山东省菏泽市2022-2023学年高二下学期4月期中英语试题（A卷） 学校:_____姓名：_____班级：_____考号：_____ 一、阅读理解 You’ve probably tried easy center-city Beijing rides if you enjoy riding. Now it’s time to level up your rides, so they will take you out into the countryside and attractive mountains. Death Valley Approximate distance:100 km loop(环线) It may sound terrifying, but Beijing’s cyclists named this northern route “Death Valley” on account of the huge tomb it passes, not the number of on-road accidents it has witnessed.

The turbines (涡轮机), however, can be a threat to birds, which is why experts are looking for ways to prevent the danger. A company in Boulder, Colorado has produced a camera-and-AI-based technology that can recognize eagles and other birds as they approach in enough time to shut off turbines in their flight paths. Their tool, called IdentiFlight, can detect 5.62 times more bird flights than human observers alone, with an accuracy rate of 94 percent. Using high-precision (高精确度的) visual sensors, the ... ...
