The Qatar 2022 World Cup on Nov.20，2022 is the first winter edition in the history of World Cup and the first World Cup played in the Arab world.Qatar was the country of barely three million people，one of the world's biggest producers of natural gas，having spent tens of billions of dollars on building stadiums and infrastructure.It has built eight stadiums for the World Cup as well as a new airport，series of roads and about 100 new hotels.New stadiums cost more than ﹩6.5 bn and a driverless metro rail system with a price tag of ﹩36 bn serves five of the eight venues.
From motion tracking balls to AI assisted offside detector，Qatar's first Wold Cup is filled with new tech.Earlier this year Adidas revealed 'Al Rihla'，the official match ball of the 2022 World Cup.Al Rihla translates as 'the journey' in Arabic and it is designed to support the highest game speeds as it travels faster in flight than any FIFA World Cup ball created before it in the tournament's 92-year history.The new ball features the latest Adidas Suspension System at its core，containing a motion sensor that tracks every touch of the game at a rate of 500 times per second.The motion sensor inside the ball will enable the collection of incredibly accurate ball movement data，which will then be transmitted to Video Match Officials within seconds throughout the tournament.
In addition，this year FIFAhas announced a new semi-automated offside technology（SAOT）which is used at the FIFA World Cup 2022 in Qatar.The new technology uses 12 dedicated tracking cameras mounted underneath the roof of the stadiums to track the ball，as well as up to 29 data points on each individual player，which are tracked 50 times per second，calculating their exact position on the pitch（場(chǎng)地）.The 29 collected data points include all limbs and extremities（手足）that are relevant for making offside calls.This data is used in conjunction with artificial intelligence，to provide an automated offside alert to the video match officials inside the video operation room whenever the ball is received by an attacker who was in an offside position.

1．Nuclear bombs.That's the go-to answer for incoming space objects like asteroids（小行星） and comets，as far as Hollywood is concerned.Movies like Deep Impact and Armageddon rely on nuclear weapons，delivered by stars like Bruce Willis，to save the world and deliver the drama.
But planetary defense experts say in reality，if astronomers spotted a dangerous incoming space rock，the safest and best answer might be something more subtle，like simply pushing it off course by crashing it with a small spacecraft.
That's just what NASA did on Monday evening，when a spacecraft headed straight into an asteroid called Dimorphous，which is around 7 million miles away and poses no threat to Earth.It's about 525 feel across and orbits another larger asteroid.
In images streamed as the impact neared，the egg-shaped asteroid grew in size from a little spot on screen to have its full rocky surface come quickly into focus before the signal went dead as the craft hit right on target.
Events happened exactly as engineers had planned，they said，with nothing going wrong. "As far as we can tell，our first planetary defense test was a success，" said Elena Adams，the mission systems engineer，who added that scientists looked on with "both terror and joy" as the spacecraft neared its final destination.
The impact was the peak of NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test （DART） ，a 7-year and more than ﹩300 million effort which launched a space vehicle in November of 2021 to perform humanity's first ever test of planetary defense technology.It will be about two months，scientists said，before they will be able to determine if the impact was enough to drive the asteroid slightly off course，probably shortening its original orbit.
NASA plans to launch an asteroid-hunting space telescope named NEO Surveyor in 2026. "We've tacked lots of space rocks，especially the larger ones that could cause extinction-level events.Thankfully，none currently threaten Earth.But many asteroids the size of Dimorphous haven't yet been discovered，and those could potentially take out a city if they came crashing down." explains Lindley Johnson，NASA's Planetary Defense Officer.
（1）How did scientists know the craft hit the asteroid successfully？
A．The signal from the craft was lost as it hit the target.
B．They recorded the whole process with a telescope.
C．The little spot on the screen suddenly disappeared.
D．They monitored the craft with satellites in space.
（2）What is the purpose of launching the spacecraft？
A．To search for evidence of alien life.
B．To end the asteroid's threat to Earth.
C．To save the world and deliver a drama.
D．To test technology for defending Earth.
（3）What can be inferred about Dimorphous？
A．It is a dangerous incoming space rock.
B．It is an egg-shaped asteroid around Earth.
C．It may orbit the same asteroid after the hit.
D．It is expected to blow up after the impact.
（4）Which statement will Lindley Johnson probably agree with？
A．Asteroids are equally destructive whatever the size.
B．NEO Surveyor is aimed to track smaller asteroids.
C．Larger asteroids will no longer threaten Earth.
D．NASA is responsible for the safety of Earth.發(fā)布：2024/12/11 2:0:1組卷：6引用：4難度：0.5 -
