21、Humans are emotional beings, showing feelings in our behavior and facial expressions. But whether these mean the same thing in different cultures has been hotly debated. Now a new study has found that in different social contexts, such as weddings, funerals and sports, people indeed show universal facial expressions.

For the new study, Alan Cowen’s team used a machine learning model, Deep Neural Network (DNN), to systematically analyze facial expressions in thousands of different contexts. These contexts come from more than six million videos uploaded to You Tube between July 2009 and May 2018 by people in 144 countries.

Facial expressions were rated by English speakers in India by selecting applicable emotions from a list of 31 labels, resulting in a total of 16 distinct facial expressions. Meanwhile, contexts were classified in a separate experiment. The results showed that people from different cultures share about 70% of the facial expressions used in response to different social and emotional situations.

“This supports Darwin’s theory that expressing emotions in our faces is universal among humans,” the study co-lead author Dacher Keltner said. “The physical display of our emotions may define who we are as a species, enhancing our communication and cooperation skills and ensuring our survival.”

However, Lisa Barrett, from the Northeastern University College of Science notes that the English speakers in India were given the emotional word ratings rather than labeling the expressions themselves. They used emotion labels such as “anger”, “fear” and “sadness” instead of descriptive terms, thereby inferring the emotions behind the expressions.

She further comments that the raters (评定者) saw the faces in contexts which can’t necessarily be separated from the emotions themselves, and that the key point is that the raters are from just one country. “The ultimate value of Cowen and his colleagues’ study might lie not in the answers it provides,” she concludes, “but in the opportunity for further discovery that it opens up.”

【1】What can we learn from the text?

A．The study is opposite to Darwin’s theory.

B．People in different cultures show similar facial expressions.

C．The team conducted the study by downloading facial expressions.

D．Facial expressions and contexts were classified in the same experiment.

【2】How did Alan Cowen’s team conduct the study?

A．By using a learning machine.

B．By uploading videos to YouTube.

C．By analyzing facial expressions.

D．By using emotion labels.

【3】What can we infer from Dacher Keltner’s words?

A．Social success is dependent on facial expressions.

B．Facial expressions have constantly changed over time.

C．Social skills reflect the ability of one’s expression management.

D．Facial expressions play a vital role in humans’ development.

【4】What is Lisa Barrett’s attitude towards the study?

A．Objective.

B．Ambiguous.

C．Critical.

D．Contradictory.

22、Everything you know is in your brain. For what you don’t, you can ask the web. However, as you can imagine, in the past there were no computers and no web at all. Think about people living 3,500 years ago, in places where pyramids towered above them, instead of the modern buildings you can see around you. The lack of explanations about how things worked inspired the ancients to make discoveries and feed their curiosity.

But do not think they knew nothing: in fact, we still wonder how the Egyptians could build the pyramids using their own, rather rudimentary equipment. They wrote down their knowledge on books (called papyrus scrolls) so that later people could benefit from their skills.

Living safer and healthier was a top priority for the ancients: when they hurt their heads in battles, they used to heal their wounds using the cures, some of which were recorded on a papyrus now known as the Edwin Smith Papyrus. Interestingly, this is the oldest written evidence of the word “brain” we have on Earth, and it dates back to 3,500 years ago!

However, writing the word “brain” on a papyrus did not solve all the curiosities and questions about it. Around 2,500 years ago, for example, ancient Greeks wondered whether mind and soul lay in the brain or in the heart.

2,000 years ago, Roman physician Galen of Pergamon was sure he had solved the question: it was the brain, not the heart, that was the center of mental life. However, Galen had to convince the people around him that what he had discovered was true. It was not easy, mostly because people held their earlier beliefs. Every neuroscientist, just like Galen did, has to carefully observe reality, focus on something that is really interesting, think about how it can work, perform experiments, and discuss the data they get. This way, they can obtain convincing evidence to be shared with others.

【1】What encouraged the ancients to make discoveries?

A．The hope for keeping curiosity.

B．The need for writing books.

C．The search for explanations.

D．The wish to work faster.

【2】Which word can best replace “rudimentary” underlined in paragraph 2?

A．Complicated.

B．Primitive.

C．Electrical.

D．Protective.

【3】What can be learned about the Edwin Smith Papyrus?

A．It was probably a medical text.

B．It was finished 2,500 years ago.

C．It was considered useless at first.

D．It was written by Galen of Pergamon.

【4】How did Galen convince people of his discovery?

A．By finding evidence from papyrus scrolls.

B．By asking many scientists to support him.

C．By following strict scientific methods.

D．By teaching people to do experiments.

23、New research concludes people may struggle to differentiate between medical advice given by chatbots (聊天机器人) and human health care providers. Findings indicate chatbots, like ChatGPT, could be valuable tools in assisting healthcare providers in communicating with patients.

ChatGPT is trained to predict the most probable next word in a conversation using vast amounts of Internet data. It responds to user enquiries, learning from human feedback. However, it’s not without limitations. ChatGPT, like other large language models（LLMs）, can sometimes produce biased information and lacks the ability to perform true reasoning.

The research had 392 participants aged 18 and above who were presented with ten patient questions. Half of the responses to these questions were given by humans, while the other half came from ChatGPT. Participants then had to identify the origin of each response and rate their trust in the chatbot’s answers from “completely untrustworthy” to “completely trustworthy”. Participants could only correctly identify chatbot-given responses 65.5% of the time. Participants displayed the most trust in chatbots when handling the matters, such as scheduling appointments or addressing insurance enquiries, with an average trust score of 3.94. Preventative care questions, like cancer screenings, came next at 3.52. However, trust decreased for diagnostic (诊断) and treatment advice, registering scores of 2.90 and 2.89 respectively.

The study’s results indicate the potential chatbots possess in aiding patient-provider communications, especially in areas like administrative tasks. But scientists have something to say regarding chatbots assuming more clinical roles. “Providers should exercise picky judgment when it comes to chatbot-given advice due to the limitations of AI models,” researchers said in a statement.

The use of AI into healthcare is no longer a distant possibility but a rapidly evolving reality. This study offers a glimpse (瞥见) into the ways we can expect to see AI platforms team with medical clinics. It also shows us improvements that are needed so that new technologies become effective aids and tools for both doctors and patients. These include the following.

【1】Which is closest in meaning to “biased” in paragraph 2?

A．Inaccurate.

B．Indirect.

C．Unnecessary.

D．Unusual.

【2】What affected the participants’ level of trust in chatbot responses?

A．Their answers to chatbots’ questions.

B．Their then physical conditions.

C．The origin of each response.

D．The nature of the enquiry.

【3】What’s the scientists’ attitude to chatbots taking on clinical medical tasks?

A．Disapproving.

B．Unclear.

C．Conservative.

D．Positive.

【4】What might the author continue talking about regarding the study?

A．Possible reasons for its findings.

B．Its major limitations in reality.

C．Its influences on healthcare.

D．Explanations of its methods.

24、The value-packed, all-inclusive sight-seeing package that combines the best of Sydney’s harbor, city, bay and beach highlights.

25、City walk gains popularity among young Chinese. Different from the fast-paced “special forces style” (特种部队式) tourism, city walk is _________ and not very purposeful.
