This is an important step that helps to close the digital gap between low-resource anguages and languages that are more popular online,such as English,French and Russian.It could allow speakers of low-resource languages to get knowledge online in their first language.and possibly stave off the extinction of these languages by leading them into the digita age. Of the almost 7,000 languages spoken worldwide,about half are considered to be in danger of going extinct.The dominance of just a few languages on the Internet is one driving force:it's estimated (that more than half of all websites are in English,and the top ten languages account for more than 80f Internet content. The researchers,based at Meta AI,Meta's research branch in New York City, set out to increase the number of low-resource languages that their model translates as part of Meta Als "No Language Left Behind"programme.They selected languages that were present in Wikipedia(维基百科)articles,but had fewer than 1 million sentences of example translations available online.They then invited professional translators and reviewers to create "seed"data sets in 39 of the low-resource languages,and developed a technique that allowed them to search web data to create similar data sets in the remaining languages. The involvement of human specialists is time-consuming and expensive-but very important.Without them,algorithms (would be trained on poor-quality data produced by Al,creating more errors.Models would then receive this content and create even more poor-quality text.William Lamb,a language expert at the University of Edinburgh,says that this is already happening for Scottish Gaelic,for which most online content is produced by AI.After this low-resource language was included in the Meta programme,its content is now professionally translated.This human effect must not be ignored in the rush towards a global translation system. 35.What do we know about low-resource languages? A.Many of them have not been used in our modern times. B.There are lots of available materials for them on the web. C.Machine-translation software for them is under development. D.The gap between them and popular languages will disappear soon. 高二英语试卷第7页（共10页） 36.What does the underlined phrase "stave off"in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A.Cause. B.Stop. C.Drive. D..Quicken. 37.What makes about half of the languages spoken worldwide face the danger of extinction according to the passage? A.The amount of their words. B.The difficulty of thoir grammar. C.The popularity of top languages online. D.The development of machine-translation. 38.What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A.The process of the research. B.The partkeipauts of the research. C.The techniques used in the research. D.The languages involved in the research.. 39.What can we learn from the passage? A.There are enough language materials for the research now B.Most low-resource language materials online now are correct. C.The quality of AI translation depends on data given by humans. D.Meta AIs programme aims to study the popularity of languages. 第二节阅读下面短文和问题，根据短文内容和每小题后的具体要求，在 答题卡相应题号后的横线上写下相关信息，完成对该问题的回答。答语要意思 清楚，结构正确，书写工整。 Parents aim to teach their children good manners by saying "please"and"thank you"from an early age.In fact,these polite words,plus other actions,may mean much more than people realize. Particularly when parents hear "thank you"from their children,they may experience improved mental well-being and less stress,according to a recent study.It involved 593 parents of children ranging in age from 4 to 17 years old:The parents completed a survey regarding the impact of gratitude (within their family unit.

"Children look to their parents for signals on how to react and respond to situations,"Rosenberg said."Doing things like modeling appreciation to children can help show them the value of appreciating any gift or act of kindness,"she noted. When parents model language like "I feel so lucky that it's a beautiful day"or "Im so thankful that we have what we need every day,these are useful ways to show appreciation to a child."The goal is to show satisfaction with what we have and try our best to feel gratitude for those ideas or things,"Rosenberg said. 40.What can parents experience when they hear "thank you"from their children?
