Around the world, only half of adults understand that humans are causing climate change through activities that produce greenhouse ga
23、ses. But the picture is different for kids. Previous work has shown that children are more engaged and more knowledgeable than adults are about climate change. The question is, can we harness this to make a difference? “We had come across this idea that kids are capable of influencing their parents.
24、 And when we say influence, we really mean just teaching them.” said Daniella Lawson, a social scientist at NC State University. “Thats what we set out to really investigate: can we design things in such a way that kids are able to teach their parents about climate change. A parent is willing and ab
25、le to listen to their children speaking to them instead of just an adult on the street or a different climate communicator. ” To test the idea, Lawson set up a wildlife-based climate course for kids. This approach was based on previous courses, but the team added a twist: involving the parents. Firs
26、t, parents were invited to come along to an event that formed a part of the course. And thats not all. “So we also had students interview their parents. And this interview never mentioned climate change specifically. But it had questions like: how have you seen the weather change over the last five
27、to ten years? Do you believe the sea level is rising? How do you think that could impact our communities?” The study showed that the course did indeed increase concern about climate change: not just among the kids, but their parents too. And there were some surprising findings in the results. These
28、findings come at a time when more kids are becoming climate activists. And Lawson says that her study shows just how persuasive young peoples voices can be. 4. What does the underlined word “harness” in paragraph one refer to? A. Adopt. B. Accumulate. C. Review. D. Control. 5. What can be learned fr
29、om the first paragraph? A. Effective actions have been taken to deal with climate change. B. Most adults have realized the climate damages caused by themselves. C. Children better adults in the area of climate change and its effects. D. Adults and children will cooperate to deal with climate change.
30、 6. About climate change teaching, which one will Daniella Lawson most probably agree with? A. Kids can be taught by adults. B. Adults can learn from the kids. C. Climate communicators are more professional. D. Parents are more likely to consult street adults. 7. What can be learned about the course
31、? A. The course involved is completely new. B. Interviews and questionnaires are necessary in the course. C. Adults and kids study separately during the course. D. The course is relatively effective in climate education. 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. B 7. D 【解析】 本文为一篇说明文。说明了儿童比成年人更能参与气候变化的研究,也更能了解气候变化。 【4 题详解】 本

And there were s
34、ome surprising findings in the results.”可知, 课程实验的确引起大众对环境问题的关注,既包括成人也包括孩子,并且取得了很好的效果。故答案为 D。 C It was New Years night. An aged man was standing at a window.

And if youre a cheating student, thats six million essays already written for you. But plagiarism (剽窃)
46、 isnt really an effective wayjust type the text into a search engine and the game is over. Then what about having a ghostwriter compose your final essay? “Standard plagiarism software cannot detect this kind of cheating.” said Stephan Lorenzen, a data analyst at the University of Copenhagen. In Denm
47、ark, where hes based, ghostwriting is a growing problem at high schools. So Lorenzen and his colleagues created a program called Ghostwriter that can detect the cheats. At its central part is a neural (神经的) network trained and tested on 130,000 real essays from 10,000 Danish students. After reading
48、through tens of thousands of essays labeled as being written by the same author or not, the machine taught itself to tune into the characteristics that might tip off cheating. For example, did a students essays share the same styles of punctuation? The same spelling mistakes? By examining inconsiste
49、ncies like those, Ghostwriter was able to seek out a cheated essay nearly 90 percent of the time. The team presented the results at the European Meeting on Artificial Neural Networks, Computational Intelligence and Machine Learning. Theres one more aspect here that could help students. Your high school essays probably get better over time as you learn to write-and the machine can detect that. The final idea is to detect students who are at risk because their development in writing style
