Giant pandas, China’s national treasure, face challenges such as forests loss and low birth rate. To protect them better, zoos now use AI technology in creative ways. At Chengdu Panda Base, scientists put up special cameras. These cameras record pandas all day — whether they are eating bamboo, climbing trees, or sleeping. The AI system studies videos to learn about pandas’ health and daily habits.
In the past, keepers used notebooks to record pandas’ habits. This was slow and often inaccurate. Now, AI tools work very fast with few mistakes. For example, if a panda eats less bamboo than usual, the system will send messages to keepers. AI also helps to increase the number of baby pandas. By studying pandas’ sounds and actions, it knows the best time for pandas to become parents.
Besides, AI cameras protect pandas from visitors who break the rules. If someone throws food or gets too close to them, AI sounds an alarm right away. This helps to keep both pandas and people safe.
However, technologies like special cameras and drones(无人机) bring challenges too. Sometimes they make loud noises or fly close to pandas’ homes, making them scared. And bright lights from special cameras may affect pandas’ sleep patterns.
Now scientists are trying to solve these problems and using AI equipment(设备) in a better way. They believe AI will play an important part in saving endangered animals in the future.
27. What is the main use of the special cameras at Chengdu Panda Base
A. To feed bamboo to pandas.
B. To record and study pandas’ activities.
C. To protect pandas from dangers.
28. What does the underlined word “inaccurate” mean in the second paragraph
A. 不精准的 B. 不正确的 C. 不正常的
29. What can you infer from the passage
A. AI helps pandas to be parents at the right time.
B. AI can stop visitors from breaking rules.
C. AI problems can’t be solved.
30. What is the main purpose of this passage
A. To list the problems of using AI in the zoos.
B. To show how AI works in panda protection.
C. To ask people to protect pandas.
