A.The Zika virus will cause less serious birth defects during pregnancy in months.(2)Which of the following statements is NOT true? A.. A. would still be years away, experts advise. Zika has been spreading across Central and South America and, most recently, Africa. More than 60 countries and territories now have continuing transmission(傳播) of the disease, which is carried by mosquitoes. The virus causes serious birth damages during pregnancy and has been declared a global public health emergency.3.犇犇閱讀理解 現(xiàn)在,有證據(jù)表明這是正確的”,接著在下文用硬實(shí)證明了這一點(diǎn)。根據(jù)最后一段中的......this confirmed what had been observed in previous studies―dogs are more efficient at reading facial expressions of people that are the same gender as their owner可知,狗擅長(zhǎng)辨別與自己主人性別相同的人的表情,由此推斷,讓主人是女性的狗來(lái)辨別男性面部表情的圖片是比較困難的。 (2)考查詞義猜測(cè)。s Mood Research【答案】 (1)D(2)A(3)C(4)B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文,最新的實(shí)驗(yàn)發(fā)現(xiàn),即狗能夠識(shí)別人的面部表情的變化。 After some training like how to recognize small differences like the wrinkles between the eyes or the changes in their shape that acpany the happy or angry expressions, the dogs were mostly able to identify the correct expression not only on a familiar face but on a strange face. The researchers concluded the dogs were smart enough to read human emotions. Interestingly, the dogs were not provided with the entire face. Some dogs were shown only upper halves while the others observed lower halves. That39。故選C。根據(jù)第二段中的I think the potential of AI in healthcare like this is as big as the Industrial Revolution was—and signals a pletely new example in the way we manage healthcare. 楊教授認(rèn)為,人工智能在醫(yī)療保健領(lǐng)域的潛力與工業(yè)革命一樣大,以此類(lèi)比,說(shuō)明人工智能在醫(yī)療領(lǐng)域的影響力。 (2)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。 (1)考查詞義猜測(cè)。It helps patients recover earlier.B.To show the influence of AI.B. cases.C.spotfort The technology is the brainchild of Dr Vishal Nangalia, a consultant at the Royal Free Hospital in London. He used AI to analyse a billion stored blood samples from 20 different UK hospital trusts dating back up to 12 years. Computers assess blood test results by picking up subtle changes in red and white blood cells, suggesting a patient is going downhill. He found the technique forecast outes of patients with kidney problems with up to 95 per cent accuracy. Traditional methods highlighting serious patient concerns picked up as few as 16 percent of patients who went on to die. This gives us the opportunity not only to save lives but to prevent serious illness, making the health service not only safer but more efficient. Prof Young said, Instead of waiting for people to get worse, we will be able to treat them earlier.(1)What does the underlined phrase screen in Paragraph2 mean? A.C.By storing blood samples.By analyzing patients39。By assisting doctors with their operations.(3)Why did Professor Young mention the Industrial Revolution? A.To present the achievement he has acplished.(4)What do we know about the new technology? A.It is intended for patients with kidney diseases.【答案】 (1)C(2)C(3)A(4)C 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文,介紹超級(jí)計(jì)算機(jī)能夠分析血樣并預(yù)測(cè)哪些病人可能會(huì)患上重病,每年可以挽救數(shù)萬(wàn)人的生命。故選C。 (3)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的Instead of waiting for people to get worse, we will be able to treat them earlier. 可知,這項(xiàng)技術(shù)將能夠更早地治療患者,而不是坐等病情惡化,從而推斷,人工智能這一科技幫助醫(yī)生對(duì)疾病診療早預(yù)判,早介入,從而幫助挽救大量生命,將大大促進(jìn)衛(wèi)生服務(wù)。 They also found those being trained to read angry expressions took a longer time to learn. They guess it may be because dogs find angry faces disgusting, causing them to withdraw quickly. However, once the smart dogs realized they were getting rewarded, the trepidation seemed to disappear. In fact, the dogs had such a good time playing the puter game That scientists had a hard time keeping them away from the touch screens after the study was pleted.s happy or angry faces.(2)The underlined word trepidation in Paragraph 5 probably means ________. and hesitation and eagerness and happiness and sadness(3)According to the last paragraph, dogs with female owners ________. fond of the male faces uninterested in telling the emotions on the entire faces difficulty telling the moods on the faces of males only recognize emotions of females(4)What is the best title for this passage?

The US team say the results, published in Nature, are striking and should encourage research efforts. such as pregnant women 173。 Now, developing a vaccine for pregnant women to protect their unborn babies is an international research priority(優(yōu)先事項(xiàng)). US scientists from the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research, the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and Harvard Medical School tested two types of Zika vaccine in mice – one based on bits of genetic(基因的) code from the virus and another that is an inactive (and therefore harmless) copy of Zika. Both worked well, protecting every mouse that was immunised against the virus. In parison,
