6课时分层检测（五） I.阅读理解 A (2026·河南省名校联盟高三3月模拟) Artificial intelligence (AI)is showing promise in earthquake prediction,challenging the long-held belief that it is impossible.Researchers at the University of Texas,Austin,have developed an AI algorithm (that correctly predicted 70%of earthquakes a week in advance during a trial in China and provided accurate strength calculations for the predicted earthquakes. The research team believes their method succeeded because they stuck with a relatively simple machine learning approach.The AI was provided with a set of statistical features based on the team's knowledge of earthquake physics,and then instructed to train itself using a five-year database of earthquake recordings.Once trained, the AI provided its prediction by listening for signs of incoming earthquakes within the background rumblings(隆隆声)in the Earth. This work is clearly a milestone in research for Al-driven earthquake prediction."You don't see earthquakes coming,"explains Alexandros Savvaidis,a senior research scientist who leads the Texas Seismological Network Program (TexNet). "It's a matter of milliseconds,and the only thing you can control is how prepared you are.Even with the 70%accuracy,that's a huge result and could help minimize economic and human losses and has the potential to remarkably improve earthquake preparation worldwide. While it is unknown whether the same approach will work at other locations,the researchers are confident that their Al algorithm could produce more accurate predictions if used in areas with reliable earthquake tracking networks.The next step is to test artificial intelligence in Texas,since UT's Bureau TexNet has 300 earthquake stations and over six years worth of continuous records, making it an ideal location for these purposes. Eventually,the authors hope to combine the system with physics-based models.This strategy could prove especially important where data is poor or lacking."That may be a long way off,but many advances such as this one,taken together,are what moves science forward,concludes Scott Tinker, the bureau's director. 1.How does the Al predict earthquakes? A.By identifying data from the satellites. B.By analyzing background sounds in the Earth. -3( Natural Disasters C.By modeling data based on earthquake recordings. D.By monitoring changes in the Earth's magnetic field. 2.What does Alexandros Savvaidis intend to show in Paragraph 3? A.The ways to reduce losses in earthquakes. B.The importance of preparing for earthquakes. C.The significance of developing the AI prediction. D.The limitation of Al algorithms in earthquake prediction. 3.What does the follow-up research focus on? A.Conducting tests in different locations. B.Applying the Al approach to other fields. C.Building more earthquake stations in Texas. D.Enlarging the database to train the calculation accuracy. 4.Which words can best describe the earthquake- predicting technology? A.Stable but outdated. B.Effective but costly. C.Potential and economical. D.Advanced and promising. B (2026·广东广州二模) US forests could become a "substantial carbon source"by 2070,suggesting that forests could worsen global warming instead of easing it,a new Agriculture Department report says. US forests currently absorb 11 percent of US carbon emissions（排放)，equal to the combined emissions from 40 coal power plants.The report predicts that the ability of forests to absorb carbon will start declining after 2025 and that forests could emit up to 100 million metric tons of carbon a year as their emissions from decaying(腐烂的) trees go beyond their carbon absorption. The prediction suggests that this will require the US to cut emissions more rapidly to reach net zero,according to Lynn Riley,a senior manager of climate science."Eleven percent of our domestic emissions.That is a really significant portion," Riley said."As we work to decarbonize...forests are one of the greatest tools available.If we were to lose that,it means the US will contribute that much more in emissions."The report also assesses and predicts the extent of renewable resources provided by the nation's forests and undeveloped landscapes,including farmlands,wetlands and grasslands. According to the report,the loss of carbon absorption is driven in part by natural disasters which are increasing in frequency and strength as global temperatures rise.Development in forested areas,which the report predicts will continue to increase,is having the same effect as people increasingly move to the so-called wildland urban areas.Aging forests also contribute as older, mature trees absorb less carbon than younger trees of the same species,and the US forests are rapidly aging. More aggressive forest management can help by cutting down a small portion of aging forests to make ways for younger trees that absorb more carbon.A thorough study of each forest should be done before removing older trees,Riley said. 5.Why could US forests become a "substantial carbon source”？ A.They fail to absorb enough carbon. B.They begin to emit carbon increasingly. C.They may emit more carbon than absorb. D.Mature trees outnumber young trees. 6.Which of the following may Lynn Riley agree with? A.US forests have lost their role in carbon absorption. B.It is urgent for the US to reduce carbon emissions. C.The US has contributed to 11%carbon emissions. D.The loss of forests contributes to less carbon emissions. 7.What leads to the loss of carbon absorption? A.Improper tree species. B.Removal of aging trees. C.Decreasing urban development. D.Frequent severe natural disasters. 8.Which could be a suitable title for the text? A.Aging Forests-a Major Emitter of Carbon B.Growing Forests-a Solution to Carbon Emissions C.Reducing Forests-a Threat of Global Warming D.Decaying Forests-a Consequence of Global Warming Ⅱ.完形填空 (2026·广东肇庆二模) Elmer Whitaker sighed as he looked over his muddy crops.A terrible 1 had swept through his farm the night before,and his crops were now covered in 2 and destroyed.His neighbor,a kind young man named Thomas,3 to offer his help. “What a disaster,”Whitaker said.“My whole family has always survived on the harvests of this field.I feel 4 and don't know what to do now.” Thomas calmed him down and thought for a moment."I see this not as a disaster but as an 3( 5 ,"he said.Whitaker looked at him 6 “How can it be?”he asked.Thomas smiled7, "Now you have a chance to try something new.
