In nearly every city on every continent, there are sites to be seen that remind us that our generation was not the first. They show us that those who came before had rich
20、 cultures, and they inspire us to engage in (参与) their stories. But these essential sites are under threat from natural disasters, warring peoples and even tourists.Fortunately, concerned citizens are trying their best to preserve ancient sites. Respected organizations like UNESCO are stepping in to
21、 guard world heritage locations, and a large number of charities have sprung into action to give new energy to damaged or destroyed structures. But with modern technology comes the opportunity to go one step further: to capture (拍摄) sites digitally. This is the goal of the US-based company CyArk, wh
22、ose founders were moved to act after hearing of the senseless destruction of ancient ruins.Using a combination of Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) technology and photogrammetry (摄影测绘), CyArk captures details of ancient sites in their entirety, creating a photorealistic 3D model.

23、 important technique used for capturing 3D blueprints of a structure. It relies on pulses of light being shot at and bounced back from the structure s surface to capture both depth and details. LiDAR units can be handheld, or mounted on an aircraft to document inaccessible and large spaces with grea

To guide an aircraft around ancient sites.C. To help take 3D pictures of ancient sites.D. To explore the inside of anci
28、ent sites.11. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Rewinding time: ancient sites with new looksB. Natural disasters: enemies to ancient sitesC.

29、d younger people are more sensitive to social cues (暗示).Recently scientists investigated this idea by testing 10,000 men and women.

30、b-based platform to collect happiness data. It showed the participants two headshots (头部特写) of random people. They were then asked to identify which subject was angrier, happier, or more fearful. The research found that younger people were able to better identify angry and fearful facial cues than o
