[江苏扬州2021高二期末]Outside an art museum in Topeka, Kansas, some kids are playing happily in what looks like a large Hobbit House while others are walking through the house’s woven archway into a twisted twig (嫩枝) tower.The tower, made entirely of sticks, is a sculpture built by Dougherty.
Dougherty has created more than 200 stick sculptures all over the world.“I design my sculptures to make them look like they've always been there, ” he says.And he likes people to get involved in his work.If they arrive during the three weeks he takes to build a sculpture, he lets them build, too.“I want my work to help people enjoy nature.”
As a child, Dougherty learnt to love nature while travelling through the woods.He would spend hours bending sticks into shelters for his brothers and sisters.When he grew up, he majored in art and learnt to make sculptures with clay.But it was too heavy to make the lines and shapes he had imagined.
One day, he watched thin, young trees waving in the wind.They reminded him of the sticks he built shelters with as a boy.Soon after, he began his first creation made out of sticks.
To begin a sculpture, Dougherty digs holes and buries tall young trees in the ground for support.Then he weaves smaller sticks around them.He uses strings to hold and bend the twigs while he's weaving.When he removes the strings, the sticks stay in place.It usually takes four tons of sticks to build a sculpture, and Dougherty chooses materials that would otherwise be wasted.
Dougherty’s sculptures last two to four years.But even after that, they serve a purpose.The wood is cut up into tiny pieces called mulch (覆盖料), which makes soil rich and helps new plants grow after it is broken down.
1.What does the description of kids playing in Paragraph 1 function as
A.A brief introduction to the museum.
B.A vivid clue to the sculptor.
C.A lively advertisement for the artistic work.
D.A clear display of the architecture.

答案及解析
[全国新高考Ⅱ2021]An Australian professor is developing a robot to monitor the health of grazing cattle, a development that could bring big changes to a profession that's relied largely on a low tech approach for decades but is facing a labor shortage.
Salah Sukkarieh, a professor at the University of Sydney, sees robots as necessary given how cattlemen are aging.He is building a four wheeled robot that will run on solar and electric power.It will use cameras and sensors to monitor the animals.A computer system will analyze the video to determine whether a cow is sick.Radio tags (标签) on the animals will measure temperature changes.The quality of grassland will be tracked by monitoring the shape, color and texture (质地) of grass.That way, cattlemen will know whether they need to move their cattle to another field for nutrition purposes.
Machines have largely taken over planting, watering and harvesting crops such as corn and wheat, but the monitoring of cattle has gone through fewer changes.

For Texas cattleman Pete Bonds, it’s increasingly difficult to find workers interested in watching cattle.But Bonds doesn’t believe a robot is right for the job.Years of experience in the industry—and failed attempts to use technology—have convinced him that the best way to check cattle is with a man on a horse.Bonds, who bought his first cattle almost 50 years ago, still has each of his cowboys inspect 300 or 400 cattle daily and look for signs that an animal is getting sick.
Other cattlemen see more promise in robots.Michael Kelsey, vice president of the Oklahoma Cattlemen’s Association, said a robot could be extremely useful given rising concerns about cattle theft.Cattle tend to be kept in remote places and their value has risen, making them appealing targets.

3.B 推理判断题。根据第四段中的But Bonds doesn’t believe a robot is right for the job.及the best way to check cattle is with a man on a horse可知,看管牛的最好方法是由一个人骑在马上(来看管)。由此推知,皮特·邦兹之所以仍然雇用牛仔来看管牛,是因为他认为牛仔比机器人能更好地胜任这份工作。故选B项。
答案及解析
【易错警示】本题易误选C项。C项意为“他在使用机器人方面缺乏经验”。文中提到failed attempts to use technology,是说他使用技术的尝试失败了,并不是说他缺乏使用机器人的经验,且这并不是他雇用牛仔来看管牛的理由,真正的原因在后面,即the best way to check cattle is with a man on a horse。
