11、omen shooting up by more than 20cm on average, and Iranian men gaining 16.5cm. A global study looked at the average height of 18-year-olds in 200 countries 1914 and 2014. The results show that while Swedes were the tallest people in the world in 1914, Dutch men have risen from l2th place to claim to

12、p spot with an average height of 182.5cm. Larvian women, meanwhile, rose from 28th place in 1914 to become the tallest in the world a century later, with an average height of 11.8cm. James Bentham, a co-author of the research says the global trend is likely but once you average over whole population

13、s, genetics plays a less key role, he added.But while height has increased around the world, the trend in many countries of north and sub-Saharan Africa causes concern, says Elio Riboli of Imperial College. While height increased in Uganda and Niger during the early 20th century, the trend has rever

14、sed in recent years, with height decreasing among 18-year-olds.One reason for these decreases in height is the economic situation in the 1980s, said Professor Alexander. The nutritional and health problems that followed the policy of structural adjustment, he says, led to many children and teenagers

15、 failing to reach their full potential in terms of height.Bentham believes the global trend of increasing height has important implications. How tall we are now is strongly influenced by the environment we grew up in, he said. If we give children the best possible start in life now, they will be hea

16、lthier and more productive for decades to come.1、What can be learned from Paragraph I?AThe increase in womens height is much bigger than mens in the last century.BThe last century has seen a great increase in peoples height in most countries.CGenetics plays a key role in the increase of peoples heig

18、nomic situation of some countries should be improved.BEnvironment protection should be attached great importance to.CThe global trend of increasing height should be closely watched.DChildrens proper nutrition and healthcare should be guaranteed.22（8分） Shark attacks not only disturb beach activities,

19、 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 developed a system called Shark Spotter. It combines artific

20、ial intelligence (AI), computing power, and drone (无人机) technology to identify and warn lifesavers to sharks near swimmers. The project is a cooperation between the University of Technology Sydney and The Ripper Group, which is pioneering the use of dronescalled “Westpac Little Ripper Lifesavers”in

21、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, and conduct rescues. Developed with techniques known as “de

22、ep 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, different types of boats, surfers, and swimmers.If a shark is detec

23、ted, 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. In an emergency, the drone is equipped with a lifesaving f

24、lotation 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 Ripper Lifesavers was used to rescue two young swimmers caught

25、 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 a win-win for both marine life and beachgoers. This unique tec

26、hnology 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.1、A Shark Spotter is _.Aa solution to monitor sharksBan equipment to identify lifesaversCa technology

Is there a way to turn back the aging process?For centuries, people have been looking for a “fountain of youth.” The idea is that if you

36、 find a magical fountain, and drink from its waters, you will not age. Spanish explorer Juan Ponce de Leon searched for waters with magical powers in the early 1500s. But what he found instead is the American state of Florida.Researchers in New York did not find an actual fountain of youth, but they

37、 may have found a way to turn back the aging process. It appears the answer may be hidden right between your eyes, in an area called the hypothalamus.The hypothalamus is part of your brain. It controls important activities within the body. Cai Dongsheng, a professor at the Albert Einstein College of

38、 Medicine, found that hypothalamus stem cells influence how fast aging takes place in the body as well. He also reported that when the hypothalamus starts aging, so does the body.“So when hypothalamus function is in decline, particularly the loss of hypothalamus stem cells, and this protection again

39、st the aging development is lost, it eventually leads to aging.”Using this information, the researchers began trying to activate (激活) or energize the hypothalamus in laboratory mice. They did this by injecting (注射) the animals with stem cells. Later, the researchers examined tissues and tested for c

40、hanges in behavior. They looked for changes in the strength of the animals muscles. They also studied the social behavior and cognitive (认知) ability of the mice.The researchers say the results show that the treatment slowed aging in the animals. Cai says injecting middle-aged mice with stem cells fr

41、om younger mice helped the older animals live longer.These findings could lead to new ways to help doctors identify and treat any number of health issues concerning aging problems. If the mice can live longer, does that mean people could have longer lives? This is the question Cai and his team are t

45、ed out an easy way to get fed. Instead of seeking out the fish them- selves, the clever whales chase down fishing boats and steal the entire catch of the day, as much as 20,000 to 30,000 pounds.Killer whale “thieves” are not a new phenomenon. Japanese fishermen have reported being followed by killer

46、 Whales since the 1950s. However, the increasing frequency of whale fish theft in the Bering Seas continental shelf is now threatening the livelihood of fishermen.Paul Clampitt, a local fisherman, says his crew tried to keep the whales away with loud sounds. Though that worked for a short time, the

47、whales now consider the noise “ a dinner bell”. Jay Herbert tried using sonar to keep the whales away. He also met with little success. According lo the experienced fisherman, the smart whales deliberately seek out longliners (延绳钓渔船）, and, all the first opportunity presented to them, steal the fish,

48、 leaving behind just the lips of the fish caught!NOAA Fisheries biologist John Moran is not surprised at the whales thieving skill. The expert says whales are skilled hunters who can distinguish the sounds of different boats and even recognize the sounds of the operating system that places the fishi

49、ng equipment into the ocean. The expert jokes, “ Grabbing a fish off a line is nothing.” Since they are social animals, it is easy for whales to pass their skills on to others.Killer whales are not the only whale species that have learned to steal from humans. In the Gulf of Alaska, sperm whales als

50、o conduct similar thefts. Longline fishermen off Washington, Chile, Australia, Hawaii, and many other countries have reported similar incidents. There is, unfortunately, no easy fix to this problem. One of the possible solutions is using pot traps similar to the ones used to catch crabs. However, th

51、e cost of switching from longline to pot fishing is too high, especially for small-scale fisheries. There is also no guarantee that the catch will be safe from the intelligent whales which, many fear, will eventually figure out how to open the pots!1、What concerns fishermen in Alaska?AThe killer wha

52、les eating their fish. BThe decrease of numbers of whales.CThe killer whales chasing their boats. DThe high cost of operating fishing boats.2、What may be the means to protect fishermens catch at present?ALoud sounds. BPot traps.CSonar. DDinner bells.3、What can we know from the text?AWhales can learn
