【原文】We all knw that AI technlgy can write emails, paint pictures, and prvide persnalized advice. But nw, accrding t a grup f American researchers, it can even read minds! Well... almst. Scientists at the University f Texas have created an AI-based system that can turn a persn’s brain activity int text. This has previusly nly been pssible thrugh the use f surgical implants (植入物). The breakthrugh is cntributed by the large language mdels used by AI “chatbts” such as ChatGPT and their understanding f natural speech. Using these, scientists have been able t match brain activity t whle sentences and their meanings. Three vlunteers spent 16 hurs listening t stries while their brain activity was recrded. They then watched fur silent films while the machine attempted t describe what they were seeing. The translatins weren’t perfect. They tended t describe general ideas, rather than prviding an accurate wrd-fr-wrd match fr each thught. Hwever, it’s hped that this technlgy culd smeday help thusands f patients wh are unable t cmmunicate. Prfessr Shinji Nishimt f Osaka University called the research “a significant advance”, while Oxfrd University’ s Prfessr Tim Behrens said it pens up many experimental pssibilities.

When Hurricane Duglas came barreling tward Oahu in 2020, David Sisch quickly packed up and drve t higher grund. But he wasn’t shifting his family. He was shifting snails.
Sisch wrks with sme f the rarest endangered species n the planet, kāhuli — Hawaii’s native tree snails. The clrful, jewel-like snails were nce s abundant. It’s said they were like Christmas rnaments cvering the trees. Almst all f the 750 different species were fund nly in Hawaii. Tday, mre than half f thse species are gne, the extinctins happening in the span f a human lifetime. Sisch and his team with Hawaii’ s Department f Land and Natural Resurces have the heavy task f saving what’s left.
T stave ff extinctin, 40 species f snails, each abut the size f a dime, live in human care inside an unremarkable trailer near Hnlulu. Fr sme, it’s the nly place where they’ re fund, their wild ppulatins having cmpletely disappeared. “Mst peple, when they think endangered species ging extinct, they think f pandas and tigers and elephants, but imagine having 40 different species that are all as rare as pandas are,” Sisch says.
This winter, ne species f snail will inch tward an auspicius milestne. It will be released in a special enclsure in the muntains f Oahu, ne that has been painstakingly prepared t give the snails the best chance f survival in their natural envirnment.
Still, the utlk fr Hawaii’s snails is uncertain, symblizing a new era in the cnservatin f endangered species. Arund the wrld, plants and animals are being brught int enclsure as a last-ditch effrt against extinctin. But as the climate heats up and invasive species cntinue t spread, many have n clear path t return t nature in the near term. That culd mean they stay in human care. In the face f the bidiversity crisis, many wildlife bilgists say there’s n ther chice. “These are bilgical treasures that are irreplaceable,” Sisch says. “It is nw r never. What we manage t keep n Earth will be what the next generatin is able t put back.”
24. What was David’s primary cncern when Hurricane Duglas apprached?
A. The safety f his family. B. The prtectin f rare tree snails.

【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Tday, mre than half f thse species are gne, the extinctins happening in the span f a human lifetime.(今天，这些物种中有一半以上已经消失，灭绝发生在人类一生的时间里)”可知，kāhuli濒临灭绝。故选C。
【26题详解】

推理判断题。根据最后一段“Still, the utlk fr Hawaii’s snails is uncertain, symblizing a new era in the cnservatin f endangered species. Arund the wrld, plants and animals are being brught int enclsure as a last-ditch effrt against extinctin. But as the climate heats up and invasive species cntinue t spread, many have n clear path t return t nature in the near term. That culd mean they stay in human care. In the face f the bidiversity crisis, many wildlife bilgists say there’s n ther chice.(尽管如此，夏威夷蜗牛的前景仍不确定，这标志着濒危物种保护进入了一个新时代。在世界各地，植物和动物都被圈养起来，作为防止灭绝的最后一招。但随着气候变暖，入侵物种继续蔓延，许多物种在短期内没有明确的回归自然的途径。这可能意味着他们将留在人类护理中心。面对生物多样性危机，许多野生动物生物学家表示别无选择)”可知，最后一段说明了气候变暖让许多物种在短期内没有明确的回归自然的途径，对此生物学家也没有应对办法。由此推知，保护濒危物种具有挑战性。故选D。
C
Has smene ever tld yu smething that made yu dubt yur wn memry r judgment? If s, yu may be a victim f gaslighting: “Gaslighting” is a kind f psychlgical abuse t gain pwer ver thers by purpsely making ther peple think they’re wrng even when they’re right. The term cmes frm Patrick Hamiltn’s play in 1938. Lead character Jack Manningham seeks t cnvince his wife Bella that she is ging crazy, by saying she is imagining the dimming f the gas light in their hme, when it was actually he wh lwered the brightness f the light.
Gaslighting is initially used t talk abut what happens in rmantic relatinships. Hwever, many individuals als experience gaslighting at wrk. In fact, a recent survey has fund that 58% f the respndents said they have experienced gaslighting at wrk. It’s unsurprising since gaslighting usually invlves a pwer relatinship and a need t cntrl thers. In the wrkplace, the dynamics between a bss and his emplyee can be the perfect breeding grund fr this type f behavir. Yu bss may tell yu t handle an assignment in a certain way, but when yu d, he gets annyed and says it isn’t what he wants. It makes yu feel like yur memry is faulty.
In rder t find ut whether yur bss’s behavir really cnstitutes gaslighting r he is just a pr cmmunicatr, yu culd write dwn yur experiences and ask yurself what really has happened, what his mtives might be, and hw yur emtin is affected. But always be careful because gaslighters knw hw t fly under the radar. They are skilled at weakening an emplyee’s cnfidence and sense f reality in a clever and hard-t-prve way.
T prtect yurself, at the end f the cnversatin with yur bss, repeat back what yu have heard and fllw up with an e-mail restating the main pints, dcumenting the interactins between yu tw. But dn’t get yur hpes high that this will autmatically slve the prblem, Rbin Stern, authr f The Gaslight Effect, warns, because it’s hard t get a gaslighter t change his behavir pattern. If things dn’t imprve, yu may want t cnsider getting ut f the gaslighting situatin by lking fr a new psitin.
28. Why des the authr mentin Patrick Hamlitn’s play in paragraph 1?
A. T intrduce a famus play in histry. B. T shw the rigin f the term “gaslighting”.
C. T describe hw peple g crazy in daily life.D. T explain the relatinship between cuples.
29. Why is gaslighting cmmn in the wrkplace accrding t the text?
A. Because emplyees are t sensitive.B. Because bsses are pr cmmunicatrs.
C. Because emplyers want t dminate.D. Because wrk assignments are t difficult.
30. What is suggested fr emplyees t determine if their bss is gaslighting them?
A. E-mailing their bss t ask fr dcuments.B. Having an argument with the bss.
C. Recrding and analyzing their experiences.D. Making a cmplaint t the superirs.
31. What is the authr’s purpse in writing this passage?
A. T intrduce gaslighting’s rigin and its slutins.
B. T highlight gaslighting’s harm and its reasns.
C. T discuss a survey n gaslighting and its effects.
D. T explain gaslighting’s definitin and its types.

【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。“煤气灯效应”是一种通过操控他人心理以获权的手段，源于戏剧，如今职场常见，文中教员工记录分析经历判断老板是否如此，还给出保护自身、摆脱困境的办法。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段第三句“The term cmes frm Patrick Hamiltn’s play in 1938. (这个术语来自帕特里克・汉密尔顿 1938 年的戏剧)”可推知，这里提到帕特里克・汉密尔顿的戏剧是为了说明gaslighting这个术语的起源，原文中明确表明该术语源自此戏剧。故选B项。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段第三句“It’s unsurprising since gaslighting usually invlves a pwer relatinship and a need t cntrl thers. (这并不奇怪，因为煤气灯效应通常涉及权力关系和控制他人的需求)”可知，煤气灯效应在工作场所常见是因为雇主想要掌控局面，文中提到煤气灯效应涉及控制他人需求，工作中老板与员工权力关系易滋生此行为。故选C项。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段第一句“In rder t find ut whether yur bss’s behavir really cnstitutes gaslighting r he is just a pr cmmunicatr, yu culd write dwn yur experiences and ask yurself what really has happened, what his mtives might be, and hw yur emtin is affected. (为了弄清楚你老板的行为是否真的构成煤气灯效应，还是他只是一个沟通能力差的人，你可以写下你的经历，问问自己到底发生了什么，他的动机可能是什么，以及你的情绪是如何受到影响的)”可知，建议员工记录并分析他们的经历来判断老板是否在对他们实施煤气灯效应，原文明确指出通过写下经历并自我询问来判断。故选C项。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章第一段解释了gaslighting的定义并介绍其起源，最后两段提出了应对煤气灯效应的方法，如记录对话内容、考虑换工作等。如第一段提及术语来源，最后两段讲述应对措施。由此推知，作者写这篇文章的目的是介绍煤气灯效应的起源及其解决办法。故选A项。

Be mre prductive. That is hw ChatGPT, a generative-artificial-intelligence tl frm OpenAI, sells itself t wrkers. But despite industry hpes that the technlgy will bst prductivity acrss the wrkfrce, nt everyne is n bard. Accrding t tw recent studies, wmen use ChatGPT between 16 and 20 percentage pints less than their male peers, even when they are emplyed in the same jbs r read the same subject.
The first study, published as a wrking paper in June, explred ChatGPT at wrk. Anders Humlum f the University f Chicag and Emilie Vestergard f the University f Cpenhagen surveyed 100,000 Danes acrss 11 prfessins in which the technlgy culd save wrkers time, including jurnalism, sftware-develping and teaching. The researchers asked respndents hw ften they turned t ChatGPT and what might keep them frm adpting it.
Acrss all prfessins, wmen were less likely t use ChatGPT than men wh wrked in the same industry. Fr example, nly a third f female teachers used it fr wrk, cmpared with half f male teachers. Amng sftware develpers, almst tw-thirds f men used it while less than half f wmen did. The gap shrank nly slightly, t 16 percentage pints, when peple in the same firms wrking n similar tasks were cmpared. As such, the study cncludes that a lack f female cnfidence may be in part t blame: wmen wh did nt use AI were mre likely than men t highlight that they needed training t use the technlgy.
Anther ptential explanatin fr the gender imbalance cmes frm a survey f 486 students at the Nrwegian Schl f Ecnmics (NHH). It als fund a gender gap: female students enrlled in the NHH’s nly undergraduate prgramme were 18 percentage pints less likely t use ChatGPT ften. When the researchers separated students by admissin grades, it became clear that the gap reflected the behaviur f mid-and high-perfrming wmen. Lw perfrmers were almst as likely as men t use the technlgy.
Why might this be? The researchers prbed what was ging n with sme clever fllw-up questins. They asked students whether they wuld use ChatGPT if their prfessr frbade it, and received a similar distributin f answers. Hwever, with clear apprval, everyne, including the better-perfrming wmen, reprted that they wuld make use f the technlgy. In ther wrds, the high-achieving wmen appeared t put a ban n themselves. “It’s the ‘gd girl’ thing.” reckns Ms Isakssn. “It’s this idea that ‘I have t g thrugh this pain, I have t d it n my wn and I shuldn’t cheat and take shrt-cuts’.”
32. What d we knw abut ChatGPT gender usage gap accrding t the first study?
A. It is nly fund in a few specific prfessins.
B. It is caused by wmen’s less access t high-tech.
C. It-is partly due t wmen’s lack f cnfidence.
D. It disappears n similar tasks in the same firm.
33. What des Paragraph 4 mainly talk abut?
A. NHH students’ ChatGPT use in different cases.
B. Cmparisn f ChatGPT use amng NHH students.
C. Prfessrs’ impact n NHH students’ ChatGPT use.
D. Reasns fr tp NHH female students’ self-restrictin.
34. What is the reasn fr high-achieving wmen’s behavir accrding t Ms Isakssn?

(这种二维结构旨在帮助你记住信息，因为它的格式很容易被你的大脑记住。全球有超过2.5亿人在使用它们，所以为什么不试试，看看它们到底是什么呢？)”可知，下文介绍了一种帮助记忆信息的二维结构。而G项“Enter mind mapping, a technique that shws hw different ideas and facts relate t ne anther. (来了解思维导图，这是一种展示不同想法和事实如何相互关联的技术。)”引出了思维导图这一概念，正是下文所描述的内容，起到了承上启下的作用。故选G项。

My day started just like all the ther days fr the past 15 years where I get up, make sme cffee, shwer, get dressed, and leave fr the train statin at precisely 7:35 A.M. t arrive at wrk by 8:30．While n the train, I wuld always chse a seat away frm the crwd s I culd read the newspaper in peace and quiet.
At wrk, I am always burdened with questins frm c-wrkers, suppliers, telephne calls, and then thse dreaded meetings, s the last thing I need is sme stranger t sit beside me and start small talk.
I dn’t knw why, but fr sme reasn, when I gt n the train tday, it was unusually full. With hesitatin, I sat dwn in the nly seat available beside a middle-aged man wh had his head dwn and seemed t be lst in his thughts. I was glad that he didn’t ntice when I sat next t him as he just cntinued t lk dwn twards the flr.
Shrtly after the train left fr my 30-minute ride dwntwn, I fund myself wndering what this man was thinking abut. What culd be s imprtant that he didn’t even see me sitting next t him? I tried t frget abut it and started t read my paper. Hwever, fr sme strange reasn, this “inner vice” kept prmpting me t talk t this man. I tried t ignre the “vice” as there was n way I was starting a cnversatin with a cmplete stranger.
As yu prbably guessed, I eventually brke dwn and came up with an excuse t ask him a questin. When he raised his head and turned his eyes tward me, I culd see that he must have been really upset as he had red eyes and still had sme tears rlling dwn the side f his face, despite his feeble attempt t wipe them away. I can’t describe the sadness I felt seeing smene in s much pain.
We talked fr abut 20 minutes, and in the end, he seemed t be ding better. As we were leaving the train, he thanked me heartily fr being an “angel” by taking the time t talk. I never did find ut what was making his heart s heavy with pain, but I was glad I listened t the “vice” that day.

Paragraph 1: Several weeks later, I fund an envelpe n my desk with the wrd “Angel” written n it.

Paragraph 2: Deeply tuched yet still shaken, I sat there hlding the letter, feeling lucky that I fllwed my inner vice.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
Several weeks later, I fund an envelpe n my desk with nly the wrd “Angel” written n it. Curius and slightly puzzled, I pened it and fund a heartfelt letter frm the man I had met n the train that day. In his letter, he thanked me fr taking the time t talk t him when he was at his lwest. He shared that he had been facing verwhelming persnal struggles and had even cnsidered ending his life that very day. My simple act f reaching ut, he wrte, had reminded him that there were still peple wh cared, and it gave him the strength t keep ging. The letter clsed with wrds that tuched me deeply: “Yu were the angel I needed. Gd heard my prayer and sent yu at just the right time.”
Deeply tuched yet still shaken, I sat there hlding the letter, feeling lucky that I fllwed my inner vice. I had almst ignred that “inner vice” urging me t speak t him, but nw I understd why I hadn’t. It was a small act, but it was indeed a calling f my inner kindness, which had made a significant difference in his life. Frm that day n, I prmised myself t always listen t that quiet vice within, especially when it nudged me t shw kindness r reach ut t smene in need even there was n apparent reasn. Smetimes, a few minutes f ur time can mean the wrld t smene else, and perhaps, in ur wn small way, we can all be smene’s “angel.”
