This allows them to quickly confirm an individuals identity. Systems are becoming so advanced that a wanted criminal can instantly be picked out

9、 of a crowd of thousands of people. All thats required is an image in a database to compare with the image of any number of people in a crowd. Ordinary people, too, are using facial recognition to unlock their phones, their computers and other devices. Personal facial recognition protection has seve

10、ral benefits. It is instantaneous, and it relieves us of the need to memorize passwords. However, a device will require a password in the rare event that it doesnt, for whatever reason, recognize the users face. There are numerous concerns about the use of facial recognition. Primarily, the concern

11、is that it threatens privacy. The installation of more and more cameras in public and private places is now part of everyday life. This means people can be observed and recognized wherever they go. Cameras may make public spaces safer, but keeping law-abiding（ 守法的 ） citizens under constant watch is

12、disturbing to many. In the age of the corona-virus and the widespread wearing of masks, facial recognition systems are having some difficulty.

17、ge? The. Its everywhere. We use it in English without always noticing or appreciating it. Its not much to look at. It isnt descriptive, emotive or inspiring. Technically, its meaningless. And yet this dull and harmless-seeming word could be one of the most powerful words in the English language. The

18、 tops the lists of most frequently used words in English, accounting for 5% of every 100 words used. But why is this? The answer is two-fold. The principle of least effort plays a major part. So people use it a lot. At the same time, at the heathrteof Enligelsish grammar, having a function rather th

19、an a meaning. Words are split into two categories: expressions with a semantic （ 語義的 ） meaning and functional words like the , to , for , with a job to do. Although the has no meaning in itself, it seems to be able to do things in subtle and miraculous ways, says Michael Rosen, poet and author. Cons

20、ider the difference between a goal and he scored the goal . The inclusion of the immediately signals something about that goal. Perhaps it was the only one of the match? Or maybe it helped a team win the championship? Context very often determines sense. This simplest of words can be used for dramat

21、ic effect. At the start of Hamlet, a guard utterance of Long live the King is soon followed by the ghost: Looks it not like the the audience may wonder, does the refer to? The living King or a dead King? This kind of confusion is the kind of trick that writers use to make us surprised and amusyede,v

It is dull and descriptive. D It is in every English sentence. 9. The word the is frequently used because it is _ . A. br

23、ief and functional C. effective and emotive 10. What does the example in Paragraph 3 imply? A. A is not as important as the . B. Its impossible to understand a single sentence. C. Words should be understood in the context. D. Some words have a clearer meaning than others. 11. Why did the writer of t

24、he play stress A. To show his confusion. B. To add drama to the scene. C. To repeat the guards words. D. To help the audience understand. D Our suits have four layers: thermal underwear on the inside, followed by an electrically heated bodysuit, a thick wool coat, and a half-inch-thick layer of rubb

25、er outerwear. Therere two layers of hoods, waterproof gloves and 35 pounds of weights. There are two batteries for the heated bodysuit, a backup gas container, and finally, my photography equipment. We look like astronauts minus the helmets. When we finally dive into the freezing water, were wearing

26、 200 pounds each. The cold quickly numbs the few square inches of exposed skin on our cheeks, and as the dive goes on, it spreads into our suits and gloves, biting even harder. It s almost unbearable. Towrearpdauthseinegnodn, as we our way up to let the pressure drop, we search for anything to distr

27、act us from the pain. When we finally drag ourselves out of the freezing ocean, I lie face down on the ice, my brain dulled, my skin hard and wrinkled, my lips, hands, and feet swollen and unconscious then, as my body warms and the blood starts to flow (again), the intense pain is at its worst. What

28、 could possibly make this worthwhile? The sight! Only a few species of seals, penguins, and other birds live in East Antarctica, and no land mammals at all. Below, it s a rich garden. Antarctic marine life has been largely isolated from the rest of the planet for millions of years, ever since the co

29、ntinent separated from the other continents and froze over. Since then the powerful Antarctic Circumpolar Current has surrounded Antarctica from west to east, creating a sharp change in temperature that prevents the spread of marine animals. The long isolation has allowed a surprising diversity of s

30、pecies, unique to the region, to evolve on the seafloor. The waters under Antarctic ice are like Mount Qomolangma: magical, but extremely unfriendly. Nothing short of full commitment gets you anywhere. The demand is too great. But thats what makes 4B. popular and unique D. meaningful and expressive

31、the in Looks it not like the King ? 5 the images you see here so breathtaking, and the experience of having photographed them and of having seen this place so unforgettable. 12.

34、ken. B. The divers devotion to the tough task. C. The long-standing reputation of Antarctica. D. The challenging circumstances of the diving. 第二節 （共5小題；每小題 2.5分，滿分12.5分） 閱讀下面短文，從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。 選項中有兩項為多 余選項。 Choose Action Over Perfection Imperfect progress realized is better than perfection im
