Facial recognition cameras are everywhere, including in your smartphone. Many people rely on this technology to unlock their phones, open doors or make quick payments, but everyone is wearing mask. What a hassle!
Now, tech companies have updated their software. Facial recognition technology can now identify people even if they are wearing a mask.
Beijing-based tech company Hanwang has announced a software which can correctly recognize 95 percent of people wearing masks, Engineering & Technology (E&T) reported. What’s the secret? It’s all about your eyes.
Marios Savvides, a professor at Carnegie Mellon University, US, studies facial recognition technology. “As we get older,” he said, “our faces change shape, but not the area around our eyes. It stays the same—even if we put on weight.”
Another company has also been working on this kind of software. Tech5 has AI that measures the shape of your face. It also scans your iris (the colored part of your eyes). Tech5 hopes to ignore all of the face below the nose.
Facial recognition software is about more than just unlocking your phone. It’s about public safety. Touchless verification (验证) has become extremely important due to the COVID-19. More than that, facial recognition can be used to fight crime (犯罪). “It can detect crime suspects,” said Huang Lei, Hanwang’s CEO. Hanwang’s technology is used by police in high-security settings. This means places like government buildings, subway stations and airports, Huang admits one big weakness of this new technology: It fails when people wear both masks and sunglasses. “In this situation, all of the key facial information is lost, but I believe we can overcome the weakness in the future,” said Huang.
8. What does the underlined word “hassle” in paragraph 1 mean?
A. Rule. B. Habit. C. Mistake. D. Problem.
9. What makes the software recognize people wearing masks?
A. The eye area. B. The shape of face.
C. The color of the eyes. D. The facial expression.
10. What is Huang Lei’s attitude towards the software?
A. Anxious. B. Positive. C. Doubtful. D. Uncertain.
11. What can we know about the new technology from the last paragraph?
A. It needs further improving. B. It will be less popular in the future.
C. It won’t work if people wear glasses. D. It cannot store key facial information.
【答案】8. D 9. A 10. B 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了面部识别技术的发展和潜在的问题。
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。根据文章第一段“Many people rely on this technology to unlock their phones, open doors or make quick payments, but everyone is wearing mask.(许多人依靠这项技术来解锁手机、开门或快速支付,但每个人都戴着口罩)”可知由于现在人人都带着口罩,所以人脸识别相对来说很麻烦。由此猜测,hassle意为“问题,麻烦”,与problem同义。故选D项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Beijing-based tech company Hanwang has announced a software which can correctly recognize 95 percent of people wearing masks, Engineering & Technology (E&T) reported. What’s the secret? It’s all about your eyes.(据Engineering & Technology报道,总部位于北京的Hanwang科技公司发布了一款软件,可以正确识别95%的戴口罩的人。秘诀是什么? 这一切都和你的眼睛有关)”可知面部识别软件主要依靠眼睛区域来识别戴口罩的人。故选A项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段““It can detect crime suspects,” said Huang Lei, Hanwang’s CEO. Hanwang’s technology is used by police in high-security settings. This means places like government buildings, subway stations and airports, Huang admits one big weakness of this new technology: It fails when people wear both masks and sunglasses. “In this situation, all of the key facial information is lost, but I believe we can overcome the weakness in the future,”(“它可以探测到犯罪嫌疑人,”Hanwang首席执行官黄磊说。警方在高度安全的环境中使用Hanwang的技术。这意味着像政府大楼、地铁站和机场这样的地方,黄承认这种新技术的一个很大的弱点:当人们同时戴口罩和太阳镜时,它就会失效。“在这种情况下,所有关键的面部信息都会丢失,但我相信未来我们可以克服这一弱点。”)”推知,黄磊对于这项技术的态度是积极的。故选B项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Huang admits one big weakness of this new technology: It fails when people wear both masks and sunglasses.(黄承认这项新技术有一个很大的弱点:当人们同时戴口罩和太阳镜时,它就会失效)”推知,这项新技术需要进一步的改进。故选A项。

You’re probably already heard that 35 million tons of food go to waste every year in the United States. Every family in the nation loses from $1,600 to$2,000 each year to food that is bought but not eaten. That loss is more than what it costs to feed a family of four for an entire month. It’s unbelievable. However, food waste not only happens in the US. Global food waste is very serious, with over a fifth of food going to waste.
Why is so much food wasted? The food that is left to go bad or that is thrown away, only makes up about nine percent of the world’s food waste. The other ten percent is due to overeating. Meat production can also cause waste. For example, it takes 1.08 billion tons of crops to produce 240 million tons of animal products.
Therefore, we need to eat fewer animal products and pay attention to our personal food waste, whether it is from overeating or throwing food away. Dr Peter Alexander, an expert on food waste, said, “Reducing (降低) losses from the global food system would improve food safety and help prevent environmental harm.”
There are plenty of ways to make changes to your personal food waste. Not overeating is a goal everyone can get behind. Eating your every meal until you are 80% full will keep you and the planet healthy. Not only is junk food normally where people are overeating, but it also takes more energy to produce it than naturallyoccurring food. Buying local produce and meat is another easy way to do your part. Before you reach for another bag of cookies, make sure you aren’t just throwing food away by doing so. Pay attention to what you eat and how it made its way to you. The planet will thank you.
12. What can we know about food waste from Paragraph 1?
A. It has drawn much attention.
B. It’s still a big problem worldwide.
C. It’s difficult to solve this problem.
D. It causes great harm to the environment.
13. What does the example of animal products in Paragraph 2 tell us?
A. Food safety is a very big problem now.
B. It takes a long time to produce meat.
C. Meat production can cause much food waste.
D. Animal products are more expensive than other food.
14. What do the words of Dr Peter Alexander in Paragraph 3 show?
A. Food waste is a big cause of global warming.
B. Preventing food waste is of great importance.
C. Food safety is now more serious than food waste.
D. Everyone should pay attention to their personal food waste.
15. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?
A. The reasons why we should pay attention to our personal food waste.
B. The differences between junk food and naturallyoccurring food.
C. The methods of reducing our personal food waste.
D. The things we can do to protect the planet.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. B 15. C
【解析】

【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“However, food waste not only happens in the US. Global food waste is very serious, with over a fifth of food going to waste.(然而,食物浪费不仅发生在美国。全球食物浪费非常严重,超过五分之一的食物被浪费了。)”可知,食物浪费在世界范围内仍然是一个大问题。故选B项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Meat production can also cause waste. For example, it takes 1.08 billion tons of crops to produce 240 million tons of animal products.(肉类生产也会造成浪费。例如,生产 2.4 亿吨动物产品需要10.8亿吨农作物。)”可知,通过动物产品的例子是为了告诉我们肉类生产会造成大量的食物浪费。故选C项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Dr Peter Alexander, an expert on food waste, said, “Reducing (降低) losses from the global food system would improve food safety and help prevent environmental harm.”(食物浪费专家彼得・亚历山大博士说:“减少全球粮食系统的损失将改善食品安全,并有助于防止对环境的危害。”)”可知,彼得・亚历山大博士的话表明了防止食物浪费是非常重要的。故选B项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“There are plenty of ways to make changes to your personal food waste.(有很多方法可以改变你个人的食物浪费情况。)”以及后面具体介绍的方法,如“Not overeating(不过度进食)”、“Eating your every meal until you are 80% full(每餐吃到八分饱)”、“Buying local produce and meat(购买当地的农产品和肉类)”等可知,最后一段主要谈论的是减少个人食物浪费的方法。故选C项。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是野生动物的现状、面临的威胁及保护措施的重要性。
【36题详解】
考查定语从句。 句意:野生动物在数十亿年前就存在了,它们过去与其他动物、昆虫和植物和谐相处。分析句子可知,这里考查非限制性定语从句,先行词是Wildlife,为物,在从句中作主语,所以应用关系代词which。故填which。
【37题详解】
考查形容词。 句意:然而,目前我们所担心的是,动物正以惊人的速度灭绝,平均每天有75个物种。分析句子可知,此处用形容词作定语修饰名词rate,alarm的形容词形式是alarming,意为“令人担忧的;惊人的”。故填alarming。
【38题详解】
考查表语从句。 句意:这是因为人类不遵守动物保护法。分析句子可知,human beings don’t observe animal protection laws是表语从句,解释原因,应用because引导。故填because。
【39题详解】
考查过去分词。 句意:动物被非法捕猎、射击和攻击,以便人们可以获得它们的皮、毛或其他器官。分析句子可知,Animals与shoot之间是被动关系,这里用过去分词与being hunted和attacked并列,作谓语的一部分。故填shot。
【40题详解】
考查形容词性物主代词。 句意:动物被非法捕猎、射击和攻击,以便人们可以获得它们的皮、毛或其他器官。分析句子可知,此处用形容词性物主代词修饰名词“skin, fur or other organs”,they的形容词性物主代词是their。故填their。
【41题详解】
考查名词。 句意:此外,人类活动不仅导致动物栖息地的减少,还导致全球气温上升,这威胁到一些动物的生存,特别是那些生活在极地地区的物种。分析句子可知,“the...of”结构中,需要用名词,reduce的名词形式是reduction,表“减少”,这里为不可数名词。故填reduction。
【42题详解】
考查动名词。 句意:它们通过捕猎或捕鱼为生。分析句子可知,by是介词,后面接动名词作宾语。故填hunting。
【43题详解】
考查固定短语。 句意:因此,由于冰的快速融化,海洋生物处于危险之中,它们很难适应这些令人担忧的变化。分析句子可知,这里考查adapt to,是固定短语,意为“适应”。故填to。
【44题详解】
考查名词复数。 句意:只有当局立即采取有效措施,我们才能在野生动物保护方面取得进展。分析句子可知,这里考查take measures,是固定短语,意为“采取措施”,这里用复数形式。故填measures。
【45题详解】
考查谓语动词。 句意:现在,更多的自然保护区正在被建立,以保护濒危动物免于灭绝。分析句子可知,这里考查谓语动词,Now表明动作正在进行,natural reserves与build之间是被动关系,所以用现在进行时的被动语态be being done,主语reserves是复数,be动词用are。故填are being built。

【解析】
【详解】考查动词和形容词。句意:他们是亲密的朋友,所以没有什么事情可能会威胁到他们那许多人都觉得十分和谐的友谊。第一空“is likely to”后面需要接动词原形,所以这里填threat的动词形式threaten,表“威胁”;第二空为“find+ sth. + adj.”结构,意为“发现某物……”,which引导的定语从句中,which作find的宾语,所以应填harmony的形容词harmonious,表示“和谐的”。故填①threaten②harmonious。
49. _______ (attack) by the enemies, the historic city was nearly reduced to ruins. (所给词的适当形式填空)

【答案】to observe

【答案】 ①. are being hunted ②. in
【解析】
【详解】考查时态语态和介词。句意:它们正遭受着猎杀,并且它们的栖息地越来越小,所以它们正处于灭绝的危险之中。根据并列句的谓语动词is getting可知,此处使用现在进行时,强调现阶段正在进行的动作,且 they与hunt之间是被动关系,所以用现在进行时的被动语态,即are being hunted;第二空为固定短语in danger of 意为“处于……的危险中”。故填①are being hunted②in。
57. It is for this reason ________ the WWF constantly put up information to stir _______ public interest in the welfare of the planet. (用适当的词填空)

【答案】Dear Sir or Madam,
I have learned from a newspaper that several elephant species in the world are dying out for human activities. For example, they are overhunted because of their rare and expensive ivory. Another reason is that many habitats of elephants are being destroyed. They are losing their homes.
Thus, it is high time that we should take some measures to protect and save elephants. For one thing, more reserves for elephants should be set up so that they can live freely there. For another, laws should be passed to prevent people from killing elephants and those who hunt elephants should be punished severely when arrested.
Hope the above measures will be useful for the endangered elephants.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

In a small village in Alaska people live in harmony with nature. They are aware of the importance of protecting the environment and the animals living in it. One day, the village teacher decided to take the second-grade students on a field trip to learn more about their surroundings. The children were excited to hunt for signs of wildlife, search for different types of plants, and watch over the bay.
During their adventure, the teacher talked about how some animals are under pressure due to changes in the environment. She explained that animals like the Arctic cucumber have to adapt to colder temperatures and less food. She also mentioned that some species might die out if we do not take action to protect them.

Facial recognition cameras are everywhere, including in your smartphone. Many people rely on this technology to unlock their phones, open doors or make quick payments, but everyone is wearing mask. What a hassle!
Now, tech companies have updated their software. Facial recognition technology can now identify people even if they are wearing a mask.
Beijing-based tech company Hanwang has announced a software which can correctly recognize 95 percent of people wearing masks, Engineering & Technology (E&T) reported. What’s the secret? It’s all about your eyes.
Marios Savvides, a professor at Carnegie Mellon University, US, studies facial recognition technology. “As we get older,” he said, “our faces change shape, but not the area around our eyes. It stays the same—even if we put on weight.”
Another company has also been working on this kind of software. Tech5 has AI that measures the shape of your face. It also scans your iris (the colored part of your eyes). Tech5 hopes to ignore all of the face below the nose.
Facial recognition software is about more than just unlocking your phone. It’s about public safety. Touchless verification (验证) has become extremely important due to the COVID-19. More than that, facial recognition can be used to fight crime (犯罪). “It can detect crime suspects,” said Huang Lei, Hanwang’s CEO. Hanwang’s technology is used by police in high-security settings. This means places like government buildings, subway stations and airports, Huang admits one big weakness of this new technology: It fails when people wear both masks and sunglasses. “In this situation, all of the key facial information is lost, but I believe we can overcome the weakness in the future,” said Huang.
8. What does the underlined word “hassle” in paragraph 1 mean?
A. Rule. B. Habit. C. Mistake. D. Problem.
9. What makes the software recognize people wearing masks?
A. The eye area. B. The shape of face.
C. The color of the eyes. D. The facial expression.
10. What is Huang Lei’s attitude towards the software?
A. Anxious. B. Positive. C. Doubtful. D. Uncertain.
11. What can we know about the new technology from the last paragraph?
A. It needs further improving. B. It will be less popular in the future.
C. It won’t work if people wear glasses. D. It cannot store key facial information.
D
You’re probably already heard that 35 million tons of food go to waste every year in the United States. Every family in the nation loses from $1,600 to$2,000 each year to food that is bought but not eaten. That loss is more than what it costs to feed a family of four for an entire month. It’s unbelievable. However, food waste not only happens in the US. Global food waste is very serious, with over a fifth of food going to waste.
Why is so much food wasted? The food that is left to go bad, or that is thrown away, only makes up about nine percent of the world’s food waste. The other ten percent is due to overeating. Meat production can also cause waste. For example, it takes 1.08 billion tons of crops to produce 240 million tons of animal products.
Therefore, we need to eat fewer animal products and pay attention to our personal food waste, whether it is from overeating or throwing food away. Dr Peter Alexander, an expert on food waste, said, “Reducing (降低) losses from the global food system would improve food safety and help prevent environmental harm.”
There are plenty of ways to make changes to your personal food waste. Not overeating is a goal everyone can get behind. Eating your every meal until you are 80% full will keep you and the planet healthy. Not only is junk food normally where people are overeating, but it also takes more energy to produce it than naturallyoccurring food. Buying local produce and meat is another easy way to do your part. Before you reach for another bag of cookies, make sure you aren’t just throwing food away by doing so. Pay attention to what you eat and how it made its way to you. The planet will thank you.
12. What can we know about food waste from Paragraph 1?
A. It has drawn much attention.
B. It’s still a big problem worldwide.
C. It’s difficult to solve this problem.
D. It causes great harm to the environment.
13. What does the example of animal products in Paragraph 2 tell us?
A. Food safety is a very big problem now.
B. It takes a long time to produce meat.
C. Meat production can cause much food waste.
D. Animal products are more expensive than other food.
14. What do the words of Dr Peter Alexander in Paragraph 3 show?
A. Food waste is a big cause of global warming.
B. Preventing food waste is of great importance.
C. Food safety is now more serious than food waste.
D. Everyone should pay attention to their personal food waste.
15. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?
A. The reasons why we should pay attention to our personal food waste.
B. The differences between junk food and naturallyoccurring food.
C. The methods of reducing our personal food waste.
D. The things we can do to protect the planet.
