Sperm whales have complex social groups.When a familiar young male rejoined his family,researchers seized the chance to record their sounds.For two decades,scientists documented two sperm whale groups,capturing their clicking sounds.After manually decoding some sounds,they turned to AI for faster translation.Using a neural (神经的) network,the team trained it to discern individual whales from a subset of sounds.Next,their ambitious goal is to train a computer to speak with whales. As tech advances,the door has been opened to using machine learning to decode unfamiliar languages.It’s found that AI tools have practical value beyond research.Translating animal sounds aids endangered species.Scientists study caged birds’ calls to grasp sound changes,explaining difficulties in reintroduction.Machine learning decodes pets’ signals like barks and facial expressions.Raskin’s AI model translates dogs’ expressions,revealing their surprising capabilities to owners.Additionally,it helps predict pig emotions based on their sounds,enhancing animal welfare.Advancements deepen our understanding of animals. Now enthusiastic scientists are committed to open-source data and model sharing.“Every time you invent a technology,you also invent a responsibility,” Raskin says.“Designing a ‘whale chatbot’ demands we imagine an animal’s experience.The true value of any language is that it helps us relate to others.” 1.What is the purpose of the Earth Species Project? A.To gather vast data with a computer. B.To create chatbots that imitate animals. C.To understand animal languages using AI. D.To study the social behavior of sperm whales. 2.What does the underlined word “discern” in paragraph 3 mean? A.Train. B.Recognize. C.Record. D.Protect. 3.How do AI tools provide practical value in deepening our insights into animals? A.By translating animals’ calls and looks. B.By advancing animal well-being.

Project利用人工智能工具解码动物语言,加深人类对动物的理解和共情。 1.C　推理判断题。根据文章第二段中的“It’s developing AI models that imitate a variety of species,aiming to have ‘conversations’ with animals.”可知,其目的是用人工智能来理解动物的语言。故选C项。 2.B　词义猜测题。根据画线词所在段可知,该团队利用AI将个体抹香鲸(的声音) 与一个子集的声音分辨开来,由此可知,discern意为“识别”,与选项B意思接近。故选B项。 3.A　细节理解题。根据文章第四段中的“Machine learning decodes pets’ signals like barks and facial expressions.”可知,AI工具能为加深我们对动物的认知提供实际价值,其背后的机制是破译动物的语言信号,如叫声和面部表情。故选A项。 4.B　标题归纳题。根据本文内容,尤其是第二段可知,文章讲述了Earth Species Project利用人工智能工具解码动物语言,加深人类对动物的理解和共情。由此可知,选项B是一个合适的标题。故选B项。 Ⅴ.【语篇导读】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者通过讲述自己工作选择的经历,反对人到了30岁必须要稳定下来这一理念,主张我们不要被30岁所限制,人生充满无限可能,我们要学会接受生活给予的所有机会和惊喜。 1.D　空前强调30岁的人必须有稳定工作,空后讲述他们是失败的人,所以空处表示“否则”。故选D项。 2.A　此处的deadline指的是作者马上到30岁,再根据首段的不成文的规定,到了30岁不稳定被认为是失败的人,再结合下文“I am still renting an apartment,and living alone”作者仍然租房子住,所以作者问自己应不应该“害怕”30岁的来临。故选A项。 3.C　连词“but”表明前后句意呈转折关系,but后是“nice”,空前的“far from”表示“远非”,所以C选项符合题意,far from satisfactory和nice构成转折。故选C项。 4.B　根据下文“because I had been dreaming of writing stories for the 　　　since childhood”可知作者从小就梦想写故事,所以毕业后“立刻”成了记者。前后构成因果关系。故选B项。  5.A　根据空前提示词“journalist”可知A选项符合题意。故选A项。 6.C　根据下文“I decide to start my another pursuit—studying law.”作者决定追求另一个领域:研究法律,由此推知,作者不想把自己“限制”到一条道路上。故选C项。 7.B　根据下文提示“there is no single formula”可知,B选项符合题意,作者认为自己的选择不存在对与错,因为没有单一的公式去明确正确的选择是什么。故选B项。 8.D　根据并列连词“and”和提示词“happiness”,可知选项D符合题意,同时也呼应首段的“failure”。故选D项。 9.C　根据上文内容“there is no single formula”可知C选项符合题意,表示“无限的”可能性。故选C项。 10.A　根据上文内容“I decide to start my another pursuit—studying law”可知A选项符合题意,虽然喜欢目前作为一名记者的工作,但也对“律师”感兴趣。故选A项。 11.D　由上文可知,作者强调人生有多种可能性,不想把自己局限在某一条道路上,所以作者不想仅仅是因为30岁到了就要去一直“坚持”某一个梦想。故选D项。 12.B　根据空前内容“do whatever you like”和空后内容“The most important part is that you are just being yourself”可推知B选项符合题意,作者强调做自己,不要去在乎别人的“评价”。故选B项。 13.D　空后宾语it指代上文的“being yourself”,所以是“享受”做自己。故选D项。 14.A　根据空前“Turning 30 is just like any other birthday.”和上文可知,作者认为30岁只是一个生日而已,并不代表任何截止点,由此可知A选项符合题意,表示不要对自己的年龄感到“焦虑”。故选A项。 15.B　并列词“and”表明前后句意相同或相近,上文强调不要被30岁所限制,所以是要“接受”所有的机会和惊喜。故选B项。 Ⅵ.【语篇导读】 本文是一则新闻报道。文章主要讲述了在古代石刻和壁画消失之前,中国西北部的宁夏回族自治区采用了数字技术来保护它们。 1.to preserve　考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,本句的谓语动词是has adopted,可知空处填非谓语动词。由句意可知,采用数字技术的目的是为了保护古代石刻和壁画,所以填不定式to preserve作目的状语。故填to preserve。 2.their　考查代词。空后是名词locations,所以空处填形容词性物主代词their作定语。故填their。 3.analysis　考查名词。空前是谓语will conduct,所以空处填名词analysis,由冠词a可知,此处填单数,构成名词短语disease analysis。故填analysis。 4.had appeared　考查动词的时态。分析句子结构可知,该空在句中作谓语。再根据appear发生在过去动作invented之前,表示过去的过去,需用过去完成时,即had appeared。故填had appeared。 5.which　考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,此处考查“介词+关系代词”引导的非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词cliff paintings and carvings,指物,代替先行词在从句中作主语。又因题空处位于介词之后,所以填关系代词which。故填which。 6.followed　考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构,本句谓语动词是are,可知空处填非谓语动词。再根据animals与follow之间是被动关系以及提示词by可知,此处填过去分词followed表被动。故填followed。 7.being exposed　考查非谓语动词。并列连词and后的句子中的谓语动词是makes,可知空处在句中作主语,需用动词-ing形式。rock paintings and carvings与expose之间是被动关系,需用动词-ing形式的被动形式,故填being exposed。 8.remarkably　考查副词。空后是形容词big,需用副词remarkably修饰。故填remarkably。 9.by　考查介词以及固定短语。根据空后提示词“the end of ”和谓语“will have disappeared”可知,此处填介词by,构成短语by the end of表示“到……为止”,常和完成时连用。故填by。 10.a/one　空后是可数名词单数quarter。a/one quarter of为固定短语,意为“四分之一”。故填a/one。 9 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
