【題目】 One Australian state government has become the first in the world to carry out a statewide camera program to automatically detect (探測) drivers using their cell phones while driving.

The program came into effect in the state of New South Wales on December 1 following a six-month trial earlier this year, which the government claims caught over 100,000 drivers. Similar technology has been tested in England and Saudi Arabia, but the NSW program marks the first time it has been widely carried out.

There won’t be any signs signalling the cameras’ presence, either. “We have to unfortunately use the element of surprise to get people to think ‘well, I could get caught at any time,’” said NSW Roads Minister Andrew Constance. “I want behaviour to change and I want it changed immediately.”

The cell phone detection camera can’t actually discover people using their phones in time. Instead, it takes photographs of every single vehicle that passes by it, using artificial intelligence (AI) to analyse them later. If the software detects a likely offender (違法者), the image is then checked by an employee before a punishment notice is sent out.

Drivers will only receive warnings for the first three months the cell phone detection cameras are in operation. After that, drivers who are caught will be fined 344 dollars, as well as losing five points from their driver’s license.

According to the NSW government, if the AI doesn’t detect any phone use in a photo it will be deleted without any human seeing it, usually within an hour.

【1】Why does the NSW government carry out the camera program?

A.To detect the number of drivers using cell phones.

B.To help drivers avoid being caught in surprise.

C.To change drivers’ behavior of using cell phones while driving.

D.To test similar technology like some European countries.

【2】What does the underlined word “them” in paragraph 4 refer to?

A.Cameras.B.Drivers.C.Photos.D.Passers-by.

【3】What may happen to the offenders detected by the camera?

A.Some regular written warnings.B.No punishment in the limited time.

C.A heavy fine without point loss.D.A make-up test of the driver’s license.

【4】What is the text mainly about?

A.A road Al camera system in Australia.

B.A test of world-first AI camera system.

C.The behaviors of Australian drivers.

D.The development of AI camera system.

【答案】

【1】C

【2】C

【3】B

【4】A

【解析】

本文是一篇新聞報道。一個澳大利亞的州政府成為世界上第一個實施全州范圍內(nèi)自動檢測開車時使用手機(jī)的司機(jī)的州政府。該程序于12月1日在新南威爾士州生效。

【1】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段One Australian state government has become the first in the world to carry out a statewide camera program to automatically detect (探測) drivers using their cell phones while driving.(一個澳大利亞州政府已經(jīng)成為世界上第一個在全州范圍內(nèi)實施自動檢測司機(jī)開車時使用手機(jī)的州政府。)和第三段的 “I want behaviour to change and I want it changed immediately.”(我希望行為改變，我希望行為立即改變。)可知，實施這個監(jiān)控計劃是為了改變司機(jī)開車使用手機(jī)的行為。故選C。

【2】

詞義猜測題。根據(jù)劃線詞上文The cell phone detection camera can’t actually discover people using their phones in time. Instead, it takes photographs of every single vehicle that passes by it(手機(jī)檢測攝像頭實際上無法及時發(fā)現(xiàn)人們使用手機(jī)。相反，它拍攝每一輛經(jīng)過它的車輛的照片)可知，劃線所在部分using artificial intelligence (AI) to analyse them later表示：稍后使用人工智能來分析它們，故them指代上文提的“photographs”，故選C。

【3】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段的Drivers will only receive warnings for the first three months the cell phone detection cameras are in operation. After that, drivers who are caught will be fined 344 dollars, as well as losing five points from their driver’s license.(手機(jī)檢測相機(jī)運行前三個月司機(jī)只會收到三個月的警告，在那之后，被抓住的司機(jī)將被罰款344美元，以及駕照扣5分。)可知，限定時間內(nèi)不處罰。故選B。

【4】

主旨大意題。根據(jù)第一段One Australian state government has become the first in the world to carry out a statewide camera program to automatically detect (探測) drivers using their cell phones while driving.(一個澳大利亞州政府已經(jīng)成為世界上第一個在全州范圍內(nèi)實施自動檢測司機(jī)開車時使用手機(jī)的州政府。）并結(jié)合下文的介紹可知，文章主要講述了一項澳大利亞的道路Al攝像機(jī)系統(tǒng)。故選A。

Though it is one of the faded memories of my life today, there are times when I remember his face clearly, especially his eyes. As he had yellow spots on his eyes we called him Spotty. He would have been a stray(流浪) dog, until he came to me.

I was seven years old. My dad had just got a new job in Nasik. We had moved into a rented house. It was raining very heavily on the day we moved.

It was a cold dark night. We had our meal and went to sleep. Somehow in the midnight I heard some strange sounds outside the main door. I gathered courage and looked out through the window and I was really amused with what I saw outside.

There was a small puppy lying on an old doormat which my mother had put outside the door. It was wet and trembling. At first it was difficult to see the little one. It was the yellow spots on its eyes that made me realize its presence.

It was trying to get under the doormat to avoid the cold air outside and it had managed to get in as I could see only its head outside the doormat. Was it sick or injured?

I felt pity for the poor soul. I went in and came out with an old towel. I went near the innocent one and held it in my hand and wiped the puppy till he had become dry. I took him into my room and made a bed for him with a woolen blanket and a small pillow. He seemed very healthy and comfortable in his new bed as he went to sleep immediately.

The next morning, everyone in the family came to know about the unusual guest. “Shall we keep him with us?” I questioned my mom.

Like any other parents would, my parents first totally refused my idea but my sister and I convinced them to keep Spotty.

Slowly Spotty got on with everyone and became one of the family members.

Paragraph 1:

Days passed on and one evening when Spotty returned from his long walk, he appeared very exhausted.

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Paragraph 2:

Almost a year later, one midnight we heard Spotty barking breathlessly.

As is known to us, we can meet with various challenges in our life. Facing with challenges, how should we do? Last week, our class climbed Mount Tai, which was more than 1,500 meters above sea level. Lacking exercises, I thought that this activity was great challenge for me. I felt very exhausted half way that I wanted to give up. See this, my classmates and even some strangers encouraged me. In the end, I managed to reach on the top of the mountain. Therefore, don’t give up in the face of challenges. If you are determined enough, it is certainly that you can overcome it.
