27、Folk-rocker Richie Havens, who died on April 22 at the age of 72, will be remembered for many things, among which his performance at Woodstock in 1969 made him into music history.
He wasn’t supposed to open the festival—he was scheduled to play fifth that day. Plans changed when the opening band, Sweetwater, got caught in traffic, Michael Lang, producer of the festival, said he chose Havens “because of his calm but powerful manner”. His performance went overtime because the next act was stuck in traffic, too. This led Richie Havens to create on the spot what became one of the most significant moments of the Woodstock Festival: his performance of “Freedom”.
The oldest of nine children, Havens was raised in the poor Bedford-Stuyvesant section of Brooklyn, New York. As a child, he dreamed of growing up to be a surgeon, but set off on a musical path as a teenager. Forming a music group in high school, he then landed in New York’s Greenwich Village folk clubs at 17. He soon stood out from the other young singers.
He recorded two albums on small labels (公司) before signing with Bob Dylan’s manager, Albert Grossman. He then joined a larger label and went on to tour for more than 40 years, making close to 30 albums.
Besides a good songwriter, Richie Havens was also an outstanding song interpreter. In many occasions he’d tell of spending three days learning Bob Dylan’s “A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall”: “I wasn’t born to sing so I practiced the song over and over again in a stairwell.” One night, a man stopped him and said it was the best version he’d ever heard. Havens always ended the story by saying: “that’s how I first met Bob Dylan.”
【1】What can we know about the Woodstock Festival in 1969?
A. Michael Lang was to blame for the traffic.
B. The first four bands all got stuck in the traffic.
C. Richie Havens was the only one invited to play.
D. It offered a chance to Richie Havens to success.
【2】What plays an important role in Havens’ success?
A. Good luck. B. Timely help. C. Hard work. D. Great talent.
【3】The underlined “a man” in the last paragraph actually refers to ________.
A. Bob Dylan B. Alert Grossman C. Michael Lang D. Richie Havens
【4】It can be inferred from the passage that ________.
A. Richie released 30 albums in total in his life
B. Richie grew up in a wonderful environment
C. Richie played Freedom without preparation
D. Richie dreamed to be a singer since childhood
28、Whenever Alyssa Bohart heard a voice from her computer repeatedly- status alert, status alert—the search was on. The warning came from a radar device installed in Churchill, Manitoba—a modified (改进的) military system programmed with artificial intelligence (AI) and trained to detect polar bears.
Over the past four years, the nonprofit Polar Bears International (PBI) has led radar, or “bear-dar”, tests to hopefully help northern communities stay safe. Polar bears are powerful predators, and for people in the Arctic, an essential part of coexisting with bears is maintaining a respectful distance. But with climate changes reducing sea ice, polar bears conflicts are spending more time on land. The chances of polar bears and humans conflicts are increasing, which can have terrible consequences for both parties.
The project came into being when PBI was looking for new ways to prevent human-polar bear conflicts. A chance meeting with SpotterRF, a company that makes military radar devices, gave them an idea: maybe they could use the radar system to detect polar bears heading toward towns and send out an early warning.
In their initial tests, the researchers discovered that “the technology works great”, says Geoff York, FBI’s senior director of conservation. “If anything, it detects too much.” The radar turned out to send thousands of motion alerts. So in 2020, the team turned to AI to try to narrow down the hits. “By incorporating this AI, we are truly teaching this radar to learn what a polar bear is,” says Alysa McCall, a staff scientist with PBI.
This past fall, the team positively identified 28 polar bears and had 89 alerts that didn’t turn out to be bears. McCall says their goals is to have more positive identifications than negative. In rare events, the team noticed polar bears, either on the camera or in person, that the bear-dar didn’t identify. In those cases, the two most confusing variables for the bear-dar were variations in the bears’ sizes, and the direction the bears were walking in relation to the radar. “We are not quite there yet. But I think the results have proved we have a good direction of where to go with the AI,” says MeCall.
【1】What is PBI trying to do?
A.To provide new homes for polar bears.
B.To help humans stay away from polar bears.
C.To protect polar bears with advanced technology.
D.To look into the cause of human-polar bear conflicts.
【2】What was the problem with PBI’s initial radar system?
A.It was often damaged by polar bears.
B.It cost too much money to operate well.
C.It sent out unnecessary warning signals.
D.It needed much time to find the target.
【3】How did McCall feel about the test results?
A.Hopeless.
B.disappointed.
C.Concerned.
D.satisfied.
【4】What can be the best title of the text?
A.AI does a great job in polar bear conservation
B.Climate change intensifies human-bear conflicts
C.Bear-dar warns humans of approaching polar bears
D.Polar bears pose a big threat to northern communities
29、Ladybug celebrated its twenty-fifth anniversary this month. For twenty-five years, the magazine has been trying to reflect the world of young children — and make it a little broader — through stories, poetry, art, and various activities.
Each issue of this magazine encourages kids to take a closer look at the people and places around them. Ladybug invites children to bring their whole selves — their acute (敏锐的) ear for language and keen eye for illustrations (插图), as well as their wonderful sense of play and great power of imagination — when they sit down and start to put their heart into reading.
The significance of Ladybug’s long history is clearest to me, a man who is in charge of the edition of this magazine, when I talk to parents of children who have grown up. They often respond with surprise: “ Ladybug? With the poems, and the stories, and the crafts to cut out, what will you do next? We used to read that magazine when the kids were little. ” And then there is a moment of silence, as if the father is searching for a particular poem, or the mother is remembering the feel of a restless child’s head when it finally settled against her shoulder. It is a great pleasure to contribute to a magazine that families have put in their memory.
Some anniversaries are formal, but at Ladybug, we approached the September issue as if it had been a birthday party. It is full of lively company, jokes, music, stories and poems that celebrate special days and growing up.
In this spirit, we offer one of our favorite birthday stories, “ Big Bear and Skinny Rabbit ” , from an issue that came out a few years ago. It is part of a series about two friends who couldn’t be more different in temperament (气质), yet more perfect for one another.
【1】What does Ladybug concentrate on?
A.various stories, poetry and activities
B.some beautiful people and places
C.the great power of imagination
D.the development of little kids
【2】What does the author probably do according to the passage?

D.An artist.
【3】We can infer from the third paragraph that ______ ?

B.Some parents can remember Ladybug with affection.
C.some parents are concerned about the development of Ladybug.
D.It is expected that more contents should be contained in Ladybug.
【4】______ will probably be talked about in the following paragraph?
A.An introduction of Ladybug’s birthday.
B.The new issue of Ladybug.
C.A collection of poems.
D.A story published before.
