Standing ut in a crwded place is a difficult challenge. Yu pssess talent, intelligence, and knwledge, yet the right audience aren’t nticing. Yu are a high-quality individual, but it is insufficient t distinguish yu. Cnsider the launch f a new brand f scissrs: advertising them as the “sharpest scissrs” is pintless, as every cmpetitr claims the same. Quality has becme a baseline expectatin, easily achieved by all.
Several years ag, I fund myself lcked ut f my ffice. I fund a number f lcksmiths n Yelp and asked them fr prices. Fur replied immediately. The first simply wrte: “Price estimate: $29. I give yu the best price.” The secnd stated: “$125 t pen the dr.” The third just replied: “Yes, we can help yu.” The furth respnse came frm a guy named Jay Sfer, wner f Lckbusters, wh wrte: “Hi, Jasn, thank yu fr the detail. Wuld it be pssible t send me a quick image f that handle t make certain I give yu an accurate price? Here is my direct email address.”
Despite Jay’s estimate f $300, I chse his services. Why? Because he shwed trustwrthiness. And that was n accident. Trust is the crnerstne f Jay’s business mdel. His enterprise bmed because peple recmmend him and always leave great reviews n Yelp.
T me, accessibility can be a cmpetitive advantage in increasing my sales. Being friendly, easy, nice and trustwrthy is the basics in my eyes. Hwever, thers may find it ludicrus and ften ignre these qualities.
S, what’s yur true cmpetitive advantage? Spend sme time n this questin. Trust is an excellent starting pint. But maybe it’s als yur clear and cnvincing viewpint. Yur friendliness. Genersity. Respnse time. Reliability.
If yu find yurself at a lss, embark n a jurney f experimentatin. Extend yurself t assist thers. Share yur ideas in unique ways. Then lk fr the mments when smene says: Oh, ww. Fr in thse instances, yu have achieved smething extrardinary, smething that thers wuld nt.

A. T stress quality alne can’t ensure uniqueness.
B. T advertise the best scissrs t custmers.
C. T prve custmers are hard t satisfy.
D. T demnstrate intense cmpetitin.
5. What can we learn frm Jay’s stry?
A. Success depends n psitive reviews.B. Trust tps price in business.

Peple wh struggle t speak because f a strke r Parkinsn’s disease culd cmmunicate mre easily with the help f artificial intelligence. A new mdel cnstructs what a persn is trying t say based n tiny vibratins (振动) in their thrat, but als takes int accunt ther factrs, such as timing and the emtins they may be experiencing.
Sme neurlgical cnditins can result in dysarthria a cnditin where peple lse fine cntrl ver their vice bx, jaw r tngue. Cnventinal slutins using brain-cmputer interfaces (接口) have brught prmising results, but users needed surgical peratins t place electrdes n r in their brains, causing unbearable pains.
Nw, a grup f researchers has used sensrs t measure the mvement f thrat muscles via vibratins, as well as the pulse in the cartid arteries (颈动脉), t determine a user’s emtinal state. That data is then fed int tw large language mdels, each based n GPT-4-mini. The first, knwn as the tken synthesis agent (TSA), aims t extract the intended wrds muthed by the user and grup them int sentences. The secnd, the sentence expansin agent (SEA), takes sentences frm the TSA and uses cntextual infrmatin, as well as the user’s emtinal data, t expand the sentences int what the researchers describe as “lgically cnsistent persnalized expressins that better capture the patient’s true intentin”, cmpared with thse created withut cntextual and emtinal clues.
When the researchers tested the system n five peple with dysarthria, their system achieved sentence errr rates as lw as 2.9%. They als fund that using emtinal and cntextual clues t add t sentences increased users’ satisfactin ver straightfrward recnstructin f sentences by 55%.
Russell Beale at the University f Birmingham, UK, says the technlgy enables users nt t have t think abut ding anything differently. “They just d what they did befre, and that’s what gd scial interactin shuld be like.” But he adds that interpretatin (解读) f intended cmmunicatin cmes with risks. “It culd be a bit discuraging fr peple if that language mdel is saying things in a way that they wuldn’t,” he says.
8. What des the text say abut the cnventinal treatments?
A. They bring great suffering t patients.B. They need t mnitr patients’ brains cnstantly.
C. They make use f cmputer mdels.D. They have all gt the expected effects.
9. Hw des the SEA wrk n the sentence prductin?
A. By cllecting and rganizing speakers’ wrds.
B. By lengthening sentences with persnal expressins.
C. By cmbining the cntext and feelings with cntents.
D. By keeping track f the speakers’ true emtinal state.
10. What can be inferred frm paragraph 4?
A. The system satisfied researchers emtinally.B. The system shuld be applied widely.
C. The system achieved higher accuracy.D. The system shuld have perfrmed better.
11. What is Russell Beale’s attitude twards the mdel?
A. Uncaring.B. Negative.C. Unclear.D. Impersnal.

At its cre, art criticism is a rich and enlightening cnversatin abut visual art. It invlves a thughtful evaluatin and discussin f the artwrk’s elements, principles, meaning, and impact. It’s nt just abut saying if yu like r dislike an artwrk. Instead, it requires yu t engage deeply with the wrk.
Diving straight int the first step, yu’re tasked with capturing the artwrk’s essence thrugh yur perspective. This means describing the piece s that anyne wh hasn’t seen it can visualize it. Begin with the basics — the wrk’s title, artist’s name, medium used, and year created. Then, prvide a detailed descriptin f the artwrk — clrs used, shapes sptted, subjects described, and any nticeable techniques applied.
After yu’ve painted a vivid picture, it’s time t dig deeper int the piece with analysis. This part asks yu t separate the artwrk int its elemental parts — line, clr, rhythm, harmny, and variety. Lk clsely at hw the artist has used these elements and ask yurself what impact they have n the verall wrk. D unique lines direct yur gaze in a particular way? Is there an exciting interactin between different shapes?
Next, yu’re tasked with interpreting the artwrk in questin. Cnsider what the artist might be trying t cmmunicate thrugh their wrk. What emtins r themes d yu ntice? Hw des the artwrk relate t yur wn experiences r wrldview? It’s als crucial t remember there isn’t always an abslutely “right” interpretatin since art is subjective and viewers may draw different cnclusins.
S, yu’ve made it t the grand end f yur jurney — evaluatin. Nw’s the time t judge it and dish ut sme cld, hard truths abut the piece. Is it a masterpiece that culd bring tears t a stne sculpture? This is where yu’re allwed t express freely — if yu think the painting lks like a catastrphic clr cllisin (碰撞), say s! But remember: n making pintless cmment here!
12. What is the rle f an art critic?
A. A ptential purchaser.B. A challenger t art theries.
C. A reflective cmmunicatr.D. A witness t art creatin.
13. What is the significance f describing an artwrk?
A. Fueling viewers’ curisity and passin.B. Adding extra details and explanatins.
C. Making it attractive and cmprehensible.D. Serving as eyes fr absent viewers.
14. What des the authr agree with abut the interpretatin f an artwrk?
A. It reveals the pssible thughts behind the artwrk.
B. It indicates the elemental parts f the artwrk.
C. It is based n the right analysis f the artwrk.
D. It plays a part in shaping the viewers’ wrldviews.
15. What shuld be balanced in the evaluatin prcess?
A. Uninteresting truths and specific fcus.B. Slid reasning and persnal pinins.
C. Prper criticism and necessary praise.D. Hnest remarks and strng defence.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. A 15. B
