Besides, the material will keep the house 17176。 Average humans can consume 15 or more drinks in plastic bottles a month. If you were born after 1978, and live until 80 years old, you will leave behind a minimum of 14,400 plastic bottles on this planet. These bottles take hundreds of years to break down into tiny pieces of plastic, never to pletely disappear. Most of the waste is consumed by fish and birds, which has shortened their lifetime greatly. 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解，代詞指代，推理判斷和主旨大意四個題型的考查，是一篇人物類閱讀，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。 （4）考查主旨大意。 （3）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第三段中的“So did trumpeter and bandleader, King Joe Oliver, who took the boy under his wing and taught him how to read music and work on his playing technique.”小號手兼樂隊指揮King Joe Oliver也這么做了，他把小男孩放在自己的側廳，教他如何閱讀音樂，學習演奏技巧。s jazz.”，故選C。根據(jù)第一段中的to create what would eventually bee today39。It describes the importance of talent in playing jazz.【答案】 （1）C（2）D（3）D（4）B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇記敘文，介紹了音樂人Louis Armstrong學習音樂的過程。It introduces one of the greatest jazz musicians.C.s the main idea of the passage?

This research provides opportunities to develop robots and puters so that they can bee more natural, and better at interpreting human social signals. The new findings could improve the way human beings interact with their puters and other hightech devices, even robots, allowing for more natural and realistic social interactions with machines, Loetscher said.The researchers fed the data into their Al algorithms and found that puters running the algorithms were able to record human eye movements and immediately determine a person39。 The eyes, they say, are the windows to the soul. And if that is true, puters and robots powered by sophisticated(復雜的)artificial intelligence algorithms(算法)may soon have the ability to peer into your soul. That is the result of a new study on the connection between eye movements and personality, conducted by neuroscience researchers based at the University of South Australia and Published in the scientific Journal Frontiers in Neuroscience.高中英語閱讀理解練習題及解析一、高中英語閱讀理解1．閱讀理解 A new study has shown how puters and robots powered by artificial intelligence can read human eye movements to read human personalities.Eye movements during an everyday task predict aspects of our personality, wrote the researchers, led by University of South Australia neuroscientist Tobias Loetscher, whose team follows 42 study subjects around the university campus recording their eye movements, then determines their personality traits(特點)with wellestablished questionnaires for determining personality type, according to a summary of the study published by the site Science Daily. s major personality traits, such as neuroticism, extraversion(外向)，agreeableness, conscientiousness, as well as perceptual(感知的)curiosity, the scientists wrote.
