A. Today, eSports are growing at a rapid pace thanks to advance in technology and the arrival of streaming services like Twitch which have exposed video game petitions to a new audience due to their extensive reach. ESports, short for electronic sports, is one of the growing industries in the world, with prizes totaling around $25 million up for grabs in some tournaments. ESports are professional multiplayer video game petitions. Any video game with a strong petitive element is considered eSports. The petition models itself after traditional professional sports in several ways: it uses corresponding tournament formats, involves player contracts, and is governed by regulations. The athletes who pete in eSports petitions are gamers． 【點評】本題考點涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，推理判斷和主旨大意三個題型的考查，是一篇科技類閱讀，考生需要準(zhǔn)確捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息，同時根據(jù)上下文進行邏輯推理，概括歸納，從而選出正確答案。再根據(jù)最后一段中的“The next step in the research will be to test RAS39。 （4）考查主旨大意。 （3）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的“The next step in the research will be to test RAS39。根據(jù)章第二段中的“ The Robot Activity Support System, or RAS, uses sensors （傳感器）equipped in a WSU smart home to determine where its residents are, what they are doing and when they need assistance with daily activities”可知機器人活動支持系統(tǒng)（RAS）使用WSU智能家居中配備的傳感器（傳感器）來確定其居民在哪里，他們在做什么以及何時需要日?；顒拥膸椭f明傳感器起到了重大的作用，故選A。Older adults have benefited from RAS.【答案】 （1）A（2）B（3）C（4）B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，介紹了一款由美國華盛頓州立大學(xué)的科學(xué)家們研發(fā)的機器人，可以幫助那些癡呆或有身體缺陷的老年人在家里過上自立的生活。Smart Home Tests first elderCare robot.C.Elderly people leave the nursing home.D.Optimistic.B.Doubtful.s Minor39。D.It can locate people and do any task.B.Through their daily activities.（2）What can we know about RAS? A.Through a mobile robot.B.Through sensors. While we are still in an early stage of development, our initial results with RAS have been promising, Minor said. The next step in the research will be to test RAS39。 Currently, an estimated 50 percent of adults over the age of 85 need assistance with every day activities such as preparing meals and taking medication and the annual cost for this assistance in the US is nearly $2 trillion. With the number of adults over 85 expected to triple by 2050, researchers hope that technologies like RAS and the WSU smart home will relieve some of the financial strain on the healthcare system by making it easier for older adults to live alone. A robot created by Washington State University (WSU) scientists could help elderly people with dementia (癡呆) and other limitations live independently in their own homes. 【點評】本題考點涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，詞義猜測和主旨大意三個題型的考查，是一篇科研類閱讀，要求考生在捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息的基礎(chǔ)上，進一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進行分析，推理，概括和歸納，從而選出正確答案。本文主要講述了人類以及其他動物對狼的恐懼對維持健康、平衡的生態(tài)系統(tǒng)是有益的，因為食草動物不會過度繁殖，從而保護了植物的生長。故選B。根據(jù)最后一段中的“The research is one more piece of evidence for why protecting these top predators is important not just for wolves as a species, but for hundreds of species at every level of an ecosystem.”可知，這項研究再次證明了為什么保護這些食肉動物不僅對狼這個物種很重要，而且對生態(tài)系統(tǒng)的各個層面的物種都很重要。故選D。 （2）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第三段中的We were really surprised at that可知，黃石公園在意想不到的方面從重新引入狼中獲益。The introduction of wolves in Yellowstone National Park is a success.【答案】 （1）A（2）D（3）B（4）A 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，研究表明人類以及其他動物對狼的恐懼對維持健康、平衡的生態(tài)系統(tǒng)是有益的，其中黃石公園灰狼的引進就是一個典型的例子。The fear of wolves put them in danger of disappearing.C.It provides evidence that wolves are endangered animals.（4）What is the main idea of the passage? A.It helps prove the importance of protecting wolves.C.To study what good wolves can do to ecosystems.（3）What is the significance of the research? A.To show how wolves benefit from ecosystems.C.Accept.（2）For what purpose was a documentary made? A.Notice.Understand.Expect. To learn more about just how wolves are beneficial, a short documentary from Quest explains how the presence of wolves influences the behavior of deer, which eventually makes entire ecosystems more biologically diverse and healthy. In this documentary, biologist Aaron Wirsing explored why wolves and other top predators （捕食者）were needed for diverse ecosystems to develop. Using a simple video camera, Wirsing is gaining a unique view point on predatorprey relationships and changing the way we think about wolves.t adopted ecologicalprocess management—allowing natural ecological processes to take place with least human intervention. Yellowstone has benefited from the reintroduction of wolves in ways that we did not anticipate, especially the plexity of biological interactions（互動） in the park, explained Mark Boyce, a professor in the Department of Biological Sciences. We were really surprised at that and we39。 Wolves strike fear into the hearts of many species, humans included. Our fear of them has brought them to the edge of dying out, as we have cruelly killed them as petitors and troublemakers. But researchers are discovering that the very fear they put into prey（被捕食者）species is exactly what helps make ecosystems（生態(tài)）healthy. 【點評】本題考點涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，推理判斷和主旨大意三個題型的考查，是一篇科研類閱讀，要求考生在捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息的基礎(chǔ)上，進一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進行分析，推理，概括和歸納，從而選出正確答案。 （4）考查主旨大意。實驗?zāi)康氖强纯带B類的視角是否能提供幫助。 （3）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的“It seemed that the strikingly iridescent surfaces on our targets visually broke up the otherwise recognizable shape of the targets, which made them hard to distinguish.”似乎我們的目標(biāo)上驚人的彩虹表面在視覺上打破了原本可以辨認(rèn)的目標(biāo)形狀，這使得它們很難區(qū)分。t
