New glve can translate sign language instantly thrugh an app researchers say
Califrnia researchers develped a glve embedded with electrnic sensrs that can translate American Sign Language (ASL) int English in real time thrugh an app n yur smartphne.
Unlike its past cunterparts, the new glve is lightweight, inexpensive and lng-lasting. The device culd help remve cmmunicatin barriers between signers and nn-signers. Hpefully, this may pen up an easy way fr peple wh use sign language t cmmunicate directly with nn-signers withut needing smene else t translate fr them.
The team wrked with fur peple wh are deaf and use ASL and had them repeat gestures up t 15 times while wearing the glve-like device, simultaneusly teaching a machine hw t recgnize them.
The glve has thin, stretchable sensrs made frm “electrically cnducting yarns” that run up each finger and cnvert the mvements int signals. These signals are sent t a “dllar-cin-sized” circuit bard placed n the persn’s wrist, which then wirelessly transfers them ver t a smartphne.
The system was able t recgnize 660 hand mtins and finger placements that stand fr each letter in the English alphabet, different phrases and each number. The algrithm (计算程序) recgnized the crrect signs abut 99% f the time, and in less than ne secnd — r abut a tne wrd per secnd.
The researchers als placed sensrs in between the participants eyebrws and n the sides f their muths t “capture facial expressins that are a part f ASL”. The same exact hand-shape and mvement can ttally change meaning because f the facial expressin that is used t accmpany it. Take the wrd MUCH. The degree f hw much can ttally be determined by the facial expressin alne while the sign stays the same.
Researchers said the glve wuld need t learn mre vcabulary and be able t translate signs faster in rder t get a cmmercial versin f it in stres.
28. Wh is the new glve intended fr?
A. Translatrs.B. Deaf peple.
C. English learners.D. Sign language users.
29. What des Paragraph 4 mainly say abut the new glve?
A. Its reliability.B. Its cmpnents.
C. Its wrking principle.D. Its brad applicatins.
30. Hw d researchers imprve the glve’s crrectness f recgnitin?
A. By cnnecting it t smartphnes.
B. By lengthening the time f catching gestures.
C. By inputting mre letters and wrds in English.
D. By catching infrmatin frm participants’ faces.
31. What will researchers d with the glve in the future?
A. Bring it t market.B. Update its utlk.
C. Extend its service life.D. Imprve its perfrmance.
D
At a summit (峰会) in Paris, tech leaders shared their visins fr the future f AI. Sam Altman f OpenAI wrte that “In a decade perhaps everyne n earth will be capable f accmplishing mre than the mst impactful persn can tday.”
As large language mdels first gained ppularity in the early 2020s, experts were hpeful that AI tls wuld level the playing field, allwing everyne an equal pprtunity in the jb market. Jensen Huang, chief executive f Nvidia, imagined a future where wrkers are all ging t be CEOs f AI agents.
A 2023 study fund that AI tls increased prductivity by 34% fr new custmer-supprt wrkers, helping them slve prblems effectively. A similar trend was bserved in ther knwledge-intensive tasks. Inexperienced writers, fr example, saw the greatest imprvements in the quality f their wrk when using ChatGPT t draft materials.
Hwever, mre recent findings have cast dubt n this visin. They suggest a future in which high-flyers fly still higher and the rest are left behind. Amit Zavery f ServiceNw mentined that ver 85% f custmer-service cases n lnger require human invlvement, a trend likely t grw as AI advances. Althugh AI may at first bst prductivity, its lng-term impact will be t cmmditise (商品化) skills and autmate tasks.
In cmplex tasks such as research and management, new evidence indicates that high perfrmers are best psitined t wrk with AI. Rather than narrwing differences, AI is likely t widen wrkfrce divides. Aidan Tner-Rdgers f MIT fund that tp researchers nearly dubled their prductivity using AI fr materials discvery, while having n measurable impact n the bttm third. Leading scientists, armed with prfessinal knwledge, culd identify prmising suggestins and get rid f useless nes. Less effective researchers, by cntrast, struggled t select useful utputs frm irrelevant nes.
Hwever, persnally, tday’s AI tls are just the beginning. As the technlgy grws mre advanced, it may transfrm wrkplaces, reshaping hw we wrk and cmpete.
32. What did experts expect frm AI tls at first?
A. They wuld replace human jbs quickly.
B. They wuld help the wrkers get prmted.
C. They wuld ensure fair chance fr wrkers.
D. They wuld be widely used in tech industries.
33. Hw des the authr develp paragraph 3?
A. By discussing ptential risks f AI tls.
B. By prviding examples t shw AI’s impact.
C. By explaining the wrking principle f AI tls.
D. By analyzing the lng-term effect f AI n jbs.
34. What d we knw abut the bttm third in Aidan’s study?
A. They benefited the mst frm AI.
B. They stpped using AI after the study.
C. They utperfrmed the tp researchers.
D. They had difficulty using AI effectively.
35. What is the main idea f the passage?
A. AI has bth psitive and negative impacts n wrkfrce prductivity.
B. AI benefits high perfrmers mre than less effective wrkers.
C. AI tls will cmpletely replace human wrkers in the future.
D. AI is the key t slving glbal inequality in the jb market.

New glve can translate sign language instantly thrugh an app, researchers say
Califrnia researchers develped a glve embedded with electrnic sensrs that can translate American Sign Language (ASL) int English in real time thrugh an app n yur smartphne.
Unlike its past cunterparts, the new glve is lightweight, inexpensive and lng-lasting. The device culd help remve cmmunicatin barriers between signers and nn-signers. Hpefully, this may pen up an easy way fr peple wh use sign language t cmmunicate directly with nn-signers withut needing smene else t translate fr them.
The team wrked with fur peple wh are deaf and use ASL and had them repeat gestures up t 15 times while wearing the glve-like device, simultaneusly teaching a machine hw t recgnize them.
The glve has thin, stretchable sensrs made frm “electrically cnducting yarns” that run up each finger and cnvert the mvements int signals. These signals are sent t a “dllar-cin-sized” circuit bard placed n the persn’s wrist, which then wirelessly transfers them ver t a smartphne.
The system was able t recgnize 660 hand mtins and finger placements that stand fr each letter in the English alphabet, different phrases and each number. The algrithm (计算程序) recgnized the crrect signs abut 99% f the time, and in less than ne secnd — r abut a tne wrd per secnd.
The researchers als placed sensrs in between the participants eyebrws and n the sides f their muths t “capture facial expressins that are a part f ASL”. The same exact hand-shape and mvement can ttally change meaning because f the facial expressin that is used t accmpany it. Take the wrd MUCH. The degree f hw much can ttally be determined by the facial expressin alne while the sign stays the same.
Researchers said the glve wuld need t learn mre vcabulary and be able t translate signs faster in rder t get a cmmercial versin f it in stres.
28. Wh is the new glve intended fr?
A. Translatrs.B. Deaf peple.
C. English learners.D. Sign language users.
29. What des Paragraph 4 mainly say abut the new glve?
A. Its reliability.B. Its cmpnents.
C. Its wrking principle.D. Its brad applicatins.
30. Hw d researchers imprve the glve’s crrectness f recgnitin?
A. By cnnecting it t smartphnes.
B. By lengthening the time f catching gestures.
C. By inputting mre letters and wrds in English.
D. By catching infrmatin frm participants’ faces.
31. What will researchers d with the glve in the future?
A. Bring it t market.B. Update its utlk.
C. Extend its service life.D. Imprve its perfrmance.

At a summit (峰会) in Paris, tech leaders shared their visins fr the future f AI. Sam Altman f OpenAI wrte that “In a decade perhaps everyne n earth will be capable f accmplishing mre than the mst impactful persn can tday.”
As large language mdels first gained ppularity in the early 2020s, experts were hpeful that AI tls wuld level the playing field, allwing everyne an equal pprtunity in the jb market. Jensen Huang, chief executive f Nvidia, imagined a future where wrkers are all ging t be CEOs f AI agents.
A 2023 study fund that AI tls increased prductivity by 34% fr new custmer-supprt wrkers, helping them slve prblems effectively. A similar trend was bserved in ther knwledge-intensive tasks. Inexperienced writers, fr example, saw the greatest imprvements in the quality f their wrk when using ChatGPT t draft materials.
Hwever, mre recent findings have cast dubt n this visin. They suggest a future in which high-flyers fly still higher and the rest are left behind. Amit Zavery f ServiceNw mentined that ver 85% f custmer-service cases n lnger require human invlvement, a trend likely t grw as AI advances. Althugh AI may at first bst prductivity, its lng-term impact will be t cmmditise (商品化) skills and autmate tasks.
In cmplex tasks such as research and management, new evidence indicates that high perfrmers are best psitined t wrk with AI. Rather than narrwing differences, AI is likely t widen wrkfrce divides. Aidan Tner-Rdgers f MIT fund that tp researchers nearly dubled their prductivity using AI fr materials discvery, while having n measurable impact n the bttm third. Leading scientists, armed with prfessinal knwledge, culd identify prmising suggestins and get rid f useless nes. Less effective researchers, by cntrast, struggled t select useful utputs frm irrelevant nes.
Hwever, persnally, tday’s AI tls are just the beginning. As the technlgy grws mre advanced, it may transfrm wrkplaces, reshaping hw we wrk and cmpete.
32. What did experts expect frm AI tls at first?
A. They wuld replace human jbs quickly.
B. They wuld help the wrkers get prmted.
C. They wuld ensure fair chance fr wrkers.
D. They wuld be widely used in tech industries.
33. Hw des the authr develp paragraph 3?
A. By discussing ptential risks f AI tls.
B. By prviding examples t shw AI’s impact.
C. By explaining the wrking principle f AI tls.
D. By analyzing the lng-term effect f AI n jbs.
34. What d we knw abut the bttm third in Aidan’s study?
A. They benefited the mst frm AI.
B. They stpped using AI after the study.
C. They utperfrmed the tp researchers.
D. They had difficulty using AI effectively.
35. What is the main idea f the passage?
A. AI has bth psitive and negative impacts n wrkfrce prductivity.
B. AI benefits high perfrmers mre than less effective wrkers.
C. AI tls will cmpletely replace human wrkers in the future.
D. AI is the key t slving glbal inequality in the jb market.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者在桂林阳朔附近的一个古镇——兴坪的旅行经历。
【56题详解】
考查时态语态和主谓一致。句意：它被喀斯特风景的绝佳范例所环绕。分析句子可知，surrund(环绕)是句中谓语动词，与主语It之间是被动关系，陈述客观事实用一般现在时态，又因主语是单数代词，所以谓语动词也应使用第三人称单数形式。综上，谓语应用一般现在时的被动语态，be动词用is。故填is surrunded。
【57题详解】
考查形容词。句意：在一个阳光明媚的周末，我们乘坐子弹头列车从桂林前往阳朔。提示词作定语，修饰名词weekend，用形容词sunny。故填sunny。
【58题详解】
考查介词。句意：到达阳朔后，我们走到火车站左侧的汽车站。表示“火车站的左侧”，用介词f表示所属关系，意为“……的”。故填f。
【59题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意：我们坐了10:30的公交车，大约15分钟后我们到了兴平古镇汽车站。分析句子可知，take(乘坐)是句中谓语动词，与主语We之间是主动关系，讲述过去的事情用一般过去时态。故填tk。
【60题详解】
考查名词。句意：然后，我们找到了古镇老街的入口。提示词作宾语，用名词entrance，意为“入口”。故填entrance。
【61题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：兴平老街是一条一公里长的石头街道，两旁排列着许多不同省份的老砖房和大厅，还有一些民宿。分析句子可知，“(line) with...”作后置定语修饰名词street，line(沿……排成列)是非谓语动词，与其逻辑主语street之间是被动关系，应用过去分词表被动。故填lined。
【62题详解】
考查名词。句意：兴平老街是一条一公里长的石头街道，两旁是许多不同省份的老砖房和大厅，还有一些民宿。可数名词prvince作宾语，有形容词many different修饰，用复数形式prvinces。故填prvinces。
【63题详解】
考查冠词。句意：在一家咖啡店短暂休息后，我们继续前往下一个目的地。可数名词break在句中表示“(一会短暂的)休息”，泛指，shrt发音以辅音音素开头，用不定冠词a修饰。故填a。
【64题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：沿着主干道步行5分钟，我们到达兴平码头，兴平邮轮从这里出发。分析句子可知，空格处单词引导非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词Xingping Wharf (兴平码头)，关系词代替先行词在定语从句中作地点状语，表示“在兴平码头”，应使用关系副词where引导该从句。故填where。
【65题详解】
考查形容词最高级。句意：这是我见过的最美的风景，20元的纸币就是用它做背景的。提示词作定语，结合句意和定冠词the可知，用形容词最高级best修饰名词view。故填best。
