Ada Smith, chairwoman of a non-profit organization Protect the Earth, wore green for a special event with school children in New York on Wednesday. The 40-year-old woman stood against the cool weather in a long green coat that has been in her wardrobe (衣柜) for years.
She wore the coat for the first time in 2019 during her husband Bill Smith’s tour to a national environmental conference, and she put on it again in her classic sustainable (可持续的) style. Ada’s recycled outfit was perfect for the occasion, all about the environment.
Ada and Bill headed to the Central Park, where they spent time brainstorming ideas with students on how to deal with environmental issues. Ada said, “ Education is such an important part of protecting our planet. We must inspire the next generation with the optimism, confidence and enthusiasm to chase those solutions and continue building a more sustainable future. ”
Ada and Bill helped the students generate more than 60 ideas to help the environment. Ada said, “ Young children already identify the climate as one of their biggest worries, and our organization aims to educate them that we can find the answers by working together. ”
Their visit came ahead of an award ceremony, in which five winners will be announced in the first round of the environmental prize pioneered by Ada. Ada and Bill will appear at the ceremony on the next weekend, when they will walk the “ green carpet ” with activists committed to environmental causes.
Though their time with the children was part of a larger initiative, environmentalist Steve Johnson said, “ They didn’t come there for a photo, but to sit, talk to and listen to kids. It is from the heart and people get that. ”
24. Why did Ada wear green?
A. To show a different dressing style. B. To make herself more attractive.
C. To make herself match the event. D. To fight against the cool weather.
25. What is the key to protecting the earth according to Ada?
A. Teaching young children to participate in it.
B. Asking young children to study together.
C. Building the confidence of the next generation.
D. Inspiring more students to wear green clothes.
26. What will Ada and Bill do on the next weekend?
A. Go to visit some students. B. Attend an award ceremony.
C. Set up a non- profit organization. D. Receive an environmental prize.
27. What did Steve think of Ada and Bill’s action?
A. It’s costly. B. It’s suspect. C. It’s interesting. D. It’s genuine.

University of Colorado Boulder researchers have developed a new tool that could lead to more efficient and cheaper technologies for capturing (捕获) heat-trapping gases from the atmosphere and turning them into beneficial substances, like fuel or building materials, meanwhile limiting global warming and avoiding disastrous impacts of global climate change.
The tool predicts how strong the bond will be between carbon dioxide and the molecule (分子) that traps it. It allows researchers to identify suitable molecular candidates to capture carbon dioxide from everyday air.
The goal of carbon capture and storage technology is to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and store it safely for thousands of years. But while it has been in use in the USA since the 1970s, it currently captures and stores a mere 0.1% of global carbon emission (排放) annually. To help meet the goal of carbon emission laid out by the IPCC, carbon capture and storage would have to rapidly increase in scale by 2050.
Current industrial facilities around the world rely on capturing carbon dioxide from a concentrated source, such as emissions from power plants. While these methods can bind (凝结) a lot of carbon dioxide quickly and efficiently using large amounts of certain chemical binders, they are also extraordinarily energy- intensive. This method is also quite expensive at scale to take carbon dioxide and turn it into something else useful, such as carbonates, according to Luca, fellow-elect of the Renewable and Sustainable Energy Institute ( RASEI ). Using the tool would free carbon capture facilities from being tied to concentrated source, allowing them to exist almost anywhere.
Being able to easily estimate the strength of chemical bonds also enables researchers to identify which binders will be best suited and offer a cheaper alternative to the traditional method for capturing and converting carbon into materials or fuel according to Haley Petersen, co-lead author of the study.
28. What can the new tool be used to do?
A. Stop climate change. B. Capture oxygen from air.
C. Help deal with climatic issues. D. Divide the molecule of carbon.
29. What does the underlined word “ it ” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. The atmosphere. B. The material from carbon.
C. The goal of carbon emission. D. The carbon capture and storage technology.
30. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about the traditional method?
A. Its disadvantages. B. Its functions.
C. Its working principle. D. Its practical application.
31. In which section of a newspaper can the text be found?
A. Art. B. Science. C. Fashion. D. Culture.
D
“ Humans and machine algorithms (算法) have complementary (互补的) strengths and weaknesses. Each uses different sources of information and strategies to make predictions and decisions, ” said Mark Steyvers, UCI professor of cognitive sciences. “ We show through experiments that humans can improve the predictions of AI even when human accuracy is below that of the AI, and vice versa (反之亦然). This accuracy is higher than combining predictions from two individuals or two AI algorithms. ”
To test the framework, researchers conducted an image classification experiment where human participants and computer algorithms worked separately to correctly identify disorderly pictures of animals and everyday items including chairs, bottles, bicycles and trucks. The human participants ranked their confidence in the accuracy of each image identification as low, medium or high, while the machine classifier generated a continuous score. The results showed large differences in confidence between humans and AI algorithms across images.
“ Human participants were confident that a particular picture contained a chair, for example, while the AI algorithm was confused about the image, ” said Padhraic Smyth, UCI Chancellor’s Professor of computer science. “ Similarly, the AI algorithm was able to confidently provide a label for the object shown, while human participants were unsure if the disorderly picture contained any recognizable object. ”
When predictions and confidence scores from both were combined using the researchers’ new Bayesian framework, the mixed model led to better performance than either human or machine predictions achieved alone.
“ While the past research has demonstrated the benefits of combining machine predictions or combining human predictions, this work shows a new direction in demonstrating the potential of combining human and machine predictions, pointing to new and improved approaches to human-AI cooperation, ” Smyth said.
“ The blend of cognitive science focusing on understanding how humans think and behave and computer science in which technologies are produced will provide further insight into how humans and machines can cooperate to build more accurate artificially intelligent systems, ” the researchers said.
32. Which of the following may the research’s findings agree with?
A. Humans have poor performance in making predictions.
B. Humans and machine algorithms should work together.
C. Machine algorithms have low accuracy in calculation.
D. Machine algorithms failed in the classification experiment.
33. What method did the researchers use during the research?
A. Comparison. B. Assumption. C. Giving examples. D. Analysing reasons.
34. What does the underlined word “ blend ” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Difference. B. Combination. C. Contradiction. D. Advantage.
35. What may be the best title for the text?
A. Humans are confident of their predictions
B. Humans can improve the predictions of AI
C. Develop mixed human- machine model for smarter AI
D. Identify the strengths of humans and machine algorithms
第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Why does our body require warm covers but not our face when it’s cold? The following are the reasons.
Firstly, don’t forget that your head does have some insulation (隔热). 36
Secondly, the air temperature near your head won’t be as cold as the room, because the microclimate around your head will be warmed by heat lost from your head and by your exhaled (呼出) breath. 37
Then there is physiology. Your sensation of thermal (热的) comfort is primarily driven by skin temperature. This depends on blood flow to the skin. In a cool environment, the hands and feet reduce their blood flow to very low levels. 38 So, as the temperature of the rest of the skin falls, that of the head remains higher. This is why you can lose plenty of heat via your head in the cold and should wear a hat.
There are also differences in the impact of different body regions on the overall sensation of cold and thermal comfort. The temperature of the hands and feet dominate your overall perception of how cold you are. 39 In a cooling environment, the temperature of the lower back and chest determines the loss of thermal comfort, and during mild exposure to cold, local warming of the chest, rather than the face, produces a strong sensation of comfort.
40 So, it is a good idea to keep the body warm in bed, then you can leave the head above the covers. Your nose may get cold, but it won’t stop you sleeping, and it is good to breathe fresh air!
A. Remember to put a hat on.
B. It often has hair and is insulated by it.
C. The latter is warmed in the lungs to about 33℃.
D. There is nothing worse than going out in the cold with wet hair.
E. This is why you can’t fall asleep until your feet warm up in bed.
F. In contrast, the blood flow to the head doesn’t decrease as much.
G. Also, remember that the face is adapted to exposing to the elements.
