On Nov. 24, near Yellowstone's northeast entrance, Spitfire. a female grey wolf, was shot and killed by a hunter as she approached a group of cottages.
"It was a legal harvest." Abby Nelson, a wolf management specialist said. The circumstances are obviously a little bit harder for people to stomach, but that pack has showed signs of habituation (习惯). They just stand there and have no fear. Wolf hunters can easily pick the one they want. "
The carefree relation that some Yellowstone wolves have built with humans is reportedly attractive for hunters who look for an easy kill.
In the wake of yet another famous Yellowstone wolf meeting a violent end outside the park, officials are actively rethinking, how to manage wildlife habituation
Smith, a wolf biologist for Yellowstone says, “Now we re thinking of pounding them. "Park officials might use fireworks, and paintball or beanbag guns when they approach humans in the park. "If you get close to people, you're going to get attacked."
If you think this sounds cruel, you're not alone. Seeing these creatures from the roads that wind through the park not only allows tourists to witness something amazing. but also to reconnect with nature in a way that is better than any conservation campaign. But there's also a growing sense that the present policy of doing nothing isn't workings: more wolves will needlessly die and the broken record of hunters scoring easy kills will goon.
As Smith adds. urging people to keep wolves wild when meeting them halfway is a big ask. Sill, he's hopeful to preserve the world's best place to observe free rang ing wolves; it’s a policy change that tourists can be involved in.
“...Perhaps Spitfire’s death will accomplish some good and we'll all come together to a better job on managing crowds and roads and wolves in Yellowstone," Smith said.
28. What was the main reason for the death of Spitfire?,
A. Wildlife habituation.
B. Park officials’ carelessness
C. The nature of grey wolves.
D. The cruelty of the hunter.
29. What does the underlined word “pounding" in p aragraph 5 probably mean?.
A. Greeting
B. Protecting
C. Challenging.
D. Hitting.
30. What does Smith expect visitors to do in Yellowstone?
A. Be more friendly to wolves.
B. Avoid meeting grey wolves.
C. Keep away from wolves.
D. Force wolves away from them.
31. What is the main idea of the text?
A. The wolves in Yellowstone are out of control.
B. illegal wolf -hunting in Yellowstone is going on.
C. Yellowstone considers "attacking" wolves to protect them.
D. The wolves in Yellowstone are living in harmony with humans.
D
Almost every second of every day an older adult falls in the United States. That's approximately 29 million falls per year and nearly 27,000 deaths. according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Still in the stating stage, the Active Pelvis Orthosis (APO) system in Switzerland wants to make a lightweight, wearable exoskeleton (外骨骼) that could detect signs of balance loss and assist with balance recovery to keep the elderly wearer from falling, only when needed.
Other exoskeletons, either in development or on the market today, assist with movement and make heavy objects feel lighter. Mobility-impaired people can walk again. But none of these devices predict what the wearer is going to do next and take measures to correct an unsteady move.
The 3 kilogram (6.7 pound) exoskeleton was built entirely from scratch by the research team and is designed to be worn on the lower half of the. body. A waistband connects to two movable carbon fiber braces (支架), each one positioned on the outer side of a leg. Tiny motors and so-called “adaptive oscillators” (适配振荡器) in the computer circuits use a special process to detect the, wearer's unique paces. That part takes just a few minutes.
While wearing the exoskeleton, a person may feel the braces and the motors pushing slightly on their legs. If their paces go against normal, the motors create a force in the braces that cause them to stiffen up and push a little more strongly against the legs, which provides stability.
In the next three years, the APO hopes to develop something that is commercially available.
32. Why is the new exoskeleton invented?
A. To slower users' walking paces.
B. To improve users’ walking ability
C. To promote users' sense of balance.
D. To prevent users from falling
33. What’s the feature of the new exoskeleton?
A. It keeps users warm.
B. It is worn on the back.
C. It helps users move around.
D. It corrects an unsteady move.
34. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about?
A. How the new exoskeleton works.
B. Where the braces are positioned.
C. How long it takes to detect the user's paces
D. What the new exoskeleton was built from.
35. What is the purpose of the author in writing this text?
A. To call on care for the elderly.
B. To introduce a new invention.
C. To advertise new device
D. To bring hope for the elderly.

The movement was so sudden(23)________several passengers felt sick and had to use airsickness bags.(24)________you might guess,that’s not good thing to happen in a narrow space because it only serves to increase the discomfort of the situation. About twenty minutes into the adventure,the entire airplane became very quiet.There was now a sense of anxiety and fear that could be distinctly noticed.Every passenger simply held on for dear life… (25)________one.A baby was having a good time!With each bump of the aircraft,he(26)________let out a giggle of happiness.As I observed this,I realized that he didn’t know he was supposed to be afraid and worried about his safety.He(27)________thought about the past nor about the future.Those are (28)________we grown-ups have learned from experience.He was enjoying the ride because he (29)________(not teach)to fear it.(30)________(understand)this,I took a deep breath and sat back into my seat,pretending I was really on a roller coaster.I smiled for the rest of the flight.I even managed to giggle once or twice,which is much to the chagrin of the man sitting next to me holding the airsickness bag.

2018届上海市各高中学校高三英语试题分类汇编--阅读理解B篇(带答案精确校对)
Section B Directions：Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (B) With the coming of big data age, data science is supposed to be starved for, of which the adaption can point a profound change in corporate competitiveness. Companies, both born-in the digital era and traditional world are showing off their skills in data science. Therefore, it seems to have been creating a great demand for the experts of this type. Mr Carlos Guestrin, machine learning professor from University of Washington argues that all software applications will need inbuilt intelligence within five years, making data scientists—people trained to analyze large bodies of information — key workers in this emerging “cognitive” technology economy. There are already critical applicat ions that depend on machine learning, a subfield of data science, led by recommendation programs, fraud detection system, forecasting tools and applications for predicting customer behavior. Many companies that are born digital—particularly internet companies that have a great number of real-time customer interactions to handle—are all-in when it comes to data science. Pinterest, for instance, maintains more than 100 machine learning models that could be applied to different classes of problems, and it constantly fields request from managers eager to use this resource to deal with their business problem. The most important factor weighing on many traditional companies will be the high cost of launching a serious machine-learning operation. Netflix is estimated to spend ＄150m a year on a single application and the total bills is probably four times that once all its uses of the technology are taken into account. Another problem for many non-technology companies is talent.Of the computer science experts who use Kaggle, only about 1000 have deep learning skills, compared to 100,000 who can apply other machine learning techniques, says Mr Goldbloom. He adds that even some big companies of this type are often reluctant to expend their pay scales to hire the top talent in this field. A third barrier to adapting to the coming era of “smart” applications, however, is likely to be
