2023版新教材高考英语一轮总复习：UNIT 4 单元主题训练Ⅰ.阅读理解2022·广州质检When my 8-month-old cries, I ask him if he's hungry, or wet or just needs a hug.“Babububuu，” he says.What I need is a baby cry translator. That's just what a team of researchers say they've developed.“Experienced nurses or pediatricians (儿科医师) can identify why baby is crying because they have experience，”says Lichuan Liu, a professor of electrical engineering at Northern Illinois University, who conducted the research. “We talked to them, and they mentioned that based on the cry's sound there're some clues (线索)．”So Liu set out to identify the features of cries that can help mark them as expressions of pain or discomfort. These features include differences in pitch (音高) and frequency. The team then developed an algorithm (算法) based on automatic speech recognition to detect and identify these features. This “cry language recognition algorithm” was trained on recordings of baby cries taken from a hospital. It uses compressed sensing, a process that reconstructs a signal based on incomplete data. It can identify a baby's cry against a background of, say, adult speech or loud television sounds. By classifying different cry features, like pitch, the algorithm can suggest whether the cry is due to sickness or pain, and identify the degree of urgency.The team had experienced pediatric care providers assess forty-eight baby cry recordings for probable cause of crying — hunger, tiredness, etc. They then compared these to the algorithm's assessments. The algorithm agreed with the humans 70% of the time. Generally, so-called “uncommon cry signals”— signs of pain or sickness — are high-pitched and very loud compared to ordinary crying.Liu and her team continue to train the technology for greater accuracy. They also plan to add more features, like the ability to identify and classify movement and facial expressions. This could help give a more detailed reading of baby's emotional (情感的) and physical state. They also hope to begin human trials in the near future.语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。

Vitamin B could help reduce the effects of the most dangerous type of air pollution, according to a new study published on Monday. In the first study of its kind, a team of international researchers looked into the damage caused by one of the pollutants that have the severest impact on health—PM 2. 5.They found that Vitamin B supplement could effectively reduce the impact of the tiny particles(颗粒)on the human body, although they stressed that the research was in its early stag es. According to the WHO, 92% of the world’s people are living in places where the PM 2. 5 level goes beyond the recommended level. So it’s urgent to find a solution to the problem.According to this study, published in the PNAS, 10 volunteers were initially exposed to clean air and given a placebo(安慰剂)to check their baseline responses. The group then kept on taking placebos for four weeks before being exposed to heavily polluted air from downtown Toronto, where an estimated 1, 000 cars passed every hour. The bad air was delivered to the volunteers through an “oxygen type” face mask. The experiment was then repeated, with each volunteer taking a Vitamin B supplement daily, made up of 2. 5 mg of folic acid, 50 mg of Vitamin B6, and 1 mg of Vitamin B12.Vitamin B6 can be found in liver, chicken, nuts and other things, and Vitamin B12 in fish, meat, eggs, milk and some cereals. The researchers found that four weeks of Vitamin B supplements reduced the damage of PM 2. 5 effects by 28-76%. The results emphasized how prevention at an individual level could be used to fight against the damage of PM 2. 5, the researchers said.【文章大意】本文主要通过一些实验告诉我们维生素B对减轻PM 2. 5对身体的伤害有什么样的功效。

You can't miss the latter as you drive into Leicester — the structure looks like it's wrapped in giant inflatable pillows. Inside, it houses Blue Streak and Thor Able rockets. Take in the full scale of them by riding a glass-sided lift up to the viewing platform. Elsewhere, there are six galleries with plenty of buttons to press and screens to touch. It's all under cover so it's a good place to visit on a rainy day!What about lunch?The Boosters Cafe serves reasonably priced hot and cold snacks and drinks (hot dog from ￡4.95, plus jacket potatoes, soups, sandwiches and salads) at the foot of the centre's two rockets.

AIn the mornings Alain Pepin works in a surveying office,doing clerical (文书的) work,but in the afternoons and at weekends he does something much more exciting—he is an underwater stuntman (特技演员).In this week’s article he tells us what a summer day in his life is like.What time do you get up?A summer day for me starts around 7 am.I have breakfast and ride my bike to work.I start work at 8 am.I spend all the morning in front of my network computer working until lunchtime.What do you do after work?Well,I leave the office at 1 pm and have lunch.If the weather is fine,I pack my equipment and set off to the location of the stunt.When I get there,I set up the equipment and get into the water.This is when the fun starts.I move about in and under the water in a wetsuit and helmet performing tricks.It’s quite tiring though,because each stunt is different and takes a different length of time.A photo shoot usually takes a long time to complete because everything has to be perfect.What do you do when you are not diving?I enjoy water-skiing,kayaking and snorkelling(带呼吸管潜泳).I spend most of my sparetime,however,planning,practicing and training for my stunts.How do you like working underwater?I love it.It can be a bit boring in the winter,though,when the weather is cold.It is difficult to get a swimming pool all to myself so I can practice.But when I’m diving,I really enjoy it.Every time I come home after work,I feel full of energy and I have a great sense of achievement.【语篇导读】本文是应用文。

2019版高考英语阅读理解一轮提升选练（23）李仕才AIf you think that running marathons will help you live a long and healthy life, new research may come as a shock.According to a recent scientific study, people who do a very strenuous workout are as likely to die as people who do no exercise at all.Scientists in Denmark have been studying over 1,000 joggers and non-joggers for 12 years.The death rates from the sample group indicate that people who jog at a moderate pace two or three times a week for less than two and a half hours in total are least likely to die.The best speed to jog at was found to be about 5 miles per hour.The research suggests that people who jog more than three times a week or at higher speeds of over 7 mph die at the same rate as non-joggers.The scientists think that this is because strenuous exercise causes structural changes to the heart and arteries (动脉).Over time, this can cause serious injuries.Peter Schnohr, a researcher in Copenhagen, said, “If your goal is to decrease risk of death and improve life expectancy, jogging a few times a week at a moderate pace is a good strategy.Anything more is just unnecessary, and it may be harmful.”The implications of this are that moderate forms of exercise such as tai chi, yoga and brisk walking may be better fo r us than “iron man” events, triathlons and long-distance running and cycling.According to Jacob Louis Marott, another researcher involved in the study,“You don’t actually have to do that much to have a good impact on your health.And perhaps you shouldn’t actually do too much.”1.The underlined word “strenuous” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to “”.A.hardB.regularC.practicalD.flexible答案:A解析:词义猜测题。
此处指像马拉松一样的锻炼,所以strenuous应与hard意思相近,表示“艰苦的,费力的”。
regular“定时的”;practical“实用的”;flexible“灵活的”。
2.The author presents some figures in Paragraph 2 to .A.suggest giving up joggingB.show risks of doing sportsC.provide supportive evidenceD.introduce the research process答案:C解析:写作目的题。
作者在第二段中采用了列数字的方法,是为了提供支持的证据,能更有力地说明第一段的研究结论。
3.According to the scientists, why is too much exercise harmful?A.It may injure the heart and arteries.B.It can make the body tired out.C.It will bring much pressure.D.It consumes too much energy.答案:A解析:细节理解题。
根据第二段的最后两句“Thescientiststhinkthatthisisbecausestrenuousexercisecau sesstructuralchangestoth eheartandarteries.Overtime,thiscancauseseriousinjuries.”可知,剧烈运动会导致心脏和动脉结构发生变化,从而有损健康。
4.What can be inferred from the text?A.Jogging is the best exercise.B.More exercise means a healthier life.C.Marathon runners are least likely to die.D.Proper exercise contributes to good health.答案:D解析:推理判断题。
根据最后两段可知,过度锻炼不仅没有必要,而且还可能有害,适当的锻炼会有助于健康。
B(2016·齐鲁名校高三第一次联考)These days a green building means more than just the color of the paint.Green buildings can also refer to environmentally friendly houses，factories，and offices.Green building means“reducing the effect of the building on the land”，Taryn Holowka of the U．S. Green Building Council (评议会) in Washington，D.C.，said.According to Holowka，building accounts for 65 percent of total U．S. electricity use.But green buildings can reduce energy and water use.Also，the buildings are often located near public transportation such as buses and subways，so that people can drive their cars less.That could be good for the environment，because cars use lots of gas and give off pollution.Green buildings are often built on developed land，so that the buildings don’t destroy forests.Marty Dettling is project manager for a building that puts these ideas into action.The Solaire has been called the country’s first green highrisebuilding.According to Dettling，“We’ve reduced our energy use by onethird and our water by 50 percent.”The Solaire cuts energy in part by using solar power.“On the face of the building we have solar panels (光板) which change the sun’s ene rgy into electricity，”Dettling explained.The Solaire also has lights that automatically turn off when people leave the room.In addition，the building has lots of windows，allowing people to use the sun for light during the day.The Solaire cuts water by reusing it.Not everyone is eager to move into a green building，however.Some people think that things like solar panels cost more money than more traditional energy sources.Anyhow，Holowka said，“It’s going to be big.”【解题导语】本文介绍了绿色建筑。
在建筑的寿命周期内，最大限度地节约资源(节能、节地、节水、节材)、保护环境和减少污染，为人们提供健康、适用和高效的使用空间，与自然和谐共处。
1．A green building means________.A．a building that uses no electricityB．a building that saves energy and waterC．a building occupying less landD．a greencolored building解析：选B。
