Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
　　（2024·徐州高二下学期期末）A famous fake copy of the Mona Lisa， so similar to Leonardo da Vinci’s masterpiece that some experts questioned whether the real copy was hanging in the Louvre， was purchased Friday for $3.4 million.
　　The winner of the online auction （拍卖）， a European collector， agreed to pay $3.4 million （￡2.9 million）， 10 to 15 times more than the auction house had estimated and the most ever paid for a fake Mona Lisa， Christie’s said.
　　“The record-setting price demonstrates the ongoing charm the Mona Lisa still has centuries after her creation，” said Pierre Etienne， a Christie’s specialist in Old Master paintings， in a statement.
　　The painting is named after Raymond Hekking， an antique （文物） seller in France who bought the painting from an antique store in 1953 for ￡3 — about ￡86， or $110， in 2020 — according to Christie’s.Hekking believed his painting was the original， and that a fake painting was returned to the Louvre after the original was stolen in 1914.While some art historians seriously considered Hekking’s arguments at the time， experts now believe it was painted by an unknown Italian artist in the 1600s， about a century after Da Vinci painted the real Mona Lisa.
　　In other Mona Lisa news， an online petition， “We want Jeff Bezos to buy and eat the Mona Lisa，” has gathered more than 9，000 signatures as of Friday.If Bezos obliged， his bid may break the world record for most expensive artwork， set when another Da Vinci painting， Salvator Mundi， sold in 2016 for $450 million at Christie’s in New York.
　　Mr Bezos， the Amazon founder， has a net worth upward of $200 billion.In 1962， according to Guinness World Records， the Mona Lisa was assessed at $100 million.In today’s dollars， that would roughly translate to over $850 million.Though Mr Bezos could theoretically afford it， the Mona Lisa isn’t for sale， and France likely wouldn’t be willing to give it up.
1.What was the auction house’s estimated price of the fake Mona Lisa？（　　）
A.No more than $200，000.
B.No more than $300，000.
C.No less than $300，000.
D.No less than $400，000.
2.What was Pierre Etienne’s attitude to the painting’s getting a record-setting price？（　　）
A.Positive. B.Skeptical.
C.Confused. D.Ambiguous.
3.What do we learn about the fake Mona Lisa？（　　）
A.It was stolen from the Louvre.
B.Hekking got it from an auction.
C.The winner collector didn’t know it was fake.
D.It was hard to distinguish between true and false.
4.What does the author think of selling Mona Lisa to Mr Bezos？（　　）
A.It wasn’t difficult.
B.It won’t happen indeed.
C.It was a brilliant idea.
D.It was a crazy thought.
B
　　It’s true that in today’s information overloaded age there are new challenges for creative workers.
　　For creators， the news and information cycle is so fast that to earn attention for your work suggests you have to keep up with it all.But the other side of that technological coin is that it’s easier than ever to make things and distribute them online.
　　Of course the entire planet does not care when yet more media is added to the world.But even 50 years ago， before the Internet， there were more films made each year than anyone could possibly see and more books published annually than anyone could read.
　　Before the web there was often no way to get your work distributed unless you had permission.Given the choice of A （depending on the approval of others to finish projects and share them with the world， but having fewer competitors） vs.B （being able to put anything into the world， but I have to compete with everyone else for attention）， I definitely choose B.At least I have a chance.At least I can compete， and use my skills at creation as an advantage.
　　Attention from fans matters more than the rest of the world.The most famous people in any media get most of the attention.But the fallacy is that you need to be in that top 1% or 5% to make a living.As a matter of fact， you simply need enough fans and attention to earn you enough money to make a living.
　　A creative life is not the safe and secure path.The more creative the life you choose， the more risk that will come with it.It can be wonderfully rewarding， but you are choosing to compete to earn a living， and even if you do everything right the chances are that you can still fail.I recommend doing it anyway， you will learn more about life and yourself by taking the challenging path， but you should do it with your eyes open.
5.In what way was the situation similar 50 years ago？（　　）
A.People needed to compete for attention.
B.Few people cared about creative works.
C.Many people engaged in creative work.
D.We had difficulty in spreading our works.
6.Why does the author choose B instead of A？（　　）
A.He/She is afraid of fierce competition.
B.He/She wants to have more competitors.
C.He/She is badly in need of more attention.
D.He/She values the opportunity to compete.
7.What does the underlined word “fallacy” in Paragraph 5 mean？（　　）
A.A new opinion. B.A wrong belief.
C.A traditional idea. D.A strange concept.
8.What attitude does the author take to a creative life？（　　）
A.Critical. B.Doubtful.
C.Supportive. D.Ambiguous.

　　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。
　　When Eliana Martin realised she didn’t have her purse with her after a trip to a Ralphs store， she tried to cancel her credit cards. Martin forgot the bag in a shopping cart once she arrived home. Chances were high she’d never see her stuff again. After all， how many people would track down the owner and return the bag without lifting a cent？ At least one， and Adrian Rodriguez is just the guy.
　　When Adrian Rodriguez， 17， found the purse with cash and credit cards in a shopping cart on Friday， he knew what to do next.
　　The teenager didn’t drop it off at the Chula Vista grocery store， hoping that the owner would return. Instead， he searched for a home address on the driver’s license that was inside the bag and drove to the front door.
　　The address led to Chula Vista resident Melina Marquez’s home but the purse belonged to her former roommate， Eliana Martin， who hadn’t updated her address since relocating. Neither were at home， but a relative of Marquez’s received the bag after Rodriguez buzzed the Ring camera.
　　“He had more than one option. He could have just kept it. He could have turned it into Ralphs store because it was a Ralphs store shopping cart， and with gas being so expensive， he still brought it over here，” said Marquez. “We wanted to find him so we could give him some money.”
　　With video of the teenager delivering the purse， Marquez and Martin took to social media asking people to help them identify him. Eventually， a friend of Rodriguez saw the recording and connected them.
　　“To their surprise， however， so many people started telling me， ‘When you find him， you need to give him some money to thank him，’” said Martin.
　　Martin’s friend， Melina Marquez， said，“We should find him， so we can give him a little gratitude.”

　　On Monday， Martin and Marquez were able to meet Adrian and thank him in person.Martin said she didn’t think she would recover her purse. “This is really a miracle. Thanks a million！” she said gratefully. With a shy smile， Adrian replied，“It’s nothing. If someone found my stuff， I know I’d want them to bring it back to me.” Taking out a 100-dollar bill from her purse， Martin offered to express her thanks. “This is a small token of my gratitude，” said Martin.
　　The money was a shock to Adrian， who wasn’t expecting a reward. “To me， I was just doing what my mom always told me when I was little： to do the right thing when nobody’s watching. It was just the right thing to do. I didn’t expect anything back， honestly，” he told Martin. In the end， Adrian suggested donating the money to a local charity， which both Martin and Marquez thought was a good idea. Needless to say， our society needs numerous people like Adrian. It is their selflessness and generosity that make our world a better place to live in.

ANCIENT CHINESE ART ON SHOW 　　The Richfield Museum of Fine Art is proud to present our new exhibition， “From Shang to Qing：Chinese Art Through the Ages.” Join us as we explore more than 3，000 years of wonderful art from the Middle Kingdom.From bronze bowls to ceramic vases， and jade sculptures to ink wash paintings， our goal is to display the Chinese artistic genius from ancient times. 　　[1]The highlight of this exhibition is the painting Clearing After Snow on a Mountain Pass， one of the great works of Tang Yin （1470－1524）.Born during the Ming Dynasty， Tang sought and failed to gain entry into the civil service， so he turned to painting instead.In time， he gained recognition as one of the greatest artists China has ever known.This painting， showing high mountains， trees， and houses covered in snow， was made with extraordinary skill.Though it is over 500 years old， it looks as fresh and full of life as the day it was created. [1]句中名词短语one of the great works of Tang Yin （1470－1524）作Clearing After Snow on a Mountain Pass的同位语。 　　Also of primary note is a collection of nearly 100 bronze objects from the Shang Dynasty （1600 BCE－1046 BCE）.While the artists who made these great works are not known， they showed great skill in creating these beautiful pieces.Some of the items on display are thought to have come from the collection of Emperor Qianlong （1711－1799）， a great admirer of Shang Dynasty bronze. 　　Finally， we have many fine examples of Tang Dynasty （618－907） sculptures.Most of these are of Buddhist origin.Even though Buddhism entered China much earlier， it did not really begin to show expansion until the seventh century.During this same period， trade along the Silk Road also boomed.Chinese sculpture thus found itself highly influenced by Buddhist art brought from India and Central Asia through the Silk Road.These works were intended to spread Buddhism and they are of exceptional beauty and quality.[2]Looking at the faces of the figures in these sculptures， one sees the faces of the past.History is brought to life. [2]本句是一个动词-ing短语作状语的简单句。 This is just a small taste of what is in store for you in this exhibition.We guarantee that “From Shang to Qing：Chinese Art Through the Ages” will transport you to another time with its amazing collection of works. 　　“From Shang to Qing：Chinese Art Through the Ages” will run until November 25. Opening hours are from 9：00 a.m.to 5：00 p.m.， from Tuesday to Sunday （the museum is closed on Mondays）.No one will be admitted into the exhibition after 4：30 p.m. 　　Admission：$10 for adults； $8 for students； $5 for children under 12； free for children under 5. No photos or food and drink are allowed in the museum. 学语言： 1.详略得当的描写手法 文中第二至四段的介绍较为详细，这是因为所提及的中国古代艺术藏品是展览中最具吸引力的。为了帮助其他国家的观众更好地了解和品鉴中国古代艺术，提供一些文化和历史背景信息很有必要。 2.准确使用人称和语气 文章使用了第一人称的口吻， 如第一段中present our new exhibition显得更加亲切，能拉近与读者的距离。 3.巧妙地使用语态 文中很多句子都使用了被动语态，如第三段中are not known， are thought等，这是为了体现内容的客观性、真实性，以增强文章的说服力。 4.特殊句式的使用 文中有不少刻画艺术品细节的宣传句式，如第二段最后一句，这些句式值得学生记忆、模仿和运用。 学结构： 1.阅读文本是一篇有关中国古代艺术藏品展览信息的推介性文章，属于应用文体。 2.阅读文本的内容大致可分为四个部分： （1）介绍此次展览的主题和展品来源（第一段）； （2）引导观众关注展览的主要亮点（第二至四段）； （3）总结展览的目的和意义（第五段）； （4）提供有关展览的实用信息，包括展览开放时间、售票信息以及观展注意事项等（第六至九段）。

中国古代艺术展
　　里奇菲尔德艺术博物馆隆重推出我们的新展——“从商朝到清朝：中国历代艺术”。加入我们吧，一起来探索来自“中央王国”三千多年的精彩纷呈的艺术。无论从青铜碗到陶瓷花瓶，还是从玉雕到水墨画，我们的目的是展示古代中国的艺术天赋。
　　本次展览的亮点是唐寅（1470年－1524年）著名的画作之一——《函关雪霁图》。唐寅生于明朝，一心想要踏入仕途而不得，因此转而从事绘画。最终，他被公认是中国历史上最伟大的艺术家之一。这幅作品呈现了白雪覆盖下的高山、树木和房屋，技法超乎寻常。虽然已有500多年之久，但它看起来仍然和创作的那一天一样栩栩如生、充满活力。
　　同样十分重要的（看点）是一组近百件商代（公元前1600年－公元前1046年）青铜器藏品。尽管制作这些青铜器的艺术家不为人所知，但是在创作这些精美器物的过程中，他们展现出了非凡的技艺。部分展品被认为是来自对商朝青铜器大为赞赏的乾隆皇帝（1711年－1799年）的收藏品。
　　最后，我们还有许多唐朝（618年－907年）雕塑作品。作品大多数源于佛教。尽管佛教传入中国为时更早，但直到七世纪它才真正开始广泛传播。同一时期，丝绸之路沿线的贸易也蓬勃发展。中国雕塑因此深受经丝绸之路从印度和中亚传来的佛教艺术的影响。这些作品的目的是传播佛教，它们都精美绝伦，品质非凡。看着这些雕塑中人物的脸部，（你）可以看到过去的面貌。历史“复活”了。
　　这只是该展览供您参观的一小部分。我们保证“从商朝到清朝：中国历代艺术”展览将通过其精彩的藏品带你进入另一个时代。
　　“从商朝到清朝：中国历代艺术”展览将持续至11月25日。
　　开馆时间为周二至周日（博物馆每周一闭馆）上午9时至下午5时。下午4：30后停止入馆。
　　门票：成人10美元；学生8美元；12岁以下儿童5美元；5岁以下儿童免费。
　　博物馆内禁止拍照、携带食物和饮料。

Hello， everybody.Today I’d like to share with you something about John Audubon.John was born on 26 April 1785.He spent much of his childhood in France where he spent many hours each day outdoors painting pictures.At the age of 18， he moved to the United States.Well， actually， John began his life in the US as a businessman.However， instead of taking care of his business， John was often off exploring nature.At first， John spent his time hunting for fun.Then he found that the animals around were very beautiful， and he particularly enjoyed observing the birds he saw.He began studying them， trying to learn the differences between the birds and noticing their different behaviours.
Therefore， he painted the birds he observed a lot.In 1819， John realised that he didn’t have enough money to pay his bills.He was very upset that he couldn’t earn enough money to support his family.So he spent time improving his painting skills and began to sell his paintings.He discovered that he could earn some money while doing something he really enjoyed.We are lucky now to have so many paintings of American birds by John Audubon.

Hello， everybody.Today I’d like to share with you something
about John Audubon.John was born on 26 April 1785.He spent much of
his childhood in France where he spent many hours each day outdoors
painting pictures.At the age of 18， he moved to the United States.Well，
actually， John began his life in the US as a businessman.However，
instead of taking care of his business， John was often off exploring
nature.At first， John spent his time hunting for fun.Then he found that
the animals around were very beautiful， and he particularly enjoyed
observing the birds he saw.He began studying them， trying to learn the
differences between the birds and noticing their different behaviours.
Therefore， he painted the birds he observed a lot.In 1819， John
realised that he didn’t have enough money to pay his bills.He was very
upset that he couldn’t earn enough money to support his family.So he
spent time improving his painting skills and began to sell his paintings.He
discovered that he could earn some money while doing something he really
enjoyed.We are lucky now to have so many paintings of American birds by
John Audubon.

ANCIENT CHINESE ART ON SHOW
The Richfield Museum of Fine Art is proud to present our new
exhibition， “From Shang to Qing：Chinese Art Through the Ages.”
Join us as we explore more than 3，000 years of wonderful art from the
Middle Kingdom.From bronze bowls to ceramic vases， and jade
sculptures to ink wash paintings， our goal is to display the Chinese
artistic genius from ancient times.
[1]The highlight of this exhibition is the painting Clearing After
Snow on a Mountain Pass， one of the great works of Tang Yin （1470－
1524）.Born during the Ming Dynasty， Tang sought and failed to gain
entry into the civil service， so he turned to painting instead.In time， he
gained recognition as one of the greatest artists China has ever known.This
painting， showing high mountains， trees， and houses covered in
snow， was made with extraordinary skill.Though it is over 500 years
old， it looks as fresh and full of life as the day it was created.
[1]句中名词短语one of the great works of Tang Yin （1470－
1524）作Clearing After Snow on a Mountain Pass的同位语。
　　Also of primary note is a collection of nearly 100 bronze objects
from the Shang Dynasty （1600 BCE－1046 BCE）.While the artists
who made these great works are not known， they showed great skill in
creating these beautiful pieces.Some of the items on display are thought to
have come from the collection of Emperor Qianlong （1711－1799）， a
great admirer of Shang Dynasty bronze.
Finally， we have many fine examples of Tang Dynasty （618－
907） sculptures.Most of these are of Buddhist origin.Even though
Buddhism entered China much earlier， it did not really begin to show
expansion until the seventh century.During this same period， trade along
the Silk Road also boomed.Chinese sculpture thus found itself highly
influenced by Buddhist art brought from India and Central Asia through the
Silk Road.These works were intended to spread Buddhism and they are of
exceptional beauty and quality.[2]Looking at the faces of the figures in
these sculptures， one sees the faces of the past.History is brought to life.
[2]本句是一个动词-ing短语作状语的简单句。
This is just a small taste of what is in store for you in this
exhibition.We guarantee that “From Shang to Qing：Chinese Art
Through the Ages” will transport you to another time with its amazing
collection of works.
“From Shang to Qing：Chinese Art Through the Ages” will run
until November 25.
Opening hours are from 9：00 a.m.to 5：00 p.m.， from Tuesday
to Sunday （the museum is closed on Mondays）.No one will be admitted
into the exhibition after 4：30 p.m.
Admission：$10 for adults； $8 for students； $5 for children under
12； free for children under 5.
No photos or food and drink are allowed in the museum.
Step 2　析写作手法
学语言：
1. 详略得当的描写手法
文中第二至四段的介绍较为详细，这是因为所提及的中国古代艺术
藏品是展览中最具吸引力的。为了帮助其他国家的观众更好地了解
和品鉴中国古代艺术，提供一些文化和历史背景信息很有必要。
2. 准确使用人称和语气
文章使用了第一人称的口吻， 如第一段中present our new exhibition
显得更加亲切，能拉近与读者的距离。
3. 巧妙地使用语态
文中很多句子都使用了被动语态，如第三段中are not known， are
thought等，这是为了体现内容的客观性、真实性，以增强文章的说
服力。
4. 特殊句式的使用
文中有不少刻画艺术品细节的宣传句式，如第二段最后一句，这些
句式值得学生记忆、模仿和运用。
学结构：
1. 阅读文本是一篇有关中国古代艺术藏品展览信息的推介性文章，属
于应用文体。
2. 阅读文本的内容大致可分为四个部分：
（1）介绍此次展览的主题和展品来源（第一段）；
（2）引导观众关注展览的主要亮点（第二至四段）；
（3）总结展览的目的和意义（第五段）；
（4）提供有关展览的实用信息，包括展览开放时间、售票信息以
及观展注意事项等（第六至九段）。

中国古代艺术展
　　里奇菲尔德艺术博物馆隆重推出我们的新展——“从商朝到清
朝：中国历代艺术”。加入我们吧，一起来探索来自“中央王国”三
千多年的精彩纷呈的艺术。无论从青铜碗到陶瓷花瓶，还是从玉雕到
水墨画，我们的目的是展示古代中国的艺术天赋。
　　本次展览的亮点是唐寅（1470年－1524年）著名的画作之一——
《函关雪霁图》。唐寅生于明朝，一心想要踏入仕途而不得，因此转
而从事绘画。最终，他被公认是中国历史上最伟大的艺术家之一。这
幅作品呈现了白雪覆盖下的高山、树木和房屋，技法超乎寻常。虽然
已有500多年之久，但它看起来仍然和创作的那一天一样栩栩如生、
充满活力。
　　同样十分重要的（看点）是一组近百件商代（公元前1600年－公
元前1046年）青铜器藏品。尽管制作这些青铜器的艺术家不为人所
知，但是在创作这些精美器物的过程中，他们展现出了非凡的技艺。
部分展品被认为是来自对商朝青铜器大为赞赏的乾隆皇帝（1711年－
1799年）的收藏品。
　　最后，我们还有许多唐朝（618年－907年）雕塑作品。作品大多
数源于佛教。尽管佛教传入中国为时更早，但直到七世纪它才真正开
始广泛传播。同一时期，丝绸之路沿线的贸易也蓬勃发展。中国雕塑
因此深受经丝绸之路从印度和中亚传来的佛教艺术的影响。这些作品
的目的是传播佛教，它们都精美绝伦，品质非凡。看着这些雕塑中人
物的脸部，（你）可以看到过去的面貌。历史“复活”了。
　　这只是该展览供您参观的一小部分。我们保证“从商朝到清朝：
中国历代艺术”展览将通过其精彩的藏品带你进入另一个时代。
　　“从商朝到清朝：中国历代艺术”展览将持续至11月25日。
　　开馆时间为周二至周日（博物馆每周一闭馆）上午9时至下午5
时。下午4：30后停止入馆。
　　门票：成人10美元；学生8美元；12岁以下儿童5美元；5岁以下
儿童免费。
　　博物馆内禁止拍照、携带食物和饮料。

　　（2024·徐州高二下学期期末）A famous fake copy of the Mona
Lisa， so similar to Leonardo da Vinci’s masterpiece that some experts
questioned whether the real copy was hanging in the Louvre， was
purchased Friday for $3.4 million.
　　The winner of the online auction （拍卖）， a European collector，
agreed to pay $3.4 million （￡2.9 million）， 10 to 15 times more than
the auction house had estimated and the most ever paid for a fake Mona
Lisa， Christie’s said.
　　“The record-setting price demonstrates the ongoing charm the Mona
Lisa still has centuries after her creation，” said Pierre Etienne， a
Christie’s specialist in Old Master paintings， in a statement.
　　The painting is named after Raymond Hekking， an antique （文
物） seller in France who bought the painting from an antique store in
1953 for ￡3 — about ￡86， or $110， in 2020 — according to
Christie’s.Hekking believed his painting was the original， and that a
fake painting was returned to the Louvre after the original was stolen in
1914.While some art historians seriously considered Hekking’s
arguments at the time， experts now believe it was painted by an unknown
Italian artist in the 1600s， about a century after Da Vinci painted the real
Mona Lisa.
　　In other Mona Lisa news， an online petition， “We want Jeff
Bezos to buy and eat the Mona Lisa，” has gathered more than 9，000
signatures as of Friday.If Bezos obliged， his bid may break the world
record for most expensive artwork， set when another Da Vinci painting，
Salvator Mundi， sold in 2016 for $450 million at Christie’s in New
York.
　　Mr Bezos， the Amazon founder， has a net worth upward of $200
billion.In 1962， according to Guinness World Records， the Mona Lisa
was assessed at $100 million.In today’s dollars， that would roughly
translate to over $850 million.Though Mr Bezos could theoretically afford
it， the Mona Lisa isn’t for sale， and France likely wouldn’t be
willing to give it up.

丽莎》的复制品，在法国巴黎佳士得拍卖行以340万美元这一创纪录
的价格拍出。
1. What was the auction house’s estimated price of the fake Mona Lisa？
（　　）
A. No more than $200，000.
B. No more than $300，000.
C. No less than $300，000.
D. No less than $400，000.
解析：　细节理解题。根据第二段可知，这幅《蒙娜丽莎》的复
制品拍得340万美元，比拍卖行的估价高出了10到15倍。这说明拍
卖行的估价大约是20到30万美元。
2. What was Pierre Etienne’s attitude to the painting’s getting a record-
setting price？（　　）
A. Positive. B. Skeptical.
C. Confused. D. Ambiguous.
解析：　观点态度题。根据第三段可知，Pierre Etienne认为，
《蒙娜丽莎》的复制品能被高价拍卖，说明历经几个世纪，《蒙娜
丽莎》的魅力依然不减。
3. What do we learn about the fake Mona Lisa？（　　）
A. It was stolen from the Louvre.
B. Hekking got it from an auction.
C. The winner collector didn’t know it was fake.
D. It was hard to distinguish between true and false.
解析：　推理判断题。根据第四段可知，Raymond Hekking坚持
认为自己拥有的《蒙娜丽莎》是真迹，卢浮宫的是赝品；而这一说
法当时被很多艺术家和历史学家认真考虑。
4. What does the author think of selling Mona Lisa to Mr Bezos？
（　　）
A. It wasn’t difficult.
B. It won’t happen indeed.
C. It was a brilliant idea.
D. It was a crazy thought.

It’s true that in today’s information overloaded age there are new
challenges for creative workers.
For creators， the news and information cycle is so fast that to earn
attention for your work suggests you have to keep up with it all.But the
other side of that technological coin is that it’s easier than ever to make
things and distribute them online.
Of course the entire planet does not care when yet more media is
added to the world.But even 50 years ago， before the Internet， there
were more films made each year than anyone could possibly see and more
books published annually than anyone could read.
Before the web there was often no way to get your work distributed
unless you had permission.Given the choice of A （depending on the
approval of others to finish projects and share them with the world， but
having fewer competitors） vs.B （being able to put anything into the
world， but I have to compete with everyone else for attention）， I
definitely choose B. At least I have a chance.At least I can compete， and
use my skills at creation as an advantage.
Attention from fans matters more than the rest of the world.The most
famous people in any media get most of the attention.But the fallacy is that
you need to be in that top 1% or 5% to make a living.As a matter of fact，
you simply need enough fans and attention to earn you enough money to
make a living.
A creative life is not the safe and secure path.The more creative the
life you choose， the more risk that will come with it.It can be
wonderfully rewarding， but you are choosing to compete to earn a
living， and even if you do everything right the chances are that you can
still fail.I recommend doing it anyway， you will learn more about life
and yourself by taking the challenging path， but you should do it with
your eyes open.
语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。如今是注意力经济时代，那些从事
创造性工作的自由职业者面临着更加激烈的竞争和挑战。

创造性工作的自由职业者面临着更加激烈的竞争和挑战。
5. In what way was the situation similar 50 years ago？（　　）
A. People needed to compete for attention.
B. Few people cared about creative works.
C. Many people engaged in creative work.
D. We had difficulty in spreading our works.
解析：　推理判断题。根据第二段可知，当今时代，从事创造性
工作者必须努力去争取人们的注意；第三段指出，其实50年前也是
这样：作品数量总是超过人们的需要。也就是说，人们需要争夺注
意力。
6. Why does the author choose B instead of A？（　　）

7. What does the underlined word “fallacy” in Paragraph 5 mean？
（　　）
A. A new opinion. B. A wrong belief.
C. A traditional idea. D. A strange concept.
解析：　词义猜测题。根据第五段最后一句可知，你只需要有足
够的粉丝和注意力就可以维持生活。也就是说，你不需要成为那顶
尖的1%或5%。由此可知，前面的说法作者认为是错误的。
8. What attitude does the author take to a creative life？（　　）
A. Critical. B. Doubtful.
C. Supportive. D. Ambiguous.

Ⅳ.读后续写
　　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。
　　When Eliana Martin realised she didn’t have her purse with her after
a trip to a Ralphs store， she tried to cancel her credit cards. Martin forgot
the bag in a shopping cart once she arrived home. Chances were high
she’d never see her stuff again. After all， how many people would track
down the owner and return the bag without lifting a cent？ At least one，
and Adrian Rodriguez is just the guy.
　　When Adrian Rodriguez， 17， found the purse with cash and credit
cards in a shopping cart on Friday， he knew what to do next.
　　The teenager didn’t drop it off at the Chula Vista grocery store，
hoping that the owner would return. Instead， he searched for a home
address on the driver’s license that was inside the bag and drove to the
front door.
　　The address led to Chula Vista resident Melina Marquez’s home but
the purse belonged to her former roommate， Eliana Martin， who
hadn’t updated her address since relocating. Neither were at home， but
a relative of Marquez’s received the bag after Rodriguez buzzed the Ring
camera.
　　“He had more than one option. He could have just kept it. He could
have turned it into Ralphs store because it was a Ralphs store shopping
cart， and with gas being so expensive， he still brought it over here，”
said Marquez. “We wanted to find him so we could give him some
money.”
　　With video of the teenager delivering the purse， Marquez and Martin
took to social media asking people to help them identify him.
Eventually， a friend of Rodriguez saw the recording and connected them.
　　“To their surprise， however， so many people started telling me，
‘When you find him， you need to give him some money to thank
him，’” said Martin.
　　Martin’s friend， Melina Marquez， said，“We should find
him， so we can give him a little gratitude.”
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式作答。
　　On Monday， Martin and Marquez were able to meet Adrian and

参考范文：
　　On Monday， Martin and Marquez were able to meet Adrian and
thank him in person.Martin said she didn’t think she would recover her
purse. “This is really a miracle. Thanks a million！” she said
gratefully. With a shy smile， Adrian replied，“It’s nothing. If
someone found my stuff， I know I’d want them to bring it back to
me.” Taking out a 100-dollar bill from her purse， Martin offered to
express her thanks. “This is a small token of my gratitude，” said
Martin.
　　The money was a shock to Adrian， who wasn’t expecting a
reward. “To me， I was just doing what my mom always told me when I
was little： to do the right thing when nobody’s watching. It was just the
right thing to do. I didn’t expect anything back， honestly，” he told
Martin. In the end， Adrian suggested donating the money to a local
charity， which both Martin and Marquez thought was a good idea.
Needless to say， our society needs numerous people like Adrian. It is
their selflessness and generosity that make our world a better place to live
in.
