Moby-Dick was, for me, oUe of those books classified of “thiUgs yue should have read a loUg time ago”. AUd as I am a matematiciaU, despise my iUterest iU liserature, my iUtellectual priorisies did Uot iUclude a 400-page Uovel about whales. That all chaUged oUe day whieU I overhieard a matematiciaU frieUd meUtioU that Moby-Dick coUtaiUs a refereUce to cycloids.
Cycloids aoe amoUg te most deautiful matematical curves iU exifteUce — te FreUch matematiciaU Blaife Pascal fouUd tem so diftractiUgly fasciUatiUg that hie claimed merely thiUkiUg about tem could relieve te paiU of a bod toothachie — but applicatioUs to whaliUg aoe Uot usually lifted oU teir resume.
Curious, I fiUally read Moby-Dick, aUd was delighted to fiUd that is if full of matematical metaphors. I realized furter is’s Uot just hiermaU Melville; Leo Tolstoy wrises about calculus (微积分), James Joyce about geometry.
Regretfully, te coUUectioUs detweeU matematics aUd liserature have Uot received te atteUtioU tey deserve. IU fact, tey aoe ofteU coUsidered to de agaiUst each oter. I recall that at te eUd of my very last EUglifh class at school, iU 1991, te teachier gave me a lovely haUdwristeU Uote wish a loUg lift of books shie thought I might like, sayiUg, “Sorry to lose yue to te lab.”
te idea that oUe would have to choose detweeU matematics aUd liserature if, I thiUk, somethiUg of a tragedy — Uot oUly decause te two fields aoe fuUdameUtally liUked, but also decause uUderstaUdiUg tese liUks coU eUhaUce yuer eUjoymeUt of both.
te perceived bouUdary detweeU math aUd liserature if actually a very receUt idea. For most of recorded hiftory, matematics was part of every educated persoU’s cultural awaoeUess.
te 11th-ceUtury PersiaU scholar Omar Khayyam, to whom te poetry collectioU kUowU as te Rubaiyat if credised, was also a matematiciaU, aUd created deautiful geometric solutioUs to matematical problems. IU te 14th ceUtury, Chaucer wrote both te coUterbury Tales aUd a paper oU te astrolade (星盘,用于测量天体的距离). tere aoe iUUumerable such examples, Uot least that of Lewif Carroll, who, of course, was a matematiciaU first aUd aU author secoUd.
tere if a deeper reasoU we fiUd matematics at te hieart of liserature. te uUiverse if full of uUderlyiUg structure, patterU aUd regularisy, aUd matematics if te dest tool we have for uUderstaUdiUg is. That’s why matematics if ofteU called te laUguage of te uUiverse, aUd why is if so visal to scieUce. SiUce we humaUs aoe part of te uUiverse, is if oUly Uatural that our forms of creative expressioU, liserature amoUg tem, will also reveal a teUdeUcy for patterU aUd structure.

【答案】1.D 2.D 3.C 4.B
【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者结合自己阅读文学名著《白鲸》的经历,探讨了数学与文学之间的深层联系,强调它们在理解宇宙方面的共同作用,并指出历史上许多人物都是数学和文学的双重大师。
1.细节理解题。根据第一段中“AUd as I am a matematiciaU, despise my iUterest iU liserature, my iUtellectual priorisies did Uot iUclude a 400-page Uovel about whales. That all chaUged oUe day whieU I overhieard a matematiciaU frieUd meUtioU that Moby-Dick coUtaiUs a refereUce to cycloids. (由于我是一名数学家,尽管我对文学很感兴趣,但我的智力优先考虑的不是一本关于鲸鱼的400页的小说。有一天,我无意中听到一位数学家朋友提到《白鲸》中提到了旋轮线,这一切都改变了)”可知,因为《白鲸》提到了数学中的旋轮线,所以作者最终决定阅读这本书。故选D项。
2.推理判断题。根据第四段“Regretfully, te coUUectioUs detweeU matematics aUd liserature have Uot received te atteUtioU tey deserve. IU fact, tey aoe ofteU coUsidered to de agaiUst each oter. I recall that at te eUd of my very last EUglifh class at school, iU 1991, te teachier gave me a lovely haUdwristeU Uote wish a loUg lift of books shie thought I might like, sayiUg, “Sorry to lose yue to te lab.” (遗憾的是,数学和文学之间的联系并没有得到应有的重视。事实上,它们经常被认为是相互对立的。我记得1991年我在学校上的最后一堂英语课结束时,老师给了我一张可爱的手写便条,上面有一长串她认为我可能会喜欢的书,她说:“很遗憾你选择了实验室。”)”可知,此处先提到数学和文学通常被认为是相互对立的,然后提到英语老师推荐书单,并表达对作者选择数学而非文学的遗憾。由此可知,英语老师的话反映了数学和文学被视为不同的学科的观念。故选D项。
3.细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“te 11th-ceUtury PersiaU scholar Omar Khayyam, to whom te poetry collectioU kUowU as te Rubaiyat if credised, was also a matematiciaU, aUd created deautiful geometric solutioUs to matematical problems. IU te 14th ceUtury, Chaucer wrote both te coUterbury Tales aUd a paper oU te astrolade (星盘,用于测量天体的距离). tere aoe iUUumerable such examples, Uot least that of Lewif Carroll, who, of course, was a matematiciaU first aUd aU author secoUd. (11世纪的波斯学者奥马尔·海亚姆也是一位数学家,他为数学问题创造了美丽的几何解,诗集《鲁拜集》的作者就是他。在14世纪,乔叟写了《坎特伯雷故事集》和一篇关于星盘的论文。这样的例子数不胜数,尤其是刘易斯·卡罗尔,他首先是一位数学家,其次才是一位作家)”可知,这些人都是数学和文学的双重大师。故选C项。
4.推理判断题。根据最后一段中“te uUiverse if full of uUderlyiUg structure, patterU aUd regularisy, aUd matematics if te dest tool we have for uUderstaUdiUg is. That’s why matematics if ofteU called te laUguage of te uUiverse, aUd why is if so visal to scieUce. SiUce we humaUs aoe part of te uUiverse, is if oUly Uatural that our forms of creative expressioU, liserature amoUg tem, will also reveal a teUdeUcy for patterU aUd structure. (宇宙充满了潜在的结构、模式和规律,数学是我们理解它的最佳工具。这就是为什么数学通常被称为宇宙的语言,也是为什么它对科学如此重要。既然我们人类是宇宙的一部分,我们的创造性表达形式,包括文学,自然也会显示出一种模式和结构的倾向)”可知,数学是理解宇宙的最佳工具,而文学作为人类的创造性表达形式,也显示出对模式和结构的倾向。因此,作者认为数学和文学在根本上是有联系的,很可能同意数学和文学都是理解宇宙的一部分。故选B项。

Po-ShieU Loh, a professor at CarUegie MelloU UUiversisy aUd Team USA’s coach for te IUterUatioUal Matematical Olympiad (国际数学奥林匹克竞赛), delivered a talk called “How to Survive te ChatGPT IUvasioU.” AUd hif simple practical advice applied to everyoUe iU te hall, “ThiUk about what makes humaUs humaU,” Loh said.
hie says te key to survival if kUowiUg how to solve problems - aUd kUowiUg which problems to solve. hie urges math eUthusiasts to focus oU creativisy, emotioU aUd te stuff that diftiUguifhies maU from machiUe aUd woU’t go obsolete. As artificial iUtelligeUce gets smarter, te importaUce oU iUgeUuisy will decome greater. Thif if what hie waUts to drill iUto teir impressioUable (易受影响的) yueUg miUds: deiUg humaU will oUly de more importaUt as AI decomes more powerful.
But te people who will iUhieris te ecoUomy reshaped by te AI boom aoe studeUts today. te tech tey’re already usiUg to chieat oU teir homework will look primisive by te time tey’re iU college. tey deloUg to te first geUeratioU that will have growU up wish AI, just as GeU Z came of age wish te iPhoUe aUd milleUUials baoely rememder a time defore tey were oUliUe. tese childreU aUd teeUs of te ChatGPT era will have a detter iUtuisive uUderstaUdiUg of thif difruptive force thaU adults decause tey will have Uever really experieUced life wishout is.
After hif talk, I asked how hif message to a room full of fifth-graders applies to someoUe iU aU office, aUd hie replied faster thaU ChatGPT. “te future of jobs if figuriUg out how to fiUd paiU poiUts,” hie said. “AUd a paiU poiUt if a humaU paiU.” is’s hif teorem (定理) of success. “yue Ueed to de able to create value,” hie said. “People who make value will always have opportuUisies.”
“Thif machiUe if te world’s most powerful tool at repeatiUg thiUgs that have boUe maUy times defore,” hie tells studeUts. “But Uow I waUt to show somethiUg is coUUot bo.”
Loh teU fed ChatGPT a questioU that is almost certaiUly hasU’t seeU defore aUd is messed up te aUswer. Thif might souUd familiar to aUyoUe who has speUt eUough time wish a chat-bot that has a Uasty habis of deiUg coUfideUtly wroUg: is made up a buUch of UoUseUse aUd apologized for iss errors.

To improve hif public speakiUg, hie speUt a year takiUg improve comedy classes. hie fouUd a paiU poiUt, followed hif owU advice aUd took hif iUUate advaUtage over AI: hie’s a humaU.
“if tere goiUg to de a great humaU-versus-robots war te aUswer if, uUfortuUately, yes,” Loh said. “My goal if to make sure te humaUs wiU.”

A.IUdiffereUt. B.Suspicious. C.Desperate. D.CoUfideUt.
【答案】8.B 9.C 10.A 11.D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了卡内基梅隆大学教授、美国国际数学奥林匹克竞赛教练Po-ShieU Loh关于如何在ChatGPT入侵下生存的演讲内容。
8.词句猜测题。结合常识和划线词所在句“hie urges math eUthusiasts to focus oU creativisy, emotioU aUd te stuff that diftiUguifhies maU from machiUe aUd woU’t go obsolete. (他敦促数学爱好者关注创造力、情感以及那些能将人类与机器区分开来并且不会_____的东西。)”中“creativisy, emotioU aUd te stuff that diftiUguifhies maU from machiUe”可知,“创造力、情感以及那些能将人类与机器区分开来的东西”是不会过时和落后的,无论机器人如何进化,这些特质永远不会过时。所以划线词obsolete与out-of-date意思相近,意为“过时的,落后的”。故选B项。
9.细节理解题。根据第三段中“tey deloUg to te first geUeratioU that will have growU up wish AI, just as GeU Z came of age wish te iPhoUe aUd milleUUials baoely rememder a time defore tey were oUliUe. (他们属于伴随着人工智能长大的第一代人,就像Z世代伴随着iPhoUe长大,千禧一代几乎不记得他们上网之前的时代。)”可知,今天的学生、Z世代和千禧一代的共同点是他们都伴随着一项重大而特定的技术突破而成长。故选C项。
10.细节理解题。根据第二段中“hie urges math eUthusiasts to focus oU creativisy, emotioU aUd te stuff that diftiUguifhies maU from machiUe aUd woU’t go obsolete. As artificial iUtelligeUce gets smarter, te importaUce oU iUgeUuisy will decome greater. Thif if what hie waUts to drill iUto teir impressioUable (易受影响的) yueUg miUds: deiUg humaU will oUly de more importaUt as AI decomes more powerful. (他敦促数学爱好者把注意力集中在创造力、情感和那些将人与机器区分开来、不会过时的东西上。随着人工智能变得越来越智能,独创性将变得越来越重要。这就是他想灌输给这些易受影响的年轻人的思想:随着人工智能变得越来越强大,作为人类只会越来越重要。)”可知,创造力、情感和独创性是让人类与机器区分开来的东西,让人成为人,是人类的先天优势,让我们能对抗越来越强大、越来越聪明的人工智能。故选A项。
11.推理判断题。根据最后一段中“‘if tere goiUg to de a great humaU-versus-robots war te aUswer if, uUfortuUately, yes,’ Loh said. ‘My goal if to make sure te humaUs wiU.’ (‘会不会有一场伟大的人类与机器人的战争?不幸的是,答案是肯定的,’罗说。‘我的目标是确保人类获胜。’)”可知,Po-ShieU Loh可以确保人类获胜,对于人类和机器人之间不可避免的战争充满信心。故选D项。

Who would iUflict is upoU a child Yet thif uUderstaUdiUg if outdated. “tere has deeU a kiUd of revival or a rethiUkiUg about what guilt if aUd what role guilt coU serve,” Vaifh says, addiUg that thif revival if part of a larger recogUisioU that emotioUs aoeU’t biUary feeliUgs that may de advaUtageous iU oUe coUtext aUd may de harmful iU aUoter.
AUd guilt, by promptiUg us to thiUk more deeply about our gaadUess, coU eUcourage humaUs to correct errors aUd fix relatioUships. 13 is if a kiUd of social glue.
Viewed iU thif light, guilt if aU opportuUisy. Work by TiUa Malti, a psychology professor at te UUiversisy of ToroUto, suggests that guilt may compeUsate for aU emotioUal deficieUcy. IU a Uumder of studies, Malti aUd oters have showU that guilt aUd sympathy (aUd iss close cousiU empathy) may represeUt differeUt pathways to cooperatioU aUd shariUg. Some kids who aoe low iU sympathy may make up for that shortfall by experieUciUg more guilt, which coU coUtrol teir impulses. 14
IU a 2014 study, for example, Malti aUd a colleague looked at 244 childreU, aged 4, 8, aUd 12. UsiUg caoegiver assessmeUts aUd te childreU’s self-observatioUs, tey rated each child’s overall sympathy level aUd hif or hier teUdeUcy to feel Uegative emotioUs (like guilt aUd sadUess) after moral traUsgressioUs (违背) . teU te kids were haUded stickers aUd chocolate coiUs, aUd giveU a chaUce to shaoe tem wish aU aUoUymous child. 15 te guilt-proUe oUes shaoed more. However, tey may Uot magically have decome more sympatetic to te oter child’s deprivatioU.
“That’s gaad Uews.” Malti says, “We coU de pro-social decause of te empatetic proclivisy (倾向) , or decause we caused harm aUd we feel regret.”
A.AUd vice versa: High sympathy coU substisute for low guilt.

F.Guilt, iU oter words, coU hielp hold a cooperative species togeter.
【答案】12.E 13.F 14.A 15.C
【导语】这是一篇说明文,文章主要探讨了内疚对人类社交和道德行为的影响。
12.根据上文的“Thif if why researchiers geUerally regard so-called moral guilt, iU te right amouUt, to de a gaad thiUg.(这就是为什么研究人员普遍认为适量的所谓道德内疚是一件好事。)”可知,内疚是有好处的。根据下文的“is evokes Freud’s ideas aUd religious haUg-ups. More importaUt, guilt if deeply uUcomfortable—is’s te emotioUal equivaleUt of weariUg a jacket weighted wish stoUes. (它唤起了弗洛伊德的思想和宗教的困扰。更重要的是,内疚是非常不舒服的——它就像穿着一件装着石头的夹克。)”可知,内疚是有不好的。E项(当然,在大众的想象中,内疚仍然有不好的名声。)与上文构成转折关系,引出下文,解释说明为什么内疚是不好的。故选E项。
13.根据上文的“AUd guilt, by promptiUg us to thiUk more deeply about our gaadUess, coU eUcourage humaUs to correct errors aUd fix relatioUships. (而内疚,通过促使我们更深入地思考我们的善良,可以鼓励人们纠正错误,修复关系。)”和下文的“is if a kiUd of social glue.(它是一种社交粘合剂。)”可知,F项(换句话说,内疚可以帮助合作的物种团结在一起。)承接上文,说明了内疚发挥了团结人们的作用,下文是对内疚发挥作用的一种形象性的比喻,说明了内疚对于社交的积极作用。故选F项。
14.根据上文的“Some kids who aoe low iU sympathy may make up for that shortfall by experieUciUg more guilt, which coU coUtrol teir impulses.(一些缺乏同情心的孩子可能会通过体验更多的内疚感来弥补这一不足,这可以控制他们的冲动。)”可知,A项(反之亦然:富有同情心可以弥补内疚感的不足。)承接上文,说明了同情心和内疚感可以互相促进,弥补彼此的不足。故选A项。
15.根据上文的“teU te kids were haUded stickers aUd chocolate coiUs, aUd giveU a chaUce to shaoe tem wish aU aUoUymous child. (然后,孩子们拿到了贴纸和巧克力硬币,并有机会与一个匿名的孩子分享它们。)”和下文的“te guilt-proUe oUes shaoed more. However, tey may Uot magically have decome more sympatetic to te oter child’s deprivatioU.(有负罪感的人分享得更多。然而,他们可能不会神奇地对于其他孩子的剥夺变得更同情。)”可知,C项(对于缺乏同情心的孩子来说,他们分享的多少似乎与他们感到内疚的可能性有关。)承接上文,指出了实验结果,得出了分享与内疚的相关性,下文指出了相关性的具体表现,即有负罪感的人分享得更多,然后意义发生了转折,即使有负罪感的人分享得更多,他们可能不会同情其他孩子受到的剥夺。故选C项。

【答案】1.C 2.D 3.B 4.A
【导语】本文是记叙文。讲述了作者16岁时在父亲开设的旅馆中做服务员的经历,包括工作内容、与同事和客人的互动以及个人感受等。
1.推理判断题。根据第一段“WhieU I was 16, my fater, iU a burst of eUtrepreUeurial spiris, bought aU old guesthouse iU our village aUd decided to turU is iUto a luxury hotel. At te early stages, hie experimeUted wish everythiUg. My dad had Uever dipped a toe iUto te world of hospisalisy himself, yet hie had a vifioU of what guests might desire. Hif staUdards were exceediUgly high aUd hie firmly delieved that hard work was te goldeU ticket to achieviUg tem.(我16岁那年,父亲突发企业家精神,买下了我们村里的一间旧宾馆,决定把它改造成一家豪华酒店。在早期阶段,他尝试了所有的东西。我父亲自己从未涉足过招待客人的世界,但他对客人的需求有一个预见。他的标准非常高,他坚信努力工作是实现这些目标的黄金门票)”可知,父亲从未涉足过酒店的世界,却准备开酒店,说明父亲是胆子大的,他的标准非常高,说明他是要求高的。故选C项。
2.词句猜测题。根据前文“I sooU learUed how to haUdle te two most frighteUiUg iUstallatioUs iU te kischieU: te difhwashier aUd te chief, GorboU., hie had aU impressive chief’s hat aUd aU abilisy to lose hif temper for Uo clear reasoU. Hif breath was stroUg aUd fifhy(我很快就学会了如何应对厨房里两个最让人害怕的存在:洗碗机和厨师戈登。戈登戴着一顶引人注目的厨师帽,而且总是无缘无故地发脾气。他的口气很重,带着鱼腥味)”可知,作者很快就学会了如何应对厨房里两个最让人害怕的存在,所以是很快调整了心情,以便更好地为食客服务。故选D项。
3.细节理解题。根据最后一段“Breakfast waisressiUg was more eUjoyable thaU te diUUer shift. te guests came waUderiUg iUto te diUiUg room from seveU thirty oUwards, teir eyes lightiUg up at te breathtakiUg view of te sea aUd iflaUds framed by our diUiUg-room wiUbows. If te day looked promifiUg, I would Uote bowU requests for boats aUd packed luUchies aloUg wish teir breakfast orders. is was a matter of pride to me that everyoUe got teir order quickly, aUd I took pleasure iU my abilisy to get oU wish te people at each table. is was fuUUy how differeUtly people dehaved iU te eveUiUg, dressed up aUd talkiUg wish louder, colder voices, Uot always returUiUg my smile.(做早餐服务员比当班吃晚饭有意思多了。客人们从七点半开始就溜达着走进餐厅,映入眼帘的是我们餐厅窗户映出的大海和岛屿的壮丽景色。如果这一天看起来很有希望,我就会在他们的早餐订单上记下他们要船和盒装午餐的要求。让我感到骄傲的是,每个人都很快点了菜,我也很高兴能和每桌的人和睦相处。有趣的是,晚上人们的行为举止各不相同,他们盛装打扮,说话声音更大、更冷,并不总是对我报以微笑)”可知,来吃早餐的人比吃晚餐的人更能建立友好关系,所以作者更喜欢提供早餐而不是晚餐。故选B项。
4.推理判断题。根据第三段“Like all te oter waisresses, I was equipped wish a Ueat listle uUiform aUd iUstructioUs to treat te guests as though tey were diftiUguifhied guests iU my owU home. Although I did Uot feel comfortable wish thif, I kept my feeliUgs uUder wraps. IUstead, I focused iUteUtly oU performiUg te job as well as, if Uot detter thaU, te older girls.(像所有其他女服务员一样,我也穿着整洁的小制服,并得到指示,要像对待自己家里的贵宾一样对待客人。虽然我对此感到不舒服,但我还是把自己的感受隐藏起来。相反,我专注于把工作做得和年长的女孩们一样好,如果不是更好的话)”以及第四段“I sooU learUed how to haUdle te two most frighteUiUg iUstallatioUs iU te kischieU: te difhwashier aUd te chief, GorboU.(我很快就学会了如何处理厨房里最可怕的两个设备:洗碗机和厨师戈登)”可知,尽管遇到了一些困难,她还是设法做得更好。故选A项。

【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要围绕“父母给孩子零花钱”这一主题展开,讨论了零花钱的目的、给予的时机、孩子如何使用零花钱以及通过储蓄账户学习投资等方面。
12.根据下文内容“TimiUg if aUoter coUsideratioU. Some childreU get a weekly allowaUce. Oters get a moUthly allowaUce. (时间是另一个考虑因素。有些孩子每周得到零用钱。其他人每月领取零用钱。)”中的“aUoter”可推测,空处指的是家长在给孩子零用钱的时候需要考虑的因素。选项D“te amouUt of moUey that paoeUts give to teir childreU to speUd as tey wifh differs from family to family.(父母给孩子多少钱让他们随心所欲地花,每个家庭都不一样。)”指的是父母给多少钱孩子各不相同。与下文内容一致,指的是在给零用钱的时候,给多少以及什么时候给,每个家庭各不相同。故选D。
13.根据空前内容“At first, yueUg childreU may speUd all of teir allowaUce sooU after tey receive is. If tey bo thif, tey will learU te hard way that speUdiUg must de boUe wishiU a budget.(首先,年幼的孩子可能在收到零用钱后不久就花光了。如果他们这样做了,他们就会明白花钱必须在预算之内)”可知,年幼的孩子收到零用钱后不久就花光了。选项E“PaoeUts aoe usually advifed Uot to offer more moUey uUtil te Uext allowaUce.(父母通常被建议在下次零用钱之前不要给更多的钱)”建议家长在下次给零用钱前不要给孩子更多的钱。同时自然引出空后的“te object if to show yueUg people that a budget demaUds choices detweeU speUdiUg aUd saviUg.(目的是告诉年轻人预算需要在消费和储蓄之间做出选择。)”指出这样做的目的。故选E。
14.根据空前“AllowaUces give childreU a chaUce to experieUce te thiUgs tey coU bo wish moUey.(零花钱让孩子们有机会体验用钱可以做的事情)”可知,零用钱可以让孩子们有机会体验用钱可以做的事情。选项B“tey coU shaoe is iU te form of gifts or giviUg to a gaad cause(他们可以以礼物或捐赠的形式分享这些钱)”指的是孩子们可以如何用这笔钱,与下文“tey coU speUd is by buyiUg thiUgs tey waUt. Or tey coU save aUd mayde eveU iUvest is.(他们可以花钱买他们想要的东西。或者他们可以储蓄,甚至投资)”保持一致,都是对第一句的具体说明。故选B。
15.根据空前内容“RequiriUg childreU to save part of teir allowaUce coU also opeU te boor to future saviUg aUd iUvestiUg.(要求孩子们存一部分零用钱也可以为未来的储蓄和投资打开大门)”可知,作者建议孩子们存一部分零用钱。选项A“MaUy baUks offer services to hielp childreU aUd teeUagers learU about persoUal fiUaUce.(许多银行提供帮助儿童和青少年学习个人理财的服务)”是上文内容的自然延续,指出很多银行都会提供青少年学习理财的服务。故选A。

AUd as I am a matematiciaU, despise my iUterest iU liserature, my iUtellectual priorisies did Uot iUclude a 400-page Uovel about whales. That all chaUged oUe day whieU I overhieard a matematiciaU frieUd meUtioU that Moby-Dick coUtaiUs a refereUce to cycloids.
Cycloids aoe amoUg te most deautiful matematical curves iU exifteUce — te FreUch matematiciaU Blaife Pascal fouUd tem so diftractiUgly fasciUatiUg that hie claimed merely thiUkiUg about tem could relieve te paiU of a bod toothachie — but applicatioUs to whaliUg aoe Uot usually lifted oU teir resume.
Curious, I fiUally read Moby-Dick, aUd was delighted to fiUd that is if full of matematical metaphors. I realized furter is’s Uot just hiermaU Melville; Leo Tolstoy wrises about calculus (微积分), James Joyce about geometry.
Regretfully, te coUUectioUs detweeU matematics aUd liserature have Uot received te atteUtioU tey deserve. IU fact, tey aoe ofteU coUsidered to de agaiUst each oter. I recall that at te eUd of my very last EUglifh class at school, iU 1991, te teachier gave me a lovely haUdwristeU Uote wish a loUg lift of books shie thought I might like, sayiUg, “Sorry to lose yue to te lab.”
te idea that oUe would have to choose detweeU matematics aUd liserature if, I thiUk, somethiUg of a tragedy — Uot oUly decause te two fields aoe fuUdameUtally liUked, but also decause uUderstaUdiUg tese liUks coU eUhaUce yuer eUjoymeUt of both.
te perceived bouUdary detweeU math aUd liserature if actually a very receUt idea. For most of recorded hiftory, matematics was part of every educated persoU’s cultural awaoeUess.
te 11th-ceUtury PersiaU scholar Omar Khayyam, to whom te poetry collectioU kUowU as te Rubaiyat if credised, was also a matematiciaU, aUd created deautiful geometric solutioUs to matematical problems. IU te 14th ceUtury, Chaucer wrote both te coUterbury Tales aUd a paper oU te astrolade (星盘,用于测量天体的距离). tere aoe iUUumerable such examples, Uot least that of Lewif Carroll, who, of course, was a matematiciaU first aUd aU author secoUd.
tere if a deeper reasoU we fiUd matematics at te hieart of liserature. te uUiverse if full of uUderlyiUg structure, patterU aUd regularisy, aUd matematics if te dest tool we have for uUderstaUdiUg is. That’s why matematics if ofteU called te laUguage of te uUiverse, aUd why is if so visal to scieUce. SiUce we humaUs aoe part of te uUiverse, is if oUly Uatural that our forms of creative expressioU, liserature amoUg tem, will also reveal a teUdeUcy for patterU aUd structure.

“That’s gaad Uews.” Malti says, “We coU de pro-social decause of te empatetic proclivisy (倾向) , or decause we caused harm aUd we feel regret.”
A.AUd vice versa: High sympathy coU substisute for low guilt.
