主题语境:人与社会
One day I typed into ChatGPT all about my
upset feelings and it instantly responded,offering
a list of practical advice.Nowadays millions of
people are already turning to ChatGPT and spe-
cialist therapy (chatbots for convenient and
inexpensive mental health support.
Some experts say this is a boon.After all,
Al,undisturbed by embarrassment and burnout,
might be able to express empathy(同理心)more
openly and tirelessly than humans.But others
worry about the consequences of people seeking
emotional support from machines that can only
pretend to care.Some even wonder if the rise of
so-called empathetic AI might change the way we
interact with one another.Indeed,empathy is
one of our species'defining qualities,developing
as it did in pace with social interaction.
One recent analysis about empathy looked at
52 studies published between 1980 and 2019,
which shows that the empathiser must first be
able to recognize how the other person is feeling.
They must also be affected by those emotions and
differentiate between themselves and the other
person,grasping that the other person's feelings
aren't their own while still being able to imagine
their experience.
On the first point,in recent years,Al-pow-
ered chatbots have made progress in their ability
to read human emotions,most powered by large
language models (LLMs)that work by predicting
which words are most likely to appear together
based on training data.In this way,LLMs like
ChatGPT can seemingly identify our feelings and
respond appropriately most of the time.But
when it comes to the other criteria,AI still mis-
ses the mark in many ways.Empathy is interper-
sonal,with continued feedback helping to perfect
the empathiser's response,which also requires
some degree of intuitive(直觉的)awareness of
an individual and their situation.
All of this helps to explain conversations like
the ones I had with ChatGPT.At the end of the

day,despite talking to multiple chatbots online,

[语篇解读]这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了
AI聊天机器人在提供心理支持方面的利弊,以及
与人类真正同理心的差距。
l.C[词义猜测题。根据第二段的“After all,
Al,undisturbed by embarrassment and burn-
out,might be able to express empathy(同理
心)more openly and tirelessly than humans..”
可知,这里提到人工智能因为不受尴尬和疲惫
的影响,可能在表达同理心上比人类更开放、不
知疲倦,因此对于某些专家来说,这是人工智能
在心理健康支持方面的优势,是一种好事。所
以boon在这里意为“好事,益处”。]
2.B[细节理解题。根据第三段的“One recent
analysis about empathy looked at 52 studies
published between 1980 and 2019,which
shows that the empathiser must first be able to
recognize how the other person is feeling.”可
知,关于同理心的最近分析表明,同理心的首要
条件是能够识别另一个人的感受。]

3.A[细节理解题。根据第四段的“On the first
point,in recent years,AI-powered chatbots

工智能如ChatGPT能够识别我们的情感并做
出适当的反应,这是基于大量语言模型对数据

Most of us likely consider snakes to be cold to
others of their kind,just as they are cold to us human
beings.
But those beliefs are wrongespecially when it
comes to garter snakes(袜带蛇),a new study says.
These nonpoisonous creatures,which range from
the chilly plains of Canada to the forests of Costa
Rica,have special preferences about which
snakes they hang out with-in other words,they
have“friends.”
"All animals-even snake-need to interact
with others,says study leader Morgan Skinner,
a doctoral candidate in behavioral ecology at Wil-
frid Laurier University in Canada.To investigate
this theory,Skinner carried out a novel experi-
ment to assess the personalities and sociability of
eastern garter snakes.The results showed that
"like us,they seek out social contacts,and
they're particular about whom they socialize
with,”says Skinner.
The idea that snakes have close friends may
be surprising,but such relationships are increas-
ingly being found throughout the animal king-
dom,from bats to elephants.A recent analysis of
bats showed,for example,that bats and humans
both have conditional friendships.
Scientists are likely better at discovering
friendships among animals now than,say,30
years ago,partly because many societies are more
accepting of such a concept,and because re-
searchers have far better tools for gathering and
analyzing the data.

an individual and their situation.”以及最后一
段的“At the end of the day,despite talking to
multiple chatbots online,I did what I knew I
had to do all along:I picked up my phone and
called a friend.”可知,作者在与多个聊天机器
人交谈后,最终还是选择给朋友打电话寻求情
感支持。这表明,虽然ChatGPT能提供一定的
帮助,但在作者看来,它的人工善意仍然不能与
真实的人类情感交流相比。由此可推知,作者
认为它的人工善意无法与人类的相比。]
说明文
话题:蛇的超强社交智慧与能力
However,the scientists have no idea what's
motivating friendships in garter snakes,though
they do know it's not related to reproduction or
mating(交配):The study snakes did not prefer
the opposite sex as friends.But such partner-
ships must be offering some benefit-otherwise
the animals would not waste the energy forming
such bonds.For example,snake friends usually
curl up together,which helps them keep heat and
defend against natural enemies.
Whatever the reason,says Gordon Burghardt,an
evolutionary biologist at the University of Ten-
nessee,the study "should help convince people
that snakes aren't all mysterious loners,but have
more social intelligence and a larger social ability
than most of us realize.
5.What can we know from the new study?
A.Snakes make friends for their next genera-
tion.
B.Snakes are kinder to each other than to man-
kind.
C.Snakes have special preferences for their
partners.
D.Snakes also need social contacts and close
friends.
6.Why can friendships among animals be re-
searched better than before?
A.Because of the unique experiment by Skinner.
B.Because of more social support and better
equipment.
C.More researchers are gathering and analy-
zing the data.
D.More people are changing their attitude to-
ward animals.

5.D[推理判断题。根据第三段“‘All animals-
even snake-need to interact with others,'says
study leader Morgan Skinner(研究负责人摩根·
斯金纳说,‘所有的动物一甚至蛇—都需要
与其他人互动')”和“The results showed that

Ⅱ.阅读七选五主题语境:人与社会
The best thing you can do for yourself is to try
to be a better person-and to consciously improve
yourself and your life.Choosing to "be better"
will not only make you feel better,but will also
bring better people,opportunities,and possibili-
ties into your life.Here are some ways to become
a better person.
1 Admit the good,the bad,and the ug-
ly and embrace it.In order to improve as a per-
son,you first have to be really aware of who you
are and who you are not.
We are not saying that you should give su-
perficial compliments(赞美),we are saying that
you should really compliment someone for something
they do or who they are.2 And this little gift
will make a difference in their lives.

很挑剔。)”可知,这项新的研究表明,这些蛇类
也像我们人类一样需要社会交流,需要选择它
们的社交伙伴,也就是说它们也有朋友和
友谊。]
6.B[细节理解题。根据第五段“..partly be
cause many societies are more accepting of such
a concept,and because researchers have far
better tools for gathering and analyzing the da-
ta(与30年前相比,现在的科学家可能更善于发
现动物之间的友谊,部分原因是许多社会更能
接受这样的概念,也因为研究人员有更好的工
具来收集和分析数据)”可知,由于有了更多的
社会支持和更好的设备,动物之间的友谊能得
到更好的研究。]
7.C[推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“.·such
partnerships must be offering some benefit-
otherwise the animals would not waste the en-
ergy forming such bonds.(这样的伙伴关系必
须能带来一些好处,否则它们就不会浪费精力来
建立这样的关系。)”可知,蛇的友谊特殊之处在于
蛇交朋友是为给自己带来好处。]
8.A[主旨大意题。本文主要是介绍一项新的研
究发现,大多数人以往对蛇类动物那种冷漠的
传统观念是错误的,它们也像人类一样拥有
朋友。]

话题:成为更好的人
Surprise your friends,your partner,or your
children.No matter how old we are,we all love
surprises-good ones,of course.And it doesn't
have to be a big gesture,sometimes a simple
message,card,or letter is enough.Be creative!
Creating something that other people can
benefit from is priceless.Whether craft or busi-
ness,whether blog or book,whether special food
or an entire restaurant.3
4 Give up bad habits and replace them
with good ones.If you can't give up your bad
habits right away,start small until you can really
get rid of them.
Is there a person that hurt you in the past,
and you still are mad at the person or don't talk
to him or her?5 Can we develop compassion
in any form by dealing with it?

A.Lots of people want to feel valued.
B.One man's meat is another man's poison.
C.Smoking,gossiping,or judging-please don't!
D.Can we leave behind the pain or misunder-
standing?
E.To become a better person,one must always
be true to oneself.
F.Can you give a hand to people that you are not
so familiar with?
G.Keep thinking about how you can add value to
your community.
[语篇解读]这是一篇应用文。文章指出成为更
好的人好处良多,并给出了一些具体方法。
l.E[文章第一段以“Here are some ways to be
come a better person.(这里是一些成为更好的
人的方法。)”可知,接下来的段落都是如何成为
更好的人的不同方法。本段缺少主题句,空白
后的两句话“Admit the good,the bad,and the
ugly and embrace it.In order to improve as a
person,you first have to be really aware of
who you are and who you are not..(承认好的、
坏的以及丑陋的一面并坦然接受。它们为了成
为更好的人,你首先必须真正意识到自己是怎
样的人、不是怎样的人。)”可知,本段的主题是
承认自己、接纳自己,E选项“要成为一个更好
的人,就必须总是忠实于自己。”符合这一主题,
适合作为主题句。]

对应。]
3.G[本段主题为“创造一些其他人能从中受益
的东西是无价的”,空白前句列举了“Whether
craft or business,whether blog or book,
whether special food or an entire restaurant.
(无论是一门手艺或生意,博客或书籍,还是特

样能给社区增加价值。”中的add value to your
community正对应了列举的这些例子的作用,
切合段落主题。]
4.C[由空白后句“Give up bad habits and re
place them with good ones.(放弃坏习惯并用好
习惯取代之。)”可知本段讲的方法是戒除坏习
惯,C选项“抽烟、说三道四或是指指点点
请别这样做!”符合本段主题,适合作为主
题句。]
5.D[空白前后句分别是两个问句,分别询问“是
否有人曾伤害过你、你还对他怀恨在心”以及
“通过处理这些我们能否发展出任何形式的同
情心”,D选项“我们能不能抛下伤痛和误解?”
符合句式特点,三个问句在逻辑层次上也是递
进的,共同表达“放下芥蒂、原谅过去”的段落
主题。]
