To a chef, the sounds of lip smacking, slurping and swallowing are the highest form of flattery (恭维). But to someone with a certain type of misophonia (恐音症), these same sounds can be torturous. Brain scans are now helping scientists start to understand why.
People with misophonia experience strong discomfort, annoyance or disgust when they hear particular triggers. These can include chewing, swallowing, slurping, throat clearing, coughing and even audible breathing. Researchers previously thought this reaction might be caused by the brain overactively processing certain sounds. Now, however, a new study published in Journal of Neuroscience has linked some forms of misophonia to heightened “mirroring” behavior in the brain: those affected feel distress while their brains act as if they were imitating the triggering mouth movements.
“This is the first breakthrough in misophonia research in 25 years,” says psychologist Jennifer J. Brout, who directs the International Misophonia Research Network and was not involved in the new study.
The research team, led by Neweastle University neuroscientist Sukhbinder Kumar, analyzed brain activity in people with and without misophonia when they were at rest and while they listened to sounds. These included misophonia triggers (such as chewing), generally unpleasant sounds (like a crying baby), and neutral sounds. The brain’s auditory (听觉的) cortex, which processes sound, reacted similarly in subjects with and without misophonia. But in both the resting state and listening trials, people with misophonia showed stronger connections between the auditory cortex and brain regions that control movements of the face, mouth and throat, while the controlled group didn’t. Kumar found this connection became most active in participants with misophonia when they heard triggers specific to the condition.
“Just by listening to the sound, they activate the motor cortex more strongly. So in a way it was as if they were doing the action themselves,” Kumar says. Some mirroring is typical in most humans when witnessing others’ actions; the researchers do not yet know why an excessive(过分的) mirroring response might cause such a negative reaction, and hope to address that in future research. “Possibilities include a sense of loss of control, invasion of personal space, or interference with current goals and actions,” the study authors write.
Fatima Husain, an Illinois University professor of speech and hearing science, who was not involved in the study, says potential misophonia therapies could build on the new findings by counseling patients about handling unconscious motor responses to triggering sounds—not just coping with the sounds themselves. If this works, she adds, one should expect to see reduced connected activity between the auditory and motor cortices.
24.It can be learnt from the new study that ______.
A.misophonia sufferers can’t help imitating the triggers
B.people with misophonia are more likely to flatter chefs
C.the brains of people with misophonia overreact to sounds strongly
D.misophonia sufferers tend to have similar annoying activities in their brains
25.Compared with people without misophonia, people with misophonia ______.
A.suffer less severely at the resting state B.own markedly different brain structures
C.react more negatively at a mirroring response D.lose control of their facial movements easily
26.What might be the significance of the study?
A.Improving speech and hearing science. B.Developing a treatment for misophonia.
C.Drawing people’s attention to misophonia. D.Promoting human brain structure research.
【答案】24.D 25.C 26.B
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了发表在《神经科学杂志》上的一项新研究将某些形式的恐音症与大脑中强化的“镜像”行为联系起来:当受影响的人感到痛苦时,他们的大脑就像在模仿触发他们的嘴巴动作。
24.推理判断题。根据文章第二段“People with misophonia experience strong discomfort, annoyance or disgust when they hear particular triggers.(恐音症患者在听到特定的触发点时会感到强烈的不适、烦恼或厌恶。)”和“Now, however, a new study published in Journal of Neuroscience has linked some forms of misophonia to heightened “mirroring” behavior in the brain: those affected feel distress while their brains act as if they were imitating the triggering mouth movements.(然而,现在发表在《神经科学杂志》上的一项新研究将某些形式的恐音症与大脑中强化的“镜像”行为联系起来:当受影响的人感到痛苦时,他们的大脑就像在模仿触发他们的嘴巴动作。)”可知,恐音症患者的大脑中也有类似的恼人活动。故选D。
25.细节理解题。根据文章第四段“But in both the resting state and listening trials, people with misophonia showed stronger connections between the auditory cortex and brain regions that control movements of the face, mouth and throat, while the controlled group didn’t.(但在静息状态和听力测试中,恐音症患者的听觉皮层和控制面部、嘴巴和喉咙运动的大脑区域之间表现出更强的联系,而对照组则没有。)”和文章第五段“Some mirroring is typical in most humans when witnessing others’ actions; the researchers do not yet know why an excessive(过分的) mirroring response might cause such a negative reaction, and hope to address that in future research.(大多数人在目睹他人行为时,会出现一些典型的镜像;研究人员还不知道为什么过度的镜像反应会导致如此负面的反应,并希望在未来的研究中解决这个问题。)”可知,与没有恐音症的人相比,恐音症患者对镜像反应的反应更消极。故选C。
26.推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Fatima Husain, an Illinois University professor of speech and hearing science, who was not involved in the study, says potential misophonia therapies could build on the new findings by counseling patients about handling unconscious motor responses to triggering sounds—not just coping with the sounds themselves. If this works, she adds, one should expect to see reduced connected activity between the auditory and motor cortices.(伊利诺伊大学语言和听力科学教授法蒂玛·侯赛因没有参与这项研究,她说,潜在的恐音症治疗方法可以建立在新发现的基础上,即咨询患者如何处理触发声音的无意识运动反应——而不仅仅是应对声音本身。她补充说,如果这种方法有效,人们应该会看到听觉和运动皮层之间的连接活动减少。)”可知,这个研究可能的重要意义在于开发一种治疗恐音症的方法。故选B。
C
Without cracking a single textbook, without spending a day in medical school, the co-author of a preprint study correctly answered enough questions that it would have passed the real US Medical Licensing Examination. But the test-taker wasn’t a member of Mensa or a medical specialist; it was the artificial intelligence ChatGPT. The tool, which was created to answer user questions in a conversational manner, has generated so much buzz that doctors and scientists are trying to determine what its limitations are and what it could do for health and medicine.
The medical licensing exam is generally considered one of the toughest of any profession because it not only tests basic science, medical knowledge, but also assesses clinical reasoning, ethics (道德观念), critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
The AI passed all the parts of the exam without any specialized training, showing a high level of insight in its explanations. This greatly impressed Dr. Victor Tseng, a medical director of the California-based group and a co-author of the study. “Googling the answer is very difficult,” he explained. “Because there’re a lot of red herrings on the Internet. It might take hours to get an accurate answer.” But ChatGPT was able to do it within five seconds.
The results of the medical licensing exam study were even written up with the help of ChatGPT. However, the journal Nature created guidelines that said no such program could be credited as an author because “any authorship carries with it accountability for the work, and AI tools cannot take such responsibility.” Actually, AI is only as good as the information it’s fed, and with so much inaccurate information available online about things like Covid-19 vaccines, it could use that to generate inaccurate results.
Tseng said he ultimately thinks ChatGPT can enhance medical practice, but won’t replace doctors. Tseng’s group will continue to test it to learn why it creates certain errors and what other ethical factors need to be put in place before using it for real.
“AI is here. The doors are open,” Tseng said. “I firmly believe that it will actually make me and make us as physicians and providers better.”
27.What can ChatGPT possibly do according to paragraph 1?
A.Study in medical school. B.Start an online conversation.
C.Conduct a study independently. D.Pass a challenging examination.
28.What does underlined words “red herrings” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A.Appealing topics. B.Efficient helpers. C.Hidden resources. D.Distracting facts.
29.According to Nature, ChatGPT can’t be listed as an author because_______
A.it has invented all the data based on inaccurate information
B.it doesn’t actively create and is not responsible for the work
C.it doesn’t have a bank account and can’t receive payment
D.it has failed to demonstrate problem-solving skills
30.What is Tseng’s attitude towards the future of ChatGPT?
A.Interested yet doubtful. B.Disinterested and calm.
C.Confident yet cautious. D.Critical and disappointed.
【答案】27.D 28.D 29.B 30.C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了人工智能ChatGPT。该工具正确地回答了足够多的问题,从而通过了真正的美国医学执照考试。
27.细节理解题。根据第一段“Without cracking a single textbook, without spending a day in medical school, the co-author of a preprint study correctly answered enough questions that it would have passed the real US Medical Licensing Examination. (这位预印本研究的合著者没有破解一本教科书,也没有在医学院呆上一天,就正确地回答了足够多的问题,从而通过了真正的美国医学执照考试。)”以及第二段“The medical licensing exam is generally considered one of the toughest of any profession( 医学执照考试通常被认为是所有职业中最难的考试之一)”可知,ChatGPT通过了具有挑战性的考试。故选D。
28.词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句的前一句““Googling the answer is very difficult,” he explained. (“用谷歌搜索答案非常困难,”他解释道。)”以及后一句“It might take hours to get an accurate answer.” (可能需要几个小时才能得到准确的答案。)可知,用谷歌搜索正确答案难度大的原因是:网上有很多干扰信息,故可以推知red herrings指的是干扰信息。A. Appealing topics.吸引人的话题;B. Efficient helpers.高效的助手;C. Hidden resources.隐藏的资源;D. Distracting facts. 分散注意力的事实。故选D。
29.细节理解题。根据第四段中“However, the journal Nature created guidelines that said no such program could be credited as an author because “any authorship carries with it accountability for the work, and AI tools cannot take such responsibility.” (医学执照考试研究的结果甚至是在ChatGPT的帮助下写出来的。然而,《自然》杂志制定了指南,指出任何此类程序都不能被视为作者,因为“任何作者都要对工作负责,人工智能工具也不能承担这样的责任。) ”可知,作者身份意味着对作品的责任,AI工具却不能承担这样的责任。故选B。
30.推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Tseng’s group will continue to test it to learn why it creates certain errors and what other ethical factors need to be put in place before using it for real. (曾的团队将继续测试它,以了解它为什么会造成某些错误,以及在真正使用它之前需要考虑哪些其他道德因素。)”以及“I firmly believe that it will actually make me and make us as physicians and providers better. (我坚信,这会让我变得更好,让我们作为医生和提供者变得更好。)”可推断出Tseng对ChatGPT的态度是充满信心同时也很小心谨慎。故选C。
D
“I can’t connect with your characters.”
I kept hearing the same feedback and was unable to understand why and not sure what to do. I was a character-driven writer. How could I mess up the one thing I was supposed to be good at? I was determined to convince my agent that these characters were real. After all, I knew they were real. My main character Lotus had lived inside me for years. I just needed to clarify her on the page.
I wrote and edited for a year, trying to respond to this agent’s feedback. But Lotus’ personality began to disappear. I tried to have her make “better” decisions, wear smarter fashion, and have more friends, as my agent said she acted “immature” and was “isolated”. And when this agent ultimately parted ways with me, I felt like I had failed. Now with time and distance, I realize I tried to fit Lotus into a neurotypical style to please my agent. And as a result, Lotus lost her Lotus-ness.
When that agent discouraged me from writing Lotus as autistic(自闭的), he said that would make Lotus seem more “vulnerable(脆弱的)” or an “obvious victim”. I didn’t want Lotus to seem vulnerable. Lotus’ autism is what makes her powerful, I tried to explain. But from a neurotypical perspective, Lotus’ autism could only be seen as a weakness.
Unsure of how to convince my agent of the strength and power autistic women hold, I began to write Lotus as “neurotypical”. And I failed miserably. After all, what do I know about being neurotypical? My whole life, autism was my default. Not being diagnosed until 2020, I assumed the way I saw the world was “normal”.
My current agent encourages me to write from my neurodivergent(神经多样性的) experience. With this invitation, I revisited Lotus and saw her the way I first wrote her. And when I did, the characters and the entire narrative began to make more sense.
Identifying my characters as neurodivergent not only gives me joy as a writer, but it has produced my strongest writing. For so long. I’ve combatted the advice to “write what I know”, in part because I didn’t know what I actually knew. I didn’t know I was neurodivergent. But as I mine the specificity of my lived experience, my writing is stronger. There is a power to our lived experience. It’s not a limitation on our craft, but a swinging open of the gates.
31.How did the author feel when receiving the repeated response from the first agent?
A.Confused. B.Convinced. C.Determined. D.Disappointed.
32.Lotus’ personality got lost because ______
A.Lotus no longer lived inside the author B.the author attempted to please the agent
C.the agent failed to sympathize with Lotus D.Lotus was considered childish and lonely
33.What do we know about the author?
A.She regretted parting with the agent.
B.She owed her success in life to autism.
C.She was aware of her autism in the early years.
D.She was empowered by her autistic experience.
34.What has the author learned from her own experience?
A.Stick to your dream despite discouragement.
B.Be true to yourself and write from your heart.
C.Giving in to authority is the barrier to success.
D.Everyone is born an original instead of a copy.
【答案】31.A 32.B 33.D 34.B
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了患有自闭症的作者写作的经历,告诉我们在写作时做真实的自己,写发自内心的东西。
31.推理判断题。根据文章第一段““I can’t connect with your characters.”(“我无法与你的角色产生共鸣。”)”和第二段“I kept hearing the same feedback and was unable to understand why and not sure what to do.( 我一直听到同样的反馈,不明白为什么,也不知道该怎么做。)”可以推知,当收到经纪人的反复回应时,作者感到不解。故选A。
32.细节理解题。根据文章第三段“I wrote and edited for a year, trying to respond to this agent’s feedback. But Lotus’ personality began to disappear.( 我写了一年,编辑了一年,试图回应这位经纪人的反馈。但是Lotus的个性开始消失。)”和“Now with time and distance, I realize I tried to fit Lotus into a neurotypical style to please my agent.(随着时间和距离的推移,我意识到我试图把Lotus塑造成一种典型的风格,以取悦我的经纪人。)”可知,Lotus的个性开始消失是因为作者试图取悦经纪人。故选B。
33.推理判断题。根据文章第五段“After all, what do I know about being neurotypical? My whole life, autism was my default. Not being diagnosed until 2020, I assumed the way I saw the world was “normal”.( 毕竟,我对正常神经又有什么了解呢?在我的一生中,自闭症是我的默认症状。直到2020年我才被确诊,我以为我看世界的方式是“正常的”。)”和文章最后一段“But as I mine the specificity of my lived experience, my writing is stronger.( 但当我挖掘我的生活经历的特殊性时,我的写作就更强大了。)”可知,作者的自闭症经历给了她力量。故选D。
34.推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“My current agent encourages me to write from my neurodivergent(神经多样性的) experience. With this invitation, I revisited Lotus and saw her the way I first wrote her. And when I did, the characters and the entire narrative began to make more sense.(我现在的经纪人鼓励我根据我的神经发散经验来写作。带着这份邀请,我重新“拜访”了Lotus,看到了我第一次塑造她的样子。当我这样做的时候,角色和整个叙事开始变得更有意义。)”和文章最后一段“Identifying my characters as neurodivergent not only gives me joy as a writer, but it has produced my strongest writing. (把我的角色定位为神经发散者,不仅给了我作为作家的快乐,也让我写出了最精彩的作品。)”以及“But as I mine the specificity of my lived experience, my writing is stronger. There is a power to our lived experience. It’s not a limitation on our craft, but a swinging open of the gates.(但当我挖掘我的生活经历的特殊性时,我的写作就更强大了。我们的生活经历有一种力量。这并不是对我们的技术的限制,而是一扇敞开的大门。)”可知,作者从自己的经历中学到做真实的自己,写发自内心的东西。故选B。

第一节 阅读表达(共4小题,第40、41题各2分,第42题3分,第43题5分,共12分)
阅读下面短文,根据题目要求回答问题。
Ghanim Al-Muftah, 2022 Qatar World Cup Ambassador(大使), was born on May 5, 2002, with a rare condition known as Caudal Regression Syndrome, which causes its patients to be born without the lower half of the body.
Naturally, one would expect him to use a wheelchair, but he insists on moving around on his hands because he believes that he should make use of everything with which he is blessed rather than focus on what he doesn’t have.
While Ghanim was growing up, he found it difficult to attend school initially because his classmates played jokes on him. Nevertheless, his mom encouraged him to speak to these classmates, teach them about his condition, and raise awareness for the community. Ghanim has gone further at accepting his condition.
Ghanim has overcome all kinds of difficulties in his life, yet, there is still one issue Ghanim must continually deal with-many medical treatments and surgery. Despite these routine medical treatments, he knows that with faith, commitment and hard work he will be free to accomplish his ambitions. Ghanim refused to let his condition stop his thirst for life and took on various sports-tackling everything from scuba diving, rock climbing to skateboarding. It is this exemplary take and attitudes towards life that have earned him the love, respect, and admiration of millions of people in Qatar and across the globe.
Currently in university studying political science, Al Muftah hopes to become a diplomat one day. He is also a major social media star, with millions of followers on social media. And he spoke about his future ambitions on the university’s website, saying, “I hope to help raise public awareness on disability rights; foster respect for disabled persons and through the process promote more inclusive and tolerant societies.”
40.Why does Ghanim insist on walking with his hands instead of using a wheelchair?
_________________________________________________________
41.What problem does Ghanim have to handle continually?
_________________________________________________________
42.Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why.
Ghanim believes he will accomplish his ambitions through taking on a range of sports and speaking out on social media.
_________________________________________________________
43.While Ghanim has earned respect of people across the globe, how do you earn respect of people around you? (In about 40 words)
_________________________________________________________
【答案】40.Because he believes that he should make use of what he is blessed with instead of what he lacks. 41.Many medical treatments and surgery. 42.Ghanim believes he will accomplish his ambitions through taking on a range of sports and speaking out on social media. Because Ghanim believes he will accomplish his ambitions with faith, commitment and hard work./ Ghanim knows that with faith, commitment and hard work he will be free to accomplish his ambitions. 43.Honest with others, never telling lies , knowing how to care for others and be modest to others are important. As long as we abide by the above mentioned, we will find it easy to be respected by others.
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述的是2022年卡塔尔世界杯形象大使Ghanim Al-Muftah的个人故事。
40.考查细节理解题。根据第二段中“Naturally, one would expect him to use a wheelchair, but he insists on moving around on his hands because he believes that he should make use of everything with which he is blessed rather than focus on what he doesn’t have.(自然地,人们会认为他使用轮椅,但他坚持用手走动,因为他认为他应该利用他有幸拥有的一切,而不是专注于他没有的东西。)”可知,他之所以坚持用手走动,是因为他认为他应该利用他所拥有的一切,而不是专注于他没有的东西。故答案为Because he believes that he should make use of what he is blessed with instead of what he lacks。
41.考查细节理解题。根据第四段中“Ghanim has overcome all kinds of difficulties in his life, yet, there is still one issue Ghanim must continually deal with-many medical treatments and surgery. (Ghanim已经克服了生活中的各种困难,但仍有一个问题是Ghanim必须不断面对的——多次治疗和手术。)”可知,Ghanim必须不断面对多次的治疗和手术。故答案为Many medical treatments and surgery。
42.考查细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“Despite these routine medical treatments, he knows that with faith, commitment and hard work he will be free to accomplish his ambitions. (尽管有这些常规的医疗治疗,他知道只要有信念、承诺和努力工作,他就可以自由地实现他的雄心壮志。)”可知,题干中“Ghanim believes he will accomplish his ambitions through taking on a range of sports and speaking out on social media.( Ghanim相信,他将通过参与一系列运动并在社交媒体上发表言论来实现自己的雄心。)”中的“他将通过参与一系列运动并在社交媒体上发表言论来实现自己的雄心”为错误部分,他认为只要有信念、承诺和努力工作,他就可以自由地实现他的雄心壮志。原文要求对错误句子进行下划线标注,故答案为Ghanim believes he will accomplish his ambitions through taking on a range of sports and speaking out on social media. Because Ghanim believes he will accomplish his ambitions with faith, commitment and hard work. / Ghanim knows that with faith, commitment and hard work he will be free to accomplish his ambitions。
43.开放式题目考查。根据题干要求“While Ghanim has earned respect of people across the globe, how do you earn respect of people around you?( Ghanim赢得了全世界人民的尊重,你如何赢得周围人的尊重呢?)”可知,题干根据实际要求回答如何赢得周围人的尊敬,回答合理即可。在日常生活中,获得他人尊重需要做到诚实、谦虚和体贴他人。故参考答案为:Honest with others, never telling lies , knowing how to care for others and be modest to others are important. As long as we abide by the above mentioned, we will find it easy to be respected by others。
