One cmmn use fr AI is in facial recgnitin technlgy. Many f us can unlck ur mbile phnes with an image f ur face and it’s imprtant part f security prcesses in, fr instance, airprts.
But this is the first time this kind f technlgy has been used fr animals. It then had t learn t recgnize facial features.

Think abut hw different the nses f a brder cllie(边境牧羊犬) and bulldg are, fr instance. Once the AI behind Happy Pets had learned all this, it then had t be able t detect emtins based n specific facial features that are assciated with each emtin, which it has learned frm thusands f examples. Fr instance, if a dg tightens its eyes and muth while changing the psitin f its ears in a particular way, it’s a sign f being scared.
In an nline article fr Melburne University’s Pursuit, the researchers write they’re happy with hw the app perfrms. The researchers wuld lve feedback abut hw they culd develp the app further.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一款可以识别宠物情绪的软件并讲述了其工作原理。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“It’s called Happy Pets and it analyses an animal’s facial features, tells yu what breed(血统) it is and indicates which f the five mst cmmn animal emtins—happy, angry, neutral, sad and scared.(它叫作快乐宠物,它分析动物的面部特征,告诉你动物是什么品种,而且它显示五种最常见的动物情绪中的哪一种——快乐、愤怒、中性、悲伤和恐惧。)”可知,快乐宠物的功能包括:分析宠物面部特征、告诉是什么品种并指出动物的情绪,A、B、D三项均是这款应用程序的功能,C项“教授宠物的面部识别”在文中没有提到。故选C。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“One cmmn use fr AI is in facial recgnitin technlgy. Many f us can unlck ur mbile phnes with an image f ur face and it’s imprtant part f security prcesses in, fr instance, airprts.(人工智能的一个常见用途是面部识别技术。我们中的许多人可以通过面部图像解锁手机,而且这是机场等安全流程的重要组成部分。)”可知,面部识别技术常用于解锁手机和机场等场所的安全流程。由此可推测出,面部识别技术主要通常用于安保系统。故选B。
【10题详解】
词义猜测题。This指代上文中的“learn t recgnize facial features”(学习识别面部特征)。根据画线词后的“because phts can be taken in s many different ways: frm the side, abve, belw, in bright light”可知,照片的拍摄有很多种不同的方式。由此可推测出,识别面部特征很复杂。sphisticated意为“复杂的”,和B项意思最接近。故选B。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“It then had t learn t recgnize facial features.(然后它必须学会识别面部特征。)”和“Once the AI behind Happy Pets had learned all this, it then had t be able t detect emtins based n specific facial features that are assciated with each emtin, which it has learned frm thusands f examples.(一旦快乐宠物背后的人工智能学会了这一切,它就必须能够根据与每种情绪相关的特定面部特征来检测情绪,这是它从数千个例子中学到的。)”可知,快乐宠物必须要学会识别面部特征,因为这使它能够基于特定的面部特征来检测宠物的情绪。故选C。

【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“This is helping t change the trend that sees many schls selling up r building n their playgrunds and cutting back n playtime t make mre rm fr academic studies , while at hme children’s lives are increasingly filled with rganized activities intended t help them learn. (这有助于改变这样-种趋势,即许多学校出售或修建操场,减少玩耍时间,为学业腾出更多空间,而在家里,孩子们的生活越来越多地被旨在帮助他们学习的有组织的活动所占据。)”可知,学校会减少孩子们的玩耍时间,为学业腾出更多空间,家长认为学习比玩耍重要,会给孩子安排更多的旨在帮助他们学习的活动,由此可知,孩子们在户外的时间更少了,是因为成年人忽视了游戏时间的重要性。故选B项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“93% f teachers surveyed saw imprvements in children's creativity after playing utside, and 97% believe that time utdrs is necessary fr children t reach their full ptential.(93%的受访教师认为孩子们在户外玩耍后创造力有所提高,97%的教师认为户外活动对孩子们充分发挥潜能是必要的。)”可知,多数教师认为在户外玩耍可以提高孩子的创造力,有助于充分发挥他们的潜能,由此可推断出,学校老师对这项活动的态度是积极的。故选A项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。通读文章,结合第二段“Outdr Classrm Day, taking place n 17th May and 1st Nvember this year, will see schls arund the wrld swap the inside fr the utside and take learning int the playgrund and beynd t make playtime a key part f the schl day. This might invlve using natural bjects like stnes t d sums, r ging n an insect hunt t encurage curisity.
