a WeTransfer software engineer in Holland decided to use his skills to solve the problem Instead of setting up a good old catflap 猫洞 on his door he went for a more hightech solution involving artificial intelligence motiondetection sensors face recognition software and a messaging app It may be overkill but Arkait z claims that it only took him a few hours to do it as all the hardware and software he used are readily available It all started a few years ago when Garro and his wife spotted a cat in their back balcony Not knowing if it had been abandoned lost by its owner or simply homeless they took it in but also posted some pictures of it around their neighborhood in case someone was looking for it We found out that the cat had an owner just a few houses away and he was very happy to share the cat with us Now it has two families who love him Arkaitz said So he has developed a schedule to come at around specific times The problem was that neither Garro nor his wife could simply stand by the door waiting for it to show up so he came up with a device 装置 made up of a minicomputer complete with a camera that would use motiondetection 运动检测 and imagerecognition AI software to automatically identify the cat and then message him so he could let the animal in We just want to be notified when he is around Arkaitz explained When it detects movement it sends the picture to a recognition software which checks against the identity of the cat based on previous imagery of the cat It took me just a few hours to put all the pieces together and the software up and running but some more time after to fine tune the software to be able to recognize the cat Arkaitz said but in the end it proved to be effective 24 What did Arkaitz Garro think of his invention A It was

or a great reader or popular Sindler said They just want to be loved equal opportunity he added Cameron and the other dogs on campus always fastened with a rope and with their owner go a long way toward improving students social and emotional wellbeing he said They reduce tension and ease anxiety and inspire happy feelings from students They bring out some superbasic and important emotions he said and are especially helpful for children and adults who struggle in social communication Children often came from challenging backgrounds many lived in poverty or had to travel through dangerous neighborhoods to get to school or shared a toocrowded home When these emotionally needy children met the dogs they relaxed and were more prepared to learn Just as important dogs on school grounds set a posit ive welcoming tone They help preserve the school climate that is accepting supportive and curious Dogs are one way to hold on to that Sindler said adding that schools should be fun and exciting and dogs can be a big part of that For Sindler including Cameron was all part of an effort to create a safe environment where learning could flourish 28 What makes the dog Cameron really

deliberation according to a Yaleled analysis of statements from more than 50 recognized civilian heroes published online Oct 15 in the journal PLOS ONE We wonder if people who act with extreme altruism 利他主义 do so without thinking or if conscious selfcontrol is needed to override negative emotions like fear said David Rand a Yale psychologist who authored the study with Ziv G Epstein of Pomona College in Claremont Calif Our analyses show that strongly extreme altruists report acting first and thinking later Rand who studies human cooperation got hundreds of participants to read 51 statements made by individuals who have received the Carnegie Hero Medal given to civilians who risk their lives to save strangers Participants analyzed those statements for evidence of whether they acted intuitively or with deliberation An analysis of text by computer did the same What you don t find in the statements is people who say I thought it over and I decided it was the right thing to do Rand said Instead most responded like Christine Marty a 21yearold college student who rescued a 69year old trapped in a car during a flashflood I m thankful I was able to act and not think about it Marty said in a statement The findings are consistent with Ra nd s previous studies of cooperation in economic games where participants choose whether or not to share resources In these studies subjects forced to think carefully tend to be selfish while those using intuition 直觉 are more likely to be cooperative Rand cautions that intuitive responses are not necessarily genetically hardcoded He believes people learn that helping others is often in their own longterm selfinterest and develop intuitive habits of cooperation rather than possessing an inborn tendency preserved byevolution The best evolutionary outcome is to be able to learn adapting to whether you were born into a situation where it is typically good to cooperate or to be selfish he said 32 What conclusion was drawn from David Rand s study A Heroes help without thinking B Heroes offer help on purpose C Heroes have a better selfcontrol D Heroes think carefully before they act 33 How did Rand conduct his study A By analysing heroes life stories B By interviewing heroes on the spot C By studying heroes opinions about their behaviors D By keeping track of heroes conscious selfcontrol 34 What can we infer about Rand s opinion on heroes behavior A It is inborn B It is acquired C It is wellplanned D It is halfborn and halfmade 35 Which of the following can be the best title for the text A How heroes stepped out of danger B How heroes help others out of trouble C Heroes don t deliberate before they act D Heroes deserve the Carnegie Hero Medal 第二节 共 5 小题 每小题 3 分 满分 15 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
