(该项目创建了神经元连接的“接线图”，并发现了4581种细胞类型，其中许多位于研究较少的大脑区域。全世界的研究人员都在使用这张图来研究果蝇摄食行为的神经元控制)”可知，果蝇的大脑结构是复杂的精密的，通过研究其复杂的大脑结构，科学家可以更好地了解人类大脑是如何工作的，以及控制神经系统的基本机。由此猜测intricate应是“复杂的，精密的”之意，和D项意思相近。故选D项。【10题详析】细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Volunteerswerecrucialinlabelingthemapanddouble-checkingitsaccuracy.Theprojectinitiatedwithelectronmicroscopyimagesoftheflybrain,whichwereusedtotrainAItocreateawiringdiagram.Fact-checkingmillionsofdatapointswaslabor-intensive;thus,projectco-leaderSebastiandevelopedEyeWire,aninteractivegame-likeplatformwheretop-performingvolunteerswerepicked.(志愿者在给地图贴上标签和再次检查其准确性方面发挥了至关重要的作用。该项目以苍蝇大脑的电子显微镜图像开始，这些图像被用来训练人工智能创建接线图。对数百万个数据点进行事实核查是一项劳动密集型工作；因此，项目联合负责人塞巴斯蒂安开发了EyeWire，这是一个类似互动游戏的平台，可以挑选出表现最好的志愿者)”可知，研究人员开发EyeWire是为了选择候选人。故选B项。【11题详析】主旨大意题。根据第二段“Brainmappingisoneofthemostcomplextasksinneuroscience,whereminorerrorscansignificantlyaffectoutcomes.Remarkably,somecontributorstotheprojectwerevolunteersfromdiversebackgrounds,teamingupwithneuroscientiststoconfirmresultsproducedbyartificialintelligence(AI),showcasinghowamateursciencecanenhancedata-hungryresearch.(大脑绘图是神经科学中最复杂的任务之一，其中微小的错误可能会显著影响结果。值得注意的是，该项目的一些贡献者是来自不同背景的志愿者，他们与神经科学家合作，确认人工智能（Al）产生的结果，展示了业余科学如何增强数据饥渴的研究)”以及最后一段“Increasingly,amateurscientistsareinvolvedinmoreresearchareas,helpingfilldatagapTheuniqueaspectofthefly-brainprojectisthatcitizenscientistsassistfull-timescientistsconfirmingtheirfindings,amodelthatmayhavebroaderapplicationsinourdata-richworld.(越来越多的业余科学家参与到更多的研究领域，帮助填补数据空白。苍蝇大脑项目的独特之处在于，公民科学家帮助全职科学家确认他们的发现，这种模式在我们这个数据丰富的世界可能会有更广泛的应用)”可知，本文主要介绍了果蝇大脑连接组映射项目的相关信息以及业余科学家在数据密集型研究中的重要作用，所以B项“解开苍蝇大脑的秘密：协调一致的科学和业余力量。”是本文最好的标题。故选B项。DIfyouproudlybelieveyou’rerightinadisagreementwithafriendorcolleague,anewstudysuggestswhyyoumayactuallybewrong.Researchersfoundthatpeoplenaturallyassumetheyhavealltheinformationtheyneedtomakeadecisionorsupporttheirposition,evenwhentheydonot.Theresearcherscalleditthe“illusionofinformationadequacy”.“Wefoundthat,ingeneral,peopledon’tstoptothinkwhethertheremightbemoreinformationthatwouldhelpthemmakeamoreinformeddecision,”saidstudyco-authorAngusFletcher,aprofessorofEnglishatTheOhioStateUniversity.“Ifyougivepeopleafewpiecesofinformationthatseemstolineup,mostwillsay‘thatsoundsaboutright’andgowiththat.”Thestudy,publishedinthejournalPLOSONE,involved1,261Americanswhoparticipatedonline.Theyweresplitintothreegroupswhoreadanarticleaboutafictionalschoolthatlackedadequatewater.Onegroupreadanarticlethatonlygavereasonswhytheschoolshouldmergewithanotherthathadadequatewater;asecondgroup’sarticleonlygavereasonsforstayingseparateandhopingforothersolutions;andthethirdgroupreadalltheargumentsfortheschoolsmergingandforstayingseparate.Thefindingsshowedthatthetwogroupswhoreadhalfthestory—eitherjustthepro-mergingorjusttheanti-mergingarguments—stillbelievedtheyhadenoughinformationtomakeagooddecision.“Thosewithhalftheinformationactuallyshowgreatercertaintyintheirdecisiontomergeorremainseparatethanthosewhohadthecompletestory,”Fletchersaid.Thesediscoveriesenhanceourunderstandingofnaïverealism,whereindividualsperceivetheirpersonalviewpointsasthefactualreality,asFletchernoted.Researchonnaïverealismoftenfocusesonhowpeoplehavedifferentunderstandingsofthesamesituation.“Yourfirstmovewhenyoudisagreewithsomeoneshouldbetothink,‘IstheresomethingthatI’mmissingthatwouldhelpmeseetheirperspectiveandunderstandtheirpositionbetter?’”Fletchersaid,“That’sthewaytofightthisillusionofinformationadequacy.”12.Whatwill“illusionofinformationadequacy”makeusdo?A.Believewehaveenoughinformation.B.Judgeifwehaveenoughinformation.C.Seekallinformationtomakeadecision.D.Hesitatetodecidewithoutfullinformation.13.Inthestudy,whoaremoreconfidentindecision-making?A.Criticalinformationreaders.
