18、ards.22(8分)In 2013,a report from The Nero England Journal of Medicine showed that increased body weight is related to the death rate for all cancers. This is based on a study involving about 900,000 people, spanning many years.The study, started in 1992 by the American Cancer Society, included men a
19、nd women from all 50 states. The youngest participants were 30 years old, and the average age was 57. By December 2008, 24% of the participants had died, just a quarter of them from cancers. In analyzing the results, researchers attempted to take account of such potential factors as smoking drinking
20、 alcohol, taking aspirin and a wide variety of other factors that might otherwise affect the results. .The results are clear: the more you weigh, the greater your risk of dying of cancer will be (up to 52% higher for men and 62% for women). In men as well as women, the only cancers that did not have
21、 a strong connection with weight were lung cancer and-brain cancer. For women, the strongest correlation with weight was uterine cancer (子宫癌), which is 6.5 times higher for women with a BMI (Body Mass Index) of 40 or more. For men, it was liver cancer, which is 4.5 times higher in most obese (肥胖的) m
22、en.Smokers tend to be more successful in keeping weight off than non-smokers, slightly reducing the risk. But many of them dont have good lungs. Thus, in another way, they also face risks. As for why extra weight leads to excess cancer death rate, theres no clear agreement. But the decrease in vitam
23、in D in obese people seems a likely factor. Vitamin D is known to have a role in preventing cancer. Also, there is a simple fact that obesity makes the management of cancer more difficult. Although for now there is no simple answer to why obesity increases a persons cancer risk, all we know for cert
24、ain is that the risk is real.1、The passage is mainly concerned with the relationship between _.Adiet and cancer Bbody weight and cancerCsex and cancer Dsmoking and cancer2、The author develops the passage mainly through _.Atime order Bspace orderCanalysis and comparison Dfigures and examples3、The und
25、erlined word “spanning” in the first paragraph probably means “_”.Alasting BincludingChappening Dchanging4、According to the passage, what can we learn about the study?AThere is a clear explanation concerning why obesity leads to more cancers.BGenerally speaking, women face fewer risks of dying of ca
26、ncer than menCWomen with a BMI of 40 dying of uterine cancer are more than other women.DSmokers are still likely to face risks of dying of cancer though keeping weight off.23(8分)Kettles Yard, CambridgeThis modern-art gallery in a Victorian house was founded in the 1950s by Tate Jim and reopened in F

37、 same time not go too far and make something that isnt aesthetically(美学地)pleasing,explained Ahmed Elgammal.The art that was generated by the system was then presented to human judges alongside human-produced art without showing which was which.To the researchers surprise,the machine-made art scored
38、slightly higher overall than the human-produced art.Of course,machines cant yet replace the meaning thats infused in works by human artists,but this project shows that artist skill sets certainly seem duplicatable by machines.What will it take for machines to produce content thats infused with meani

43、r visual system processes the light. The below holes in each square are the same in size, yet the white hole looks bigger than the black hole.In the 1500s, Galileo Galilei noticed that some of the planets looked larger when viewed with the naked eye (肉眼) than they did when viewed through a telescope
44、, making the white light of Venus (金星) appear eight to ten times larger than Jupiter (木星) in the night sky. He knew something strange must be going on with his vision to cause this illusion, but he wasnt sure what it was. Luckily, scientists never stopped wondering, and in 2014, they figured it out.
45、Our visual system operates via two main channels: “on” neurons (神经元) that are sensitive to light things and “off” neurons that are sensitive to dark things. When it came to the dark “off” neurons, the researchers found that they responded predictably to dark shapes on a light background the greater
46、the contrast between the two, the more active these neurons were. But the light “on” neurons behaved unpredictably. Even with the same amount of contrast, light objects on a dark background caused a greater response in these neurons.This makes some sense, evolutionarily speaking. In the dark of nigh
47、t, youd want to be able to take in every bit of light you can get, so a visual system that enlarges light objects on a dark background could be very useful. However, its not that hard to see dark objects in the light of day. It has some effects in the colors of your clothes and in the appearance of
