When we think of pioneering organizations in technology, Apple and OpenAI often dominate the conversation. However, Transport for London (TfL), managing the London Underground, also does remarkable work.

In an innovative move, TfL transformed Willesden Green, a station in North West London, into a “smart” station by integrating AI image recognition technology with existing CCTV systems. The upgraded cameras could then intelligently analyze video to monitor activities within the station, similar to human observation but with greater efficiency.

This cutting-edge technology, relatively new yet rapidly developing, enhances the operational capabilities of the Tube’s staff. For instance, the AI system was programmed to detect individuals who may need immediate assistance, such as those who have fallen. Once detected, a warning would be sent to station staff via iPads, enabling them to quickly provide the necessary help.

The system also addressed safety concerns by identifying passengers standing dangerously close to the platform edge and flagging them up to staff, leading to intervention to prevent potential accidents. Moreover, the AI was capable of recognizing prohibited items like knives and guns, and behaviors such as ticket avoidance by jumping over ticket barriers.

One of the more advanced features of this AI system was its ability to identify “aggressive (攻击性的) behavior”, a challenging task given the subjective nature of visual signals. TfL tackled this by setting a warning for when an individual raises both arms — a movement often linked with aggression or trouble. This feature not only aids in spotting potential threats but also serves as a quiet emergency signal for staff who might feel threatened and are unable to call for help conventionally.

Despite its benefits, the use of AI in public monitoring is not without its debates, especially concerning privacy and the potential for misuse. However, with appropriate rules, the potential of AI to enhance productivity, security, and efficiency in public transport systems like the London Underground is vast.

4. What makes Transport for London a pioneer in technology?
5. Discontinuation of CCTV systems. B. Effectiveness of human observation.
6. Cooperation with OpenAI company. D. Use of AI for smart camera systems.
7. What do the underlined words “flagging them up” in paragraph 4 mean?
8. Assisting them. B. Avoiding them.
9. Highlighting them. D. Offering them flags.
10. How does this technology empower station staff?
11. By punishing passengers’ misbehavior. B. By ensuring a secure working environment.
12. By minimizing real-time monitoring needs. D. By detecting potentially collapsing platforms.
13. Which of the following best describes this technology?
14. Ineffective. B. Transformative C. Short-lived. D. Nonessential.

【答案】4. D    5. C    6. B    7. B

【解析】

【导语】本文是新闻报道。报道了伦敦交通局（TfL）在Willesden Green地铁站引入了AI图像识别技术，通过智能摄像系统提升了地铁站的安全性和运营效率。

【4题详解】

细节理解题。根据第二段“In an innovative move, TfL transformed Willesden Green, a station in North West London, into a “smart” station by integrating AI image recognition technology with existing CCTV systems. The upgraded cameras could then intelligently analyze video to monitor activities within the station, similar to human observation but with greater efficiency.(在一项创新举措中，伦敦交通局通过将人工智能图像识别技术与现有的闭路电视系统相结合，将伦敦西北部的威尔斯登格林车站改造成一个“智能”车站。升级后的摄像头可以智能地分析视频，监控空间站内的活动，类似于人类观察，但效率更高)”可知，伦敦交通局（TfL）通过将人工智能图像识别技术与现有的CCTV系统相结合，使Willesden Green站成为“智能”站。这种创新的AI技术让伦敦交通局在技术上处于领先地位。故选D项。

【5题详解】

词句猜测题。根据前文“The system also addressed safety concerns by identifying passengers standing dangerously close to the platform edge(该系统还通过识别站在站台边缘的危险乘客)”以及后文“leading to intervention to prevent potential accidents(从而进行干预，防止潜在的事故)”可知，此处应是AI系统识别出站台边缘危险的乘客并向工作人员发出警告，从而提醒工作人员进行干预，以防止潜在的事故，推知flagging them up应是“识别标记他们”之意，和C项意思相近。故选C项。

【6题详解】

细节理解题。根据第五段“One of the more advanced features of this AI system was its ability to identify “aggressive (攻击性的) behavior”, a challenging task given the subjective nature of visual signals. TfL tackled this by setting a warning for when an individual raises both arms—a movement often linked with aggression or trouble. This feature not only aids in spotting potential threats but also serves as a quiet emergency signal for staff who might feel threatened and are unable to call for help conventionally.(这个人工智能系统的一个更高级的功能是它能够识别“攻击行为”，考虑到视觉信号的主观性，这是一项具有挑战性的任务。伦敦交通局解决这个问题的方法是，当一个人举起双臂时，就会发出警告——这一动作通常与攻击性或麻烦有关。这个功能不仅有助于发现潜在的威胁，而且还可以作为一个安静的紧急信号，为那些可能感到受到威胁而无法常规呼叫帮助的员工提供帮助)”可知，这项AI技术帮助识别潜在威胁、监测乘客安全以及识别危险行为，从而使车站工作人员能够更迅速有效地采取行动，保障他们的工作环境更加安全。故选B项。

【7题详解】

推理判断题。根据第二段“In an innovative move, TfL transformed Willesden Green, a station in North West London, into a “smart” station by integrating AI image recognition technology with existing CCTV systems. The upgraded cameras could then intelligently analyze video to monitor activities within the station, similar to human observation but with greater efficiency.(在一项创新举措中，伦敦交通局通过将人工智能图像识别技术与现有的闭路电视系统相结合，将伦敦西北部的威尔斯登格林车站改造成一个“智能”车站。升级后的摄像头可以智能地分析视频，监控空间站内的活动，类似于人类观察，但效率更高)”并通读全文可知，文章描述了这项AI技术如何在多个方面显著提升了伦敦地铁的安全性和效率，表明这项技术对公共交通系统产生了变革性的影响。故选B项。

A recent study from the University of Guelph in Canada has revealed a surprising discovery about common eastern bumblebees (大黄蜂): These insects can survive underwater for up to a week. This finding, published in the journal Biology Letters, came about due to an experimental error when researchers placed hibernating (冬眠的) queen bumblebees in water and found them alive days later. The discovery has impressed scientists. particularly because bumblebees are land-based creatures not typically associated with water environments.

Nigel Raine, a professor in the school of environmental sciences at the university and the study’s lead author, expressed his astonishment at the results. To further explore this phenomenon, Raine and his team conducted an experiment involving 143 hibernating queen bumblebees. They discovered that those placed underwater for up to seven days had similar survival rates to those not, indicating that the bees’ ability to survive such conditions may be more common than previously thought.

The research underlines the strength of bumblebees during their hibernation period. a critical phase in their life cycle that has remained largely unexplored. Queen bumblebees typically hibernate alone in small holes during the cold months, which are believed to protect them from flooding. However, this study reveals that these bees possess an unexpected adaptation, allowing them to survive even in flooded conditions.

Given these findings, one possible explanation for their survival is diapause, a state of suspended growth and reproduction characterized by reduced oxygen intake. During this state. bumblebees may close their spiracles (气孔) to prevent water from entering their bodies, and they might also breathe through their skin. This energy-saving mode is likely a key factor in their ability to survive beneath the water.

Raine emphasized the importance of understanding these mechanisms, as it could have significant implications for the study of wild insects that help with plant reproduction, which are crucial for food security and ecosystem health, His team’s research will aim to determine whether hibernating queens can survive even longer periods underwater and if similar strength exists in other bee species.

8. What do we know about the finding?
9. It matched prior beliefs. B. It concerned sea insects.

C It was fully anticipated. D. It was made by accident.

9. What can be inferred about bumblebees from paragraph 3?
10. They hibernate in groups for protection. B. They are always protected from flooding.
11. They have a hidden adaptation mechanism. D. They reproduce better in flooded conditions.
12. What may Nigel Raine do in the future?
13. Secure research patents. B. Prioritize dietary security.
14. Conduct further research. D. Raise ecological awareness.
15. Which is the most suitable title for the text?
16. Bumblebee Reproductive Habits B. Bumblebee Hibernation Patterns
17. Scientists’ Experimental Methods D. Bumblebee Survival Underwater
