22、 Scientists at the University of Oxford have developed new artificial intelligence(AI) software to recognize and follow up the faces of chimpanzees(黑猩猩)in the wild. The new software will allow researchers and wildlife conservationists to significantly cut back on time spent analyzing videos, according to the new paper published in Science Advances.
For species(物种)like chimpanzees, which have complex social lives and live for many years，getting photos of their behavior taken from short-term field research can only tell us so much，” says Dan Schofield， researcher and DPhil student at Oxford University’s Private Models Lab, School of Anthropology. “By taking advantage of the power of machine learning to unlock large video files , it makes it possible to measure behavior over the long term. ’’
The computer model was trained using over 10 million images(影像):from Kyoto University s Primate Research Institute(PRI) video files of wild chimpanzees in Guinea,West Africa. The new software is the first to continuously track and recognize individual a wide range of poses, performing with high accuracy in difficult conditions such as low lighting and poor image quality.
“Access to this large video file has allowed us to use deep neural networks to train models to a degree that was previously not possible,” says Arsha Nagrad, co-auther of the study and DPhil student at the Department of Engineer Science ,University of Oxford .” Additionally, our new software differs from previous primate face recognition software in that it can be applied to videos with limited manual intervention(人工干预)，saving hours of time. ”
The technology can be potentially used to monitor species for conservation Although the present application focuses on chimpanzees, the AI software provided will be applied to other species, and help drive the adoption of AI systems to solve(解决)a range of problems in the wildlife sciences.
【1】What is the purpose of developing the new soft?
A.To save wildlife researchers’ time spent in the labs.
B.To keep track of wildlife conservationists' behaviors.
C.To protect chimpanzees and help them to live longer .
D.To recognize and track the faces of wild chimpanzees.
【2】What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A.Getting photos. B.Analyzing videos.
C.A powerful machine D.The new AI software.
【3】What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about?
A.The working principle of the new software. B.Some limitations of using the new software.
C.The unique advantages of the new software. D.Controversial attitudes to the new software.
【4】What can be known from the last paragraph?
A.Technology advance is the final goal of science
B.The new software won’t just be applied to chimpanzees.
C.AI systems are widely used in the wildlife sciences.
D.The application of the new technology isn’t easy.
23、Night owls may be prone to heart disease and diabetes (糖尿病) than early birds because their bodies are less able to burn fat for energy, U.S. researchers say. People who rise early rely more on fat as an energy source. They are often more active in the day than those who stay up later, meaning fat may build up more easily in night owls, the scientists found.
The findings may help explain why night owls are at greater risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. They may also help doctors to identify patients early on who are more likely to develop the conditions.
The researchers divided 51 fat middle-aged adults into early birds and night owls, depending on their answers to a questionnaire on sleeping and activity habits. They monitored the volunteers’ activity pattern for a week and tested their bodies’ fuel preference at rest and while performing moderate or high-intensity exercise on a treadmill.
In Experimental Physiology, the team described how early birds were more sensitive to blood levels of the hormone insulin (胰岛素) and burned more fat than night owls while at rest and during exercise. The night owls were less sensitive to insulin and their bodies favored carbohydrates over fat as an energy source.
Prof Steven Malin, a senior author on the study and an expert in metabolism, said it was unclear why differences in metabolism were seen in night owls and early birds. But one possibility, he believes, is a mismatch between the time people go to bed and wake the next morning and the circadian rhythms (昼夜节奏) that govern their body clocks.
The findings could affect discussions around the health risks of night-shift work and even changing the clocks to suit daylight hours. “If we promote a timing pattern that is out of sync with nature, it could worsen health risks,” Malin said. “Whether dietary patterns or activity can help reduce these is an area we hope becomes clear in time.”
【1】How do night owls differ from early birds according to the research?
A．They are more able to burn fat.
B．They are less active in the night.
C．They are more likely to have some conditions.
D．They are less likely to build up fat in their body.
【2】How did the researchers group the volunteers?
A．By enquiring questions about their lives.
B．By recording their exercise levels.
C．By testing their bodies’ fuel preference.
D．By monitoring their activity pattern.
【3】What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A．A brief introduction to the research method.
B．A detailed account of the research findings.
C．Supporting evidence for the research results.
D．Reasonable doubt about the research process.
【4】What does the underlined phrase “out of sync” in Paragraph 6 refer to?
A．Out of order.
B．Out of control.
C．Not in agreement.
D．Not in connection.
24、阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。
No one would much like the idea of eating 61 pounds of tomatoes a day. But if their goodness was put into an easytoswallow pill that you were told might prevent strokes(中风) and heart attacks you would probably be putting in an order tomorrow.
Researchers believe they may have come up with just that after trials. The daily pill contains a chemical called lycopene which makes tomatoes red and is known to break down fat in the vessels(血管)．A Cambridge University study found taking the pills improved blood flow and the lining of vessels in patients with preexisting heart conditions. It also increased the flexibility(灵活性) of their vessels by 50 percent. The scientists believe it could limit the damage caused by heart disease—responsible for 180,000 deaths a year—and help cut the 49,000 deaths a year from strokes. They also hope it could benefit those with arthritis(关节炎), diabetes(糖尿病) and even slow the progress of cancer.
Each pill is equal to eating around 61 pounds of ripe tomatoes. Studies have shown eating a Mediterraneanstyle diet rich in tomatoes, fish, vegetables, nuts and olive oil can significantly reduce cholesterol(胆固醇) and help prevent cardiovascular disease.
Preliminary results from a twomonth trial, in which the pill was given to 36 heart disease patients and 36 healthy volunteers with an average age of 67, were presented at a meeting of the American Heart Association. It was shown to improve the function of the endothelium—the layer of cells lining blood vessels. It also improved their sensitivity to nitric oxide, the gas which causes the enlargement of the vessels in response to exercise.
Ian Wilkinson, head of Cambridge University's clinical trials unit, said，“These results are potentially very significant and it meets the goal, but we need more trials to see if they translate into fewer heart attacks and strokes.”
Further studies are planned, with researchers hoping it could offer a choice for heart disease sufferers who can not take the cholesterollowing drugs.
Mike Knapton, head of the British Heart Foundation, said, “Although this showed lycopene improved blood flow in people with heart disease, that's a long way from demonstrating that taking it could improve outcomes for people with heart disease. The best way to get the benefits of a good diet is to eat plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables.”
【1】What can we infer from Paragraph 1?
A. We can eat too much tomato food.
B. Tomatoes are helpful to strokes and heart attacks.
C. Tomatoes will lose healthy elements if they are put into pills.
D. We had better not eat tomatoes.
【2】We can learn from the passage that the pills ________.
A. are at the experiment stage
B. can cure all the disease
C. are widely used among patients
D. cost patients so little money
【3】Who were the volunteers by taking part in the trial?
A. Children. B. Youth.
C. Working people. D. Old healthy people.
【4】What was Ian Wilkinson's opinion on the trial?
A. Disappointing. B. Surprising.
C. Satisfactory. D. Terrible.

To distract herself from her _________, Ward liked to find and take _________ of bugs which she has loved since she was a little kid. Sometimes, if she found a beetle or a bee that she particularly liked, she’d _________ it on Facebook. Those posts attracted the _________ of a woman named Lila Higgins, who studies _________ at the local natural history museum. After seeing Ward’s pictures, Higgins _________ to Ward and invited her to go on a tour of the museum.
At that time Ward was emotionally fragile, and meeting someone new in that state made her nervous and teary. However, her passion for bugs outweighed her anxiety.
Upon Ward’s arrival at the museum, Higgins warmly _________ her and handed her a lab coat. She then led Ward through various _________. “I remember she opened up this freezer, like, ‘Come check this out,’ and it was full of dead bugs,” Ward recalled. “Although lifeless, these samples held significance for the natural history museum, serving as evidence to nature’s diversity. I was also impressed by how __________ Higgins was, which made me feel passionate about the work for the first time in a long time,” Ward continued. Noticing Ward’s __________, Higgins suggested she __________ at the museum for a few hours every week.
Despite her doubts, Ward decided to __________ Every Wednesday, she’d arrive at the museum. And with each volunteer __________, she felt a little bit better. “It gave me this sense of __________. It helped me reconnect with my love of __________ and nature that I’d always had,” Ward said.
Soon, Ward __________ her job and started working in science media. She now is the creator and host of a podcast called Ologies. Ward had Higgins on the show as her first __________. “Sometimes I wonder what would have happened if I hadn’t taken her up on her __________. What would my life have been like?
