In a hrrifying mment, she realized that ne f the bike’s handle grips (车把) was missing, which left a sharp, expsed metal pipe that pierced her right leg, severed her artery (动脉), and flded her bdy with intense pain.
Panic set in as she lay n the grund, her mind racing. A severed artery can cause rapid bld lss, leading t passing ut and death within minutes. Stephanie felt herself getting weaker, believing she wuldn’t survive.
But in the midst f her anxiety, help was n the way. Kupris, wh had been wrking n a wdwrking prject nearby, heard the chas, drpped his tls, and rushed utside.

“There are a large number f accidents that are happening every day due t carelessness mst f them, unfrtunately, frm human errrs,” says lead authr Mehdi Hsseinzadeh, assistant prfessr in Washingtn State University, “Rbts act as planned and fllw the rules, but humans ften dn’t fllw the rules. That’s the mst difficult and challenging prblem.”
Rbts wrking with peple are increasingly cmmn in many industries, where they ften wrk tgether. Many industries require that humans and rbts share a wrkspace, but repetitive and bring wrk can make peple lse their fcus and make mistakes. Mst cmputer prgrams help rbts react when a mistake happens. Thse algrithms (算法) might fcus either n imprving efficiency r safety, but they haven’t cnsidered the changing behavir f the peple they’ re wrking with, says Hsseinzadeh.
As part f their effrt t develp a plan fr the rbts, the researchers first wrked t quantify (量化) human carelessness, lking at factrs such as hw ften a human ignres r misses a safety alert. “We defined the carelessness, and the rbt bserved the behavir f the human and tried t understand it,” he says, “The cncept f carelessness level is smething abut that.”
Once the rbt identifies humans careless behavir, it is prgrammed t change hw it interacts with the human acting that way, wrking t diminish the chance that the persn might cause a wrkplace errr r hurt themselves. S, fr instance, the rbt might change the way it manages its tasks t avid getting in the human’s way. The rbt cntinuusly updates the carelessness level and any changes that it bserves.
The researchers tested their plan with a cmputer simulatin f a packaging line made up f fur peple and a rbt. They als tested a simulated cperative assembly line where tw humans wuld wrk tgether with a rbt. “The cre idea is t make the algrithm less sensitive t the behavir f careless humans,” says Hsseinzadeh. “Our results revealed that the prpsed scheme (计划) has the capability f imprving efficiency and safety.”
After cnducting a cmputerized simulatin, the researchers are planning t test their wrk in a labratry with real rbts and peple-and eventually in field studies. They als want t quantify and accunt fr ther human characteristics that affect wrkplace prductivity, such as human ratinality (理性) r danger awareness.
28. What is the functin f the first tw paragraphs?
A. T clarify the imprtance f a new algrithm.
B. T explain the reasn fr human carelessness.
C. T highlight the advantage f rbts ver humans.
D. T shw the trend f cperatin between rbts and humans.
29. What des the underlined wrd “diminish” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Reduce.B. Change.C. Indicate.D. Predict.
30. Hw will the rbt react nce it ntices human’s carelessness?
A. Take ver humans’ wrk.
B Send a security warning t humans.
C. Remve all barriers f the task fr humans.
D. Update its prgram timely t adapt t human’s changes.
31. What wuld be a suitable title fr this text?
A. Will Rbts Replace Humans in Wrkplace in the Future?
B. Dangers Hidden in Cperatin Between Humans and Rbts
C. A Significant Discvery: Rbts Are Mre Fcused than Humans
D. A New Algrithm Guards Rbts by Making Them Ntice Human Carelessness

Frm mre biling summers t mre frequent flds, warming weather is impacting ur lives in every aspect. Fr animals, hwever, it’s nt just a cmfrtable living envirnment in danger, but their very existence (生存). Many animals that we lve, including penguins and elephants, are in danger f disappearing due t climate change.
A study published n March 7 used fssils frm sea creatures t find ut which animals are facing the highest risk f extinctin as ur planet’s climate cntinues t shift.
Carried ut by the University f Oxfrd, the study fund that the size f an animal plays a big part in its ability t survive and reprduce. Smaller animals are mre likely t becme extinct because they tend t use up their energy quickly due t their size. They need lts f fd t keep ging, s any change that makes fd scarce (短缺的) affects them mre. Furthermre, small animals usually dn’t live as lng as larger nes, making them mre vulnerable (易受伤害的) t factrs that might reduce their numbers.
Anther prblem is that small animals generally can’t travel far. S, if their current hme is disturbed, r if they face danger, it’s tugh fr them t find new hmes r escape threats. If their living area is brken apart, r if they end up islated frm each ther, they are mre at risk f ging extinct, accrding t the study.
Apart frm small animals, thse living in extreme heat r cld, such as at the ples, are facing mre threats frm climate change. These places g thrugh big weather changes, making life even mre difficult fr species that have already been dealing with tugh cnditins. As climate change wrsens, these extreme envirnments change rapidly, psing a greater risk fr the animals living there.
This study presented us with imprtant infrmatin n hw t prtect wildlife as the wrld gets warmer. “Knwing which creatures are mst at risk is crucial fr planning cnservatin effrts as climate change wrsens,” cmmented the website Earth. By fcusing n the mst vulnerable species, cnservatinists can direct their wrk mre effectively, making the mst f limited resurces and imprving the chances f keeping bidiversity alive despite the envirnmental challenges.
32. What is the biggest cnsequence f climate crisis n animals?
A. Their fssils are at risk.B. Their sizes are getting smaller.
C. Their survival is under threat.D. Their habitats get uncmfrtable.
33. What factrs make smaller animals easily affected by glbal warming?
A. Energy surce and living style.B. Fd shrtage and life duratin.
C. Eating and reprductin patterns.D. Travel capacity and islatin preference.
34. Accrding t the authr, hw can we effectively prtect animals frm the envirnmental challenges?
A. Plan ur cnservatin effrts in advance.
B. Fcus n the animals facing the highest risk.
C. Make the mst f ur current energy resurces.

Selfie turism is a grwing trend where travelers visit icnic landmarks t take phts fr scial media. It’s less abut persnal experience and mre abut curating an image fr scial media. This new phenmenn fcuses n “visiting destinatins primarily t take and share phts f themselves, ften with icnic landmarks in the backgrund,” accrding t UNESCO. Even thugh it prmtes the turist ecnmy t sme extent, it’s a plague (瘟疫).
UNESCO warns that selfie turism is having terrible cnsequences n many f the wrld’s mst famus landmarks. A UNESCO spkespersn said: “In many cases it has led t vercrwding at specific landmarks, creating pressure n lcal facilities and cntributing t the degradatin f visitr experience.”
Fr example, in Venice, lcal fficials have had t cntend with disrespectful behavir frm visitrs wh see the city as little mre than a backgrund fr their phts. The cnstant ft traffic, smetimes accmpanied by reckless behavir, is damaging the city’s delicate facilities. Similarly, in ther turist-heavy areas like the Eiffel Twer, there have been reprts f turists disregarding safety precautins just fr the perfect sht.
In respnse, cities and destinatins arund the wrld are fighting back with fines and duties. Prtfin, Italy, intrduced fines fr turists lingering t lng in ppular selfie spts. Other cities steer turists away frm verrun n landmarks. In Flrence, effrts are underway t direct visitrs t lesser knwn neighbrhds.
Hwever, many f these places have a turism dependent ecnmy. Effrts t manage turism must cnsider nt nly ecnmic grwth but als the lng term preservatin f cultural landmarks and lcal cmmunities. But it is a difficult act t balance. T address this challenge effectively, gvernments, lcal fficials, and turists alike must wrk tgether t ensure that turism is bth sustainable and respectful f the cultural treasures it seeks t shwcase.

“There are a large number f accidents that are happening every day due t carelessness mst f them, unfrtunately, frm human errrs,” says lead authr Mehdi Hsseinzadeh, assistant prfessr in Washingtn State University, “Rbts act as planned and fllw the rules, but humans ften dn’t fllw the rules. That’s the mst difficult and challenging prblem.”
Rbts wrking with peple are increasingly cmmn in many industries, where they ften wrk tgether. Many industries require that humans and rbts share a wrkspace, but repetitive and bring wrk can make peple lse their fcus and make mistakes. Mst cmputer prgrams help rbts react when a mistake happens. Thse algrithms (算法) might fcus either n imprving efficiency r safety, but they haven’t cnsidered the changing behavir f the peple they’ re wrking with, says Hsseinzadeh.
As part f their effrt t develp a plan fr the rbts, the researchers first wrked t quantify (量化) human carelessness, lking at factrs such as hw ften a human ignres r misses a safety alert. “We defined the carelessness, and the rbt bserved the behavir f the human and tried t understand it,” he says, “The cncept f carelessness level is smething abut that.”
Once the rbt identifies humans careless behavir, it is prgrammed t change hw it interacts with the human acting that way, wrking t diminish the chance that the persn might cause a wrkplace errr r hurt themselves. S, fr instance, the rbt might change the way it manages its tasks t avid getting in the human’s way. The rbt cntinuusly updates the carelessness level and any changes that it bserves.
The researchers tested their plan with a cmputer simulatin f a packaging line made up f fur peple and a rbt. They als tested a simulated cperative assembly line where tw humans wuld wrk tgether with a rbt. “The cre idea is t make the algrithm less sensitive t the behavir f careless humans,” says Hsseinzadeh. “Our results revealed that the prpsed scheme (计划) has the capability f imprving efficiency and safety.”
After cnducting a cmputerized simulatin, the researchers are planning t test their wrk in a labratry with real rbts and peple-and eventually in field studies. They als want t quantify and accunt fr ther human characteristics that affect wrkplace prductivity, such as human ratinality (理性) r danger awareness.
28. What is the functin f the first tw paragraphs?
A. T clarify the imprtance f a new algrithm.
B. T explain the reasn fr human carelessness.
C. T highlight the advantage f rbts ver humans.
D. T shw the trend f cperatin between rbts and humans.

Frm mre biling summers t mre frequent flds, warming weather is impacting ur lives in every aspect. Fr animals, hwever, it’s nt just a cmfrtable living envirnment in danger, but their very existence (生存). Many animals that we lve, including penguins and elephants, are in danger f disappearing due t climate change.
A study published n March 7 used fssils frm sea creatures t find ut which animals are facing the highest risk f extinctin as ur planet’s climate cntinues t shift.
Carried ut by the University f Oxfrd, the study fund that the size f an animal plays a big part in its ability t survive and reprduce. Smaller animals are mre likely t becme extinct because they tend t use up their energy quickly due t their size. They need lts f fd t keep ging, s any change that makes fd scarce (短缺的) affects them mre. Furthermre, small animals usually dn’t live as lng as larger nes, making them mre vulnerable (易受伤害的) t factrs that might reduce their numbers.
Anther prblem is that small animals generally can’t travel far. S, if their current hme is disturbed, r if they face danger, it’s tugh fr them t find new hmes r escape threats. If their living area is brken apart, r if they end up islated frm each ther, they are mre at risk f ging extinct, accrding t the study.
Apart frm small animals, thse living in extreme heat r cld, such as at the ples, are facing mre threats frm climate change. These places g thrugh big weather changes, making life even mre difficult fr species that have already been dealing with tugh cnditins. As climate change wrsens, these extreme envirnments change rapidly, psing a greater risk fr the animals living there.
This study presented us with imprtant infrmatin n hw t prtect wildlife as the wrld gets warmer. “Knwing which creatures are mst at risk is crucial fr planning cnservatin effrts as climate change wrsens,” cmmented the website Earth. By fcusing n the mst vulnerable species, cnservatinists can direct their wrk mre effectively, making the mst f limited resurces and imprving the chances f keeping bidiversity alive despite the envirnmental challenges.
32. What is the biggest cnsequence f climate crisis n animals?
A. Their fssils are at risk.B. Their sizes are getting smaller.
C. Their survival is under threat.D. Their habitats get uncmfrtable.

【答案】35. D 36. F 37. G 38. C 39. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。主要讲述了如何更好地欣赏电影。
【35题详解】
根据前文“What makes the early films f a directr great fun while the later nes a ttal mess?(是什么让一个导演的早期电影非常有趣,而后来的电影却一团糟?)”可知,空前是问句,后文要么是对本句的回答,要么继续提问,形成排比句,所以D项“Why d sme films excite peple while thers send peple t sleep?(为什么有些电影让人兴奋,而有些电影让人昏昏欲睡?)”符合前文主题,都是在提问电影为什么有好有坏。故选D项。
【36题详解】
根据前文“Give the film yur undivided attentin at least nce. Filmmakers accept that they wn’t always have their audience’s undivided attentin. Significant plt pints will be highlighted with incidental music s that yu fcus.(至少一次专心致志地看这部电影。电影制作人承认,他们并不总是能吸引观众的注意力。重要的情节点将突出附带音乐,以便您集中注意力)”可知,此处主要讲述了电影制作人用各种方法去吸引观众的注意力,所以F项“Characters’ names might be repeated t make sure that yu’ve heard them.(角色的名字可能会被重复,以确保你听到了他们的名字)”符合此处主题,都是吸引观众的注意力的方法。故选F项。
【37题详解】
根据前文“Cnsider the themes the film explred. Picking ut the themes and assessing hw the film treats them is a central pint f film criticism. It might be an uncmfrtable allegry (讽喻).(想想这部电影探讨的主题。挑选出电影的主题并评估影片如何处理这些主题是影评的核心。这可能是一个令人不舒服的讽喻)”可知,本段讲述电影如何表达主题,根据后文“Fr instance, The Lin King drew n the plt f Hamlet. Des it breathe new life int the stry and take it in an interesting directin?(例如,《狮子王》借鉴了《哈姆雷特》情节。它是否为故事注入了新的活力,并把它带向一个有趣的方向?)”可知,后文举例,讲述了主题借鉴其他作品,所以G项“Yu can als cnsider if the film has drawn any inspiratin frm ther surce material.(你也可以考虑这部电影是否从其他材料中获得了灵感)”符合本段主题,后文是对此句的举例。故选G项。
【38题详解】
根据前文“Analyze sund, lighting and prductin. Yu may nly ntice sund if the levels are all wrng and the incidental music drwns ut the dialg. Lighting, similarly, yu may nly ntice if everything is s bright that it lks like the actin is taking place in a dentist’s ffice.(分析音响、灯光及制作效果。只有当音量严重失调或配乐盖过对白时,你才会注意到音响问题;同理,只有当灯光亮如牙科诊所时,你才会意识到布光的存在)”可知,C项“Try t train yurself t see these aspects f a film every time.(试着训练自己每次都能看到电影的这些方面)”可知,本句中“这些方面”指的就是音响、灯光及制作效果,是对前文的总结,符合文意。故选C项。
【39题详解】
设空位于段首,为本段中心句,根据后文“It’s easy t fall int the trap f thinking that there is smething that is bjectively gd r bad. But if yu find yurself lving a film that ther peple seem t dislike, that isn’t necessarily a sign that there’s smething wrng with yur taste. It culd be that a film’s sense f humr agrees with yur wn, r that a film reflects yur life experiences.(我们很容易陷入这样的思维陷阱,认为客观存在着好坏之分。但是,如果你发现自己喜欢一部别人似乎不喜欢的电影,这并不一定表明你的品味有问题。它可能是一部电影的幽默感与你自己的幽默感一致,或者一部电影反映了你的生活经历)”可知,本段主要讲述,电影的好坏是主观的印象而不是客观的,所以A项“Dn’t frget that it’s all subjective.(别忘了这都是主观的)”符合本段主题。故选A项。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了自拍式旅游这一新兴趋势,阐述了其对世界著名地标带来的不良后果,以及一些城市采取的应对措施,同时指出平衡经济增长与文化地标保护的困难,呼吁各方共同努力实现可持续旅游。
【40题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第一段“Selfie turism is a grwing trend where travelers visit icnic landmarks t take phts fr scial media. It’s less abut persnal experience and mre abut curating an image fr scial media. This new phenmenn fcuses n ‘visiting destinatins primarily t take and share phts f themselves, ften with icnic landmarks in the backgrund,’ accrding t UNESCO.(自拍式旅游是一种日益增长的趋势,旅行者前往标志性地标为社交媒体拍照。它更多地不是关于个人体验,而是为社交媒体精心打造一种形象。根据联合国教科文组织的说法,这种新现象侧重于“主要是为了拍摄和分享自己的照片而访问目的地,背景往往是标志性地标”。)”可知,“自拍式旅游”是旅行者主要为了在社交媒体上拍摄和分享自己与标志性地标合影的照片而访问目的地的一种趋势。故答案为It is a trend where travelers visit icnic landmarks mainly t take and share phts f themselves with icnic landmarks in the backgrund fr scial media.
【41题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第二段“UNESCO warns that selfie turism is having terrible cnsequences n many f the wrld’s mst famus landmarks. A UNESCO spkespersn said: “In many cases, it has led t vercrwding at specific landmarks, creating pressure n lcal facilities and cntributing t the degradatin f visitr experience.”(联合国教科文组织警告说,自拍式旅游对世界上许多最著名的地标产生了可怕的后果。一位联合国教科文组织发言人说:“在许多情况下,它导致特定地标处人满为患,给当地设施带来压力,并导致游客体验下降。”)”以及第三段中的“Fr example, in Venice, lcal fficials have had t cntend with disrespectful behavir frm visitrs wh see the city as little mre than a backgrund fr their phts. The cnstant ft traffic, smetimes accmpanied by reckless behavir, is damaging the city’s delicate facilities.(例如,在威尼斯,当地官员不得不应对游客的无礼行为,这些游客仅仅把这座城市看作是他们照片的背景。持续的人流量,有时伴随着鲁莽的行为,正在破坏这座城市脆弱的设施。)”可知,“自拍式旅游”的后果有导致特定地标处人满为患,给当地设施带来压力,导致游客体验下降,还会破坏城市脆弱的设施以及引发游客的无礼行为。故答案为 It leads t vercrwding at specific landmarks, creates pressure n lcal facilities, degrades visitr experience, damages delicate facilities and causes disrespectful behavir frm visitrs.
【42题详解】
考查细节理解。根据最后一段“Hwever, many f these places have a turism dependent ecnmy. Effrts t manage turism must cnsider nt nly ecnmic grwth but als the lng term preservatin f cultural landmarks and lcal cmmunities. But it is a difficult act t balance.(然而,这些地方中的许多都有依赖旅游业的经济。管理旅游业的努力不仅必须考虑经济增长,还必须考虑文化地标的长期保护和当地社区。但这是一个很难平衡的行为。)”可知,国家在采取措施解决自拍式旅游的负面影响时,需要考虑其经济效益,因为很多地方依赖旅游业经济。故答案为Cuntries shuld take steps t address the negative cnsequences f selfie turism withut cnsidering its ecnmic benefits.
Accrding t the text, many places have a turism dependent ecnmy, s effrts t manage turism must cnsider ecnmic grwth. Thus, cuntries shuld cnsider the ecnmic benefits f selfie turism while addressing its negative cnsequences.
【43题详解】
考查开放性试题。根据文章内容并结合实际,要尽量减少自拍式旅游的负面影响,可以采取以下措施:可以在热门景点设置专门的自拍区域,控制进入人数,同时加强对游客的教育,提高他们的文明意识。故答案为Set up dedicated selfie znes in ppular scenic spts, limit the number f peple entering these znes, and cnduct educatin campaigns t raise turists’ awareness f civilized behavir.
