An artificial intelligence (AI) tool of street view could be used to predict the risk of coronary heart disease ——a condition where the heart's arteries (动脉) are blocked, limiting blood f low to the heart by analysing neighbourhood environments, according to research.
A study, published in the European Heart Journal, monitored everyday surroundings, including the quality' of roads, buildings, and green spaces, and the role they play in determining heart health. Researchers were able to track the link between these environmental elements, including the presence or absence of pollution, and the risk of coronary heart disease. They found that these neighbourhood characteristics could account for 63% of the differences in heart disease risk from one community to another.
The discovery stems from analysing more than half a million AI street view images across US cities, using computer vision to identify and interpret details that might go unnoticed by the human eye. The data provides urban planners and public health officials with information to design healthier living spaces and neighbourhoods.
“Undoubtedly, there is a vast amount of social, economic and environmental data set, ” said one of the study's authors, Prof Sanjay Rajagopalan. “However, there still remain significant gap s in our knowledge regarding unique environmental aspects of data that are currently beyond human comprehension. This is where the use of computer vision approaches may enable unique understanding of the physical and built environment. ”
By employing AI, researchers have been able to examine the details of neighbourhoods' environment. The study employed computer vision technology, including applications used in medical imaging and autonomous driving, to identify details and then interpret them to make predictions or decisions.
“We are getting to a place in human civilization where traditional approaches that have been used are rather limited and the use of AI to enhance human understanding is going to be critically important at solving complex problems, ” Prof Rajagopalan said.
8. What is the finding of the study
A. How people can prevent heart diseases. B. How environments affect heart health.
C. How AI can reduce heart disease risks. D. How the heart's arteries are blocked.
9. What can the finding of the study help to do
A. Promote computer technology. B. Reduce air and water pollution.
C. Design green neighbourhoods. D. Advertise for an AI company.
10. Why was computer vision used in the study
A. The researchers had no environmental data. B. It had solved some environmental problems.
C. People ignored the environment they live in. D. It helped people understand the environment.
11. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. The development of AI for hospitals B. The medical use of a street view tool
C. The insight into healthy neighbourhoods D. The link between the heart and environment
D
Forests have been embraced as a natural climate solution, due to their ability to soak up carbon dioxide from the atmosphere as they grow, locking it up in their trunks, branches, leaves, and roots. But a new study confirms widespread doubts about the potential for most forests in the Western US to help control climate change.
Published in Earth's Future, the paper analyzed trends in carbon storage across the American West from 2005 to 2019. Led by Jazlynn Hall, a forest and landscape ecologist at Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies, the team found that throughout most of the region, climate change and fires may be causing forests to store less carbon, not more.
“There's a growing trend to use forests as natural climate solutions, ” said Hall. “Many climate mitigation (减轻) pathways rely in part on additional forest carbon storage to keep warming below. 1. 5℃ this century. We wanted to provide a baseline for how much: carbon is currently stored in Western forests, how it's changing, and how disturbances like fire and drought pose a threat to climate mitigation targets. ”
The authors warn that many Western forests could see a rapid acceleration of carbon loss in the coming years or decades. “These challenges have the potential to compromise carbon storage capacity and weaken our ability to mitigate climate change, Hah cautions.
By providing a fire- new view of threats at: landscape and regional levels, Hall and colleagues provide a framework (框架) that could help forest managers adapt site- specific strategies to strengthen forest resilience (复: 原力) . They also identify the remaining areas with the lowest risk and highest potential to store carbon, such as the Pacific Northwest.
“Our study develops new methods to carefully estimate forest- carbon storage at a regional level, track it over time, and find out the causes of changes over time, ” said Hall. He expects the methods will be useful in monitoring carbon storage levels going forward, as well as assessing the carbon impacts of management efforts such as forest thinning and planned burning.
12. What does the underlined phrase “soak up” in paragraph 1 mean
A. put down. B. take in. C: bring up. D; give out.
13. Why was the study conducted
A. To find the best forests for carbon storage. B. To promote forests' carbon storage capacity.
C. To assess the current situation of forests. D. To measure the carbon released into forests.
14. What can we say about the future trend of Western forests
A. Carbon loss will speed up. B. They will become more resilient.
C. They will store more carbon. D. They will have no impact on climate.
15. What is the primary function of Hall's framework for forest management
A. Predicting future forest growth rates. B. Identifying high- risk areas for protection.
C. Mapping all the forests in the Western US. D. Helping managers adapt strategies to forests.

It was early spring in Fairbanks, and puppies were blossoming like flowers among melting snow in Susie's dog yard. “How can I ever turn you into a winning team ” Susie said, laughing. She'd dreamed of winning the yearly Dog Sled Championships Race.
“Which pups will you choose ” Susie's mother asked. “I think I'll just choose three of four Aurora's pups, ” Susie said, but she knew that only three of these little puppies would make it to the big race. Although Aurora's pups were only four weeks old, Susie already saw differences among them. Pluto was naughty, while Sunshine was shy, and Foxy was a tease. Fudge was the most responsive to her. Actually. Fudge was the smallest one.
“Will you be my lead dog someday when your mother Aurora is old ” Susie said, holding Fudge's tiny face to hers. “He's awfully small, ” Susie's mother said. His brothers and sisters were already twice his size. “He'll grow fast, ” Susie said. “I'll train him right along with the others. ”
Training puppies was a family affair. Susie's mother and father raised thirteen strong dogs. Susie planned to make her best team this time. Susie trained each of them for their roles. Aurora was surely the leader of her four- dog team. As for Fudge, Susie would also give Fudge a small branch when she often let team dogs pull branches as a kind of training. He kept pulling it even when the other pups knocked him over. He kept working at tasks that Susie gave him, no matter how tired he got. Susie loved him for trying so hard.
When spring snow melted into summer, Susie ran her pups through flowered fields and wooded hills to keep them in shape. She felt delighted when Aurora proved to be a good leader and the team did well. Unexpectedly, Fudge got the summer growth that she hadn't counted on. Though not officially belonging to the team, every practice, Fudge did his best beyond Susie had imagined.

36. 考查非谓语动词。句意:最近在吉岔遗址发现了几项新发现,揭示了古代冶金学的秘密。空处需要非谓语动词作状语,reveal与逻辑主语finds之间为主动关系,所以用现在分词作状语。故填 revealing.
37. 考查定冠词。句意:位于云南省迪庆藏族自治州的遗址与古代冶金术有关。此处特指该遗址,应用定冠词 the。故填 the。
