时文阅读理解 A [“豆腐姑娘”李福贵]At 5 a.m., the countryside in Weihui, Henan Province, was still covered in thin fog. Li Fugui loaded tofu and pastries(糕点) onto her small truck. Thick quilts covered the foam（泡沫） boxes on the truck to keep the food fresh. On the passenger seat, there were blood pressure pills for Grandma Zhang, an elderly villager living alone. This was her third winter selling goods in her hometown after working in the city for years. "Fugui is here!" As soon as the truck stopped, villagers gathered around. She smiled and lifted the quilts, saying, "The tofu is still 3.5 yuan a jin. It's fresh!" After taking the money, she told Grandpa Wang, who bought pastries, "You have bad teeth. This is soft—don't eat too much at a time." While selling, she used a tool to fix Grandma Li's loose phone holder. Then she helped Grandpa Liu collect wheat on the field . Sweat soaked her cuffs, but she didn't delay going to the next village—she knew the elderly there waited for fresh tofu. This summer, she took 46 elderly villagers to Zhengzhou, the provincial capital. Before the trip, she stayed up all night checking the list again and again. She packed motion sickness pills（晕车药）, the ID cards and small blankets for each of them. During the trip, she helped the elderly with weak legs get on and off the bus, and took photos of them with the Erqi Tower, a famous landmark in Zhengzhou. When they ate Zhengzhou's braised noodles（烩面） in a restaurant, she walked around to make sure everyone had enough food. "My grandma once wanted to see big city buildings. Now I'm fulfilling her dream by taking you all here," she said softly. As the sun set, Li Fugui drove back. The empty foam boxes made a light sound, like a warm song.

Let's take a look at how it works. First, AI helps researchers keep an eye on animals. Cameras in the wild take lots of photos. Then, AI can quickly identify different animals in these photos. For example, in Africa, AI is used to find rare lions. It can tell male lions from female ones and even recognize individual lions by their unique looks. This saves researchers a lot of time. Before AI, they had to check each photo themselves, which was really tiring and time - consuming. Next, AI is good at analyzing animal behaviors. By studying the data from cameras and other devices, AI can find patterns in how animals move, eat, and interact with each other. A wildlife director said, "AI helps us understand why some animals are dying out. We can then make better plans to protect them." Also, AI can predict where poachers (偷猎者) might appear. By using AI - powered systems, rangers (护林员) can get warnings ahead of time. This way, they can stop poaching before it happens. An engineer who works on such systems told us, "We try our best to use AI to make sure endangered animals are safe." 31. What does the underlined word "identify" in Paragraph 2 mean? A. hunt B. recognize C. miss D. design 32. What is the main idea of Paragraph 3? A. How AI helps analyze animal behaviors. B. Why animals are dying out. C. How researchers study animals. D. What devices are used to monitor animals. 33. We can infer from the passage that ______. A. AI has no effect on stopping poaching B. researchers don't need to work now with AI C. AI makes protecting endangered animals easier D. poachers can easily avoid AI - powered systems 34. How does AI help find poachers? A. It takes photos of poachers. B. It sends rangers warnings in advance. C. It catches poachers by itself. D. It designs traps for poachers. 35. What's the writer's attitude towards AI in protecting endangered animals? A. Doubtful B. Negative C. Positive D. Uninterested 答案：BACBC 阅读还原 [时尚教父阿玛尼先生辞世]Giorgio Armani was born in Italy in 1934.
