Throughout the past year, we followed some interesting new inventions in the field of artificial intelligence (AI). Here is a look back at some notable AI developments in 2022.
Meta’s speech-to-speech translation
Facebook’s parent Meta said it had built a technology tool to directly translate between English and the Hokkien language, a spoken language without a widely used written form.
Meta said it trained its AI models on written text examples from Mandarin Chinese. In addition, developers used an encoding tool designed to compare spoken Hokkien to similar English text.
Method to identify Parkinson’s disease
Researchers announced a new Al method to identify Parkinson’s disease. The system works by measuring a person’s breathing patterns during sleep. With just one night of sleep, the Al system was able to correctly identify Parkinson’s up to 86 percent of the time. With 12 nights of data, the rate went up to 95 percent.
Tool to interpret pig emotions
Researchers announced they had created a technology tool that uses pig sounds to interpret different emotions.
The tool is based on thousands of recordings collected from more than 400 pigs throughout their lives. The scientists developed an AI-driven algorithm to identify a series of emotions pigs could be experiencing. It is expected to lead to further systems farmers can use to improve the productivity and well-being of their animals.
Tool to fill in missing words in ancient writings
Researchers — led by Alphabet’s AI company Deep Mind — said they developed an Al system to help fill in missing words in ancient writings. The tool, called Ithaca, is designed to help historians repair the writings and identify when and where they were written.
The team said that when historians work on their own, the success rate for repairing damaged writings is about 25 percent. But when humans teamed up with Ithaca to assist in their work, the success rate jumped to 72 percent.

The Story of the Gettysburg Address (葛底斯堡演说)
By Leslie W. Leavitt & Abraham Lincoln
One of the great and bloody battles of the war was the battle of Gettysburg. Here the Southern armies were beaten and driven back into the South, but not until many thousands of brave men on both sides had lost their lives. They were buried where they fell.
Later a great meeting was held on the battlefield of Gettysburg to honor the brave dead. Thousands of people came from miles around to the meeting, and to hear the two speakers, Mr. Everett and President Lincoln. Mr. Everett was a man of wide experience, the president of a college, one who had travelled much, a fine speaker. He spoke for two hours.
Lincoln rose to speak. He had given but little thought and time to what he was to say, and had only just finished writing the end of his speech before riding out to the field. He stood before the greatest crowd, tall and thin, his sad face showing the sorrow of the war. He was silent for a moment, and then, as though he did not see the crowd, he spoke slowly, in a high voice, for three minutes. Its simple and beautiful English, its noble meaning and forgiving spirit, make it one of the greatest speeches of the world. Its famous ending is well known:
“The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work, which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us — that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion — that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom — and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish(湮灭) from the earth.”
4. Who do the underlined words in Paragraph 2 “the brave dead” refer to?
A. The buried Southern armies. B. The dead Northern soldiers.
C. The late brave on both sides. D. The people to the battlefield.
5. What can we learn about the two speakers?
A. They were presidents of the nation. B. They both had rich experience in field trip.
C. They made long-term preparations. D. They gave fine addresses in different manners.
6. Which of the following is NOT a reason to make Lincoln’s speech great?
A. The plain and literary style. B. The slow pace and the high voice.
C. The high purpose of the great task. D. The spirit of pardon and tolerance.
7. What does Lincoln think of the great cause?
A. No longer unforgettable. B. Far from nobly advanced.
C. Well worth increased devotion. D. In a vain attempt and resolution.

The fragrance of pressed grapes perfumes the mountain air in the small village of Tharma in Sangri county of the Tibetan autonomous region this time of year.
Grape cultivation in the county, which is the highest location on the planet where grapes are grown, sits at an average altitude of 3600 meters above sea level. It has increased the wealth of the residents and created a whole new local industry that is prospering. Organic grape growing was introduced to the county, which is blessed by a mild climate and moderate sunshine, via an Aid-Tibet project funded by Hunan province, and since 2011,the cultivation area has increased from less than 1 hectare(公顷) to nearly 666 hectares. The vineyards in Sangri county were recognized in 2021 for their production of green, pollution-free products.
“The harvest season for grapes and the best time for making wine are right now. We’ve finished with picking the grapes and we’ve been busy making wine lately,” Luo Minglu, a manager at Sangri County Pakdrub Rongshun Zhuangyuan Co-which operates the business-was quoted as saying by China News Service.
The company has played a key role in bringing suppliers and local households together to produce wine and other products that have improved the standard of living in the area.
Between 2016 and 2022, the company’s cumulative (累积的) grape yield reached 590 metric tons. More than 500 villagers were employed last year, with more than 2.9 million yuan($406,000) spent on salaries. The grape yield and the wine production of the company had reached 350 tons and 150 tons by 2022, respectively.
Yangjen Lhamo, an employee at Sangri County Pakdrub Rorgshun Zhuangyuan, said she and her sister have worked at the company for years, and not only do they enjoy their toils and spoils (辛勤劳作) but the vineyards are located very close to home. “I earn nearly 6,000, yuan a month, and I am very pleased with my job,” she said. “Thanks to the good policies from the government, it is easy to have a better life if we work hard.
8. What makes Sangri suitable for grape cultivation?
A. An altitude of 3600 meters from the horizon. B. The fertile soil in Sangri county of this region.
C. The climate neither too hot nor too cold. D. The ample sunshine and the rainfalls.
9. What is the function of the last two paragraphs?
A. To present their satisfying working conditions.
B. To describe their busy but meaningful daily lives.
C. To explain the good policies from the government.
D. To show the improving standards of living in this area.
10. Where does this article most probably come from?
A. A scientific paper. B. A meeting minute. C. A newsreel. D. A travel brochure.
11. What’s the best title of this passage?
A. World’s highest grapes cultivate better life in Tibet.
B. Grape yield and ecological balance go hand in hand.
C. The wine production is booming in China.
D. Grape industry soared up in Sangri.

Imagine a future where science has created your twin. Not a flesh-and-blood twin, but one that recreates your flesh and blood, your bones, your heart, your brain — your whole body, in fact — as an extremely complicated computer model.
Your doctors can use this digital twin to work out how you will respond to a particular drug or medical procedure. They can even look further into the future, creating a “healthcast”, to forecast what diseases might happen to you or how your lifestyle will affect your health as you age. It is the ultimate in personalized medicine. This is the bold vision set out in Virtual You: How building your digital twin will revolutionize medicine and change your life by Peter Coveney, director of the Centre for Computational Science, and Roger Highfield, science director of the Science Museum Group, UK.
Digital twins are already in widespread use in industries such as civil engineering. But these model systems are much simpler than the complex human body. Imagine all the parts that come together to make you work: from the 3 billion letters of your genome (基因组), the numerous molecules (分子) that make up your cells, the trillions of cells building your tissues and organs, and the environment having its input too. Now, imagine trying to create a model of this that is made to each unique individual and that predicts the changes that will take place over a lifetime. This is easier said than done. Changes in the systems biologists want to describe are usually different from what mathematicians describe as “non-linear” (非线性的). Another complication is “emergence”: where the whole of a system is greater than the sum of its parts. This complexity challenges mathematics and pushes computing to the limit too.
But getting to the next level — a whole human individual — is going to require yet more data and a revolution in computing technology far beyond what is currently possible. Whether we will get there is an open question, but Virtual You shows us what scientists from different fields can achieve when they all work together.
12. What be learned about your science-made twin according to Paragraph 1?
A. Your twin looks just like you.
B. Your twin knows your thoughts.
C. Your twin exists on the computer.
D. Your twin is created out of your DNA.
13. Why is it difficult to build a digital twin?
A. Human body is more complicated than models.
B. Digital twins are not widely used in industries.
C. Scientists lack enough data in building it.
D. Mathematicians and biologists hold different opinions.
14. What’s the author’s attitude towards the idea of a digital twin?
A. Optimistic.
B. Uncertain.
C. Unconcerned.
D. Skeptical.
15. What is the purpose of this text?
A. To stress the necessity of digital twins.
B. To show the effects of digital twins on future health.
C. To explain the building of digital twins in health.
D. To introduce new treatments for diseases in the future.

Blind Olympic Athletes Show the Universal Nature
Tune into any sports coverage on TV, and you will see many athletes proudly raise their arms and heads in victory, while a much larger number hang their shoulders and necks in defeat. Studies have revealed why—they are universal behaviours, performed by humans in response to success and failure.
The discovery came from Jessica Tracy from the University of British Columbia and David Matsumoto from San Francisco State University, who wanted to see how people showed feelings of pride and shame. _____16_____ They tried to find a large group of people, and it was critically important that some of these subjects had never seen other people reacting to success or failure before.
The answer was Athens, during the 2004 Olympic Games. Its sister competition—the Paralympics—included many athletes who were born blind. _____17_____ Working with a professional photographer, Tracy and Matsumoto compared the body language of 108 competitors, 41 of whom had lost their sight, and 12 of whom were blind from birth. The photographer repeatedly took pictures of these athletes after their competitions, and the researchers carefully recorded the positions of their heads, arms and bodies. _____18_____ The winners tilted their heads up, smiled, lifted their arms and puffed out their chests, while shoulders bent forward and narrowed chests were the marks of losers.
_____19_____ Men and women who have never seen other people behave in these ways still make exactly the same movements. And while it’s possible that parents may have taught their blind children some of these actions, it’s very unlikely that they could have taught them all—particularly the expansion or narrowing of the chest.
These actions were also remarkably consistent between contestants from every part of the world. Tracy and Matsumoto argue that pride and shame deserve a place alongside other primary emotions like happiness, fear and surprise. _____20_____
A. Analyzing the data, they found that the sighted and sightless athletes behaved in almost exactly the same ways.
B. In fact, the culture was found to have only a very small effect on their body language.
C. In particular, they wanted to know whether these expressions were culturally determined and learned through observation.
D. The athletes’ behaviours give strong evidence that they have had the actions naturally since birth.
E. The result suggested that the athletes were showing their pride based on careful observation.
F. Therefore, they could not have witnessed how other people reacted to winning and losing.
G. They are inborn behaviours and are accompanied by their own distinct sets of actions.

The Story of the Gettysburg Address (葛底斯堡演说)
By Leslie W. Leavitt & Abraham Lincoln
One of the great and bloody battles of the war was the battle of Gettysburg. Here the Southern armies were beaten and driven back into the South, but not until many thousands of brave men on both sides had lost their lives. They were buried where they fell.
Later a great meeting was held on the battlefield of Gettysburg to honor the brave dead. Thousands of people came from miles around to the meeting, and to hear the two speakers, Mr. Everett and President Lincoln. Mr. Everett was a man of wide experience, the president of a college, one who had travelled much, a fine speaker. He spoke for two hours.
Lincoln rose to speak. He had given but little thought and time to what he was to say and had only just finished writing the end of his speech before riding out to the field. He stood before the greatest crowd, tall and thin, his sad face showing the sorrow of the war. He was silent for a moment, and then, as though he did not see the crowd, he spoke slowly, in a high voice, for three minutes. Its simple and beautiful English, its noble meaning and forgiving spirit, make it one of the greatest speeches of the world. Its famous ending is well known:
“The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work, which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us — that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion — that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom — and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish(湮灭) from the earth.”
4. Who do the underlined words in Paragraph 2 “the brave dead” refer to?
A. The buried Southern armies. B. The dead Northern soldiers.
C. The late brave on both sides. D. The people to the battlefield.
5. What can we learn about the two speakers?
A. They were presidents of the nation. B. They both had rich experience in field trip.
C. They made long-term preparations. D. They gave fine addresses in different manners.
6. Which of the following is NOT a reason to make Lincoln’s speech great?
A. The plain and literary style. B. The slow pace and the high voice.
C. The high purpose of the great task. D. The spirit of pardon and tolerance.
7. What does Lincoln think of the great cause?
A. No longer unforgettable. B. Far from nobly advanced.
C. Well worth increased devotion. D. In a vain attempt and resolution.

The fragrance of pressed grapes perfumes the mountain air in the small village of Tharma in Sangri county of the Tibetan autonomous region this time of year.
Grape cultivation in the county, which is the highest location on the planet where grapes are grown, sits at an average altitude of 3600 meters above sea level. It has increased the wealth of the residents and created a whole new local industry that is prospering. Organic grape growing was introduced to the county, which is blessed by a mild climate and moderate sunshine, via an Aid-Tibet project funded by Hunan province, and since 2011,the cultivation area has increased from less than 1 hectare(公顷) to nearly 666 hectares. The vineyards in Sangri county were recognized in 2021 for their production of green, pollution-free products.
“The harvest season for grapes and the best time for making wine are right now. We’ve finished with picking the grapes and we’ve been busy making wine lately,” Luo Minglu, a manager at Sangri County Pakdrub Rongshun Zhuangyuan Co-which operates the business-was quoted as saying by China News Service.
The company has played a key role in bringing suppliers and local households together to produce wine and other products that have improved the standard of living in the area.
Between 2016 and 2022, the company’s cumulative (累积的) grape yield reached 590 metric tons. More than 500 villagers were employed last year, with more than 2.9 million yuan($406,000) spent on salaries. The grape yield and the wine production of the company had reached 350 tons and 150 tons by 2022, respectively.
Yangjen Lhamo, an employee at Sangri County Pakdrub Rorgshun Zhuangyuan, said she and her sister have worked at the company for years, and not only do they enjoy their toils and spoils (辛勤劳作) but the vineyards are located very close to home. “I earn nearly 6,000, yuan a month, and I am very pleased with my job,” she said. “Thanks to the good policies from the government, it is easy to have a better life if we work hard.

Imagine a future where science has created your twin. Not a flesh-and-blood twin, but one that recreates your flesh and blood, your bones, your heart, your brain — your whole body, in fact — as an extremely complicated computer model.
Your doctors can use this digital twin to work out how you will respond to a particular drug or medical procedure. They can even look further into the future, creating a “healthcast”, to forecast what diseases might happen to you or how your lifestyle will affect your health as you age. It is the ultimate in personalized medicine. This is the bold vision set out in Virtual You: How building your digital twin will revolutionize medicine and change your life by Peter Coveney, director of the Centre for Computational Science, and Roger Highfield, science director of the Science Museum Group, UK.
Digital twins are already in widespread use in industries such as civil engineering. But these model systems are much simpler than the complex human body. Imagine all the parts that come together to make you work: from the 3 billion letters of your genome (基因组), the numerous molecules (分子) that make up your cells, the trillions of cells building your tissues and organs, and the environment having its input too. Now, imagine trying to create a model of this that is made to each unique individual and that predicts the changes that will take place over a lifetime. This is easier said than done. Changes in the systems biologists want to describe are usually different from what mathematicians describe as “non-linear” (非线性的). Another complication is “emergence”: where the whole of a system is greater than the sum of its parts. This complexity challenges mathematics and pushes computing to the limit too.
But getting to the next level — a whole human individual — is going to require yet more data and a revolution in computing technology far beyond what is currently possible. Whether we will get there is an open question, but Virtual You shows us what scientists from different fields can achieve when they all work together.
12. What be learned about your science-made twin according to Paragraph 1?
A. Your twin looks just like you.
B. Your twin knows your thoughts.
C. Your twin exists on the computer.
D. Your twin is created out of your DNA.
13. Why is it difficult to build a digital twin?
A. Human body is more complicated than models.
B. Digital twins are not widely used in industries.
C. Scientists lack enough data in building it.
D. Mathematicians and biologists hold different opinions.
14. What’s the author’s attitude towards the idea of a digital twin?
A. Optimistic.
B. Uncertain.
C. Unconcerned.
D. Skeptical.
15. What is the purpose of this text?
A. To stress the necessity of digital twins.
B. To show the effects of digital twins on future health.
C. To explain the building of digital twins in health.
D. To introduce new treatments for diseases in the future.

Blind Olympic Athletes Show the Universal Nature
Tune into any sports coverage on TV, and you will see many athletes proudly raise their arms and heads in victory, while a much larger number hang their shoulders and necks in defeat. Studies have revealed why—they are universal behaviours, performed by humans in response to success and failure.
The discovery came from Jessica Tracy from the University of British Columbia and David Matsumoto from San Francisco State University, who wanted to see how people showed feelings of pride and shame. _____16_____ They tried to find a large group of people, and it was critically important that some of these subjects had never seen other people reacting to success or failure before.
The answer was Athens, during the 2004 Olympic Games. Its sister competition—the Paralympics—included many athletes who were born blind. _____17_____ Working with a professional photographer, Tracy and Matsumoto compared the body language of 108 competitors, 41 of whom had lost their sight, and 12 of whom were blind from birth. The photographer repeatedly took pictures of these athletes after their competitions, and the researchers carefully recorded the positions of their heads, arms and bodies. _____18_____ The winners tilted their heads up, smiled, lifted their arms and puffed out their chests, while shoulders bent forward and narrowed chests were the marks of losers.
_____19_____ Men and women who have never seen other people behave in these ways still make exactly the same movements. And while it’s possible that parents may have taught their blind children some of these actions, it’s very unlikely that they could have taught them all—particularly the expansion or narrowing of the chest.
These actions were also remarkably consistent between contestants from every part of the world. Tracy and Matsumoto argue that pride and shame deserve a place alongside other primary emotions like happiness, fear and surprise. _____20_____
A. Analyzing the data, they found that the sighted and sightless athletes behaved in almost exactly the same ways.
B. In fact, the culture was found to have only a very small effect on their body language.
C. In particular, they wanted to know whether these expressions were culturally determined and learned through observation.
D. The athletes’ behaviours give strong evidence that they have had the actions naturally since birth.
E. The result suggested that the athletes were showing their pride based on careful observation.
F. Therefore, they could not have witnessed how other people reacted to winning and losing.
G. They are inborn behaviours and are accompanied by their own distinct sets of actions.
【答案】16. C 17. F 18. A 19. D 20. G
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了一项研究发现，人们对成功和失败的反应是天生的，并介绍了这一研究开展的过程以及研究发现。
【16题详解】
根据上文“The discovery came from Jessica Tracy from the University of British Columbia and David Matsumoto from San Francisco State University, who wanted to see how people showed feelings of pride and shame. (这一发现来自英属哥伦比亚大学的Jessica Tracy和旧金山州立大学的David Matsumoto，他们想知道人们是如何表达自豪和羞愧的。)”可知，上文提到Jessica Tracy和David Matsumoto想知道人们是如何表达自豪和羞愧的，本句应承接上文进一步说明他们想法，C选项中they指代上文中Jessica Tracy和David Matsumoto。故C选项“他们尤其想知道这些表达方式是否是文化决定的，是否是通过观察习得的。”符合语境，故选C。
【17题详解】
根据上文“Its sister competition—the Paralympics—included many athletes who were born blind. (它的姊妹比赛——残奥会——包括许多天生失明的运动员。)”可知，上文提到残奥会包括许多眼睛看不见的运动员，故本句与上文构成因果关系，表示这些人无法目睹其他人对胜利和失败的反应，F选项中they指代上文many athletes who were born blind。故F选项“因此，他们无法目睹其他人对胜利和失败的反应。”符合语境，呼应第二段“They tried to find a large group of people, and it was critically important that some of these subjects had never seen other people reacting to success or failure before.(他们试图找到一大群人，其中一些人之前从未见过其他人对成功或失败做出反应，这一点非常重要。)”，故选F。
【18题详解】
根据上文“Working with a professional photographer, Tracy and Matsumoto compared the body language of 108 competitors, 41 of whom had lost their sight, and 12 of whom were blind from birth. The photographer repeatedly took pictures of these athletes after their competitions, and the researchers carefully recorded the positions of their heads, arms and bodies. (在一位专业摄影师的帮助下，Tracy和Matsumoto比较了108名参赛者的肢体语言，其中41人后天失明，12人从出生就失明。摄影师在运动员比赛结束后反复拍照，研究人员仔细记录他们头部、手臂和身体的姿势。)”以及后文“The winners tilted their heads up, smiled, lifted their arms and puffed out their chests, while shoulders bent forward and narrowed chests were the marks of losers. (获胜者仰起头、微笑、举起双臂、挺起胸膛，而失败者的标志是肩膀前倾、胸膛狭窄。 )”可知，上文提到Tracy和Matsumoto在对比运动员的姿势，后文则提到了一些获胜者和失败者所共有的肢体动作，可推测他们发现有视力和失明的运动员的行为方式几乎完全相同，故A选项“通过思路点拨数据，他们发现有视力和失明的运动员的行为方式几乎完全相同。”符合语境，故选 A 。
【19题详解】
根据上一段中“The winners tilted their heads up, smiled, lifted their arms and puffed out their chests, while shoulders bent forward and narrowed chests were the marks of losers. (获胜者仰起头、微笑、举起双臂、挺起胸膛，而失败者的标志是肩膀前倾、胸膛狭窄。)”以及后文“Men and women who have never seen other people behave in these ways still make exactly the same movements. And while it’s possible that parents may have taught their blind children some of these actions, it’s very unlikely that they could have taught them all—particularly the expansion or narrowing of the chest. (从来没有见过别人有这种行为的男人和女人仍然做出完全相同的动作。虽然父母可能教过他们的盲童一些这些动作，但他们不太可能教过他们——尤其是胸部的扩张或缩小。)”可知，上一段对比的结果是有视力和失明的运动员行为方式几乎完全相同，都做出了一些共有的动作，后文则提到从来没有见过别人有这种行为的男人和女人仍然做出完全相同的动作，可推测他们的行为证明了这些动作能力是天生就有的。故D选项“运动员的行为有力地证明了他们从出生起就具有天生的动作能力。”符合语境，故选D。
【20题详解】
根据上文“These actions were also remarkably consistent between contestants from every part of the world. Tracy and Matsumoto argue that pride and shame deserve a place alongside other primary emotions like happiness, fear and surprise. (这些动作在来自世界各地的选手之间也非常一致。Tracy和Matsumoto认为，骄傲和羞耻应该和其他基本情感，如快乐、恐惧和惊讶，一起占有一席之地。 )”可知，来自世界各地的选手动作也一致，说明骄傲和羞耻是天生的行为，G选项中They指代上文中pride and shame。故G选项“它们是天生的行为，伴随着它们自己独特的一系列行为。”符合语境，故选G 。

54. How did it come about ________ a quiet person should appear so wild today? (用适当的词填空)
【答案】that
【解析】

第四部分 写作(共两节，满分21分)
第一节(共2小题;每小题3分，满分6分)
根据情境，翻译下面句子。
55. 面对巨额账单，他尴尬地搓着手。(汉译英)
【答案】Facing the huge bill, he rubbed his hands in embarrassment.
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词、固定短语和时态。根据汉语提示并分析句子结构，“面对巨额账单”可翻译为非谓语动词短语，作状语。“面对”可表示为face；“巨额账单”可表示为huge bill；“尴尬地”可表示为in embarrassment；“搓着手”可表示为rub one’s hands。face和逻辑主语“他”(he)之间是主谓关系，所以这里应用现在分词。根据句意，这里表示过去的动作，应用一般过去时。故本句可翻译为：Facing the huge bill, he rubbed his hands in embarrassment.
56. 太羞愧了，以至于他微微低下身子，涨红了脸。(汉译英)
【答案】So ashamed was he that he lowered his body a bit with his face turning red.
【解析】
【详解】考查结果状语从句、倒装句、with复合结构。根据汉语中的“太……以至于……”可知，这里应用so...that...引导结果状语从句，so后跟形容词或副词，当so连同其修饰的成分位于句首时，主句应用部分倒装，即将助动词、be动词或情态动词提到主语之前。“羞愧”可表示为ashamed，为形容词，可作be动词的表语；“微微低下身子”可表示为lower one’s body a bit。句中的“涨红了脸”可表示为with复合结构，其中“脸”(face)和“涨红”(turn red)之间是主谓关系，所以应用现在分词。故本句可翻译为：So ashamed was he that he lowered his body a bit with his face turning red.
