From an airplane,cars crawling down the highway look like ants.But actual ants—unlike cars—somehow manage to avoid the disaster of stop-and-go traffic.Researchers are now studying these insects’ cooperative strategies to learn how to program self-driving cars that don’t jam up.
The free flow of traffic becomes unstable as the density of cars increases on a highway.At 15 vehicles per mile per lane,one driver tapping their brakes can trigger a persistent wave of traffic jam.“It’s a kind of phase transition,like water turning from a liquid to a solid form,”says Katsuhiro Nishinari,a mathematical physicist at the University of Tokyo,who studies these jamming transitions.
Human drivers prioritize individual goals,creating traffic waves during rush hours.“Self-driving cars could adopt ant-like cooperation,” says Nicola Pugno of Italy’s University of Trento.Future autonomous vehicles might share data to improve speed consistency and safe distances,imitating ants that coordinate via scent trails.Researchers found that the ants don’t jam because they travel in groups of 3 to 20 that move at nearly constant rates while keeping good distances between one another—and they don’t speed up to pass others.Such decentralized systems,notes UCLA biologist Noa Pinter-Wollman,are flexible without centralized control—similar to ant groups.
Yet ants outperform vehicles in flexibility.They widen trails as needed,navigate 3D spaces(even walking on tunnel ceilings),and avoid collisions by crawling over each other—choices unavailable to cars.For current drivers,Nishinari offers a simple lesson:avoid tailgating,leaving space ahead absorbs braking waves that cause “phantom” jams.“Just keeping away,” he emphasizes,enhances flow.
While self-driving networks face infrastructure limits,ant-inspired methods—prioritizing steady speeds,communication,and patience—could revolutionize traffic management.By blending biology and engineering,researchers aim to transform stop-and-go chaos into the efficient flow nature perfected over millennia.

D.By sharing data to maintain steady speeds and spacing.
3.What does the underlined word “tailgating” in paragraph 4 mean
A.Overtaking. B.Accelerating.
C.Parking. D.Following.
4.What is the main idea of the passage

Killer whales hunt fish with sounds as clicks and buzzes—they choose and chase their prey with sound waves.But a common feature of modern ocean life may be like a salmon’s invisible cloak(隐形斗篷),making the whales’ favorite meal harder to find.What is to blame Boat traffic noise.
Ocean noise has been increasing over the years,and an international research team recently reported in Global Change Biology that when the water got too noisy,whales spent more time looking for food but caught fewer fish.The study tracked every move and sound that individual killer whales made,as well as the sound reaching those whales.This is the first time scientists have linked noise reaching a given killer whale to their foraging(觅食) success,says lead author Jennifer Tennessen.
The noise problem is one that Tennessen views as chronic,yet possibly more straightforward to fix than declining fish populations or pollution—ships could simply slow down to make less noise.Fortunately,with the guidance of both governmental and non-governmental groups,some ship operators are slowing down.
The Vancouver Fraser Port Authority in Canada reported in 2023 that 87 percent of ships slowed or moved over for southern resident whales in critical habitat,which led to a decrease of 4.2 decibels(分贝) compared to 2019,before slowdowns began.Washington ports and other local authorities join in a program of voluntary slowdowns in Washington waters called Quiet Sound,which offers information on killer whale locations.About 70 percent of ships follow Quiet Sound’s guidelines and voluntarily slow down in killer whale critical habitat.
The talk about innovations in propeller(螺旋桨) technology is also positive.A propeller,for example,is based on a design for a quieter drone propeller.If claims of a more efficient and quieter boat propeller are true,that’s good news for both reducing fuel use and quieting traffic.
Tennessen says increasing ship noise is a problem in oceans around the world.“We’re finally able to measure the impacts that it’s having on wildlife,” she says,“and we’re finding that the impacts are numerous.”
5.Why does the author mention a salmon’s invisible cloak
A.To introduce the feature of sound waves.
B.To describe the environment in whales’ hunting.
C.To emphasize the invisibility of salmons’ cloak.
D.To demonstrate the characteristic of whales’ hunting.
6.What do the statistics indicate in paragraph 4
A.Noise reduction is ineffective.
B.Ship operators ignore guidelines.
C.Quiet Sound prioritizes noise monitoring.
D.Voluntary slowdowns lead to noise reduction.
7.What is the significance of propeller technology innovations
A.To address noise issues.
B.To reduce fuel efficiency.
C.To follow Quiet Sound’s guidelines.
D.To help measure influences on wildlife.
8.Which of the following is the best title for the text
A.Ships Slow Down for Whales
B.Boat Noise Clouds Whale Foraging
C.Killer Whales Battle Noise Pollution
D.Technology Innovations Silence Propellers

参考答案
UNIT 10 CONNECTIONS(二)
Ⅰ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章说明了蚂蚁在交通拥堵方面给人类的启示。
1.C 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“At 15 vehicles per mile per lane,one driver tapping their brakes can trigger a persistent wave of traffic jam.‘It’s a kind of phase transition,like water turning from a liquid to a solid form,’says Katsuhiro Nishinari,a mathematical physicist at the University of Tokyo,who studies these jamming transitions.”可知,每英里每车道15辆车时轻踩刹车,导致了交通中的“相变”。
2.D 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Future autonomous vehicles might share data to improve speed consistency and safe distances,imitating ants that coordinate via scent trails.Researchers found that the ants don’t jam because they travel in groups of 3 to 20 that move at nearly constant rates while keeping good distances between one another—and they don’t speed up to pass others.Such decentralized systems,notes UCLA biologist Noa Pinter-Wollman,are flexible without centralized control—similar to ant groups.”可知,自动驾驶汽车通过共享数据来保持稳定的速度和间距,从而模仿蚂蚁来减少交通拥堵。故选D项。
3.D 词句猜测题。根据画线词下文“leaving space ahead absorbs braking waves that cause ‘phantom’ jams.‘Just keeping away,’ he emphasizes,enhances flow”可知,应该避免紧跟在车后,所以画线词意思为“紧跟着”。
4.A 主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“Researchers are now studying these insects’ cooperative strategies to learn how to program self-driving cars that don’t jam up.”及全文可知,文章说明了蚂蚁在交通拥堵方面给人类的启示。由此可知,A项“蚂蚁有助于解决交通问题”符合题意。
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍越来越多的海洋噪声污染问题给鲸的捕猎带来了困扰,为此,各方从多个角度投入力量改变这一现状。
5.B 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“But a common feature of modern ocean life may be like a salmon’s invisible cloak,making the whales’ favorite meal harder to find.What is to blame Boat traffic noise.”可知,这里使用鲑鱼的隐形斗篷作为一个比喻,描述了船只交通噪声如何使得鲸更难找到它们的食物,就像给鲑鱼穿上了一件隐形斗篷一样,由此可知,文中提到鲑鱼的隐形斗篷是为了表明鲸鱼捕食困难的境况。
6.D 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“The Vancouver Fraser Port Authority in Canada reported in 2023 that 87 percent of ships slowed or moved over for southern resident whales in critical habitat,which led to a decrease of 4.2 decibels compared to 2019,before slowdowns began.”可知,大多数船只遵循指导原则并自愿在鲸的关键栖息地减速,从而实现了噪声水平的有效降低,由此可知,第四段中的数据表明了自愿减速导致噪声减少。
7.A 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“A propeller,for example,is based on a design for a quieter drone propeller.If claims of a more efficient and quieter boat propeller are true,that’s good news for both reducing fuel use and quieting traffic.”可知,螺旋桨技术的创新旨在制造更加安静和高效的船用螺旋桨,有助于解决噪声问题,由此可知,螺旋桨技术创新的意义是解决噪声问题。
8.B 主旨大意题。根据首段中的“But a common feature of modern ocean life may be like a salmon’s invisible cloak,making the whales’ favorite meal harder to find.What is to blame Boat traffic noise.”可知,噪声污染成为像鲑鱼的隐形斗篷一样,使得鲸难以捕捉到它们的主要食物来源,引出下文介绍的通过船只减速和其他技术手段来减轻这种影响的努力,由此可知,本文主要讲述的是船只噪声污染问题给鲸的捕猎带来的困扰以及解决这一问题的方法和技术进步,所以题目“船只噪声影响鲸鱼觅食” 准确反映了文章的核心内容,适合作为最佳标题。
Ⅱ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者与父亲一同前往艾尔云雀国家雨林的拉米纳瀑布的旅行经历,特别是作者对冷水的复杂感受以及与父亲在水中的不同表现。展现了作者从犹豫到最终跳入水中的心理变化,以及这一经历所带来的成就感和遗憾交织的复杂情感。
