(我最喜歡中國水墨畫的是它給你的自由)”可知，Vermander之所以對中國水墨畫感興趣，是因為其本質(zhì)。故選B?！?題詳析】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段“Throughtheinkbrush,hehopestoshowhisinnerexplorations,andthemovementofhisheart.(他希望通過筆墨來表現(xiàn)自己內(nèi)心的探索和內(nèi)心的運動)”可知，關(guān)于Vermander的水墨畫，A選項“它們與他的內(nèi)心感受有關(guān)”正確。故選A。【7題詳析】主旨大意題。根據(jù)第一段“BenoitVermander,aFrenchprofessoratFudanUniversity’sSchoolofPhilosophy,hasfoundafreemodeofself-expressioninChineseinkpaintings.UndertheartnameofBendu,Vermander—whoisalsoknownbyhisChinesenameWeiMingde—isexhibitingmorethan60Chineseinkpaintings,mostofwhichhehascreatedoverthepastdecade.(復(fù)旦大學(xué)哲學(xué)學(xué)院的法籍教授BenoitVermander在中國水墨畫中發(fā)現(xiàn)了一種自由的自我表達(dá)方式。Vermander的藝名是Bendu，他的中文名是魏明德，他將展出60多幅中國水墨畫，其中大部分是他在過去十年創(chuàng)作的)”結(jié)合本文講述了法國教授BenoitVermander對中國水墨畫的熱愛、學(xué)習(xí)及其作品特點?？芍?，這篇文章的主要內(nèi)容是一個外國人在中國水墨畫中發(fā)現(xiàn)了自己。故選C。CGoogle’srecentlyintroducedWillowquantumchip(量子芯片)isasignificantbreakthroughinthefieldofquantumcomputing.Ithas105physicalquantumbitsandcancompleteacomplexbenchmark(基準(zhǔn))calculationinlessthanfiveminutes,whilethefastestcommoncomputerwouldtake1025yearsforthesametask.Thischiprepresentsamajortechnologicalbreakthroughasitsolvesthelong-standingproblemofquantumerrorcorrection.TheworkingmechanismofWillowiscenteredarounditsadvancederrorcorrectionprocesses.Itusesquantumcorrectioncodes,wheremultiplephysicalquantumbitsarenetworkedtocreateasinglelogicalquantumbit,allowingfortheidentificationoferrorswithoutdisturbingtheoriginalquantumstate.Thechipalsoincorporatesasystemofactivesupervisionthatcontinuouslymonitorsqubit(quamtumbit)behavior,detectsabnormalitiesinreal-time,andtakemeasuresimmediatelytocorrecterrors.Thiscombinationofreal-timeerrorcorrectionandconstantmonitoring,alongwithanoptimizedarchitectureforhandlingqubits,enablesWillowtoreduceerrorsexponentially(呈指數(shù)增長)asthenumberofqubitsincreases.Thisisamajorachievement,solvingaproblemthathasplaguedthefieldfornearly30yearsandpavingthewayformorepowerfulandpracticalquantumcomputingsystemsinthefuture.ThepotentialapplicationsofWillowarevast,includingquickeningdrugdiscovery,improvingelectricvehiclebatterydesign,andadvancingfusionenergyandnewenergyalternatives.Inconclusion,Google’sWillowquantumchipholdsgreatpromiseforthefutureofcomputingandvariousindustries.However,itshouldbenotedthatWillowisstillinthelaboratorystageandrequiresfurthertestingandimprovementbeforepracticalapplication.Itcurrentlyhas105qubits,stilltoosmalltohandletrulyusefulandcomplexreal-worldtasks.Expertssuggestthatmillionsofqubitsmaybeneededtosolveimportantindustryproblems.Moreover,thechipneedstooperateinextremelylow-temperatureandhighlycontrolledlaboratoryenvironments,whichlimitsitsimmediatepracticaluse.Therefore,whileWillowshowsgreatpromiseforthefutureofquantumcomputing,itisnotyetreadyforpracticalapplicationsatpresent.8.Whatshouldbeleftundisturbedwhensolvingtheproblemofquantumerrorcorrection?A.Quantumcorrectioncodes.
