Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
Wild Track is an organization that aims to protect endangered animals like rhinos. They
use a computer program that runs photos of animal track through an algorithm (演算法).Then the program makes the same observations as a tracker would, allowing scientists to know where individual animals go. However, the program itself needs “training”.
It starts with collecting good photos of prints from endangered animals in captivity (圈
养）.As people send in photos of tracks from animals in the wild, the FIT program can compare it to tracks from animals it “knows”. As the program becomes more accurate, Wild Track hopes it will become a major tool for monitoring any endangered species.
Anyone can help Wild Track by taking images of tracks and sending them to a partner
organization called naturalist.org. The only tool you need is a digital camera or cellphone. After finding a clear track, place one ruler along the bottom of the footprint and another along the left side. Below the footprint, place a note containing your exact name and the date. Holding the camera or cellphone directly above the track, take a photo showing the footprint, rulers and note. Later, visit naturalist.org and follow the instructions on the site to send your photo.
Wild Track needs photos of footprints made not only by animals in captivity but also
those living in the wild. In wild places, you should take care not to disturb animals in their natural environment. If you intend to photograph in a wild area that is unknown to you, then you should not go there alone. Instead, go with someone who is familiar with the region and experienced at tracking.
56. How does the writer begin this article about Wild Track? A. By discussing the software that it employs. B. By praising its recent efforts to raise funds. C. By explaining how and when it was founded. D. By summarizing different opinions about it.
57. According to this article, which animals are Wild Track mainly interested in? A. Those which cause a threat to human settlements. B. Those which are now at risk of becoming extinct. C. Those which have been illegally kept as pets. D. Those which disappeared from the Earth long ago. 58. What does this article talk about in detail? A. A list of locations worth exploring. B. A strategy for acquiring equipment. C. A warning not to engage in hunting. D. A technique containing several steps.
