【正文】 ngs in life rather than the negative things, while younger people remember the positive and negative equally well. The dominant psychological theory to explain this is that older people are aware of their limited time left, so they prioritize positive emotional experiences. But about a decade ago, I worked with biologist Robert Trivers on his idea that there was an evolutionary basis for older people39。 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解，推理判斷和主旨大意三個題型的考查，是一篇科教類閱讀，要求考生在捕捉細節(jié)信息的基礎上，進一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關系，進行分析，推理，概括和歸納，從而選出正確答案。s First Digital Teacher Appears in Classroom最符合本文的標題。s first kids to be “taught” by a digital teacher”可知，從新學年開始，新西蘭奧克蘭的小學生將成為世界上第一批被機器人老師教的孩子。 （4）考查主旨大意。根據(jù)最后一段中的“However, regardless of how popular it bees, Will is unlikely to replace human educators any time soon.”可知，Ravishankar認為它不會在短期內(nèi)代替人類教育工作者。故選D。 attention, but also allows the program39。 （2）考查細節(jié)理解。由此可知，特殊之處在于機器人老師教他們。根據(jù)第一段中的“They became the world39。New Zealand Will Replace Teachers in Classrooms【答案】 （1）A（2）D（3）D（4）B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，介紹了一款智能機器人走進小學課堂，為孩子們講授能源可持續(xù)發(fā)展。The World39。The World39。Disapproving.（4）What might be the best title for the passage?

It also shows new ways to see how much people care about nature, and which species and areas might be the most effective targets for conservation. And not just birds. Mittermeier and his team surveyed nearly billion Wikipedia search records, for 32,000 species, across 245 languages. They also saw variable search rates for insects, horsetails and flowering plants. Seasonal trends seemed to be widespread in Wikipedia behavior for many species of plants and animals. An international team of researchers from the University of Oxford have found that the way people use the Internet is closely tied to the seasonal movements in the natural world. Their online species searches follow the patterns of seasonal animal migrations (遷徙).（英語）高考英語閱讀理解(科普環(huán)保)技巧和方法完整版及練習題一、高中英語閱讀理解科普環(huán)保類1．犇犇閱讀下面文章，然后從題中所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中，選出每個問題的最佳選項。 Migratory birds (候鳥) flood back to where they reproduce every spring. That migratory behavior is acpanied by some human behavior. In Englishlanguage Wikipedia (維基百科), the online searches for migratory species tend to increase in spring when those birds arrive in the United States, said the lead author John Mittermeier. This finding suggests new ways to monitor changes in the world39。 Mittermeier is encouraged by the search results. He mented, I think there39。re not interacting with native species anymore. And so in that sense, it was really exciting and quite unexpected for me to see people39。 Richard Grenyer, Associate Professor from the University of Oxford, says search data is useful to conservation biologists, By using these big data approaches, we can direct our attention towards the difficult questions in modern conservation: which species and areas are changing, and where are the people who care the most and can do the most to help.（1）What have researchers found about species searches? strengthen ties among people. affect the animal movements. differ in language backgrounds. reflect animal migration seasons.（2）What is the purpose of writing Paragraph 3? summarize the research process. further support the research findings. show the variety of species searches. present researchers39。s service. about Wikipedia behavior. at people39。s not getting close to nature.（4）Why does Richard think such search data is useful? helps to aim at conservation targets. increases interest in big data approaches. keeps track of trends in biologists39。他們的在線物種搜索遵循季節(jié)性動物遷徙的模式。它還展示了一種新的方式來了解人們有多關心自然，以及哪些物種和地區(qū)可能是最有效的保護目標。根據(jù)第一段中的“Their online species searches follow the patterns of seasonal animal migrations (遷徙).
