Art Gallery of NSW(New South Wales) Exhibition
Louise Bourgeois: Has the Day Invaded the Night or Has the Night Invaded the Day
25 November 2023-28 April 2024
Day and night, love and rage, calm and chaos. Enter a world of emotional extremes in this exhibition of the art of Louise Bourgeois, one of the most influential artists of the past century. Born in Paris in 1911 and living and working in New York until her death in 2010, Bourgeois is well-known for her fearless exploration of human relationships across a seven-decade career.
Louise Bourgeois: Has the Day Invaded the Night or Has the Night Invaded the Day reveals the extraordinary reach and intensity of Bourgeois’ art, from unforgettable sculptures of the 1940s to her tough yet tender weaving works of the 1990s and 2000s. It also reveals the psychological tensions that powered her search, through a dramatic presentation in two contrasting exhibition spaces. Moving from the well-lit rooms of “Day” to the darkened area of “Night”, viewers will encounter more than 120 works, including many never seen before in Australia.
Tickets can be booked online via the exhibition or event page on our website, or in person at the welcome desk at the Art Gallery. Tickets cannot be exchanged, but if something unexpected happens that prevents you from attending, you can change the date of your reservation in your confirmation email.

Do I think the sky is falling Sort of.
My husband and I were recently in Egypt, where the temperature was a bit warm for my tiny princess self. So, we left Egypt. Back home, my dearest friends struggled with health stuff, with family craziness...
The game of life is hard, and a lot of us are playing hurt.
I ache for the world but naturally I’m mostly watching the Me Movie, where balance and strength are beginning to fail. What can we do as the creaking elevator of age slowly arrive The main solution is to get outside every day, ideally with friends. Old friends — even thoughts of them — are my comfort.
Recently I was walking along a beach with Neshama. We go back 50 years. She is 84, short and strong. Every so often, she bent down somewhat tentatively (踌躇地) and picked up small items into a small cloth bag.
“What are you doing ”
“I’m picking up micro litter. I try to help where I can.”
I reminded her of an old story. A great warhorse comes upon a tiny sparrow (麻雀) lying on its back with its feet in the air, eyes tightly shut with effort. The horse asks it what it’s doing.
“I’m trying to help hold back the darkness.”
The horse laughs loudly, “That is so funny. What do you weigh ”
And the sparrow replies, “One does what one can.”
This is what older age means. We do what we can.
We continued our walk. Neshama bent tentatively to pick up bits of litter and started to slip, but I caught her and we laughed. We are so physically vulnerable in older age, but friendship makes it all a rowing machine for the soul. We can take it, as long as we feel and give love, and laugh gently at ourselves as we fall apart. We know by a certain age the great lie in our life — if you do or achieve this or that, you will be happy and rich. No. Love and service make us rich.
24. What does the author say about her present life
A. She leads a balanced life.
B. She enjoys meeting old friends.
C. She is really into movies.
D. She struggles with family crises.
25. Why did the author mention the sparrow
A. To confirm Neshama’s fear. B. To offer her comfort.
C. To change Neshama’s mind. D. To show her approval.
26. What does the underlined “it” in the last paragraph refer to
A. Physical weakness. B. The great lie.
C. The rowing machine. D. The broken soul.
27. What largely determines happiness in older age according to the author
A. Achieving important life goals. B. Enjoying life as you can.
C. Living a life of love and service. D. Loving what is being done.
C
Bonobos often form friendly relationships with other bonobo s in separate social groups — the first time this has been seen in non-human primates (灵长类). This is in line with humans, but in contrast to chimpanzees, another primate, which frequently kill chimps in other groups. The findings challenge the idea that humans evolved (进化) from violent apes, says Surbeck at Harvard University. “This potential to form cooperative links between different groups is not uniquely human and it might have occurred earlier than we thought,” he says.
Many animals cooperate, but they seem to do so only with those within their social circle, or in-group. Hostile (敌对的) interactions between groups are common among animals, including chimpanzees, so scientists have often assumed that hostility towards other social groups in humans is natural, says Samuni, also at Harvard. However, humans also often cooperate with people in different social circles, for example, by trading or teaching.
Bonobos are one of our closest living relatives. They are less studied than chimpanzees, but are known to be more peaceful, says Surbeck. To learn more about interactions between groups, Surbeck and Samuni observed 31 adult bonobo s from two social groups in Congo over a two-year period. The pair documented 95 encounters between the groups, which represented about 20% of their total observation time. Unlike chimpanzees observed in previous studies, they showed cooperation with out-group members. In fact,10% of all mutual grooming (梳毛) and 6% of all food sharing occurred among members of different social groups.
While bonobo s that groomed others usually got an immediate benefit, food sharing rarely resulted in a gift in return. This suggests that their actions were “not just motivated by selfish interests or immediate rewards”, Surbeck and Samuni report.
Otten, a researcher from the Netherlands, finds the study “exciting”, especially as it “challenges the idea of human exceptionalism” with regard to out-group cooperation. Otten says the bonobo s that were most cooperative within their groups were the same ones that cooperated more with out-group members. This agrees with findings from humans. “Scholars used to believe that in-group ‘love’ goes together with out-group ‘hate’, but recent research suggests that often in-group cooperators are also out-group cooperators,” he says.
28. What is the focus of the study on bonobos
A. Their social behavior. B. Their survival skills.
C. Their evolutionary process. D. Their intelligence level.
29. What can be learnt about the bonobos
A. They are humans’ closest relatives.
B. They can be taught to cooperate.
C. They interact friendly beyond groups.
D. They share food for immediate rewards.
30. How was the study conducted
A. By comparing different primates.
B. By observing bonobos’ interactions.
C. By listing group members’ motivations.
D. By analysing statistics of previous studies.
31. How does Otten find the study
A. Forward-looking. B. Groundbreaking.
C. Controversial. D. One-sided.
D
Studies have shown the mere exposure effect, also referred to as the familiarity principle, inspires our decisions. It is a helpful psychological mechanism that helps us sustain our energy and focus our attention on other things. Getting used to new things takes effort and it can be exhausting. So unless we have a terrible experience, we are likely to buy from companies we’ve got used to. That is why companies spend so much money on advertising and marketing and why insurance companies openly charge existing customers more than new ones.
It’s not the case that we only desire things we already know. Some studies suggest when invited to share our preferences, we sometimes see less familiar options as more desirable. But when acting on that preference, we fall back to what we know. This might explain why sometimes the things we want and the things we do don’t quite match up. We might even return to companies that treated us poorly in the past or stay in bad relationships.
It’s easy to paint the familiarity principle as an enemy or something to battle as if it is something that holds us back from living our dreams. But this attitude might be overwhelming because it tends to encourage us toward big-picture thinking. Where we imagine that change requires a substantial dramatic swing that we don’t feel ready for. Some articles suggest the solution to familiarity frustration is complete exposure to novelty. While this can appear effective in the short run, we may only end up replacing one problem with another. It also risks overwhelm and burnout.
So what if we can work with the familiarity principle instead Familiarity is something we can learn to play with and enjoy. It is a setting for creativity and a pathway to expansion. We can broaden the zone of familiarity bit by bit. If we think of familiarity as something that can expand, we can consider changing the conditions in and around our lives to make more space for our preferences to take root and grow gently. From here, we will start to make decisions, drawing from an ever-deepening pool of valuable options.
32. What allows insurance companies to charge old customers more
A. The improved service. B. The advertising cost.
C. The familiarity principle. D. The law of the market.
33. What can be learned from paragraph 2
A. Our preferences affect our decisions.
B. Familiarity tends to generate disrespect.
C. The familiarity principle is a double-edged sword.
D. There can be a mismatch between desires and actions.
34. What is the author’s attitude towards the solution in some articles
A. Disapproving. B. Tolerant. C. Objective. D. Reserved.
35. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. Step Out Of Your Familiarity Zone
B. Spare A Thought For Your Preference
C. Gently Expand Your Familiarity Zone
D. Give Priority To The Mere Exposure Effect

How to Plot a Short Story
A great short story drops the reader into its world swiftly and holds their attention all the way through. 36 It can be as simple as knowing a few key moments you want to work your way toward. You’ll wind up with things you never imagined at the start. Follow these steps to plot your next story.
Brainstorm. You don’t need to have multiple short story ideas ready to go at a moment’s notice. 37 When that idea comes to you, sit down and flesh it out. Make note of any characters, settings, or bits of dialogue that you see.
38 The foundations of your main conflict or theme often form a short story’s rising action. To create tension and movement, you must know exactly what your character wants and what would prevent them from getting it. Conflicts can be internal or external, so imagine at what stage the reader will be meeting your character.
Create a brief outline. Sketch out (草拟) the flow of events your short story will contain, including interactions between characters and key moments. Write down identifying characteristics. But when it comes to drafting, pick your moments of backstory carefully. 39
Pick a point of view. Many short stories work well in first-person because of their brevity (简洁). 40 If your story needs to be told in second-person or third-person, that works, too. Regardless of which POV you choose, it’s usually best to center that narrative around one main character to ensure a consistent read on the situation at hand.
A. Select the right character.
B. Write out the central conflict.
C. All you need is one solid concept.
D. But there’s no hard and fast rule saying yours must.
E. Short stories allow the freedom to experiment because of their freestyle.
F. Plotting a short story doesn’t have to involve a detailed list of plot points.
G. To make the cut, a piece of information must contribute to the story’s central events.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Tom could communicate well with other people through the computer or even on the phone, but when it came to making public presentations, he was hopeless. He was aware that people at conferences would count up the times he said such things as “what I really meant to say was” when he got nervous.
Tom was an expert in Reality Robotics Company. His boss had asked him to do something that he was absolutely scared about. The next month he would be presenting on behalf of his company, and there would be a lot of people, and his boss, who had never attended Tom’s presentations, wanted to impress the audience with the innovative work that the company was doing. Tom knew his boss’s respect for him would plummet (坠落) if he said that he could not do it. So, he worked like crazy on the task.
One day, he felt a great need to relax. He turned on the TV. He laughed, and smiled through the first show, making him feel a little better. But it was the second show that really got to him, where the ventriloquist (腹语术者) Arthur worked with his dummy (假人). This really provided him with an inspiration for how he was going to make his much-feared presentation a success.
The next day, he organized a meeting of the people that had the skills he needed, and, of course, his boss. When he explained what he wanted to do, he could sense that everyone was with him on this plan. But a lot of work had to be done for the object of the plan to be completed.
It was the day of the presentation. Tom was somewhat nervous, but nowhere near to the extent that he usually was for just such a situation. And they had to get to their destination early, for what needed to be done had to be completed before the audience knew what was going on.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右：
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The much-anticipated presentation started.
Tom walked onto the stage, looking exactly the same as the presenter.

If you're a native English speaker with an appetite for adventure, join me and we'll see a blend of tradition, modernity and endless discoveries.

The much-anticipated presentation started. The presenter spoke in a calm and well-organized way, displaying amazing products of the innovative work of the company as well as how the goals had been achieved. He even mingled the speech with jokes from time to time, which aroused joyful laughter from the audience, who were all immersed in the refreshing atmosphere. At the end of the speech, the presenter said, “To conclude today’s presentation, we’ll invite a mysterious guest here. You can never guess who he is!”
Tom walked onto the stage, looking exactly the same as the presenter. Dumbfounded, the audience were all rooted to the spot and then couldn’t help exclaiming, “How could it be ” They thought they were twins at first, but when Tom explained what all this was about, the audience erupted with thunderous applause, all believing it was a “mission impossible”. To assure them, Tom and the dummy presenter performed a few more dialogues, which brought the presentation to its summit. What an innovation!

第25题 D 提及麻雀的寓言是为了表达认同Neshama捡拾垃圾这个小行为的价值。原文提到麻雀说 “One does what one can.” 与文章结尾相呼应，显示作者赞成尽自己所能去行动。
第26题 A 文中划线的 “it” 指代前文提到的 “We are so physically vulnerable in older age,” 说的是在老年时期，人们身体上的脆弱性。
第27题 C 最后一段提到 “Love and service make us rich.” 这表明作者认为在老年时期，爱与服务是决定幸福的重要因素，而不是取得生活目标。

第32题 C 保险公司能够对老客户收费更多的原因是“熟悉性原则”。文章中提到，除非我们有糟糕的体验，否则我们倾向于继续从我们习惯了的公司购买，这是为什么公司在广告和营销上花费如此多的资金的原因之一，以及保险公司可以公开向现有客户收取比新客户更多费用的原因。
第33题 D 第二段提到，有时我们想要的东西和我们实际做的事情可能不完全匹配，说明了存在欲望与行动之间的不一致性。
第34题 A 对于某些文章中提出的解决方案，作者持不赞成的态度。文章提到，有些建议说完全暴露于新奇是解决“熟悉性挫败感”的方法，作者认为这可能在短期内看起来有效，但最终可能只是用另一个问题替换了一个问题，还可能导致压倒性和疲劳。
第35题 C 最佳标题是“Gently Expand Your Familiarity Zone”，这反映了作者的主要观点，即逐步扩大我们的熟悉区域可以帮助我们享受创造性和成长的路径，而不是视熟悉性原则为障碍。

本文介绍了创作短篇小说的关键步骤，包括构思故事、确定核心冲突、草拟故事大纲、选择叙述视角等。强调了简洁的情节构思和关注故事核心，提出了一些有利于短篇小说创作的建议。
第36题 F 这句话接在一段讲述如何构思短篇小说的句子之后。前面提到的是，写好短篇小说的要点是迅速带领读者进入其世界，并一直保持他们的注意力。紧接着，这句话提供了一个关于如何构思情节的建议，说明情节构思并不需要包含一个详细的情节点列表。这暗示了一个更简单的构思方法，与前文的快速进入故事世界相吻合。
第37题 C 这句话后面讲述的是当一个想法出现时，如何坐下来把它发展成故事。因此，“All you need is one solid concept”是对如何开始写你的短篇小说故事头绪和灵感的推荐，它强调一个坚实的概念是开始的关键。
第38题 B 这句话是一段关于创造张力和运动的指导之后，指出要了解人物到底想要什么，以及是什么阻止了他们得到它。这一段结束时提到了读者将在什么阶段遇到角色。“Write out the central conflict”正是创建这种张力所需的步骤，强调要将故事的核心冲突写清楚。
第39题 G 这句话接在关于创建情节大纲，草拟事件流、人物互动和关键时刻之后。"To make the cut"意味着在编辑时要做出严格的选择，而这和紧随其后的写作建议一致，即如何选择背景故事的细节。这句话强调的是重要性，即任何信息必须对故事的中心事件做出贡献。
第40题 D 这句话紧跟在描述不同的叙述视角优点之后，第一人称经常因为其简洁性而适用于短篇小说。紧接着，“But there’s no hard and fast rule saying yours must”表达了对这个建议的延伸，意味着虽然第一人称常用，但并不是必须的，也可以选择其他视角。这符合之前提到的，根据故事需要选择合适的叙述视角。

本文主要讲述了作者作为冥想静修活动主持者，照顾来自世界各地的冥想爱好者，帮助他们适应静修生活。
第41题 D 后文提到“My role is to take care of these people during their stay here.”，说明这些人的身份是虔诚的信徒，因此选项D“devotees”（信徒）最符合语境。其他选项的意思分别是：A. employees员工；B. retirees退休人员；C. interviewees面试者，均不符合语境。
第42题 B 后文提到“but many have never been to India”，说明有些人之前来过印度，因此可以推断出他们可能是老朋友或者旧相识，即“old-times”。其他选项“passers-by”表示过路人，“trouble-makers”表示捣乱者，“peace-lovers”表示和平爱好者，均不符合语境。
第43题 B 句子中提到“My role is to take care of these people during their stay here.”，意思是“我的职责是在他们逗留期间照顾这些人。”因此，答案为B，即stay，意为逗留、停留。
第44题 C 在文中提到，大部分冥想静修期间，参与者们会处于沉默状态，因此答案为C，即silence（沉默）。
第45题 D 句子中提到的是“第一次经历沉默作为修行实践”，根据语境可以推断出这里指的是体验过沉默，因此选项D“experienced”（体验）是正确答案。
第46题 D 在句子中说到“我会是唯一一个他们被允许交谈的人”，表示他们被允许和我交谈，因此选项D“allowed”（允许）是正确答案。
第47题 A 这道题比较容易错选成C，be wanted to 的意思为被要求做某事，而不是想要去做某事。根据上文，我如此想要帮助他们表示，作者不仅有强烈的意愿去帮助他人，而且非常有能力，具备一定的能力（be equipped to）去帮助他们，所以这边应该选择A。
第48题 B 句子中提到“我所有的倾听技巧都是作为一位富有同情心的酒吧侍者学来的”，而B选项的“sympathetic”（富有同情心的）正是描述这种性格特点的词语，符合语境。其他选项如A的“talkative”（健谈的）、C的“aggressive”（好斗的）和D的“innocent”（无辜的）都与句子内容不符。
第49题 A 句子中提到“通过我一生中所发展的直觉来教会我如何读懂人们的感受”，而“读懂”在此处是指通过观察和感知来理解他人的情绪或心理状态，因此选项A“read”（读懂）最符合语境。选项B“record”（记录）和C“express”（表达）都不符合句意，而D“reveal”（揭示）虽然与理解有关，但更多用于揭示事实或真相，不适用于此处。
第50题 A 句子中提到“所有的倾听技巧和直觉都是为了帮助他们更容易地进入这个困难的任务”，表示这些技巧和直觉是为了达到某个目的，即“帮助他们更容易地进入任务”，因此选项A“so that”（以便，为了）是正确答案。选项B“now that”（既然），选项C“in case”（以防万一），选项D“even if”（即使）都不符合句意。
第51题 B 句子中提到“我帮助他们更容易地进入这个困难的任务”，表示这个任务是被承担或接受的，因此选项B“taken on”（承担，从事）最符合语境。
第52题 C 句子中提到“我对他们的勇敢感到惊奇”，而“wonder”意为惊奇、惊讶，符合语境。
第53题 C 句子中提到“这些人把他们的家庭和生活抛在了身后”，表示他们暂时离开了自己的家庭和日常生活，因此选项C“left behind”（留下，抛在后面）最符合语境。其他选项如“contributed to”（贡献）、“relied on”（依赖）和“prayed for”（祈祷）都与句意不符。
第54题 A 在文中这里的意思是“和一群完全陌生的印度人一起进行静默修行”，说明这些人是陌生的，因此选项A“strangers”（陌生人）最符合语境。
第55题 D 句子中提到“不是每个人都能在他们的一生中做到这样”，表示这种行为是在人的一生中发生的，因此选项D“lifetime”（一生）最符合语境。其他选项如“job”（工作）、“adventure”（冒险）和“dream”（梦想）都与句意不符。

62. asked 考察非谓语动词。本句可以理解为省略形式的定语从句，即when they are asked to，使用过去分词形式。
63. Concerning 考察非谓语动词。句中为主动含义“考虑到…”，使用现在分词。
64. exposure 考察词性转换。句中need sth.应使用名词形式。

The much-anticipated presentation started. The presenter spoke in a calm and well-organized way, displaying amazing products of the innovative work of the company as well as how the goals had been achieved. He even mingled the speech with jokes from time to time, which aroused joyful laughter from the audience, who were all immersed in the refreshing atmosphere. At the end of the speech, the presenter said, “To conclude today’s presentation, we’ll invite a mysterious guest here. You can never guess who he is!”
Tom walked onto the stage, looking exactly the same as the presenter. Dumbfounded, the audience were all rooted to the spot and then couldn’t help exclaiming, “How could it be ” They thought they were twins at first, but when Tom explained what all this was about, the audience erupted with thunderous applause, all believing it was a “mission impossible”. To assure them, Tom and the dummy presenter performed a few more dialogues, which brought the presentation to its summit. What an innovation!

W: Hi, thanks for having me on your show.
M: Thank you for joining us. So please tell us, why did you decide to open a cafe

May is now recognized as Asian American and Pacific Islander Month. Throughout the month of May, everyone can learn more about the efforts and achievements of Asian Americans and Pacific islanders. They have contributed to American history and culture, from the first Filipinos arriving in what is now known as California to the Chinese laborers completing the United States transcontinental railroad. Asian Americans are now the fastest growing Ethnic group in America.
