In fact, trees can live for hundreds and sometimes even thousands of years! If you see a stump (树桩), you may find that the top of the stump has many rings. These rings can tell us how old the tree is and what the weather was like during each year of the tree’s life. In most places, daily weather records have only been kept for the past 100 to 150 years. So, scientists can use trees to learn about the climate hundreds to thousands of years ago. ( )1. According to the poster, which part of a tree can record the climate? A. Its rings. B. Its leaves. C.

B Artificial intelligence (AI) is changing how we manage (管理) water, Al helps us use water smartly and keeps it safe. In water management, AI helps us guess how much water people will need. For example, if a city is facing a hot summer, Al can guess that people will use more water for their gardens andpools. Al can make well guess about future water needs by looking at past information, such as weather changes and how much water people used before. This helps water workers plan better and use water carefully. AI also helps find leaks in water pipes. If there is a small hole in a pipe under the street, AI can find it with special tools to stop the water running out, Fixing leaks quickly is important because it saves water and money, For example, Shanghai uses AI to find leaks and saves a lot of water every year. AI is helpful in another way by checking water quality. AI can test water samples (样品) to see if the water is clean or harmful, This helps make sare that drinking water is safe for everyone.A town can use AI to check its drinking water every day to make sure it is clean. However, there are some problems with using AI in water management, It can be costly to set up, and workers need training to use these systems. It is also very important to keep waterdata(数据) safe from bad people. As AI gets better, it can help us manage water more effectively. With good planning, AI can make water use smarter and safer for the future.
