Whale cmmunicatin has lng been a puzzle fr scientists, with their underwater sund — “click… click… click” — remaining largely unexplained. Hwever, thanks t the surprising abilities f artificial intelligence (AI), researchers frm a prgram can interpret the sunds f these amazing sea animals.
The prgram is called the Whale Translatin Prject (WTP), whse meaning is t knw what whales are saying. Its gal is clear but very difficult t achieve. Understanding the cmmunicatin f whales and ther animals culd inspire cnservatin (保护) effrts. Fr example, the discvery that humpback whales sing t each ther in the 1960s led t successful cnservatin activities and laws.
The WTP started when Gruber, a bilgist at Harvard University, turned t a cmputer scientist fr help abut dealing with a large amunt f data n whale sunds. They thught f applying machine learning, used fr imprving human language translatins, t whales. The sund f click, similar t a binary cde (二进制), is easy fr AI t analyze.
Scientists nce presented the sunds f a whale using a series f lines t shw the number f clicks per secnd. Nw, with the help f AI, Gruber can quickly turn the thusands f whale sunds frm hurs f recrdings int a new kind f pictures that lk like musical ntes. This methd helps t find tiny differences in the sunds. Gruber can use AI t analyze the differences and the specific cntext, like the behavir f mving t the surface and hunting fr fd, and thus understand the meaning f the whale sund easily. He can als discver hw whales interact, getting 99% right in predicting (预测) the next click.
This kind f wrk isn’t limited t whales. Suresh Neethirajan, a cmputer science and agriculture prfessr, studies hw farmers can use real-time bservatin t explain animal behavirs. He cllects data, such as bdy temperature, paired with recrded sunds and vides, t understand whether animals are cmfrtable r nt. With AI, he can recgnise sick animals quickly, imprving their well-being.
8. What is the purpse f mentining the discvery in the 1960s?
A．T stress the value f studying animal cmmunicatin.
B．T explain the difficulty f saving humpback whales.
C．T shw the success f prtecting the envirnment.
D．T intrduce the challenge f understanding whale language.
9. Hw can AI help accrding t paragraph 4?
A．It recrds whale sund quickly.
B．It prcesses sund data effectively.
C．It reads musical ntes crrectly.
D．It prmtes whale interactins directly.
10. What can we learn abut AI accrding t the last paragraph?
A．It cures diseases f animals.
B．It imprves farmers’ well-being.
C．It aims t change animal behavir.
D．It helps t understand animals’ needs.
11. Which is the best title f the passage?
A．A New Methd t Recrd Whales’ Living Behavirs
B．The Develpment f Whale Prtectin Laws
C．Hw Scientists Study Different Sea Animals
D．The Amazing Use f AI in Understanding Animal Sunds

In the field f wearable technlgy, a breakthrugh inventin has caught wrldwide attentin: a flexible skin-like sensr pwered by human sweat, develped by a jint research team frm Chinese and American universities. Unlike traditinal wearable devices such as smart watches that depend n batteries, this new thin-film sensr perates cmpletely n energy prduced by human sweat, marking a significant step tward self-pwered wearable electrnics.
The sensr, as thin as a piece f paper, can be cmfrtably attached t human skin withut any pressure r discmfrt. It is embedded with special enzyme materials that generate electricity by reacting with substances in human sweat, such as lactic acid and glucse. The electricity prduced is enugh t supprt the device’s nrmal wrk f mnitring bdy signals, including heart rate, bdy temperature and muscle tensin. What’s mre, the sensr can stre extra energy fr use when sweat is nt available, ensuring cntinuus and stable peratin.
One f the mst imprtant advantages f this sweat-pwered device is its envirnmental friendliness. Traditinal wearable electrnics rely heavily n lithium batteries, which cntain heavy metals and cause serius envirnmental pllutin after being abandned. In cntrast, the new sensr uses harmless bilgical materials and prduces n waste during use. It als avids the truble f frequent charging, bringing great cnvenience t users in lng-term health mnitring.
At present, the sensr has successfully passed labratry tests and preliminary clinical trials. Researchers have prved that it can wrk cntinuusly fr mre than 12 hurs n a small amunt f sweat and maintain high accuracy in data cllectin. Althugh the current versin is still designed fr medical mnitring, the team believes the technlgy can be applied t mre fields in the future, such as sprts training, virtual reality cntrl and daily health management.
Industry experts believe this sweat-pwered technlgy will reshape the future f wearable electrnics. It slves tw main prblems f traditinal wearables: battery limitatin and envirnmental pllutin. With further ptimizatin and mass prductin, this skin-friendly, self-pwered sensr is expected t becme a mainstream prduct in the next generatin f wearable devices, prviding safer and mre cnvenient health mnitring slutins fr human beings.
12. What is the biggest difference between the new sensr and traditinal wearable devices?
A．It is thinner and mre cmfrtable t wear.
B．It is pwered by human sweat instead f batteries.
C．It can mnitr mre bdy signals than smart watches.
D．It can be used fr a lnger time withut any maintenance.
13. What des the underlined wrd “embedded” in Paragraph 2 prbably mean?
A．Remved.
B．Implanted.
C．Cmpared.
D．Decrated.
14. What can be inferred abut the future f the sweat-pwered sensr?
A．It will be used in mre areas beynd medical mnitring.
B．It will cmpletely take the place f smart watches sn.
C．It will be prduced in small quantities due t high cst.
D．It will reduce peple’s ability t prduce sweat naturally.
15. Which f the fllwing is the best title fr the text?
A．A New Trend: The Future Healthy Life with Wearable Devices.
B．Envirnmental Prtectin in Mdern Electrnic Industry.
C．Hw t Imprve Battery Life f Wearable Technlgy.
D．A Sweat-Pwered Sensr: The Future f Wearable Tech.

Blm at Yur Own Pace
Exam papers were handed ut ne after anther and landed quietly n every desk. Staring at the red scres n my paper, I knew I failed t get the tp rank. Lw whispers spread arund me as the teacher read ut everyne’s rankings slwly. Disappintment welled up inside me, and I felt my dream f entering my ideal university gradually run away.
I had lng been pushing myself hard just t achieve high rankings. I rse early in the mrning and stayed up late studying every day, arranging all my time tightly fr different schl subjects. I nce firmly believed that taking first place cnstantly wuld prepare me fr a better future. This belief nce mtivated me greatly, yet endless pressure sn tired me ut. I ften felt eye discmfrt and mental tiredness, and the tp psitin always seemed impssible t reach.
Feeling lw, I left the classrm alne. The air was fresh with the smell f rain. I stpped at a quiet little garden beside the library, which I had never taken time t visit befre.
An elderly gardener was busy tending flwers and watering plants with great care. Only a handful f flwers were in blm (开花) amng green leaves. I culdn’t help questining whether all his effrts were wrthwhile.
Sensing my cnfusin, the ld man smiled and began t chat with me. He tld me that every flwer has its wn flwering time. Sme blssm early, while thers need mre time t grw. As lng as they get enugh sunshine, water and prper care, they will surely blm perfectly when the right time cmes. Instead f rushing fr results, we shuld learn t wait patiently and fcus n steady (稳步的) grwth.

“Nt sure when they flwer — isn’t it upsetting?” I asked.

Frm that day n, I decided t fllw his advice — less hurrying, mre grwing.

“Nt sure when they flwer — isn’t it upsetting?” I asked. The ld man shk his head gently and tld me every flwer has its unique grwth cycle. Sme blm fast while thers take mnths t accumulate strength. If we keep wrrying abut the blming date, we will ignre the beauty f their daily grwth. What matters mst is cnstant care rather than blind rush. His wrds struck me deeply. I realized I had been t eager fr tp grades and ignred my wn steady prgress.

I finally understd everyne blms at their wn pace, and steady grwth beats blind impatience.
