这个答案的代号涂黑。
A
One day in autumn Squire Gordon, my master, went on a trip into town. John, my caretaker, went with him. I
pulled the cart. The weather was rainy and windy, but we travelled happily.
Gordon’s business took a long time. We didn’t leave until late afternoon. The wind was then much higher. My
master said to John, “I have never been out in such a storm!” Mr Gordon and John could not see well in the rain.
We came to a wooden bridge. It was very nearly dark. We could just see that the water was over the middle of
the bridge. But as that happened sometimes when the floods were out, master did not stop. The moment my feet
touched the first part of the bridge, I felt sure there was something wrong. I dare (敢于) not go forward, and I made
a dead stop. “Go on, Beauty,” said my master, and he gave me a touch with the whip (鞭子), but I dare not move.
He gave me a sharp cut and I jumped, but I dare not go forward.
“There’s something wrong, sir,” said John, and he got out and tried to lead me forward. “Come on, Beauty.”
But I knew that the bridge was not safe.
Just then the man on the other side saw us.
“Hey! Halloo! Stop!” he cried.
“What’s the matter?” shouted my master.
“The bridge is broken in the middle, and part of it is carried away. If you go onto it, you’ll be into the river.”
“Thank you for saving us, Beauty!” said John. He gently turned me round to the right hand road by the river
side. It grew darker and darker, stiller and stiller.

学科网（北京）股份有限公司When we returned home the Squire told Mrs Gordon, “Black Beauty saved our lives. He knew the bridge was
dangerous.”
John took me to the stable. Oh! What a good supper he gave me that night! What a nice bed of straw! I was
glad of it, for I was tired.

Nature and culture are often seen as opposite ideas. What belongs to nature cannot be the result of human
activities and on the other hand, cultural development is achieved against nature. However, this is not the only
opinion on the relationship between nature and culture. Studies in the development of humans suggest that culture,
whether taken as an effort against nature or a natural effort, is part of the development of the human species (物种).
Several modern writers saw the process of education as a struggle (斗争) against human nature. We are born
with wild natures, such as eating and behaving in a disorganized way or acting selfishly. Education uses culture as a
way to get us out of our widest natures; it is thanks to culture that the human species could learn to adapt (适应),
第4页/共11页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司progress and raise itself above and beyond other species.
Over the past century and a half, however, studies in the history of human development have shown that the
formation of culture is part of the biological adaptation. Consider, for example, hunting (打猎). It seems to be an
adaptation, which allowed humans to move into new and different areas, opening up the opportunity to change
living habits. At the same time, the development of weapons (武器) is related to that adaptation-from rocks and
stones to a set of hunting tools, and from hunting tools to rules relating to the proper use of weapons. Hunting also
seems to be responsible for a whole set of bodily abilities, such as balancing on one foot. Just think of how this
very simple thing is closely related to dance, a key expression of human culture. It is then clear that biological
development and cultural development are closely tied.
The transmission of culture seems to be directly related to what’s in our blood. Just as snails carry their shells,
so do we bring along our culture. However, culture is also passed on among people of the same time or among
people belonging to different populations. We can learn how to make jiaozi even if we were born from Russian
parents in Paris just as we can learn how to speak English even if none of our family or friends speak that language.
30. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. Culture belongs to human nature.
B. Nature teaches humans how to adapt.
C. Humans are supposed to be well organized.
D. Education pushes the human species to progress.
31. Why does the writer talk about hunting in Paragraph 3?
A. To suggest some possible ways of changing living habits.
B. To stress the importance of tools in humans’ struggle for life.
C. To show how culture develops as humans adapt to the environment.
D. To explain why there is a need to call for the proper use of weapons.
32. The word “transmission” in Paragraph 4 probably means “________”.
A. system B. spread C. start D. spirit
33. What is the writer’s opinion on the nature-culture relationship?
A. Culture and nature are separate yet balanced.
B. Culture depends much on nature to progress.
C. Nature and culture are different but connected.
D. Nature follows the unwritten rules set by culture.

学科网（北京）股份有限公司①Have you ever talked to your phone and ended up feeling lonelier? Chen, a 14-year-old student, shared her
story. After failing a math test, she turned to ChatGPT for comfort. At first, she felt better. But later, she found
herself avoiding conversations with friends and spending more time alone with her phone. In fact, her story is not
alone.
②Recently, two studies, one by OpenAI and the other by the MIT Media Lab, found that people who had very
personal and emotional conversations with ChatGPT usually felt lonelier. They might depend on this AI tool more
emotionally, and have fewer friends in real life. But we don’t know if ChatGPT makes them feel lonely, or if lonely
people just like to talk to it to feel better. These studies are just the beginning.
③Researchers also found something interesting about different kinds of chatbots (聊天机器人). At first,
voice-based chatbots seemed to help people feel less lonely than text-based ones. But the more people used the
voice-based chatbots, the less this advantage lasted. After using ChatGPT for four weeks, female users seemed to
go out and meet people less often compared to male users. Also, when users used ChatGPT’s voice mode with a
different gender (性别), they felt much lonelier and depended on the chatbot more at the end of the study.
④These findings are similar to an earlier study in 2023. MIT Media Lab researchers found that chatbots
usually answer in a way that’s like the feelings in the users’ messages. If the users are happy the chatbots will give
,
happy answers, acting as “emotional mirrors”.
⑤Dr Andrew Rogoyski from the Surrey Institute for People said that AI chatbots can be “dangerous”. “We
need to do more research to know how they influence our social and emotional lives.” He said, “I think we’re doing
something like operating on people’s minds without knowing what will happen in the long run. We’ve seen some
bad things about social media, and this could be even worse.”
⑥Will AI become a helpful tool or a silent trap? The answer remains unclear, but one thing is certain—we
need to think further about how technology shapes our hearts and relationships before it’s too late.
34. Why does the writer mention Chen in paragraph ①?
A. To share a story. B. To discuss a method.
C. To answer the question. D. To introduce the subject.
35. What did the studies find about ChatGPT?
第6页/共11页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司A. Lonely people like to talk to ChatGPT to feel better.
B. Female users have more social activities than male users.
C. The answers from chatbots depend on the feelings of users.
D. Voice-based chatbots are more helpful than text-based ones.
36. The following sentence can best be put at the end of ________.
However: they make us think about: How does ChatGPT change our real lives?
A. Paragraph ① B. Paragraph ② C. Paragraph ③ D. Paragraph ④
37. What’s the main idea of the passage?
A ChatGPT can act as an “emotional mirror” to match users’ feelings.
.
B. ChatGPT can be dangerous because it influences our work and study.
C. AI chatbots may become a helpful tool to make people feel less lonely.
D. AI chatbots may harm human social relationships and need further study.
