Students at the No. 11 Middle School in Hangzhou, China, may have to think twice before getting distracted(分心)in class as a new facial recognition system will be scanning their faces every 30 seconds to make sure they are paying attention.
Called a “smart classroom behavior management system”, the new monitoring solution has recently been installed at Hangzhou’s No. 11 Middle School. It has an Al-powered software that analyzes the students’ facial expressions and general behavior and assesses whether they are enjoying lessons or if their minds are wandering.
The Al is able to pick up seven different emotions, including neutral, happy, sad, disappointed, angry, scared and surprised, and will send a notice to the teacher to take action if it detects that one or more students are distracted during class. The data gathered by the surveillance system could also be used to evaluate(评价) teachers' performance. So far, it has only been installed at this school in Hangzhou, but if results turn out great, it could be rolled out across China.
“Maybe some kids think that it will be watching them the whole time and make them nervous, but they are maybe making too much out of it, because they will feel pressured, but that's not the point of it,” one teacher at No. 11 Middle School said. "It's about getting the children to learn properly the whole time they are in class.”
One thing this teacher is definitely right about is the kids being freaked out by the high-tech cameras recording their every move and facial expression. Some are already changing their behavior because of this.

【主旨大意】本文是一篇科技说明文。主要从将在杭州第十一中学展开的新的监控方案的实施原理、过程和影响等方面进行了详细的介绍。
1. B 词义猜测题。 A. receive 收到 , B. discover发现,查明 , C. collect 收集 , D. guess 猜测,根据下文的seven different emotions, including …, and will send a notice to the teacher to…,可以推知此处指的是人工智能能够识别7种感情,并把结果反馈给老师,故选B。
2. D细节理解题。文章第四段的“...make them nervous...”,“...they will feel pressured...”和第五段的“the kids being frightened...”提到了学生对于新系统的三种感情。“Proud”这种感情文中没有提到。故选D。
3. 细节理解题 根据第3段The data gathered by the surveillance system …. 可知此系统也用来评估老师的表现,故A错;根据第3段最后一句So far, it has only been installed …, but if …, it could be rolled out across China. 可知此系统目前还没有推广到其他的城市,故B错;根据最后一段最后一句Some are already changing …. 可知一些学生已经注意到自己分神并改变了自己的行为,故D错;根据"It's about getting the children to learn properly….”可知此系统目的不是监控学生而是让学生学得更好,故C对。
4. A主旨大意题。文章最后一段主要讲了两件事:一是因为新系统的高科技相机记录了学生们的每个举动和面部表情,他们被吓到了;二是一些学生因为新系统已经正在改变他们的行为。可见,本段主要讲述了新系统如何影响了学生们。故选A。
