Carbon removal is crucial for fighting
climate change.Scientists at Salk Institute are
making use of the natural capacity of plants to
absorb carbon dioxide by enhancing their root
systems..This optimization(优化)aims to
increase the amount of carbon stored and extend
the duration of its storage.
To design these climate-saving plants,the
scientists are using a research tool called
SLEAP-an AI software that tracks multiple
features of root growth.Created by Salk Fellow
Talmo Pereira,SLEAP was initially designed to
track animal movement in the lab.Now,Pereira
has teamed up with plant scientist Professor
Wolfgang Busch to apply SLEAP to plants.
In a study published in Plant Phenomics,
Busch and Pereira establish a new procedure for
using SLEAP to analyze plant root phenotypes-
how deep and wide they grow,how massive
their root systems become,and other physical
qualities.Prior to SLEAP,tracking the physical
characteristics of both plants and animals
required a lot of labor that slowed the scientific
process.SLEAP uses computer vision the
ability for computers to understand images)and
deep learning (an Al approach for training a
computer to learn and work like the human
brain)to help researchers process images much
more quickly.
The application of SLEAP to plants has
already enabled researchers to establish the
most extensive catalog(目录)of plant root
phenotypes to date.What's more,tracking these
physical root system characteristics helps scientists
find genes(基因)associated with those
characteristics,as well as whether multiple root

characteristics are determined by the same genes
or independently.This allows the Salk team to
determine what genes are most beneficial to
their plant designs.
"Our cooperation is truly proof of what
makes Salk science so special and impactful,"
says Pereira."We're not just 'borrowing'from
different disciplines-We're really putting them
on an equal footing in order to create something
greater than the sum of its parts.
1.What do the scientists at Salk Institute hope
to achieve?
A.Keeping more carbon in plants.
B.Optimizing the use of energy.
C.Enhancing biological diversity.
D.Reducing carbon absorption.
2.Why did Pereira create SLEAP?
A.To generate plant images.
B.To conduct research on animals.
C.To study climate patterns.
D.To track features of root growth.
3.What will SLEAP help the scientists do?
A.Pick out diseased plants in the forest.
B.Collect samples of plant root systems.
C.Identify genes for desirable plant roots.
D.Preserve the genes of endangered plants.
4.What can be inferred from Pereira's words?
A.Academic disciplines are of equal importance.
B.Computer programming is a must for scientists.
C.Interdisciplinary approaches promote creativity.
D.Cooperation outweighs competition in research.

Teaching students to ask good questions
engages them and acts as an ongoing assessment.Here
are some of the benefits of inquiry-based learning.
Questions reveal interest
We ask questions when something catches

our attention and surprises us,or when we hear
something we want more information about.
l.It is like saying,“Hey!I am paying
attention,and I want to know more!"Asking a
great question is even more revealing.
Questions reveal both gaps and strengths in
understanding
2.In fact,it makes our job a lot easier
when we are asked a question that can clarify a
misunderstanding or explain something in a
better way.Teaching students to ask effective
questions can reveal what a child doesn't
understand,allowing us to fill in the gaps and
likely improve understanding for other students too.
3
Research shows that when we ask a question
ourselves,we are more likely to remember the
information we receive.It makes sense-we are
likely to ask about something that is interesting or
relevant to us,and by asking the question,we
become personally invested in the answer.
Questions keep learners engaged
If we are open to children's questions and
leave room for discussion,the lesson can quickly
become more interesting when the children's own
questions guide it.4.A question can make
students personally engaged in the topic or activity.
Questions build a foundation for new knowledge
There are many benefits of inquiry-based
learning.Any subject or topic starts out with
broad,foundational information that forms the
basis for more in-depth or specific knowledge.A
question posed at the right time builds essential
knowledge.With that understanding,the more
complex and more interesting knowledge has
roots.5.
A.Questions improve memory
B.Questions show your excellence
C.And the learning provides a chance to grow
D.And they get a lot of benefits from
asking questions
E.There is a difference between a good

文章大意:本文介绍Salk研究所科学家利用AI工
具SLEAP优化植物根系,以增强植物固碳能力、延长
碳储存时间,助力应对气候变化,并通过跨学科合作实
现科研突破。
l.A理解具体信息根据第一段中的“Scientists at
Salk Institute are making use of...This optimization
()aims to increase the amount of carbon stored
and extend the duration of its storage'”可知,研究所
的科学家们正在通过塔强植物的根系,利用植物吸收
二氧化碳的自然能力。这种优化旨在增加碳的储存
量并延长其储存时间。由此可知,科学家们希望通过
优化植物根系在植物中储存更多的碳。故选A。
错误项分析文中未提及任何与能源利用相关的内
容,B项“优化能源利用”属于无中生有;文章核心是
通过植物根系固碳应对气候变化,并非关注生物多样
性的提升,C项“提升生物多样性”偏离主题;D项“减
少碳吸收”与第一段的“increase the amount of
carbon stored and extend the duration of its storage"
完全相反,属于事实错误。
2.B理解具体信息根据第二段中的“Created by
Salk Fellow Talmo Pereira,SLEAP was initially
designed to track animal movement in the lab"可知,
梦想成真】
Drow English
Pereira最初开发SLEAP是为了追踪实验室动物运
动,即开展动物研究。故选B。
错误项分析根据第三段中的“SLEAP uses
computer vision...to help researchers process
images much more quickly”表明,SLEAP借助计算
机视觉和深度学习,帮助研究人员更快速地处理图
像,而非生成图像,A项错误;根据第二段中的“T0
design these climate-saving plants,the scientists are
using a research tool called SLEAP”可知,SLEAP是
科学家们为培育有助于气候的植物使用的一种研究
工具,与研究气候模式无关,C项错误;第二段中的
"SLEAP was initially designed to track animal
movement in the lab.Now...apply SLEAP to
plants'”和第三段中的“In a study...using SLEAP to
analyze plant root phenotypes'”表明,追踪根系生长
特征是SLEAP后续应用于植物的功能,并非Pereira
最初开发SLEAP的目的,D项错误。
3.C推断读题题目问“SLEAP将帮助科学家们做什
么?”。A项“在森林中挑出患病害的植物”;B项“收
集植物根系样本”;C项“识别理想植物根系的基因”;
D项“保存濒危植物基因”。
解题根据第四段中的“tracking these physical root
system characteristics.This allows the Salk team to
determine what genes are most beneficial to their
plant designs”可知,追踪这些自然的根系特征能帮肋
科学家们找到与那些特征相关的基因,查明多个根系
特征是由同一基因决定还是由独立遗传决定。这让
Sak团队能够确定哪些基因对其植物培育方案最有
益。由此可推知,SLEAP将能够帮助科学家识别出
理想植物根系的基因。故选C。
4.C推断读题题目问“从Pereira的话可推断出什
么?”。A项“学科同等重要“;B项“计算机编程是科
学家的必备技能”;C项“跨学科方法激发创造力”;D
项“在研究中合作胜过竞争”。
解题根据最后一段中的“Our cooperation is truly
proof of what makes Salk science so special and
impactful”“We’re not just’borrowing’from
different disciplines.in order to create something
greater than the sum of its parts”可知,Pereira调
他们并非简单“借用”不同学科的知识,而是真正将各
学科置于平等地位,从而创造出超越各部分之和的成
果。由此可推知,Pereira认为跨学科合作能激发更
大的创造力与影响力。故选C。
错误项分析最后一段中的“we're really putting
them on an equal footing in order to create
something greater than the sum of its parts'”调的
是将各个学科置于平等地位以实现更大成果,并非单
纯说明各学科同等重要,A项错误;原文仅提及

语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要围绕探究
式学习中提问的好处展开,介绍了提问能揭示兴趣、揭
示理解上的空白和优势、提高记忆力、保持学习者参与
度以及为新知识奠定基础等多个方面,对探究式学习中
提问的作用进行了详细的说明。
1.F空前提到当某事引起我们的注意或惊讶时,我们
会提问;而空后则指出提问就表明自己很关注。F项
衔接上下文,解释了提问与兴趣的直接关联,且clear
signal与下句中的like saying形成呼应。
2.G根据空处下文内容可知,当学生提问时,我们更
容易澄清误解,暗示教师需要应对学生未理解的内
容。G项引出教师视角,解释了为何学生提问能揭示
理解差距,逻辑连贯。
3.A空处为小标题。本段主要讲述了提问可以使我
们记住所获得的信息。A项可作为小标题,精准概括
段落主旨。
4.D空前提到当孩子的问题引导课程时,课堂会更有
趣;而空后则强调问题让学生从个人层面参与到主题
或活动中。D项承上启下,既总结上句“课程更有趣”
的结果,又引出下句“个人投入”的具体收益,逻辑
顺畅。
5.C空处上文提到复杂知识有了根基。C项补充了知
识根基带来的结果,与“根基”形成隐喻呼应,完整阐
述知识积累的逻辑。

语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作
者通过冥想克服舞台恐惧症的个人经历和感受。
1.A根据上文可知,作者从小就有舞台恐惧症;再根
据下文作者的变化可推测,即便成年,作者仍然会出
现这种症状。
2.B根据下文I'm comfortable in one-on-one settings
可知,作者并非天生胆小,只是在多人场合紧张。由
此可知,作者其实是个自信的人
3.A根据上文可知,作者在一对一的交流中表现得很
自信。句首的But暗示,作者在面对多人的场合才会
展现出舞台恐惧症。
4.D根据语境可知,此处列举了舞台恐惧发作时的身
体反应。“心跳加速”是紧张时的典型生理反应。
5.C根据上文It's like my more primitive nerves
have taken over my mind可知,原始神经接管了大
脑。由此可知,此时的作者无法清晰地思考。
6.C根据an article about meditation以及选项可推
测,作者通过某种方式了解到冥想。由此可知,作者
是阅读了一篇关于冥想的文章。
7.D空前的though表示转折,由此可推测,空处需要
体现作者对冥想的初始态度与“决定尝试”的对比。
由此可知,作者虽然有所怀疑,但是仍决定尝试。
8.B根据下文But gradually,I noticed a tiny,silvery
144

卓尔英语
Q●
part of me that wasn't affected by the chaos.可推
测,初期冥想时作者的大脑处于混乱状态。
9.A根据上句可知,空处需要体现大脑中的内容混
乱,即大脑充满各种想法。
l0.A下文watching the storm of my thoughts with a
kind of detached(超然的)interest是对上文的解
释,因此空处需要体现超然观察的角色。observer
与watching直接呼应,符合逻辑。
11.B根据全文内容可知,文章围绕舞台恐惧症展开。
由此可推测,空处指的是作者在舞台上时会有熟悉
的恐惧感。
l2.D根据上文I watch as the anxiety washes over
me可知,作者感觉到焦虑会笼罩自己;再根据but
I'm no longer可推测,现在的作者不再会被焦虑
控制。
13.B根据上文可知,作者不再会被焦虑控制,体现了
作者舞台恐惧症的好转。由此可知,恐慌感持续的
时间也变短了。
l4.C根据上文The panic doesn't..start to think
straight again.可知,作者现在恐慌持续时间变短,
能重新清晰思考。由此可知,冥想帮助作者掌握了
大脑的思维。
15.C根据全文内容可知,作者通过冥想应对了舞台恐
惧症。也就是说,冥想帮肋作者克服了舞台恐惧症。
Test D

l.by此空无提示词,空后为动词-ing形式,应用介词,
表示“通过…方式”处理干垃圾。
2.unintentionally此处修饰动词caused,应用副词作

3.forgetting句中已有谓语动词threw,所以使用非谓
语动词,forget与主语I之间是主动关系,应用现在分

4.because/,as/since根据空前和空后的句意可知,上
下文之间为因果关系。
5.to askintend to do sth打算做某事。
6.my此处修饰名词fault,应用形容词性物主代词。
7.why此处引导的定语从句,先行词为the reason,关
系词在定语从句中作原因状语。
8.spoke根据上文的谓语动词erupted可知,此处描述
