The key then must be retraining the workforce so people can do them. This must be the responsibility not just of the government, which can provide funds, but also of corporations and those who benefit most.(1)What is the main purpose of paragraph 1? A. Are you worried that these three types of jobs won39。 But not every job will be replaced by AI. In fact impressive feat is a useful example to show how artificial intelligence works—real AI. Both of Richard and AI take in massive amounts of data to achieve goals with unlimited memory and superman accuracy in a certain field.7.閱讀理解 故選D。所以短文主要是圍繞著海洋氧含量下降而展開(kāi)的。 (4)考查主旨大意。故判斷出海洋脫氧改變了一些動(dòng)物的自然領(lǐng)地。這些調(diào)整可能使動(dòng)物暴露在新的掠食者面前,或迫使它們進(jìn)入食物匱乏的地區(qū)。 (3)考查推理判斷。所以表面的極地冰水阻止氧氣下沉是海洋缺氧的原因之一。這個(gè)過(guò)程會(huì)形成一種冰蓋,它可以防止水流將地表水混合到海洋更深的深度。 (2)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。所以根據(jù)前兩段,科學(xué)家最擔(dān)心的是變暖的海洋中日益惡化的脫氧現(xiàn)象。一些最近的研究表明,在過(guò)去的50年里,一些熱帶地區(qū)的氧氣含量下降了驚人的40%。 (1)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。The Ocean Is Running Out of Breath【答案】 (1)A(2)C(3)A(4)D 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文,介紹了海洋氧含量下降是一個(gè)與氣候變化有關(guān)的令人擔(dān)憂(yōu)的趨勢(shì)。Ocean Warming Affects Food WebC.The Oxygen Levels of Marine LifeNot all ocean animals are bothered by the decreasing oxygen levels.D. natural territories.B.Salty water holds less gas in the increasingly warmer ocean.(3)What can be inferred from the passage? A.Global warming reduces the amount of oxygen in the air.C.The lack of attention to the warming of tropical oceans.(2)Which of the following is a reason for the oxygen loss in the ocean? A.The survival of predators and various marine animals.C. Aside from food web problems, animals face various other physiological challenges as their bodies adjust to lower oxygen levels. Chinese shrimp (蝦) move their tails less vigorously to preserve energy in lower oxygen environments. Some creatures, such as jellyfishes, are more tolerant of low oxygen than others are. But all animals will feel the impact of deoxygenation because they all have evolved their oxygen capacity for a reason, says Oschlies. Any drop in oxygen is going to damage survivability and performance, he says.(1)According to the first two paragraphs, what worries scientists the most? A. A warming ocean loses oxygen for two reasons: First, the warmer a liquid bees, the less gas it can hold. That is why carbonated drinks go flat faster when left in the sun. Second, as polar sea ice melts, it forms a layer of water above colder, more salty sea waters. This process creates a sort of lid that can keep currents from mixing surface water down to deeper depths. And because all oxygen enters the surface, less mixing means less of it at depth. Escaping predators (食肉動(dòng)物), digestion and other animal activities—including those of humans—require oxygen. But that essential ingredient is no longer so easy for marine life to obtain, several new studies reveal. 【點(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解,推理判斷和主旨大意三個(gè)題型的考查,是一篇科研類(lèi)閱讀,要求考生在捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息的基礎(chǔ)上,進(jìn)一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系,進(jìn)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(shí)驗(yàn)?zāi)康氖强纯带B(niǎo)類(lèi)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(jué)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 a new one.”引人注目的顏色可以用來(lái)偽裝,這種想法并不新鮮,排除C,故選D。catching colors could be used as a cover173。根據(jù)第一段中的“A good disguise keeps you hidden, right? Well, sometimes the best disguise is actually the most dazzling because research reveals that flashy metallic iridescence(金屬彩虹色) can visually puzzle predators, which allows colorful prey to survive another day.”可知彩虹色被動(dòng)物用來(lái)通過(guò)逃離捕食者而活得更久,排除A;根據(jù)第三段中的“Here I would like to point out that in some species, particularly those that display strong sexual dimorphism(雌雄兩性), such as birds of paradise or some butterflies or fishes, the occurrence of iridescence is most likely driven by sexual selection.”在這里我想指出的是,在某些物種中,尤其是那些表現(xiàn)出強(qiáng)烈兩性差異的物種,比如天堂鳥(niǎo)、孔雀,甚至在某些蝴蝶或魚(yú)類(lèi)中,彩虹色的出現(xiàn)很可能是由性別選擇所驅(qū)動(dòng)的。Shining colors as a sexual strategy【答案】 (1)D(2)C(3)C(4)B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文,介紹了彩虹色有助于生物隱藏。Metallic iridescent as the best disguiseC.A famous camouflage strategyWhy birds are not effected by iridescent insects.D.Whether there are any differences between bees and birds.B.If a circle, with a sugar reward, is iridescent, the bees may have difficulty finding itD.Bees can always tell the difference between a circle and an ovalB.D.catch the attention of their matesC.live a little longer by escaping their predator(捕食者)s173。s concealment? s concealment39。Coloration in the Animal Kingdom, already in 1909, that 39。up isn39。 The idea that eye173。 And in our research group we are of course interested in why this vivid metallic color is so widespread in nature. Karin Kjernsmo of the University of Bristol adds that in some cases the showy splashes of light are a sexual strategy. Here I would like to point out that in some species, particularly those that display strong sexual dimorphism(雌雄兩性), such as birds of paradise or some butterflies or fishes, the occurrence of iridescence is most likely driven by sexual selection. For example, in many of these cases it is the males that have these vivid iridescent colors and they use them in mate choice or they use them as a signal to attract mates.
