If someone created a flying machine able to track you down by listening for your voice，you might be terrified．But what if you were trapped in ruins after a natural disaster and the first responders couldn't locate you？Maybe then a human-seeking drone (无人机) wouldn't be such a terrible idea．That concept is the focus for engineers at Germany's Fraunhofer FKIE Institute，who've built a drone to find people by detecting human screams．
“The human-seeking drone would be ideal for responder post-disaster situations，such as earthquakes，hurricanes and wildfires，”said Macarena Varela，one of the lead engineers．“They could hover (盘旋) over an area that rescue crews have difficulty getting to and locate exactly where people may be trapped．”
Locating people by sounds presents its share of challenges．An auditory (听觉的) system would need to tell human cries from sounds that often happen in nature，such as animal calls and wind．It might also need to recognize patterns associated with kicking，clapping or other ways people try to get the attention of rescue teams．
Engineers took those situations into account when building out their concept drone．They recorded themselves screaming，tapping and other noises that might be a sign of people in trouble．Then，they analyzed each sound frequency to find common signatures and used them to train artificial intelligence software．They also worked to remove the noise created by the drone and other environmental sounds．
Once the software part was completed，the team placed tiny digital microphones under the drone and used signal processing techniques that enabled them to track where human noises are coming from．The microphones also enhanced the volume and clearness of the speech．So far，they have conducted successful open field experiments，finding that the drone can estimate a victim's location within a few seconds of picking up sounds．
Next，they would like to add a higher frequency microphone to a drone to acquire more audio sound signals．The idea is to pick up noises from hundreds of meters away，Varela said．In the real world，a victim's location data might one day be sent wirelessly to emergency crews carrying a tablet．

C 篇(限时7分钟)
Some of the most attractive pictures to come out of the Alaska earthquake are the photos that show slope(斜坡) failures，in which parts of formerly solid hills caved in，tore or let loose．And if there happened to be a road or building on top of the slopes that failed，the result was horrible．
Slopes can fail without earthquakes，as the result of pouring rain or weathering．But the shaking caused by a quake—particularly a large one like what occurred near Anchorage on Friday—can either speed up the process or create entirely new failures that wouldn't have otherwise happened．
Several slope failures were documented in the Anchorage area in the hours after the earthquake on Friday，the most interesting of which was on Vine Road southwest of Wasilla．It's as if someone came along with a large destroying ball and dropped it on Vine Road，which wrinkled like a broken egg．
Scientists seemed surprised at how many slope failures occurred as a result of the 7.0-magnitude(震级) quake．The center of the quake was deep，at 27 miles below the surface—a key reason why the damage in Anchorage was relatively light．Such an earthquake would be expected to produce shaking over a large area，but probably with reasonably modest top ground accelerations，Friday's earthquake would certainly be felt，but the surface of Earth wouldn't be moving badly enough to produce widespread landslides．
Photos from Alaska show a lot of lateral(横向的) spread，in which the ground is torn open．Whatever is on top of the ground at the place is also torn in half afterwards，like highways or buildings．The buildings surrounding the spread are also at risk of damage because of the force of the ground spreading out away from the tear．There's also documentation of block spread，in which part of the ground breaks off a hill and slides away completely．

8．What do we know about slope failures？(　　)
A．They may cause earthquakes．
B．They usually happen with a road on top．
C．They always happen with earthquakes．
D．They may pull parts of the hills apart．
√
A　[推理判断题。根据第二段中“But the shaking caused by a quake...speed up the process or create entirely new failures that wouldn't have otherwise happened．”可知，地震会加速山体滑坡的发生或造成原本不会发生的山体滑坡，由此推断出地震对山体滑坡有巨大的影响。故选A。]
9．What can we infer from paragraph 2？(　　)
A．Earthquakes have great effects on slope failures．
B．Most slope failures occur after the pouring rain．
C．Earthquakes result in slope failures immediately．
D．Slope failures occur mainly with large earthquakes．
√
B　[推理判断题。根据第四段“Scientists seemed surprised at how many slope failures occurred...Friday's earthquake would certainly be felt，but the surface of Earth wouldn't be moving badly enough to produce widespread landslides．”可知，科学家认为这次地震造成的滑坡比预期的要少。故选B。]
10．What did the scientists think of the Alaska earthquake on Friday？(　　)
A．It produced shaking over a large area．
B．It caused fewer slope failures than expected．
C．It wasn't felt for its deep center．
D．It didn't produce landslides．
√
D　[细节理解题。根据第五段最后一句“There's also documentation of block spread，in which part of the ground breaks off a hill and slides away completely．”可知，在块状扩散的情况下，部分地面脱离山丘，完整地滑落。故选D。]

课时数智作业(二十)
Ⅰ．阅读理解(限时7分钟)
(2024·安徽黄山模拟)
July was the hottest month on record globally．High temperatures and serious wildfires have swept across the Northern Hemisphere．Oceanic heat waves are damaging the world's third-largest coral reef off Florida．And as the levels of greenhouse gases continue to increase，it means many even hotter summers lie ahead．
Last week，the United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres coined a new term．The time of“global warming”has ended，he announced，and the time of“global boiling”has arrived．
But critics have strongly disagreed with the phrase．At one level，“global boiling”is clearly an overstatement，but“global warming”is now far too weak a description．Many climate scientists have pushed for the term“global heating”to be used in preference．Similarly，phrases such as“climate crisis”haven't received enough attention．That's because many of us still feel we haven't seen this crisis with our own eyes．
But that is changing．In the past few years，extreme weather and relevant events have struck many countries．Australia's Black Summer brought wildfires that burned an area the size of the United Kingdom．Germany suffered serious flooding in 2021．The 2022 flood in Pakistan flooded large parts of the country．China has seen both droughts and floods．Terrible droughts have hit the Horn of Africa for many years．India has stopped rice exports due to damage from heavy rain．
Critics of climate action often complain about what they see as the overuse of“crisis talk”．If everything is a crisis，nothing is a crisis．
When Guterres uses deeply impactful phrases，he's not inviting us to imagine a Hollywood-style disaster．What he's hoping is to make people listen and act—now we can see what climate change looks like．
Are there better phrases to describe this？Possibly．Take the challenge yourself：can you think up a brief，correct phrase to cover worsening local-and-regional-scale droughts，fires，typhoons and floods；damage to crops and food safety；water shortages；existential threats to coral reefs and low-lying communities？You can see how hard it is．
【语篇解读】　本文是一篇新闻稿。文章主要讲述了“全球变暖”的描述已经过时，“全球沸腾”的时代已经到来。
√
1．What does the underlined word“coined”in paragraph 2 mean？

√
3．What can we infer from paragraph 4？(　　)
A．Climate crises are worsening．
B．Several crises will be solved．
C．People will face food shortages．
D．People are taking effective measures．
A　[推理判断题。由文章第四段第一、二句可知，气候危机正在恶化。故选A项。]
4．What is Guterres'hope in using deeply impactful phrases？(　　)

When I was a kid，I took travelling with my parents for granted．Sure，they paid for everything．But they were basically no different from teachers taking us to a field trip．　1　．For example，they took us to Denali National Park instead of Disney World．And we sometimes stayed at hotels without pools．And they never let us buy anything from the SkyMall catalog (目录)．
Of course，some 20 years later，I consider travelling with my parents，now both in their 60s，to be the utmost privilege．　2　．Neither am I，and every day that passes brings us closer to our last．Fortunately，since graduating from college，I've been able to cover some serious ground with each of them．
Together my dad and I have looked for the Loch Ness monster in Scotland，photographed wildlife in Grand Teton National Park，and most recently，survived the famously dangerous Drake Passage．Meanwhile，my mom and I have stayed at a $9/night treehouse hostel in Mexico，eaten at a Michelin-starred vegetarian restaurant in Vienna，and most recently，road-tripped through three states．
　3　．After all，even if you're the apple that fell right under the tree，travelling with the people who raised you isn't always easy．“　4　，”says Alexis Sherry，a New Jersey-based travel agent．Still，Sherry is seeing an increasing number of clients requesting vacations for more than one generation．They can be difficult to plan，but so far she says she's had no“disasters，”and often，her clients come back closer than ever．
“Our parents are our earliest attachment bonds，”says Katie d'Autremont，a licensed professional adviser based in Bozeman，Montana．“It can be healing and fun to rekindle that bond in our adult years and as our adult selves．”She sees travelling together as the perfect opportunity for getting to know each other for who we are now，with“now”being the key word．　5　．
A．Those memories are golden
B．I know they're no longer unbeatable
C．After all，as humans，we're always evolving
D．That's not to say that all of our trips have been without flaws
E．To my brothers and me，they seemed to be bent on limiting our fun
F．Planning a vacation can be considerably tricky when it involves demanding parents
G．There are always challenges as we are dealing with different physical abilities and interests

(2024·湖南浏阳一中模拟)
I watched my dad scowl (绷着脸) as he listened to the voice coming through the telephone receiver．I heard him say，“Yes，Miss Beisner，”and“I understand what you're saying，Miss Beisner．I appreciate you sharing this information．We'll see what we can do about the situation．Thank you for calling．Goodbye．”
Miss Beisner was my first-grade teacher，and I loved her．I thought she felt the same about me，but now I was beginning to wonder．The tone of Dad's voice，the redness in his cheeks，and his repeated clenching and unclenching his fists made it pretty clear．There was no warm and good news from the teacher's call．
As I was deciding whether I should lock myself in my bedroom for the rest of my life or run away from home，Dad hung up the phone．“Jacquie，come here and sit down．We need to talk．”
Uh-oh．When Dad said，“We need to talk，”it meant he needed to talk，and I needed to listen．
I shuffled (拖着脚走) over to the well-worn brown chair in the corner of the living room，plopped down，and waited to hear the nature of my crime．
Dad told me that Miss Beisner thought I was bright but not working up to my ability．She said I had strong verbal skills but weak study habits．Translation：I never closed my mouth，and I seldom opened a book．Apparently，my failure to memorize the addition facts，or even attempt to，was more than she was willing to put up with．Hence，the telephone call．
Dad ended our one-way conversation with a verbal outline for his plan of attack．Bubbles，our Toy Manchester Terrier，was going to teach me math．Silently，I thought，no way is any dumb dog going to teach me how to add，not even our beloved Bubbles．Out loud，I said，“How？”
Dad summoned Bubbles from her bed near the stove and commanded her to sit．“Bubbles，”Dad said，“how much is five plus three？”Bubbles let out eight loud，crisp barks．
I was incredulous (满腹狐疑的)．I couldn't understand how a dog could add，and I was more than a little embarrassed by the fact that the family dog was smarter than me．
注意：续写词数应为150左右。
After that，I threw myself into math with newfound determination．________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
One day，I asked Dad whether Bubbles really knew how to add．______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【语篇解读】　本文话题为生活趣事类。文章主要讲述了作者和家里的一只名叫“泡泡”的宠物狗一起学数学的故事。
【写作指导】
1．段落续写：①由第一段首句内容“在那之后，我带着新的决心全身心投入到数学中。”可知，本段可描写作者决定全身心投入数学学习的经过。
②由第二段首句内容“有一天，我问爸爸‘泡泡’是不是真的会加法。”可知，本段可描写爸爸解释“泡泡”实际上并不具备解决数学问题的能力，及自己的感悟。
2．续写线索：决定全身心学习数学——练习加减法——成绩提高——问爸爸“泡泡”是不是真的会加法——爸爸解释原因——感悟
【参考范文】
After that，I threw myself into math with newfound determination． Instead of hanging out with my friends after school，I would sit at the kitchen table，textbooks splayed out before me，and practice addition and subtraction．I thought to myself，“If Bubbles，a dog，could learn math，then surely，I could too．”With each passing week，I could see the fruits of my labor．Occasionally，during our study sessions，Dad would call Bubbles over．She would bark out the correct answers to simple math problems—it was a unique，interactive way for me to assess my progress．I swelled with pride at my achievements，my parents were overjoyed，and Miss Beisner's smile returned．
One day，I asked Dad whether Bubbles really knew how to add． I couldn't help but wonder if there was a trick or if it was all simply a coincidence．Dad，with a knowing smile，explained that Bubbles didn't actually possess the ability to solve math problems．In reality，he had trained her to respond to certain cues．When he posed a math question，he would skillfully tap his foot a certain number of times，prompting Bubbles to bark the corresponding number．Despite the initial disappointment，I realized that it was my own effort and perseverance that led to my improvement in math．My grades continued on an upward path．Bubbles couldn't add，subtract，multiply or divide，but she sure could teach．
谢 谢！
