10.推理判断题。根据最后一段"Andsoitjustremovesaroadblockandabarriertoother

额的规定是有益的，因此他对此持支持态度。故选A。

11.主旨大意题。根据第二段“Butasthecountryattemptstocutcarbonemissions（排放），we

shouldrethinkwhattransportationandpublicspacelooklike,especiallyincities.Earlierthis

month,thecityofAustin,Texas,becamethelatestcommunitytoundoparkingminimums.（但随

着国家试图减少碳排放，我们应该重新思考交通和公共空间的样子，尤其是在城市里。本月

早些时候，德克萨斯州奥斯汀市成为最新一个取消停车最低限额的社区）”结合文章主要介绍

了德克萨斯州奥斯汀市为了减少碳排放，不再鼓励人们使用汽车，从而废除最低车位限额的

规定。故D项“应对气候变化的可行方法”最适合作为文章的标题。故选D。

12.D13.C14.D15.B

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了研究人员研发了ECOGEN深度学习工具，这

种工具可以生成逼真的鸟叫声，以增加代表性不足的物种的样本，用于帮助人们识别稀有鸟

类。

12.细节理解题。根据第二段“Toovercomethisproblem,researchersattheUniversityof

Moncton,Canada,havedevelopedECOGEN,afirst-of-its-kinddeeplearningtoolthatcan

generatelife-likebirdsoundstoenhancethesamplesofunder-representedspecies.Thesecanthen

beusedtotrainaudioidentificationtoolsusedinecologicalmonitoring.（为了克月艮这个问题，力口

拿大蒙克顿大学的研究人员开发了ECOGEN,这是一种首创的深度学习工具，可以生成逼

真的鸟鸣声，以增强代表性不足的物种的样本。这些可以用来训练用于生态监测的音频识别

工具。）”可知，新开发的深度学习工具ECOGEN被用来生成逼真的鸟鸣声，来训练用于生

态监测的音频识别工具。故选D。

13.推理判断题。第四段“Dr.NicolasLecomte,oneoftheleadresearchers,said:"Dueto

significantglobalchangesinanimalpopulations,thereisanurgentneedforautonomoustools,

suchasacousticmonitoring,totrackshiftsinbiodiversity.However,theAlmodelsusedto

答案第3页，共11页

自主工具来跟踪生物多样性的变化。然而，在声学监测中用于识别物种的人工智能模型缺乏

全面的参考库。”使用ECOGEN,您可以通过创建新的鸟叫声实例来支持AI模型来解决这

一差距。）”阐述了全球动物种群发生的重大变化迫切需要声学监测等自主工具来跟踪生物多

样性的变化，而使用ECOGEN可以通过创建新的鸟叫声实例来支持AI模型，以解决声学

监测中用于识别物种的人工智能模型缺乏全面的参考库的问题；由此可知，本段主要讲述了

研发ECOGEN这种工具的必要性。故选C。

14.推理判断题。根据第五段中“TheECOGENtoolcanalsobeusedtohelpconserveextremely

rarespecies.Forinstance,itcouldbeusedtohelpconservethecriticallyendangeredregent

honeyeaters（摄政蜜鸟），fromwhichyoungindividualsareunabletolearntheirspecies5songs

becausetherearen'tenoughadultbirdstolearnfrom.（ECOGEN工具还可以用于帮助保护极其

稀有的物种。例如，它可以用来帮助保护极为罕见的物种，比如极度濒危的摄政蜜鸟，在那

里，年轻的个体无法学习自己物种的歌声，因为没有足够的成年鸟类可以学习。）”可知，文

中提到摄政蜜鸟是为了举例说明ECOGEN工具还可以用于帮助保护极其稀有的物种；由此

可知，提到摄政蜜鸟是为了介绍ECOGEN这种工具的在帮助保护极其稀有的物种这一方面

的应用。故选D。

15.词义猜测题。最后一段划线词所在句"Aswellasitsversatility,akeyadvantageofthe

ECOGENtoolisitsaccessibility,duetoitbeingopensourceandabletobeusedonevenbasic

computers.（除了它的versatility,ECOGEN工具的一个关键优势是它的易访问性，因为它是

开源的，甚至可以在基本的计算机上使用。）”指出ECOGEN工具除了它的versatility,还有

一个关键优势是它的易访问性;前面几段介绍了ECOGEN这种工具的多种功能和应用范围，

ltAswellasitsversati
