【正文】 ods 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(jí)計(jì)算機(jī)能夠分析血樣并預(yù)測(cè)哪些病人可能會(huì)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(dòng)，預(yù)防死亡或嚴(yán)重疾病，可以猜測(cè)出，人工智能將用于對(duì)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(jì)算機(jī)通過檢測(cè)紅細(xì)胞和白細(xì)胞的細(xì)微變化來評(píng)估血液檢測(cè)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(xiàng)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(duì)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(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，詞義猜測(cè)和推理判斷三個(gè)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 differ. The king39。 Although John Wilkins, an Englishman, first put forward a decimal system (十進(jìn)制) of measurement in 1668, it was the French who in 1799 made it law. The Syst232。Unit233。 At a meeting in Versailles, France, on November 16th, 2018, the world39。s measurement bodies achieve at the meeting held in Versailles? will e up with seven new SI units. will set May 20th as a new international festival. will redefine four SI units including the kilogram. will decide on a new measure used in the laboratory.【答案】 （1）B（2）D（3）A（4）C 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，法國(guó)凡爾賽宮舉辦的國(guó)際計(jì)量大會(huì)，將對(duì)目前使用的國(guó)際單位制中的四個(gè)基本單位進(jìn)行重新定義，其中包括對(duì)千克的重新定義。根據(jù)第一段中的“man has been the measure of many, if not all, things ”以及下文提到的用作計(jì)量單位的手、腳、谷物重量和參考角豆種子重量的磅可知，本段主要講述了不同的東西被用作計(jì)量單位。 （2）考查推理判斷。s foot ...around a centimetre shorter than the Belgic foot”和“Greek, Egyptian and Babylonian versions of water in a fixed container varied from one another by a few kilos,以及The lieue (former measure of distance), for example, varied from just over 3 km in the north to nearly 6 km in the south”可推知，本段作者主要運(yùn)用了對(duì)比的寫作方法，把同一計(jì)量單位在不同國(guó)家之間或者在同一國(guó)家不同區(qū)域間的差異進(jìn)行了說明。 （3）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。me International d39。s (SI, or the metric system, as it is better known)developed from it and became the official measurement in all countries except Myanmar, Liberia and the United States ”可知，在所給出的四個(gè)國(guó)家中，只有法國(guó)采用國(guó)際單位制(SI)。故選A。根據(jù)最后一段中的“At a meeting in Versailles, France, on November 16th, 2018, the world39。故選C。4．犇犇閱讀下面文章，然后從題中所給的A、B、C、D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，選出每個(gè)問題的最佳選項(xiàng)。 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). 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.s biological diversity. 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.s a concern among conservationists (生態(tài)環(huán)境保護(hù)者) that people are losing touch with the natural world and that they39。s Wikipedia interest closely related to changes in nature. heavy work load.（3）How does Mittermeier feel about the search results? with Wikipedia39。s care about nature. about people39。 work. pushes people to solve difficult problems.【答案】 （1）D（2）B（3）C（4）A 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，牛津大學(xué)的一個(gè)國(guó)際研究小組發(fā)現(xiàn)，人們使用互聯(lián)網(wǎng)的方式與自然界的季節(jié)性運(yùn)動(dòng)密切相關(guān)。這一發(fā)現(xiàn)提出了監(jiān)測(cè)世界生物多樣性變化的新方法。 （1）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。故選D。根據(jù)第三段中的“Seasonal trends seemed to be widespread in Wikipedia behavior for many species of plants and animals.”可知在維基百科上，許多動(dòng)植物的行為似乎都有季節(jié)性趨勢(shì)。故選B。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的“it was really exciting and quite unexpected for me to see people39。故選C。根據(jù)最后一段中的“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.”可知Richard認(rèn)為通過使用這些大數(shù)據(jù)方法，我們可以將我們的注意力轉(zhuǎn)向現(xiàn)代保護(hù)中的難題:哪些物種和地區(qū)正在發(fā)生變化，哪些人最關(guān)心這些問題，哪些人能夠提供最多的幫助。故選A。5．閱讀理解 The Robot Activity Support System or RAS, uses sensors installed in a WSU smart home to determine where its residents are, what they are doing and when they need assistance with daily activities. It navigates (定位) through rooms and around obstacles to find people on its own, provides video instructions on how to do simple tasks and can even lead its owner to objects like their medication or a snack in the kitchen.RAS bines the convenience of a mobile robot with the activity detection technology of a WSU smart home to provide assistance in the moment, as the need for help is detected, said Bryan Minor, a postdoctoral researcher in the WSU School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. RAS is the first robot researchers have tried to incorporate into their smart home environment. They recently published a study in the journal Cognitive Systems Research that demonstrates how RAS c
