Yet,Hawn's primary focus is to assuage the fears of her patients.She takes enormous joy in helping mothers avoid panic attacks after long days,saving teenage girls from embarrassment at school,and bringing peace of mind to those who have been dealing with lice.For Hawn,seeing the positive impact she has on people's lives makes a big difference. 蝶 Working at the lice clinic has not only helped her develop career skills,but it has also confirmed her desire to work in healthcare.Through her experience,Hawn has realized that $ her true passion lies in helping others regain their confidence and peace of mind. Hawn has been working at the clinic for nearly five years.Despite the misconceptions people have about lice,she remains committed to her work.She even addresses the common myth that lice can fly or jump,explaining that lice only spread through direct head-to-head contact.Hawn takes precautions to ensure she doesn't carry anything home after treatments. While balancing her work at the clinic with school is demanding,Hawn manages by taking weekend shifts.She is fortunate to have employers who accommodate her school schedule.

Technologies like large language models (LLMs)can perform many cognitive ( tasks traditionally fulfilled by humans,but they make plenty of mistakes.Unlike human mistakes,AI errors lack patterns and usually show invisibility even when they are incorrect. This situation indicates two possible areas of research.The first is to engineer LLMs that make more human-like mistakes.The second is to build new mistake-correcting systems that deal with the specific sorts of mistakes that LLMs tend to make. We already have some tools to lead LLMs to act in more human-like ways and the tools perform far better than we expected.Many of these arise from the field of "alignment" research,which aims to make models act in accordance with the goals and motivations of their human developers.One example is the technique that was arguably responsible for the breakthrough success of an app:reinforcement learning with human feedback.In this method,an AI model is rewarded for producing responses that get a thumbs-up from human evaluators. When it comes to catching AI mistakes,some of the systems that we use to prevent human mistakes will help.To an extent,forcing LLMs to double-check their own work can help prevent errors.But LLMs can also make up seemingly reasonable,but truly ridiculous explanations for their flights from reason. In addition,other mistake reduction systems for AI are also unlike anything we use for humans.Because machines can't get tired or frustrated in the way that humans do,it can help to ask an LLM the same question repeatedly in slightly different ways and then combine its multiple responses.These differences highlight.the need for new,custom-made correction mechanisms()that match the unique nature of AI-ensuring these technologies can be safely and reliably integrated into human societies. 28.How are AI mistakes different from human mistakes? A.They are not easy to detect. B.They follow predictable patterns. C.They are not related to cognitive tasks. D.They tend to be in larger numbers. 29.What does the author want to stress about the tools for leading the behavior of LLMs? A.They have certain positive effects. B.Their application hasn't been popular. C.They need further training for human evaluators'rewards. D.Their goals have not met the original intentions of human developers. 【高二英语第5页（共10页）】 CS扫描全能王 3亿人■在用的扫描Ap明 30.What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs? A.AI mistakes are easier to fix than human errors. B.Humans require tailored solutions for AI errors. C.AI is able to copy any systems we use for humans. D.Systems for correcting human mistakes can prevent LLMs mistakes fully. 31.What is the the best title for the text? A.Why Is AI Always Right? B.Making AI Mistakes Manageable C.Adapting to AI Error Patterns D.When Do Human Errors Increase? D When Barry Libert and Jon Spector set out to write about how social networking might help businesses,they allowed just about anyone with an idea to help write the book. Thousands of people contributed to We Are Smarter Than Me,which is about the wisdom of the crowd. Spector says the book was initially modeled after a popular online encyclopedia written and edited by Internet users. "We've actually struggled throughout the process on the differences between the online encyclopedia and writing a book:How do you combine the ideas,and how do you get a single common voice across?"Spector says. Spector and Libert tried to set guidelines for how people should write,but that proved too restrictive. "Finally we said...you have to have no guidelines,"Spector says."And we talked to ourselves about giving up control.Were we ready to do it?And eventually we said to ourselves,'Look,if we believe in this concept,we have to carry it out.'And we did.And that's really when the contributions from the community began to pick up. The authors felt that social networking wasn't just about the famous social media platform."It was really about how businesses might think about crowds,"Libert says."Not just their employees as crowds,but also customers,partners,distributors,and investors as crowds-and to use those crowds as a way to improve whatever activity they're working on..” In one success story that proved the power of the crowd,a gold mining company had essentially run out of places to look for gold.It decided to publish its geological data on the Web and allowed outsiders to contribute suggestions for new locations to mine. "They found $3 billion of new gold out there,"Spector says."There's just that knowledge out there and that's the essential premise (of the book:We,some of whom are unknown,are smarter than a small group of experts inside a company." 32.What made the writing of We Are Smarter Than Me unique? A.It copied the encyclopedia's editing rules. B.It collected ideas from the public. C.It followed strict writing guidelines. D.It focused on the impact of social media. 【高二英语第6页（共10页）】 CS扫描全能王 3亿人■在用的扫描Ap明 33.Why did the authors finally remove writing guidelines? A.To appeal to more professional writers. B.To make the book more interesting. C.To truly practice their belief in the public. D.To protect employees'enthusiasm. 46tt072 34.What does the gold mining company's example prove? A.Crowds can outperform experts.B.Online data may risk business security. C.Business should involve outsiders.D.Geological data is vital for gold mining. 35.What does the text intend to do? A.Share a writing skill. B.Clarify a concept. C.Recommend a working procedure. D.Highlight a trend. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。 Psychologists have conducted thousands of studies of the features people find desirable in friends.But all the studies don't spell out clearly the practical advice about the specific approaches people can use to move from social isolation through initial acquaintance (to close friendship.36.Here are four of them. Spend time together.People began to move from acquaintance to casual friend after spending around 30 hours together.It took at least 140 hours together to become a close friend .37.It was found that small talk about sports,for example,was less helpful for making friends than joking or showing concern. 38.When you are paying attention to what your conversation partner is saying, they feel understood and accepted.How do you make it obvious you are paying attention? Making appropriate eye contact is one signal,which increases the chances that they'll feel similar to you,and enjoy the conversation. .Open up.39.Be someone that others feel at ease to confide (in.When you embrace this openness in your relationships,you'll attract people who value authenticity and who will be equally open with you in return.

The only hint (of his past was a locked drawer in the old desk in his study.As a child,I tried to open the lock once.But all I got was a warning:"Some things stay put for a 【高二英语第9页（共10页）】 CS扫描全能王 亿人在用的扫描Ap reason."After that,I stopped asking questions. Years later,as I grew up,my father's health was not as good as before.I noticed him walking slower and spending long hours sitting silently in the study.One day,the hospital called.It was lung cancer.I moved home from the company dormitory.We settled into an awkward routine-I took care of him and he pretended not to be in pain. One day,while dusting the study,I found an old key beneath a drawer.My hands froze. Curiously,I unlocked the drawer.Inside was a single item:a handbound sketchbook )its cover marked with faded initials-L.B.which is like the pen name of the artist in my impression. I opened it immediately.Page after page showed cartoon-style drawings-two boys in school uniforms,one with messy hair,the other with glasses,laughing and racing.On the last page,a note was written:“For Leo-Ben”. I wondered who Ben was?And why had my father locked this away? I immediately brought him the sketchbook.At first,he said nothing,just staring at the cover.Then he whispered,“You found it.” "Who's Ben?"I asked gently."Ben was my best friend.We made comics together and 牌 dreamed of publishing our own series.But just before high school ended,his family left without warning.No goodbye.No address. 第 "Why didn't you try to find him?"Dad shook his head."I did.I wrote letters and even called his uncle once-but it led nowhere.After a while,I convinced myself it was better not to know."He looked down at the sketchbook."But I never stopped thinking about him. 注意： 洲 1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 烟 That night,I opened my laptop and started searching for Ben.
