Ⅳ.阅读理解
(2024·淄博高一期末)The dry land in Gir National Park and Wildlife Preserve,located near India western tip,is the proud—and only—home of the Asiatic lion.By the early 1900s,however,their populations had decreased for home loss and hunting,leaving fewer than 50 known individuals alive.Though their numbers have risen over the past several decades—climbing to around 670 in 2020,a successful story—the lions are still considered endangered.
One of the biggest challenges to keep the lions' future is to track them,a hard work.Some animals,like tigers and zebras,have special coat patterns(图案) that provide useful marks to the researchers.But for the Asiatic lions,researchers must look elsewhere.
In 2019,Banerjee,who worked for Indias National Tiger Conservation Authority,developed an AI system to recognize the lions with high accuracy(精确度).The AI program,SIMBA,has been applied in practice.“It will be a fantastic tool for longterm lion monitoring,” says Banerjee.He adds,“It could help forest officials arrive at a more accurate estimate(评估) of Gir's lion population.In a few years,the group will have a rich collection of information—how many lions are male,female,how many will bear babies and how many are dead.”
Despite the advantages,Banerjee also adds his worries.He suggests certain rules be made to prevent main information from being stolen.“Where tools like SIMBA really shine,”he says,“is in helping researchers develop monitoring plans that are keys to the protection of atrisk animals.Otherwise,all your efforts will be in vain.”
1.What is the greatest difficulty in protecting Asiatic lions?
A.Stopping them from being killed.
B.Keeping track of them.
C.Protecting their living environment.
D.Increasing their population.
2.How does SIMBA help researchers?
A.By locating lions' homes.
B.By tracking other animals.
C.By monitoring the animal stealers.
D.By providing accurate information.
3.What's Banerjee's opinion about the AI program?
A.It needs to be widely used.
B.It has saved the atrisk animals.
C.Its possible risks should be aware of.
D.Its disadvantages should be ignored.
4.Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A.The Application of AI on Protecting Animals
B.The AI Program for the Endangered Asiatic Lions
C.The Measures of Protecting Asiatic Lions
D.The Biggest Challenge of the AI System
