Ⅵ.【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要以两种艺术形式——现实主义艺术和抽象艺术为主题。文章讲述了它们各自的特点,它们在表现形式方面的不同体现了艺术世界的多样性且它们都具有各自的美与价值。
1.E　根据后文“It’s more about expressing feelings, emotions and ideas.”并结合常识可知,该句的主题是抽象艺术,由此可推知,设空句的主题也应是抽象艺术。选项E(相比之下,抽象艺术较少关注写实)提出了抽象艺术的特点,同时in contrast与前文构成对比关系,前后衔接紧密。故选E项。
2.F　根据前文“Take the Mona Lisa, for example—it’s a realistic painting of a lady with a mysterious smile.”可知,设空句应对这个《蒙娜丽莎》的举例进行总结,并体现现实主义艺术的特点。选项F(像这样的艺术作品讲述了历史和日常生活的故事)中this指代前文的《蒙娜丽莎》,且讲述了现实主义艺术的特点,与后文“…helping us to learn about the past.”在内容上衔接紧密。故选F项。
3.G　根据前文“Unlike realistic art, abstract art is more about being creative.”可知,该段在讲述抽象艺术的特点。设空句承接前文,应是对抽象艺术的特点进行进一步解释。选项G(艺术家有超越现实生活表现的自由)为前文提及的“创造性”的进一步解释,同时呼应后文“They use shapes, colours and patterns to express feelings and ideas.”,前后衔接紧密。故选G项。
4.A　设空句为该段的首句,应是该段的主旨句。根据后文“Realistic art needs precision in drawing or sculpting to make things look real. Abstract art requires imagination to use shapes and colours in new ways.”可知,该段讲述的核心内容是两种艺术形式各自需要的技巧以及艺术家们对两种艺术形式的应用。选项A(这两种类型的艺术都需要技巧来完成)可总结该段的核心内容,可以作为该段的首句。故选A项。
5.D　根据前文“Together, the two kinds of art make the art world diverse and engaging.”可知,作为末尾部分,前文以及设空句应是对两种艺术形式的褒义总结。选项D(两种艺术创作方式都有各自的价值和美)与前文在句意上衔接紧密,可作为末尾句。故选D项。
Ⅶ.【文章大意】 本文是一篇新闻报道。文章讲述了苗族刺绣非物质文化遗产的传承人潘玉珍,她将苗族刺绣推广到国际市场,并希望将其传承给下一代。
1.an　考查冠词。此处泛指“一位传承者”,应用不定冠词,inheritor以元音音素开头,应用an。故填an。
2.from　考查介词。此处表示来自某个地方,应用介词from,构成动词短语come from,意为“来自”。故填from。
3.various/varied　考查形容词。此处修饰名词词组fashion show activities,应用形容词various/varied意为“各种各样的”,作定语。故填various/varied。
4.where　考查定语从句。此处引导限制性定语从句,先行词是fashion show activities,关系词代替先行词在从句中作地点状语,应用关系副词where引导。故填where。
5.particularly　考查副词。根据句意可知,此处使用副词particularly“尤其是”,强调at Christmas。故填particularly。
6.decorated　考查非谓语动词。decorate与notebook是逻辑上的动宾关系,应用过去分词作后置定语。故填decorated。
7.thought　考查动词时态。根据语境可知,句子陈述过去发生的事情,应用一般过去时。故填thought。
8.pride　考查名词。根据空前the和空后of可知,此处使用名词pride“骄傲”。故填pride。
9.are　考查动词时态和主谓一致。not only…but (also)…连接并列主语时,主谓一致遵循“就近一致”原则,谓语动词应与靠近的名词families保持主谓一致,且句子陈述目前事实,应用一般现在时,be动词使用are。故填are。
10.hoping　考查非谓语动词。hope与其逻辑主语是主谓关系,应用现在分词作状语。故填hoping。Period Four　Lesson 3 A Musical Genius(Reading)

Art comes in two main categories: realistic and abstract. Realistic art aims to show real-life scenes, people and objects exactly as they appear. It involves paying close attention to details, making things look like photographs. 1.　　　　. It’s more about expressing feelings, emotions and ideas.　
Realistic art is easy to understand. Viewers can easily recognize what is portrayed. Take the Mona Lisa, for example—it’s a realistic painting of a lady with a mysterious smile. 2.　　　　, helping us to learn about the past.
Unlike realistic art, abstract art is more about being creative. 3.　　　　. They use shapes, colours and patterns to express feelings and ideas. Abstract art means different things to different people. Some people enjoy trying to figure out what the artwork conveys.
4.　　　　. Realistic art needs precision in drawing or sculpting to make things look real. Abstract art requires imagination to use shapes and colours in new ways. Many artists are skilled in both. They create realistic pieces to demonstrate their technical skills and abstract ones to display their creativity.
As for personal preference, some people prefer the clear stories of realistic art while others are attracted to the mystery of abstract art, interpreting meanings in the shapes and forms. Together, the two kinds of art make the art world diverse and engaging. 5.　　　　.
A.Both types of art take skills to make
B.Photographs preserve faces of folks from long ago　
C.Grasping abstract art demands more artistic training　
D.Both ways of creating art have their own value and beauty
E.In contrast, abstract art focuses less on realistic appearances
F.Artworks like this tell stories about history and everyday life
G.Artists have the freedom to go beyond real-life representations

hear his orchestra—even if he is a musical genius 毕竟,一个听
不到自己的管弦乐队(演奏)的指挥,即使他是个音乐天才,又能有什么
用呢

not hear his orchestra是定语从句,修饰先行词a conductor; even if
引导的是让步状语从句。

与even though同义;even if或even though引导的让步状语从句可放
在主句前,亦可放在主句后。如:
Even if he had been operated on immediately, nothing could
have saved him.
即便立即给他动了手术,也挽救不了他的性命。

句型公式
独立主格结构
【句式点拨】
(1)句中his head buried in the score是独立主格结构,由“名词+过去
分词”构成,作状语,表示伴随情况或方式。
(2)独立主格结构不是句子,而是一个独立于句子成分之外的特殊的结
构形式,该结构在句中一般作状语,表示时间、条件、原因、伴随等。
(3)独立主格结构的构成:
如:
The man lay there,his hands trembling. (现在分词)
这个人躺在那儿,双手颤抖。
The plan successfully carried out, everything worked out
perfectly. (过去分词)
计划成功地实施了,一切都进行得很完美。

［温馨提示］独立主格结构通常可与“with+复合宾语”结构互换。如:
The test finished, we began our holiday.
=With the test finished, we began our holiday.
考试结束了,我们开始了我们的假期。
