Braille, the tactile reading system blind peple can use t read text, is in mre places than yu may first realize, which wrks by using six tactile dts （触点）set in tw clumns and three rws, knwn as cells. Each raised dt relates t a letter, a number r a mark, and each letter has its wn pattern f dts.

If a patient knew their dctr was ging t give them bad infrmatin during an upcming appintment, they’d cancel immediately. Generative AI mdels such as ChatGPT, hwever, frequently make stuff up t cheat ur eyes. S why wuld anyne want t use an AI fr medical purpses?
Here’s the ptimistic scenari (设想): nt nly d AI tls get trained n medical literature, but they als scan patient recrds and smart watch data. Then, they prduce persnalized tips t each user, accurate enugh t be helpful. The dystpian versin: gvernments, insurance cmpanies, and the medical enterprises push immature AI t cut csts, leaving patients desperate fr medical care frm clinicians. Right nw, it’s easy t imagine things ging wrng, especially because AI has already been accused f ffering harmful advice nline.
"ChatGPT and ther large language mdels are very cnfident, they express themselves clearly, and they’re very ften wrng," says Mark Dredze, a prfessr at Jhns Hpkins University. Still, he is ptimistic. ChatGPT already gives advice that’s cmparable t the recmmendatins physicians ffer nline, his newly published research has fund. And future generative mdels might cmplement （完善） trips t the dctr, rather than replacing cnsults entirely. They culd help explain treatments and cnditins, such as preventing misunderstandings due t language barriers. In a mre prmising future, AI systems wuld cmbine multiple data surces. Using phts, patient recrds, infrmatin frm wearable sensrs, and mre, they culd deliver gd care anywhere t anyne.
As medical AI develps, the industry must keep grwing amunts f patient data secure. But many hspitals already sell sensitive patient data t tech cmpanies. Smene suggests that that infrmatin be added t natinal data sets t imprve medical AI mdels. Additinally, the gvernment culd review the accuracy f AI tls used by hspitals and medical grups and cut ff valuable funding fr substandard sftware. Dctrs shuldn’t just be handed AI tls, either, they shuld receive extensive training n hw t use them.
It’s easy t see hw Al cmpanies might trick rganizatins and patients int signing up fr services that can’t be trusted. Lawmakers, heal the are prviders and tech cmpanies need t mve ahead with cautin （谨慎）. Lives depend n it.

10．Accrding t Mark Dredze, what can AI pssibly help d?

I am smewhat a hard-wrking wman and dn’t like t fail a test. Thus, yu can imagine my hrrr when a friend and I tk an nline persnality test t determine levels f ptimism-and I’m sadder than Eeyre, a pessimistic cartn figure！
I had assumed that, as an ptimist like Ph, anther cartn figure, I saw the best in peple, happier than pessimists. There was n reasn t suggest this was true, but s deeply did I believe it that I felt ashamed f my test. I tried t justify the result t my friend： it was a bad week； the weather was depressing； I wasn’t a pessimist； I was a realist. My pr pessimistic self kept explaining until my friend put me ut f my pain. Pessimism and ptimism are just a state f being and we can mve between the tw.
Apparently, there are three things t think abut here. First, hw persnally d yu take things? If a friend is in a bad md, d yu assume it is t d with yu, r that they’re just a bit upset that day? Optimists favur the latter and knw they’re nt respnsible fr everything all arund. Secnd, hw pervasive （遍布的） is a feeling fr yu? If smething ges wrng, d yu see it as a single incident, r a sign that mre bad luck will fllw? Eeyres see a missed mrning alarm as a dark sign fr the entire day. Finally, hw permanent d yu think a situatin is? Phs believe in the saying, "This t shall pass," but Beyres believe a bad situatin will stay that way frever.
I started t see hw my current view f the wrld was making me a pessimist. I knw I can take things persnally but,when I tk the test,I was burnt ut at wrk and feeling like I was letting everyne dwn.
S, hw t change? I started small-when I was feeling unhappy in a situatin, I’d ask myself, "Hw wuld a Ph see this?" 1 repeated the saying and chse t believe in hpe, because that’s what ptimists d.
12．What was the authr’s respnse t the test result?
A.She tk it seriusly.
B.She treated it as a jke.
C.She chse t ignre it.
D.She admitted its accuracy.
13．What might be a prper understanding f ptimism and pessimism?
A.Optimism causes mre harm than pessimism.
B.Optimism and pessimism are defined by tests.
C.Bth f them are just a matter f persnal chice.
D.They are fixed and nrmally nt interchangeable.
14．What might Phs think after a pssible traffic accident?
A.It is always thers’ fault.
B.It is a single incident.
C.It is a warning t drive less.
D.It is a bad sign f misfrtune.
15．Which wuld be the best title fr the text?

二、七选五

Is the glass half full r half empty? As the saying teaches us, it’s abut yur view. But if yu find yurself viewing the glass as half-empty mre ften than nt, yu may be experiencing a scarcity mindset(稀缺心态). ①
The term was riginally cined t describe a specific type f anxiety experienced by peple whse incmes are belw the gvernment pverty line. ② It's ften applied t ther parts f life, t. Wh hasn't stayed up all night wndering what culd be imprved in their life if they had A, B r C?
③ The rt cause culd be a life-changing event that makes yu fcus n what yu’ve lst r are missing. This might be lsing a jb, climbing credit card bills r ending a relatinship.
Of curse, it’s easier said than dne t get ut f this kind f mindset. Yu can take baby steps tward it. The first step is accepting that it’ll be impssible t get rid f these thughts vernight. When negative thughts appear, yu may tell yurself: ④ But psychlgists recmmend an acceptance mindset. Tell yurself this instead: I d feel this way, but this desn’t have t ttally preccupy me.
What’s mre, surrund yurself with supprtive, psitive peple. Smetimes, being arund the peple cnstantly reminding yu f what yu dn’t have can bring ut the negative thughts running arund in yur mind. ⑤ And find new friends that help empwer yur psitive thughts instead f yur negative nes. If yur negative thughts are really starting t get t yu, it may be gd t seek a therapist(治疗师)wh can help yu.
A.A scarcity mindset can arise frm a lt f things.
B.But a scarcity mindset isn’t always abut finances.
C.This is because yur brain isn’t gd at multitasking.
D.This is when yu becme preccupied with what yu dn’t have.

G.Yu can d this by simply speaking psitive thughts ut lud t peple arund yu.

11．答案： D
解析： 推理判断题。根据文章内容可知,文章第二段描述了AI在医学领域可能存在的两个极端情况,即理想情况下AI可以为患者提供个性化的、足够准确的建议,而不好的情况下AI可能被不成熟地应用,给患者带来问题。第三段引用了Mark Dredze的话,提到AI可能有助于改善沟通,减少误解。第四段则提到随着医疗AI的发展,需要确保患者数据的安全,同时提出了一些措施,如将患者信息添加到国家数据集、政府审查AI工具的准确性、医生接受培训等。最后一段提到AI公司可能会欺骗组织和患者,因此立法者、医疗保健提供者和科技公司需要谨慎行事。因此,可以推断出作者认为将AI应用于医学是值得共同努力的,但需要谨慎行事并采取措施确保安全和准确性。故选D。
12．答案： A
解析： 细节理解题。根据文章第二段" I had assumed that, as an ptimist like Ph, anther cartn figure, I saw the best in peple, happier than pessimists. There was n reasn t suggest this was true, but s deeply did I believe it that I felt ashamed f my test.

13．答案： C
解析： 细节理解题。根据文章第二段"My pr pessimistic self kept explaining until my friend put me ut f my pain.Pessimism and ptimism are just a state f being and we can mve between the tw.（我那可怜的悲观自我一直在解释,直到朋友让我摆脱了痛苦。悲观和乐观只是一种存在状态,我们可以在两者之间转换。）"可知,人们可以在不同情况下根据自己的认知和情绪反应,在乐观和悲观之间做出选择或转换。因此,这是一种个人选择。故选C。
14．答案： B
解析： 推理判断题。根据文章第二段" I had assumed that, as an ptimist like Ph, anther cartn figure, I saw the best in peple, happier than pessimists.（我一直以为自己像另一个卡通人物小熊维尼一样是个乐观主义者,我总是看到人们最好的一面,比悲观主义者更快乐。）"可知,作者认为小熊维尼是个乐观主义者。再根据文章第三段" If a friend is in a bad md, d yu assume it is t d with yu, r that they’re just a bit upset that day? Optimists favur the latter and knw they’re nt respnsible fr everything all arund. Secnd, hw pervasive （遍布的） is a feeling fr yu? If smething ges wrng, d yu see it as a single incident, r a sign that mre bad luck will fllw? Eeyres see a missed mrning alarm as a dark sign fr the entire day. Finally, hw permanent d yu think a situatin is? Phs believe in the saying, "This t shall pass," but Beyres believe a bad situatin will stay that way frever.（如果朋友心情不好,你会认为这与你有关,还是只是他们那天有点沮丧?乐观主义者倾向于后者,并且知道他们不可能为周围的一切负责。其次,你对一种感觉有多大的普遍性认知?如果出了什么问题,你是把它看作一个单独的事件,还是认为它预示着更多的不幸将会接踵而至?Eeyres会把错过早上的闹钟看作是一整天的不祥之兆。最后,你认为一种情况会持续多久?小熊维尼相信"这一切都会过去的"这句话,但Eeyres却认为糟糕的情况会永远持续下去。）"可推测,乐观主义者倾向于将坏事视为单独的事件,而不是一连串不幸的开始。因此,小熊维尼在可能的交通事故后可能会认为"它是一个单独的事件"。故选B。
15．答案： B
解析： 主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知,文章通过作者参加在线性格测试,引出对乐观（以小熊维尼为代表）与悲观（以Eeyre为代表）态度的讨论。文章强调,乐观和悲观并非固定不变,而是可以在个人努力和意识转变下发生变化的。选项B"Ph t Eeyre！"直接引用了文章中的两个角色,小熊维尼（乐观的代表）和Eeyre（悲观的代表）,通过"到"这个词暗示了从悲观向乐观的转变,与文章主旨相符。故选B。
16．答案： D； B； A； E； F
解析： ①根据空前内容"But if yu find yurself viewing the glass as half-empty mre ften than nt,yu may be experiencing a scarcity mindset（稀缺心态）.（但是,如果你发现自己经常看到杯子是半空的,那么你可能正经历着一种稀缺心态。）"可知,上文提到了稀缺心态这一概念。选项D"This is when yu becme preccupied with what yu dn't have.（这发生在当你全神贯注于你没有的东西时。）"延续上文内容,指出稀缺心态发生场合。故选D。
②根据空前内容"The term was riginally cined t describe a specific type f anxiety experienced by peple whse incmes are belw the gvernment pverty line.（这个词最初是用来描述收入低于政府贫困线的人所经历的一种特定类型的焦虑。）"可知,稀缺心态通常用来描述收入低的人的焦虑。选项B"But a scarcity mindset isn't always abut finances.（但稀缺心态并不总是与财务有关。）"与上文存在转折,指出稀缺心态并不总是和钱有关,从而自然引出下文"It's ften applied t ther parts f life,t.（这也经常适用于生活的其他方面。）"故选B。

④根据上文"When negative thughts appear,yu may tell yurself：（当负面想法出现时,你可能会告诉自己：）"以及下文"But psychlgists recmmendan acceptance mindset.（但是心理学家建议接受心态。）"可知,前后文是转折关系,所以此空应该填写一个表示拒绝接受负面想法的句子。选项E"I'm nt ging t think abut this and I'll just ignre these feelings entirely.（我不会去想它,我会完全忽略这些感觉。）"中的"ignre these feelings"与前文的"negative thughts"相呼应,都表示对负面想法的忽视。故选E。
⑤根据上文"Smetimes,being arund the peple cnstantly reminding yu f what yu dn't havecan bring ut the negative thughts running arund in yur mind.（有时,与那些不断提醒你缺少什么的人在一起,会激发你脑海中徘徊的负面想法。）"以及后文"And find new friends that help empwer yur psitive thughts instead f yur negative nes.（并结交新朋友,他们帮助你增强积极想法,而不是消极想法。）"可知,前后文是转折关系,所以此空应该填写表示与产生负面影响的人设定界限的句子。选项F"T break the scarcity mindset habit,set certain bundaries with thse peple.（为了打破稀缺心态的习惯,与这些人设定一定的界限。）"中的"set certain bundaries with thse peple"与前文的"the peple cnstantly reminding yu f what yu dn't have"相呼应,都表示这些负面影响的人,且应与这些人保持一定的距离。故选F。
