25、s that fill the night sky and wondered whether were alone in the universe. Indeed, the question of whether there s life out there has been something humankind s been asking itself for countless years. But thanks to Chinas Five-hundred-meter 5 页 Aperture Spherical Telescope (FAST), the answer to this

26、 question may come a lot sooner than we expected. The telescope has a huge round reflector, which measures 500 meters across and has a perimeter （周长）of 1.6 kilometers. Because of its great size, it would have been both difficult and inefficient to get FAST to move like a regular telescope. Instead,

27、FASTs designers came up with a great solution: its surface is made up of 4450 panels which can be individually adjusted. This clever design feature allows scientists to detect radio signals from any angle with a great degree of accuracy. “Panels can change their positions through connected wires and

28、 parallel （关联的） robots. We can control their position with an accuracy of 1 mm,” Zheng Yuanpeng, chief engineer of the telescopes panel project, told Xinhua News Agency. FASTs engineers also had the task of finding a suitable location. As any interference would affect its ability to detect distant r

29、adio waves, it needed to be built in a remote area. Luckily, the perfect spot was found in the beautiful mountains of Guizhou Province. “There are three hills about 500 meters away from one another, creating a valley that is perfect to support the telescope,“ Sun Caihong, chief engineer of FAST s co

30、nstruction, told Xinhua. And although it wasnt yet fully operated, FAST had already made great discoveries by October 2017. Since 1967, only around 2000 pulsars （脉冲星） have been discovered, yet FAST had detected six more by October 2017. Once FAST is fully up and running, we may finally have the answ

To explain why there is life in universe. C. To remind readers to think about the life in space. D. To emphasize the question that should be a

32、nswered. 29. What can we know from Paragraph 2? A. The telescope is made up of many panels. B. The area of FAST is about 800 square kilometers. C. The engineer can handle FASTs position accurately. D. The individual panel helps scientists catch radio signals. 30. Why was FAST built in Guizhou? A. Be

33、cause Guizhou is a remote province. B. Because Guizhou has an ideal valley. C. Because Guizhou has beautiful mountains. D. Because Guizhou has the ability to build it. 31.

34、. D Shark attacks not only disturb beach activities, but can affect associated tourist industries. Shark nets are a common solution to preventing shark attacks on beaches, but they cause dangers to sea ecosystems. Seeking a cost-effective way to monitor beach safety over large areas, we have develop

35、ed a system called Shark Spotter. It combines artificial intelligence (AI), computing power, and drone (无 人机) technology to identify and warn lifesavers of sharks near swimmers. The project is the cooperation between the University of Technology Sydney and The Ripper Group, which is pioneering the u

36、se of drones called “Westpac Little Ripper Lifesavers” in the search and rescue movement in Australia. SharkSpotter can detect sharks and other potential threats using real-time aerial imagery. The system analyses video from a camera attached to a drone to monitor beaches for sharks, send warnings,

37、and conduct rescues. Developed with techniques known as “deep learning”, the Shark Spotter system receives imagery from the drone camera and attempts to identify all objects in the scene. Once certain objects are detected, they are put into one of 16 categories: shark, whale, dolphin, rays, differen

38、t types of boats, surfers, and swimmers. If a shark is detected, Shark Spotter provides both a visual sign on the computer screen and an audible warning to the operator. The operator confirms the warning and sends text messages from the Shark Spotter system to the Surf Life Savers for further action

39、. In an emergency, the drone is equipped with a lifesaving flotation pod (漂浮仓) together with an electronic shark repellent (驱逐装 置) that can be dropped into the water in cases where swimmers are in severe trouble, trapped in a rip, or if there are sharks close by. In January 2018, the Westpac Little

40、Ripper Lifesavers was used to rescue two young swimmers caught in a rip at Lennox Head, NSW. The drone flew down the beach some 800 meters from the lifeguard station, and a lifesaving flotation pod was dropped from the drone. The complete rescue operation took 70 seconds. We believe Shark Spotter is

41、 a win-win for both marine life and beachgoers. This unique technology combines dynamic video image processing AI and advanced drone technology to creatively deal with the global challenge of ensuring safe beaches, protecting environments, and promoting tourism. 32. A Shark Spotter is _. A. a soluti

A. efficient in saving lives B. smart in driving sharks away C. effective in detecting sharks D. practical over the whole sea area 35. What is the authors attitude towards the future of SharkSpotte

44、r? A. Negative. B. Doubtful. C. Optimistic. D. Objective. 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。 Try This at Home!
