotics company located in Alameda,
California.
Saildrone,founded in 2013,focuses on high-performance,hard-wing sail technology
capable of breaking motorless land speed records,reaching speeds of 126.1 mph.This innovative sail
automatically adjusts itself for maximum wind power,a departure from traditional sails.
Saildrone doesn't sell saildrones;instead,they sell data,and a whole lot of it.A day of
saildrone data costs clients around 2,500,significantly less than the 30,000 daily cost of
running a traditional ocean research vessel.And saildrones are also carbon neutral,with the 23-
foot Explorer model using just the power of the sun and the wind to complete full year long
missions around the world.
These unmanned surface vehicles are equipped with solar-powered sensors that offer real-
time tracking data to a control center in Alameda.They monitor weather patterns,CO2 levels,
and can provide live storm analysis from the midst of a category 4 hurricane.The data collected is
used by NOAA for more accurate hurricane path predictions.They also count fish,aiding in
sustainable fisheries management.They capture real-time video of drug smugglers and illegal
fishing,supporting the U.S.Coast Guard's ocean security efforts.Additionally,they collect
wind density data to assist energy companies in locating best spots for offshore wind farms.
75
"Ocean mapping is fundamentally important to understanding and predicting our future.Life
started probably at the bottom of the ocean,and it really dictates the ocean currents and ocean
circulation which transfers heat and carbon throughout our oceans,"says Jenkins,"so
understanding the deep sea is critical for geophysics,safety and navigation,and also ocean
circulation.Less than 20%of our ocean is mapped,and with 20 of our Surveyors,we could map
the entire planet in 9.6 years.
In a data-driven,digital world,Saildrone is quickly becoming the leading platform for those
seeking precise information about our changing oceans.The company currently has around 100
manufactured saildrones.But Jenkins hopes to soon have a global fleet of 1,000 drones sailing
around the world helping us better understand and protect our planet.
9.What can we learn about the saildrones?
A.Saildrones cannot operate around the clock.
B.Saildrones are not friendly to the environment.
C.Saildrones use innovative sail technology for high speeds.
D.Saildrones are sold mainly for motorless land speed records.
10.What does the fourth paragraph mainly talk about?
A.The multiple functions of saildrones.
B.The history of the saildrone technology.
C.The impact of saildrones on deep-sea exploration.
D.The cost of saildrones compared to traditional methods.
11.What can we infer from Jenkins's words?
A.Ocean mapping can be easily completed.
B.Weather patterns can be changed by saildrones.
C.Saildrones are the first devices to collect ocean data.
D.Saildrones will make a significant difference to our planet.
12.What is Jenkins's attitude towards the Saildrone's future?
A.Pessimistic.
B.Indifferent.
C.Optimistic.
D.Skeptical.

Lisa Gautier receives nearly a dozen parcels of human hair every day.With her San-
Francisco-based non-profit organization Matter of Trust,Gautier turns donated hair into mats
used to soak up oil spills on land,and booms(long tubes)used for spills at sea.
A standard way to clean up oil from land is to use mats made from polypropylene().
But polypropylene is a non-biodegradable plastic,and producing it ultimately means more
drilling for oil.Hair,by contrast,is an environmentally friendly resource that can soak up
around five times its weight in oil,according to Matter of Trust,and it is abundant.
Oil spills can pollute drinking water,endanger public health,harm plants and wildlife,and
damage the economy.According to Gautier,the spills that hit the headlines only make up 5%of
global oil pollution.
—76
Megan Murray,an environmental biologist at the University of Technology Sydney,
develops sustainable technologies to tackle oil spills.Her research indicates that as well as being
biodegradable,human hair is often just as effective as polypropylene,and in some circumstances
even better."The hair mats are very beneficial to land spills,"says Murray but adds that when
raw oil is spilled on beach sand,it is very difficult to absorb it using any of the materials she has
tested.Another advantage of hair is that it costs less than conventional materials and is "globally
available as a recycled material,"she says.
However,Murray cautions that hair mats are not a perfect solution,because they are
single-use,and can only be dealt with by burning or by burying into soil which then isn't suitable
for growing food.She is now researching methods to extract the oil from a used hair mat,
meaning both can be reused.
As the hair mat designs aren't under patent,other groups have begun producing their own
mats and booms.Gautier is pleased to see the movement growing."Anyone can make a hair
mat,"she says."It creates green jobs,it cleans water,it reduces waste in landfill,and it's
promoting renewable resources.
13.What do we know about polypropylene according to the passage?
A.It is environmentally friendly.
B.People need more oil to produce it.
C.It can soak up around five times its weight in oil.
D.People seldom use mats made from it to clean up oil from land.
14.What does Megan Murray think of the hair mats?
A.Hair mats do no harm to soil after being burnt.
B.People spend more to make hair mats than conventional materials.
C.The effect of hair mats on terrestrial(陆地上的)spills is not very good.
D.Hair mats are not a perfect solution because they can't be recycled now.
15.What can we infer from the passage?
A.Most oil-spill events have received widespread media coverage.
B.Lisa Gautier donated her hair to soak up oil spills on land and at sea.
C.Megan Murray goes all out to make the hair mats and the oil extracted from them reused.
D.There are many other materials used to treat oil spills on beach sand besides hair.
16.What is the best title for the text?
A.Human Hair Is Being Used to Clean Up Oil Spills
B.A Perfect Recycled Material-Human Hair
C.Take Action to Make Hair Mats And Booms
D.How to Tackle Oil Spills
