In France, where there was no unified (統(tǒng)一的) measurement system at the national level, the situation was particularly terrible. The lieue (former measure of distance), for example, varied from just over 3 km in the north to nearly 6 km in the south. Throughout much of human history, man has been the measure of many, if not all, things. Lengths were divided up into feet and smaller units from the human hand. Other measures were equally characteristic. Mediterranean traders for centuries used the weight of grains of wheat to define (定義) their units of mass. The Romans used libra, forerunner of the pound, by referring to the weight of a carob (角豆樹) seed.2．犇犇閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的A、B、C和D四個選項中，選出最佳選項。故選C。 （4）考查推理判斷。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，以此類比，說明人工智能在醫(yī)療領(lǐng)域的影響力。故選C。 （2）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。此處screen意為“篩查”。 （1）考查詞義猜測。It will promote the health service greatly.D.It helps patients recover earlier.B.To introduce the topic of superputers.D.To show the influence of AI.B.D. cases.C.B.nurse（2）How do superputers help save lives?

Computers assess blood test results by picking up subtle changes in red and white blood cells, suggesting a patient is going downhill. Superputers which can analyse blood samples and predict which patients are likely to bee seriously ill could save tens of thousands of lives a year, it was revealed last night, according to The Daily Express.（英語）高三英語閱讀理解(科普環(huán)保)解題技巧及練習(xí)題及解析一、高中英語閱讀理解科普環(huán)保類1．犇犇閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的A、B、C和D四個選項中，選出最佳選項。 The artificial intelligence (AI) system, developed at University College London and set to be piloted in NHS hospitals later this year, will screen at risk patients so doctors can take early action to prevent death or serious illness. Prof Young, a consultant surgeon at Southend University Hospital, said: I am so excited about this form of technology. Instead of people getting sick or dying because they are not picked up in time, this will allow us to step in earlier which will save lives and an enormous amount of money. 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. 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.B.C.D.By storing blood samples.By analyzing patients39。By observing changes in blood cells.By assisting doctors with their operations.（3）Why did Professor Young mention the Industrial Revolution? A.To stress the importance of health care.C.To present the achievement he has acplished.（4）What do we know about the new technology? A.It has helped save thousands of lives.C.It is intended for patients with kidney diseases.【答案】 （1）C（2）C（3）A（4）C 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，介紹超級計算機(jī)能夠分析血樣并預(yù)測哪些病人可能會患上重病，每年可以挽救數(shù)萬人的生命。根據(jù)第二段中的“so doctors can take early action to prevent death or serious illness. ”以便醫(yī)生能夠及早采取行動，預(yù)防死亡或嚴(yán)重疾病，可以猜測出，人工智能將用于對高危病人進(jìn)行“篩查”。故選C。根據(jù)第三段中的“Computers assess blood test results by picking up subtle changes in red and white blood cells, suggesting a patient is going downhill.”可知，計算機(jī)通過檢測紅細(xì)胞和白細(xì)胞的細(xì)微變化來評估血液檢測結(jié)果。 （3）考查推理判斷。故選A。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)。 【點(diǎn)評】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，詞義猜測和推理判斷三個題型的考查，是一篇科研類閱讀，考生需要準(zhǔn)確掌握細(xì)節(jié)信息，并根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進(jìn)行分析，推理，從而選出正確答案。 The sizes of similarly named units could also
