Can ChatGPT Help Deliver Bad News?

As an oncologist(肿瘤科医生),I've delivered bad news countless times. It's always hard to find the right words.

One memory stays with me to this day. I was one of the trainees at a communication skills program. Professional actors came to us at various stages of their “illness." In small groups, we learned how to deliver bad news to them.

On the final day, there was an exam. My “patient” was a middle-aged man with terminal cancer(晚期癌).He had tried many different treatments, but nothing had worked. “I got this," I thought. Break the news gently but honestly to avoid confusion. Pause and look at him. “I can see that this must be difficult for you," I began. “I, too,wish things were different."

Above all, don ’t be clever. Just be honest and kind. The man started crying. My pulse (脉) quickened.

“I'm sorry.“ But I have so much to live for ...”We could try other treatments elsewhere. Stop, I can't say that.Silence. Complete silence.“And the holiday with my grand kids ...”Take this opportunity. Give him hope. Ask what he might do on the holiday.

The learning was there, but I was stuck for words. Thank God, l thought, the man wasn’t really sick.The feedback (反馈意见) was terrible. From the moment he met me, my “patient”felt bad because of my uneasiness (优虑不安).“How easy it is to destroy the human spirit (精神)!" I thought. Good communication is key to patient satisfaction. However, it’s surprising how little time is spent teaching doctors how to do it well.Training programs are rare.

But now we have ChatGPT. Will it help? To find out, I did a little experiment. “I'm an oncologist. Help me deliver bad news,” I typed in. “ What can I get wrong with my communication? I need tips on how to support my patients who are receiving bad news.” The answers were detailed and helpful. But my favorite line was, “Before we go on, I want to make sure you're comfortable having this conversation now. Make sure to stop me. We can take this at your pace(节奏).”

I was embarrassed. I couldn’t remember the last time I had said those words.

Sure, ChatGPT won 't offer a gentle touch or sense the tears. And some might warn against relying on it for human jobs. But until there are professional programs for all young doctors to learn how to deliver bad news, I’ll tell them to use ChatGPT' in times of need.

Electricity is the flow of electrical power or charge. It is a secondary energy source which means that we get it from the conversion (转化) of other sources of energy, l 1 coal, natural gas, oil, nuclear power and other natural sources, which are called primary sources. The energy sources we use to make electricity can be renewable (可再生的) or non-renewable, but electricity itself is neither renewable nor non-renewable.

Electricity is a basic part of nature and it is one of our most widely used forms of e 2 . Many cities and towns were built along waterfalls that turned water wheels to work. Thomas Edison helped c 3 everyone's life --- he perfected his invention --- the electric light bulb.

A 4 electricity is very important in our daily life, most of us hardly stop to think what life would be like w 5 electricity. Yet like air and water, we tend to take electricity for granted. Everyday, we use electricity to do many j 6 for us --- from lighting and heating / cooling our homes, to powering our televisions and computers. Electricity is a useful and convenient form of energy used in the applications of light, heat and p 7 .

People think that a good conversationalist should be an attentive listener. Ask questions that other people will enjoy answering. Encourage them to talk about themselves and what they have done. Diogenes, the Greek philosopher also said,“The reason why we have two ears and only one mouth is that we may listen m 1 and talk less!”

Try listening! Here are some e 2 about listening: (A neighbor of mine talking about her child) One evening last week I was sitting with Hannah, and she said to me,“You are a smart Mum!” And I said,“Why do you say that suddenly?”And she said,“Although you are always busy, you always stop what you are doing to listen to me.”“You have to force your buyer to talk, to enter the c 3 , if you expect to talk your way to successful sale, the only way you can do this is to stop talking yourself and listen.”(From How to Talk your Way to Success in Selling) Airline employees are taught how to listen to complaints. If they are able to show sympathy and to listen long enough, the passengers’ problems will begin to seem less i mportant.

Psychologists (心理学家) and d 4 also know that listening is part of their job. If they listen with care and concern the patient, they may even solve the problem! Here are some advice they give：

◆ S 5 the other person that you are listening.

◆ Look at them.

◆ Smile and nod quite often.

◆ S 6 your head or raise your eyebrows if you don't follow what they are saying.

◆ Don't tap your foot because this will show impatience.

◆ Don't look at your watch u 7 you really have to know the time.

1.) A postcode makes it easier for the post office to deliver letters.(邮政编码能使邮局在分发信件时更简便） Make+it+adj.+for sb. to do sth. It 在此处作形式宾语。 Eg: Yoga made it faster for Mrs White to lose weight. 2.)My ambition is to be an architect....我的愿望是成为一名建筑师 Sth.+ be +to do 动词不定式作表语 Eg：A nurse’s job is to look after sick people.护士的工作是照顾病人。 3.）I hope you will write to me soon...我希望你尽快给我回信... Hope vi.&vt. 希望；期待其后接不定式和that引导的从句。 Eg：I hope to hear from my brother soon.我希望很快能收到我哥哥的来信。 辨析hope，wish Hope一般侧重于表达有可能实现的愿望，意为“希望；期待”。Wish一般侧重于表达不大可能实现或根本不考虑是否能实现的愿望。 （1）hope和wish均接不定式作宾语。Wish只表示一种愿望，hope也表示愿望，表示对此有把握。 Eg：I hope to see you soon.我希望不久会见到你。 （2）hope和wish均可接that 引导的宾语从句，hope用陈述语气，表示很有把握实现或得到，而wish后面的宾语从句常用虚拟语气，表示一种无法实现的或不真实的愿望。 Eg;I wish I could fly like a bird.但愿我能像一只鸟一样飞翔。 （3）wish后通常接“宾语+不定式（宾补）”，而hope则不可以。 Eg：I wish you to come and join us in the singing.我希望你能来和我们一起唱歌。 （4）wish表示“祝愿”时，其后可接双宾语，而hope则不能加双宾语。 Eg：I wish you a happy New Year!祝您新年快乐！ 同义句转换 1. like/love/enjoy doing = be interested in + doing = be keen on + doing = show great interest

牛津版八年级英语暑假班—L1 The Zipper—名词—阅读A篇—词汇U1

Lesson 1 The zipper Let’s Read The zipper is a wonderful invention. How did people ever live without zippers? They are very common , so we forget that they are wonderful. They are very strong, but they open and close very easily. They come in many colours and sizes. In the 1890s, people in the United States wore high shoes with a long row of buttons. Clothes often had rows of buttons, too. People wished that clothes were easier to put on and take off. Whitcomb L.Judson, an engineer from the United States, invented the zipper in 1893. However, his zippers didn’t stay closed very well. This was embarrassing, and people didn’t buy many of them. Then Dr. Gideon Sundback from Sweden solved this problem. His zipper stayed closed. A zipper has three parts: 1. There are dozens of metal or plastic hooks (called teeth) in two rows. 2. These hooks are fastened to(固定于) two strips of cloth. The cloth strips are flexible. They bend easily. 3. A fastener（扣件）slides along and joins the hooks together. When it slides the other way, it takes the hooks apart. Dr. Sundback put the hooks on strips of cloth. The cloth holds all the hooks in place. They didn’t come apart very easily. This solved the problem of the first zippers. I. Vocabulary A. Match each word with the right picture. 1. button ______ 2. a strip of cloth ______ 3. bend ______ 4. zipper ______ A B. C.D B. Put the right word in each blank.

L11 Part 1 Intensive Reading Photographing Every Single Thing “If I had known how much work it would take, I might never have started," says Belgian photographer Barbara Iweins. One day in 2015.she decided to photograph all of her belongings and acted right away.Four years and 12.795 photos later, her task was complete. The decision came after Iweins had to move house for the eleventh time. She photographed room by room and drawer by drawer.Nothing was too dull to be included. Toilet rolls, coat hangers, keys,socks, toys and plates all made the cut.lweins admits that she and her three children are“extremely messy." In the process of photographing every single thing, the woman discovered many clothes that she had bought and then forgotten. “We're hiding our purchases," she said. “I was rediscovering skirts and thinking,“I've never worn this. It’s really nice and now I'm going to use it, ’As Iweins’ picture collection grew, she decided to sort them by color, material and frequency (频度) of use.

L1 Part1 Intensive Reading Can ChatGPT Help Deliver Bad News? As an oncologist(肿瘤科医生),I've delivered bad news countless times. It's always hard to find the right words. One memory stays with me to this day. I was one of the trainees at a munication skills program. Professional actors came to us at various stages of their “illness." In small groups, we learned how to deliver bad news to them. On the final day, there was an exam. My “patient” was a middleaged man with terminal cancer(晚期癌).He had tried many different treatments, but nothing had worked. “I got this," I thought. Break the news gently but honestly to avoid confusion. Pause and look at him. “I can see that this must be difficult for you," I began. “I, too,wish things were different." Above all, don ’t be clever. Just be honest and kind. The man started crying. My pulse (脉) quickened. “I'm sorry.“ But I have so much to live for ...”We could try other treatments elsewhere. Stop, I can't say that.Silence. plete silence.“And the holiday with my grand kids ...”Take this opportunity. Give him hope. Ask what he might do on the holiday. The learning was there, but I was stuck for words. Thank God, l thought, the man wasn’t really sick.The feedback (反馈意见) was terrible. From the moment he met me, my “patient”felt bad because of my uneasiness (优虑不安).“How easy it is to destroy the human spirit (精神)!" I thought. Good munication is key to patient satisfaction. However, it’s surprising how little time is spent teaching doctors how to do it well.Training programs are rare. But now we have ChatGPT. Will it help? To find out, I did a little experiment. “I'm an oncologist. Help me deliver bad news,” I typed in. “ What can I get wrong with my munication? I need tips on how to support my patients who are receiving bad news.” The answers were detailed and helpful. But my favorite line was, “Before we go on, I want to make sure you're fortable having this conversation now. Make sure to stop me. We can take this at your pace(节奏).” I was embarrassed. I couldn’t remember the last time I had said those words.
