A
I had been cnsidering giving up. Fr the past eight years, I’ve met with prspective first-year students as a vlunteer interviewer fr my alma mater (母校). The reprts I submit after the interviews becme part f their admissins file. But acceptance rate f my university is lw and each time I see the wrd “Denied” next t ne f my interviewees’ names at the end f an admissins cycle, I feel a little mre heartbrken.
Dn’t get me wrng. I’ve gtten t knw lads f inspiring kids, and a handful f them were ffered a spt. After a cycle in which nne f my interviewees was green-lighted, thugh, I started t wnder: In expressing my enthusiasm fr my university in interviews, was I ding them a favr r setting them up fr disappintment? Was it fair f me t share an inside lk int my university when mst wn’t have access t it?
Then, ut f the blue, I received a text frm ne f “my” admits, Layla. She thanked me fr getting her int my university. I was tuched, but I mentally dismissed the validity (合理性) f what seemed t be a misguided assumptin f hw the admissins prcess wrks.
We met fr cffee a few mnths later, and she delighted me with a detailed discussin f her classes, her prfessrs, her research, and her friends. Her eyes were bright, her excitement visible. She tld me she had submitted a request t spend 20 minutes with her admissins file. I culdn’t understand why she wanted t take the time t lk. Culdn’t she just enjy her time as an admitted student withut being distracted by disturbing questins f whether she belnged?
As it turns ut, Layla learned that the admissins fficer wh first read her file was n the fence abut her but then decided t put her applicatin thrugh fr anther read because f what I’d written in my interview reprt. My vice had made a difference.
Layla fund the relief she’d been lking fr: Why was she here? Did she really matter t this incredible cmmunity? Seeing her put her wrries t rest helped me d the same with my wn. Maybe smetimes we all need t hear that we matter.
32. What made the authr cnsider giving up the vlunteer wrk?
A. Getting tired f writing interview reprts.
B. Failing t help sme f the prmising kids.
C. Disappintment with interviewees’ abilities.
D. Inability t stimulate interviewees’ enthusiasm.
33. Initially, the authr viewed Layla’s thank-yu text as ________.
A. a reliefB. a distractinC. a rewardD. a misunderstanding
34. Why did Layla request t review her admissins file?
A. T ease her wrries abut future.
B. T clarify the authr’s cnfusin.
C. T cnfirm she deserved the admissin.
D. T prve the authr’s reprt played a rle.
35. What can we learn frm this passage?
A. Each sul needs a witness.B. Every clud has a silver lining.
C. What ges arund cmes arund.D. What matters always vices itself.

Evan Selinger, prfessr in RIT’s Department f Philsphy, has taken an interest in the ethics (伦理标准) f AI and the plicy gaps that need t be filled in.
Thrugh a humanities viewpint, Selinger asks the questins, “Hw can AI cause harm, and what can gvernments and cmpanies creating AI prgrams d t address and manage it?” Answering them, he explained, requires an interdisciplinary apprach.
“AI ethics g beynd technical fixes. Philsphers and ther humanities experts are uniquely skilled t address the nuanced (微妙的) principles, value cnflicts, and pwer dynamics. These skills aren’t just crucial fr addressing current issues. We desperately need them t prmte anticipatry (先行的) gvernance,” said Selinger.
One example that illustrates hw philsphy and humanities experts can help guide these new, rapidly grwing technlgies is Selinger’s wrk cllabrating with a special AI prject. “One f the skills I bring t the table is identifying cre ethical issues in emerging technlgies that haven’t been built r used by the public. We can take preventative steps t limit risk, including changing hw the technlgy is designed.” said Selinger.
Taking these preventative steps and regularly reassessing what risks need addressing is part f the nging jurney in pursuit f creating respnsible AI. Selinger explains that there isn’t a step-by-step apprach fr gd gvernance. “AI ethics have cre values and principles, but there’s endless disagreement abut interpreting and applying them and creating meaningful accuntability mechanisms,” said Selinger. “Sme peple are rightly wrried that AI can becme integrated int ‘ethics washing’ — weak checklists, flwery missin statements, and empty rhetric that cvers ver abuses f pwer. Frtunately, I’ve had great cnversatins abut this issue, including with sme experts, n why it is imprtant t cnsider a range f psitins.”
Sme f Selinger’s recent research has fcused n the back-end issues with develping AI, such as the human impact that cmes with testing AI chatbts befre they’re released t the public. Other issues fcus n plicy, such as what t d abut the dangers psed by facial recgnitin and ther autmated surveillance (监视) appraches.
Selinger is making sure his students are infrmed abut the nging industry cnversatins n AI ethics and respnsible AI. “Students are ging t be future tech leaders. Nw is the time t help them think abut what gals their cmpanies shuld have and the csts f minimizing ethical cncerns. Beynd scial csts, dwnplaying ethics can negatively impact crprate culture and hiring,” said Selinger. “T attract tp talent, yu need t cnsider whether yur cmpany matches their interests and hpes fr the future.”
36. Selinger advcates an interdisciplinary apprach because .
A. it can avid scial cnflicts and pressing issues
B. AI ethics heavily depends n technlgical slutins
C. it demnstrates the pwer f anticipatry gvernance
D. humanities experts pssess skills essential fr AI ethics
37. T prmte respnsible AI, Selinger believes we shuld .
A. adpt a systematic apprach
B. apply innvative technlgies
C. anticipate ethical risks befrehand
D. establish accuntability mechanisms
38. What can be inferred frm the last tw paragraphs?
A. Mre cmpanies will use AI t attract tp talent.
B. Understanding AI ethics will help students in the future.
C. Selinger favrs cmpanies that match his students’ values.
D. Selinger is likely t fcus n back-end issues such as plicy.

Arguably, the biggest science develpment f the year t date has been the images f the very depths f the universe taken by the James Webb Space Telescpe (JWST). Thse images beg a cmparisn between the external and internal universes that science is bent n bserving and understanding.
Decades ag, astrphysicist Carl Sagan famusly said, “The universe is als within. We’re made f star-stuff. We are a way fr the universe t knw itself. ” He was cmmenting then n the reality that ur internal universe was as cmplex and as fantastic as the uter space.
There are many similarities between the prgress we’ve made in understanding the universe and in piecing tgether life’s inner wrkings. Like the technlgical develpments that tk us frm Galile’s telescpe t the Hubble t the JWST, life science tls have als imprved rapidly. Frm early light micrscpes t mdern super-reslutin nes, these develpments have affrded researchers a deep lk int bilgy’s infinitesimal (无限小的) landscape. Learning that living things were cmpsed f cells was, nt a terribly lng time ag, a revlutinary bservatin. Since then, scientists have been able t dive ever deeper int the cmpnents f life.
Ging beynd merely bserving the cmplicated makeup f rganisms, life scientists can nw discver the wrkings f mlecules (分子). And that is where scanning the universe differs frm peering int bilgy. Understanding the universe, especially frm a functinal standpint, is nt necessarily an immediate urgency. Understanding bilgy n that level is. Simply bserving the amazing internal structure f cells is nt enugh. Bilgists must als characterize hw all thse parts interact and change in different envirnments and when faced with varius challenges. Being able t image a virus r bacterium is nice at the level f basic science. But knwing hw viruses gain entry int cells and spread, infect, and disable can literally save lives. Thrugh time, bilgy has risen t this mechanistic challenge. Nt nly can life science tls prduce images f cell cmpnents, even mre imprtantly, they can help predict the effects f drugs n receptrs, f immune cells n freign invaders (入侵者), and f genetic perturbatins (基因干扰) n develpment and aging.
This is nt t belittle the wrk f scientists researching int universe. They shuld rightly be praised fr delivering views f impssibly distant, impssibly massive phenmena. My aim is t celebrate these accmplishments while at the same time recgnizing that science’s inward search fr detail and insight is equally impressive and, in my view, mre urgent. The utput f bth the utward and inward explratins shuld stimulate wnder in everyne. After all, it’s all star-stuff.
39. Why des the authr qute Carl Sagan’s cmment in Paragraph 2?
A. T intrduce the backgrund.B. T prve an assumptin.
C. T make a cmparisn.D. T present an idea.
40. Like the study f the universe, life science has been advancing in ________.
A. study apprachesB. system management
C. research facilitiesD. technlgy integratin
41. We can infer frm Paragraph 4 that bilgists’ wrk is ________.
A. practicalB. riskyC. flexibleD. ppular
42. As fr life science, which wuld the authr agree with?
A. It has received universal recgnitin.B. It shuld enjy pririty in develpment.
C. It can be applied in the majrity f areas.D. It is mre cmplicated than space science.

阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题卡指定区域作答。
My dad is a crsswrd-lver. When I was a little girl, Dad wuld read his crsswrd puzzles t me frm a magazine. I can still remember hw he turned his pencil excitedly as he discvered a new phrase. If my attentin weakened, he wuld say, “Feeling sleepy? Never mind, I’ll keep reading. Sme f the wrds may crawl int yur mind.” Bit by bit, Dad intrduced me t the pwer f wrds and guided my life’s calling, a purpse I never questined r bthered t pursue.
Years passing, I grew int a prfessinal writer. I fund that he never asked me t suggest a wrd r help him with a puzzle when I was wrking. Fr him, my wrds were precius; each held value. But it did nt matter much t me hw much I gt paid fr writing. I wrte because I lved wrd-craft and making up stries that brught ideas t life.
Recently when an editr surprised me with a lwer rate f pay fr a piece f essay that they chse t publish nline rather than in print, I was kind f hurt! But I cmfrted myself by lking at the bright side — s many peple read the piece and shared jyful emtins and praise n scial media. Althugh sme wrldly-wise friends tld me that I was paid peanuts, I myself felt well rewarded.
While I was cntent, a certain anxiety wuld secretly emerge: wuld the thught f earnings cheapen the dignity f my wrk? Dad’s slutin was: “Why nt bth? Mney isn’t everything, but isn’t it gd t have enugh t help yurself and thse clse t yu? And fr yur talents and effrts t be valued?” Dad believed nt nly that mre wealth did nt mean greater happiness, but als that n effrt shuld be undervalued.
Tday, when dubts clud my mind, I think f Dad’s pencil: its purpse may be t slve a crsswrd puzzle, but it was als there fr anyne writing dwn a life-changing number in a lttery ticket. S culdn’t my wrds help cmplete my life purpse and earn a better living t? Nw I take up assignments — sme that pay well, sme that dn’t — and they bth fill me with jy.
