the animal itself.He was a frequent visitor to the royal stables and even
moved in to live with the stable workers for quite some time.The horses，
whether resting or on the move ， offered him plenty of inspiration
.[5]The more time he spent observing these animals， the more his
understanding of them grew.
Day after day ， Han Gan painted the horses， his brush presenting
every detail that he saw with his own eyes.
　　It is said that when the Emperor asked Han Gan to take a master of
horse painting as his teacher， the artist replied， “I have my own
teachers， Your Majesty .All the horses in your stables are my very
teachers.”
　　[6]Those who saw Han Gan’s horse paintings all sang high praises

【参考译文】
韩干和他的马
　　好一匹骏马！尽管已经走过千年的时光，我们还能从它炽烈
的双眼、裸露的牙齿以及舞动的马蹄中感觉到力量。《照夜白
图》，现收藏于纽约大都会艺术博物馆，被认为是中国艺术史上
最为重要的骏马图之一。它的创作者——画家韩干以其神形兼备
的画马技术闻名于世。
　　韩干出生于初唐时期的一个贫苦家庭，年少时不得不在酒肆帮工
来维持家庭生计。有一次，他被派至诗人王维家收酒钱，绘画才能因
机缘巧合被发现。韩干在门口等候时，他用一根木棒在地上画画，正
好被王维看到。王维决定资助这位年轻人学画，并将他引荐给了一位
绘画大师。韩干本来就有天赋，加之多年勤学苦练，最终被召入皇宫
为唐玄宗效力。
　　唐代的皇帝十分喜爱骏马，马因此成为画家笔下的常见主题。当
时，学习画马最普遍的方法是临摹前人留下的画作。但韩干却采用了
不同的方法——他去观察真的马。他是皇家马厩的常客，甚至直接搬
到马厩中与马夫同住了好长一段时间。无论是静止休息的马还是动态
行进的马，都给韩干带来很多灵感。他观察这些动物的时间越长，他
就越了解它们。韩干日复一日地练习画马，用画笔把眼睛观察到的每
一处细节都呈现了出来。
　　据说，皇帝曾让他选一位画马大师为师，韩干却回答：“我有自
己的老师，陛下。您马厩里所有的马都是我的老师。”
　　看过韩干的骏马图的人都对他独特的技艺赞赏有加，称他的马
“跃然纸上”。就连宋朝的著名诗人苏轼都曾赞扬过韩干画马的卓越
才能，他在诗中写道：“韩生画马真是马。”

Ⅰ.阅读理解

　　What is the place of art in a culture of inattention？ Recent visitors to
the Louvre report that tourists can now spend only a minute in front of the
Mona Lisa before being asked to move on. Much of that time， for some
of them， is spent taking photographs not even of the painting but of
themselves with the painting in the background.
　　One view is that we have made tourism and gallery-going so easy that
we have made it effectively impossible to appreciate what we’ve
travelled to see. In this society， experience becomes goods like any
other. There are queues to climb Everest as well as to see famous
paintings. Thus， leisure is considered as hard labour rather than
relaxation.
　　In the rapidly developing society， what gets lost is the quality of
looking. Consider an extreme example， the late philosopher Richard
Wollheim. When he visited the Louvre he could spend as much as four
hours sitting before a painting. The first hour， he claimed， was
necessary for incorrect impression to be removed. It was only then that the
picture would begin to disclose itself. This seems unthinkable today， but
it is still possible to organise. Even in the busiest museums there are many
rooms and many pictures worth hours of contemplation （沉思） which
the crowds largely ignore.
　　Marcel Proust， another lover of the Louvre， wrote： “It is only
through art that we can escape from ourselves and know how another
person sees a universe which is not the same as our own and whose
landscapes would otherwise have remained as unknown as any there may
be on the moon.” If any art remains worth seeing， it must lead us to
such escapes. But a minute in front of a painting in a hurried， harried
（烦扰） crowd won’t do that.

　　From woodworker to great artist — this was the course of Qi
Baishi’s life.He achieved success by coupling talent with hard work.In
1953， he was honoured with the title “People’s Artist” by the
Chinese government.
　　For most of the general public， his masterpieces are his paintings of
shrimps.At the beginning， he painted these small animals by following
ancient models.Later， he developed a personal style by using shades of
black ink to show a shrimp’s body， giving it an almost real-life
feel.Besides， his paintings of flowers and vegetables， indicating rich
harvests （丰收）， are famous as well.People love these nature-based
paintings because the works remind them of the countryside and of their
hometowns.The dove is another common image in Qi’s art during his
later years， showing his wish for world peace.
　　Be it landscapes， birds， flowers or figures， Qi’s paintings are
rich in expression and detail.Using heavy ink， bright colours and
energetic strokes （笔画）， he created works in a fresh and lively
manner， expressing his love of nature and life.His art reflects an
international trend in modern art at the time， yet he expressed it in a
typical Chinese way.
　　Qi was hard-working even in his 70s.He kept looking for higher
goals， especially as he got older.While many other Chinese artists retire
from public life at an old age， Qi actively took on more social
responsibilities.He said， “I love my hometown， my country and all
the lives there.In recent years， I have realised that what I run after is
world peace.”
　　In 1956， he was awarded the International Peace Prize by the World
Peace Council.

　　Mona Lisa is the famous Leonardo da Vinci painting of a woman with
a mysterious smile. This week， the painting gave up a secret.
　　Scientists using X-rays to examine the chemical structure of a small
part of the painting discovered a technique Leonardo used in the work. An
oil paint used for it was a special， new chemical mixture， which
suggests that the Italian artist was in an experimental mood when he
worked on the painting in the 16th century.
　　“He loved to experiment， and each of his paintings is completely
different technically，”said Victor Gonzalez， a chemist who has studied
the chemical element of several works by Leonardo and other artists. The
researchers found a rare lead compound （铅化合物） —
plumbonacrite， in Leonardo’s first layer of paint. The discovery proved
that da Vinci most likely used lead oxide to thicken and help dry his paint.
The paint in the study is about the thickness of a human hair， lying in the
top right area of the painting.
　　The scientists looked into its atomic structure using X-rays， moving
particles at the speed of light， permitting researchers to look deeper into
the paint structure. “ Plumbonacrite is really a fingerprint of his recipe，
as it’s the first time we can chemically confirm it，” Gonzalez said.
　　Dutch artist Rembrandt may have used a similar mixture when he was
painting in the 17th century. Gonzalez and other researchers have found
plumbonacrite in his work， too. Leonardo is thought to have put lead
oxide powder， which has an orange colour， in the oil to make it thicker
and dry faster. “What you will get is an oil that has a very nice golden
colour，” Gonzalez said. “It flows more like honey.”
　　But Mona Lisa — said by the Louvre to be a portrait （肖像） of
Lisa Gherardini， the wife of a Florentine silk businessman — and
additional works by Leonardo still have other secrets to tell. “What we
are saying is just a little brick in the knowledge，” Gonzalez said.

　　Artistic activities like taking a painting class or visiting a gallery are
becoming increasingly popular today.13.（　　） However， scientific
studies have shown that art plays a critical role in promoting health and
well-being.
　　Art is found to be effective in relieving stress. This applies to both
children and adults. Activities such as painting， drawing， and sculpting
have been linked to lower stress and mental calmness. They take
participants’ mind off busy daily work. 14.（　　）
　　Another great benefit of art is that it encourages both kids and adults
in imagination and creative thinking. It helps develop and improve
problem-solving skills.15.（　　） That allows people to imagine
different solutions to problems. This type of creative thinking allows the
brain to perform complicated functions in ways that learning a new
language does.
　　16. （　　） It drives the brain to produce a hormone （激素） that
makes people feel good about themselves， improves concentration， and
increases motivation，providing a sense of accomplishment. After
completing a creative project， people will feel happy and satisfied. This
process of creating something unique can promote a sense of well-being
and even slow down aging.
　　Sharing the creative process of making art is a great way to help
students build their social awareness and interpersonal skills. This can
remind schools to have students work with seniors in the community！ 17.
（　　） Creating visual arts helps in transforming lives of people with
brain disorders like Alzheimer’s disease by increasing connections，
promoting cell growth and improving memory.
A. Include artistic activities in the daily life.
B. Creating art helps increase self-confidence.
C. Art is a very interesting topic for people of all ages.

受和放松，在促进健康和幸福方面也发挥着至关重要的作用。
13. G　根据空后的However可知，上下文有转折关系，G项中提到人
们对艺术的看法是only enjoyment and relaxation，这与空后一句中科学
研究得出的观点art plays a critical role in promoting health and well-
being形成对比。
14. E　上文介绍艺术有助于帮助人们减轻压力，让人从繁忙的工
作中解放出来。E项承接上文，进一步说明其好处，E项中的
mental states such as fear and worry与上文lower stress and mental
calmness相照应。
15. D　根据That的指代关系和空后一句可知，上文中应出现指示代
词That指代的内容，D项中the creation of artworks即其指代对象，艺术
创作的自由性让人们能够想象出不同的解决问题的方法，都是关于艺
术有利于创造性思维的话题，符合语境。
16. B　根据空后一句可知，本段是在介绍艺术可以使人自信，自我
感觉良好，所以B项符合本段主题，同时是对本段内容的概括。
17. F　根据空前一句可知，F项是空前一句提到的活动的具体举例，
都是学生和老年人可以一起进行的艺术活动。

UNIT 4　Amazing art
中国画是用毛笔、墨和中国画颜料在特制的宣纸或绢上等作画的一种中国传统的绘画形式，具有悠久的历史。
　　Chinese painting is one of the oldest continuous artistic traditions in
the world.The materials used in Chinese painting， brush and ink on
paper and silk， have determined its characters.Originating from
calligraphy， it is a linear art， using brushwork to inspire images and
feelings.Once on paper， brushstrokes cannot be erased or corrected，
so a painter must have a complete mental concept of the painting before
even lifting the brush.
　　Chinese painting is closely related to harmony between man and
nature.The painter must work with speed， liveliness， confidence， and
technical mastery.Chinese painting doesn’t attempt to capture the actual
physical appearance of a subject， but rather its nature or
character.Chinese painting doesn’t present a single view； every area of
the painting is interesting to the eye.
　　Landscapes are often painted from a direction above the scene， so
that many areas can be seen at once.In large scenes or landscapes， the
eye is meant to travel along a visual path from one area to another.
　　There are three main subjects of Chinese painting： human figures，
landscapes， and birds and flowers.Figure painting became highly
developed during the Tang Dynasty， and landscape painting reached its
height during the Song Dynasty.After Chinese painters recognised
Western art during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries， they began to
develop new styles combining traditional Chinese painting with Western
impressionism and perspective.
　　Traditional Chinese painting involves the same techniques as
calligraphy and is done with a brush dipped in black or coloured ink，
typically on paper or silk.The finished work is then fixed on scrolls，
which can be hung or rolled up.Traditional painting is also done in albums
and on walls， and other media.

Have a good idea of the painting.
2. What is Chinese painting most likely to present？

M：Here is the news from Dallas.
Walmart posted its worst monthly sales results in history， declaring a
large decrease in April.
Monthly sales measure sales gains or losses at stores open for at least a
year.They are an obvious sign of the returns a supermarket earns， and
thus an influence on the amount of profit it makes.Most US supermarkets
are reporting their April results on Thursday.
Walmart’s 5％ drop in the four-week period fell below its earlier forecast
of “flat” sales of a 2％ to 3％ decrease.In a recorded phone message
Thursday， Walmart blamed bad weather last month in most US areas.
Walmart’s chief financial officer warned a month ago that the
company’s earlier goal of earnings for its latest quarter would be “a
challenge” to achieve， considering what the company foresaw as a
difficult April.The company didn’t provide an update.It did，
however， predict a sales gain for this month of a small decrease.Walmart
will report its results for its first quarter on Tuesday.

　　Cristina Mittermeier is a marine biologist， activist and multi-award-
winning photographer who has given her life to ocean protection.
Recognised as being one of the world’s most influential conservation
photographers， Cristina has travelled to 132 countries to achieve her
goal — to communicate the immediate need to protect wild places.
　　She began her career as a marine biologist， but soon realised that
she could better work for the interests of the oceans and the planet through
her camera than with scientific data. In her eyes， science is basic to
understanding what is happening to our planet， but it fails to convey the
emotions that make us care.
　　According to Cristina， photography allows us to humanise （使人
性化） stories and create something meaningful， and she had an urgent
need to share the difficult situation of the planet. For her， it’s all about
the emotional connections we can establish with the subject matter. She
loves creating pictures that engages people in conversations and makes
them stop and think. Establishing a successful career as a photographer
has not been an easy journey. She worked hard at teaching herself the
basics of photography and then she went back to school to learn more
about the underpinnings of fine art.
　　When asked what has inspired her focus on marine life， she
replied， “The ocean is barely mentioned but it is the largest ecosystem
on our planet and is the ecosystem that has the most influence on Earth. It
absorbs at least 25％ of all emissions and most of the heat on our planet. I
want people to recognise that the ocean isn’t just hurt by climate
change — it is our solution. If our oceans die — and they are dying — we
will die with them. Life on Earth is not possible without a living ocean.”

A. To take more wonderful pictures.
B. To urge people to protect the wild places.
C. To work for the non-for-profit organization.

D. She wants to establish a successful career as a photographer.
解析： 　推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句和第三段第一句可
知，Cristina认为与科学相比，摄影可以创造出有意义的东西，传
达人的情感。由此可推知，她觉得自己更适合当摄影师是因为她
可以通过相机传达情感信息。
26. Why does Cristina focus on the ocean？（　　）
A. Because of the marine life.
B. Because of the great emissions.
C. Because of her love for the ocean.
D. Because of the ocean’s importance.

致力于海洋保护的经历，她一开始是海洋生物学家，在意识到摄
影可以更好地向人们传递信息后，她转而去做摄影师，学习各种
知识，通过摄影创作吸引人们参与海洋保护。由此可知，她是一
个有责任心的人。

　　A 16th century drawing by one of the key figures of the German
Renaissance has been valued in excess of $10 million after it was initially
purchased at a yard sale for just $30 in 2017. According to Agnews
Gallery — the London auction house in possession of the artwork —
Albrecht Dürer， who died in 1528， is regarded as both the greatest
German artist of his time and as one of the most important artists and
intellectuals of the European Renaissance. The drawing that has been
rediscovered is titled “The Virgin and Child”. As Dürer’s career and
legacy have been studied in depth since his death， it is extremely rare to
find unknown works of his.
　　Boston-based art collector Clifford Schorer， who is a consultant to
the gallery， added Thursday that he came across the rare artwork，
thought to have been completed in 1503， by chance on the way to a party
in Massachusetts in 2019. He had forgotten to bring a gift to the party， so
he went to a bookstore， which sold collectable volumes. The bookseller
told him his friend had a Dürer drawing and asked if he would take a look
at it. Schorer agreed， but held out little hope.
　　“The artwork had been purchased at a yard sale at the home of an
architect who had been gifted the piece from his art dealer father，”
Schorer said. “Generally speaking， it’s an inverse （反向的）
relationship between how dramatic the claim is and how much of a let
down it is. For example if someone tells me they have a Leonardo da
Vinci， I’m usually pretty confident I’m going to see some images that
are unimpressive.”
　　But when he arrived to examine the artwork weeks later， he was
taken aback by its quality. “It was like experiencing a kind of electricity.
When you’re in my world you spend your life looking for unknown
things that lead to fascinating research avenues ...and I could see I was at
the beginning of something extremely exciting，” Schorer said.

28. Why is it rare to find the unknown works of Albrecht Dürer’s？
（　　）
A. He was a key figure of the German Renaissance.
B. His real works were only sold at the yard sales.
C. His works were studied carefully after he died.

29. What did Clifford Schorer do on his way to a party？（　　）
A. He went to buy a gift.
B. He collected old volumes.

30. Why did Clifford Schorer mention the example of Leonardo da
Vinci？（　　）
A. To show the value of Dürer’s drawing.
B. To describe his contradictory feelings.
C. To improve his own confidence in art.
D. To show the painting is unimpressive.
解析： 　推理判断题。根据第三段中Schorer说的话可知，
Schorer认为宣称的东西越厉害其结果会越让人失望，他用达·芬奇
的作品来做例子，其例子真实含义为：如果有人说有达·芬奇的
画，他会找出不是达·芬奇作品的证据。结合全文可知，这幅画却
是丢勒的真迹，由此可得出，他举达·芬奇作品的例子是想表达他
在发现丢勒的作品时的矛盾感情。
31. What does the underlined phrase “taken aback” in the last paragraph
mean？（　　）
A. Sold. B. Shocked.
C. Excited. D. Excused.
解析： 词义猜测题。根据最后一段中Schorer说的It was like
experiencing a kind of electricity.可知，看到画时，Schorer感觉像
被电击了。由此推断，当Clifford Schorer看到这幅画时，他对这
幅画的质量感到震惊。
D
　　An artificial intelligence system that has recently caught the spotlight
for numerous reasons has been asked to produce images of real-life iconic
（偶像的） cartoon characters.
　　The artificial intelligence that was requested to produce the images is
called Midjourney which is an AI program that is designed to produce
images from textual descriptions. The tool recently went into open in July
and has since grown in popularity as users are able to enter descriptions of
whatever they can think of to produce a completely unique image.
Midjourney is extremely impressive， as I have personally used it to
generate several wallpaper images for my desktop.
　　The AI system is capable of recognizing specific words such as 4K，
real-life， cartoon， high detail and more. Using these words and more，
you can write a prompt （提示符） such as： portrait image of Rick
Sanchez from Rick and Morty in real life. Taking this principle of being
able to request basically whatever you want， one， Midjourney， user
decided to create an award-winning image and enter it into an art
competition undisclosed （秘密的） of its creation process.
　　Jason Allen， a board game director， spent weeks improving the
prompt that he was entering into Midjourney and eventually generated
three images that he was happy with.
　　Allen entered the AI-generated images in the Digital Art category at
Colorado State Fair under his own name along with “via Midjourney”.
Allen won first place and used the opportunity to make a statement about
AI art being accepted among the community， saying， “Is it common
for artists to explain their process just for the sake of clarification？ Are
they judging the art or the method by which it was created？”

第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）
　　阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选
项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
　　Why is it that so many of us enjoyed painting and art as kids， but
have somehow lost that passion growing up？ We don’t know the
answer， but what we do know is that it’s never too late to start painting
again. 36.（　　） We’ve boiled these benefits down to our picks for
the top three.
　　Therapeutic Benefits — Painting is relaxing and can help reduce
your stress levels. 37.（　　） This has a similar effect on your body as
meditation （冥想）.The result is a positive attitude and a different
outlook on the world around you.
　　Unleashed （释放的） Creativity — 38.（　　） Unleashing your
creativity allows you to expand your abilities and gain self-confidence.
The joy of painting comes less from the quality of the painting and more
from the satisfaction of creating something amazing yourself.
　　Concentration & Perseverance （毅力） — Creating a painting
from start to finish takes time and effort. 39.（　　） Pushing through
this helps improve your ability to concentrate and persevere through new
challenges. Taking on a new painting can feel daunting （令人生畏的）
at first， but it’s a highly satisfying experience that will leave you
wanting more.
　　There you have it， three of the top reasons to start painting more
often. One of the best ways to get started is by attending a local painting
class or event. 40.（　　） For those of you in Utah， The Paint Mixer
offers local instructed painting events. Not in Utah？ Take a few minutes
to find a local painting studio near you. You’ll be shocked by the positive
impact painting will have on your life.
A. It makes each piece unique.
B. This can help ease you into painting.
C. Learning how to paint will strengthen their mind.
D. We all have the makings of a creative genius inside us.
E. There are many health benefits to be gained from painting.
F. During this process mistakes and challenges are being made and
overcome.
G. While painting， you’ll focus on what you are creating and let
everything else go.

处。
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了绘画带给人们的三种好
处。
36. E　上文提到什么时候重新开始绘画都不晚，下文具体介绍绘画
带给人们的三种好处。由此可知，设空处应该与绘画带给人们的好处
有关，故E项符合语境。空后一句中的these benefits指代E项中的many
health benefits。
37. G　根据段落小标题Therapeutic Benefits和空前一句可知，绘画
对身心有益。G项（绘画时，你会专注于创作而不想其他事）进一步
解释上文中提到的绘画能让人放松、减轻压力，符合语境。
38. D　根据段落小标题Unleashed （释放的） Creativity和空后一句
可知，内心有创造力才需要去释放。故D项（我们的内心都有成为创
作天才的必要条件）符合语境。D项中的creative与小标题中的
Creativity和下文中的creativity是原词复现关系。have the makings
of ...具备成为……的必要条件。
39. F　本段指出绘画能提高注意力并锻炼毅力。设空处与上下句
之间是顺承关系，具体解释了为什么绘画能提高注意力并锻炼毅
力。故F项符合语境。F项中的this process指代空前一句中的
Creating a painting from start to finish。challenges与空后一句中
的challenges是原词复现关系。
40. B　根据上下文可知，参加绘画课或活动对你开始绘画有帮助。
故B项（这可以帮助你轻松地绘画）符合语境。B项中的This指代上文
中的attending a local painting class or event。ease sb into sth使某人熟悉
某物（新事物）。

成一篇完整的短文。
　　I had just poured my second cup of tea that morning and sat down to
read the paper.From somewhere， an inner voice said， “Go and see
Jeff and bring him the chair to repair.Go right now.”
　　It was such a strong impulse （冲动） that I hurriedly dressed and
lugged （用力拖） a dining-room chair to his door.Jeff was a neighbour
who had lost his wife a while back， and he occasionally did minor repairs
for me on furniture because he enjoyed working with his hands.
　　I knocked on his door and waited a while.I was about to walk away
when he answered.He looked like he was far away in his thoughts.I felt
awkward about disturbing him so early.I greeted him and then asked if he
could repair my chair.He invited me inside.We sat in his living room.He
looked depressed and not his usual self.He said he had had a stroke （中
风） recently， and while he was home now， he still needed to attend
outpatient physical therapy （门诊理疗）.He had to build his strength
back up.I apologized for the chair and told him， under the
circumstances， I would just bring it back home.He said to leave it.
　　We talked for a while.It had scared him to be in the hospital.He
hadn’t been there since his wife had died.Having worked as a mental
health therapist， I listened to how hard it had been since his wife passed
away and how much worse it was now since the stroke.The longer we
talked， the more I saw his mood lighten.
　　We even started talking about his diet and how he had not been
eating.He said the dietician had told him to eat more fruits and
vegetables， but he didn’t care for them.Mostly， I was concerned
because he was not eating much at all.I stayed talking with him until I saw
his mood lift and the tension leave his face.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；

　　After I left his home， I went to the grocery store and gathered

　　After I left his home， I went to the grocery store and gathered
ingredients.I made him a hot meal， which I thought would lift his
spirits.Carefully， I cut up some vegetables and prepared a dish for him.I
believed it was the best dish I’d ever made.Then， I made some home-
made biscuits and prepared fresh fruit for dessert.I dropped it off for
him.He was delighted that someone cared.Emotionally， he seemed in a
better place.
　　The next time I saw him， he said the dish was wonderful.Though I
am usually skeptical of praise， I understood because I’d made it with
love.He talked of his next physical-therapy appointment.I made sure he
had transportation； I would gladly have driven him， but he had figured
it out.What’s more， he repaired my chair.He said it gave him a reason
to get his strength back.He had returned to his usual self， and his
confidence had returned.I was so thankful for the inner voice that directed
me to see him that morning.(共20张PPT)

来自卢浮宫的直播
　　嗨，我是扎克！我在巴黎向大家问好！本次直播地点是地球上最
大的博物馆之一——卢浮宫！今天我们将一起探索卢浮宫里的奇珍异
宝。让我们开始吧！
　　现在，我们到了这段石头阶梯的顶端……台阶实在是太多了！你
们看到的这尊巨大的雕像就是《萨莫色雷斯的胜利女神》，又名《萨
莫色雷斯的奈基》！ 我都不知道该如何向你们形容这个雕塑有多惊
人！她看起来好像刚刚从高空飞落，正站立在船上。虽然头部和手臂
已经遗失了，但你们仍然可以想象她正高举双臂，庆祝一场古老战役
的胜利。看她裙子上被风吹出的皱褶！我简直不敢相信她是石头做
的。雕刻家的技艺真令人难以置信。
　　好了，我得往前走了。你们能看见，这儿有好多人。实际上，我
一直在被挤来挤去。你们肯定会喜欢接下来出现的展品。那就是独一
无二的《蒙娜丽莎》！这幅画比你们想象的要小很多，而且被玻璃罩
着。不过我在这里可以拍得很清楚来给你们看。当我与她对视的时
候，我觉得她好像有自己的思想！上一刻她仿佛还在取笑我，而下一
刻我却能从她的微笑中捕捉到一丝悲伤。我想那就是为什么她能每天
吸引那么多的游客前来吧。
　　现在，是时候近距离亲身了解历史上最伟大的画家之一——伦勃
朗啦！他在大约400年前画了这幅自画像。终其一生，他一共画了90
多幅自画像！没有人知道为什么。也许这是他在17世纪“自拍”的方
式？又或许只是因为画自己比花钱请模特儿更实惠？
　　卢浮宫共有300多个房间，目前正在展出的艺术品大约是35，000
件，而要看完所有的展品大概需要一辈子！今天我们就先到这里，希
望有一天你们都能来参观这个美妙之地，亲身感受这些伟大艺术作品
的魅力。这些作品穿越几个世纪，确实出现在我们面前，仿佛时间没
有流逝一般。哦对了，如果你们喜欢这场直播，请点击“订阅”，关

　　The Night Watch was commissioned （委托） around 1639 by Frans
Banninck Cocq， the captain of Amsterdam’s civil militia （民兵组
织）， and described him and his 17 members. It was completed in 1642
by Rembrandt van Rijn and spent more than 70 years in the hall of the civil
militia.
　　In 1715， Dutch officials decided to move the painting to the city hall
in Amsterdam’s Royal Palace on the Dam. The almost 12-foot by 14-
foot artwork couldn’t go through the doors， so the movers made a
decision and cut off the edges of the painting. The missing parts were
never recovered. However， art historians have been aware of the missing
items thanks to a smaller copy of the original scene painted by Dutch artist
Gerrit Lundens.
　　In 2019， officials of Amsterdam’s Rijksmuseum， where the
painting has been displayed since 1808， decided to recreate the missing
parts. To help them with the restoration （修复）， the team， led by the
museum’s senior scientist， Robert Erdmann， turned to a new AI
algorithm （算法）. Called Convolutional Neural Networks， it helps
computers figure out what images may have once looked like. The
scientists scanned high-resolution images of the original （原作） and
Ludens’ painting to the computer. The AI was able to study and correct
the painting’s perspective. It also recognized the exact colours used by
the Dutch master and could even copy his brushstrokes.
　　The “missing” parts were printed and mounted to the painting. The
left side included two men watching the event and a young boy running
away from the militia. A drummer and a barking dog were added to the
painting’s right side.
　　The AI helped the museum reproduce the best possible version of the
missing pieces. But Taco Dibbits， director of the Rijksmuseum， thinks
that the original missing parts are still around and will be returned to the
museum some day. The restored painting will be on show and it can also
be seen online on the museum’s website.

　　Every year in May， museums prepare shows to honor Leonardo da
Vinci， who died in France on 2 May 1519. He is remembered as one of
the greatest artists and creative thinkers of all time. His most famous
paintings are Mona Lisa and the Last Supper.
　　Recently， researchers have been studying a painting， Landscape
8P which they think is da Vinci’s earliest-known artwork. They used
special lighting to study the artwork and discovered there were two
images， not one. One drawing is on the back of the piece， which dates
back to 5 August 1473.
　　The drawing on the front was painted when Leonardo was 21 years
old. It shows a river valley and a castle outside the city of Florence. There
is little left of the drawing on the back， perhaps because it was wiped off.
Only a bridge over a river can be seen. But there is writing on both sides.
　　The writing on the front gives the date and goes from right to left.
Some people would call this “mirror-writing”. It’s a way Leonardo
often wrote in his notebooks. The writing on the back goes from left to
right and tells about an agreement， probably to produce a work of art.
　　Cecilia Frosinini is an art historian. She said， “Leonardo was born
left-handed， but was taught to write with his right hand from a very
young age. By looking at his writings， including from this drawing， we
can see his right-handed handwriting is educated and well done.”
　　Experts compared the two handwriting samples and said they were
both made by Leonardo. They show he could write well using his left hand
or his right hand.
　　The drawing is known as Landscape 8P from its number in an art list.
It will be part of an exhibit at Italy’s Uffizi Gallery. The museum
director， Eike Schmidt， said by studying the drawing researchers gave
us a new way of looking at Leonardo’s drawing techniques and his
abilities in writing.

　　During a dark period in his youth， Bill Murray was wandering the
streets of Chicago， feeling extremely sad and hopeless. “I was no
longer excited about anything in life，” the actor recalled. That day he
decided to visit the Art Institute and found himself in front of Jules
Breton’s 1884 painting The Song of the Lark （云雀）， which shows a
young woman looking skyward， sickle （镰刀） in hand， a bright
orange sunrise behind her. Suddenly， Murray felt he had a promising
future.
“I just thought， well， the girl doesn’t have many chances of success，
but the lark’s flying high up in the sky and the sun’s coming up anyway
and she’s got another chance at it，” he said. “That gave me some
sort of feeling that I’d get another chance every day the sun comes up.”
Murray credits the painting with changing his life forever.
　　Though making art has long been regarded as a form of treatment
through self-expression， recently， passive participation — looking at
art — is now being regarded as a different way of improving mental
health. “We know that for a lot of people， making art can be a useful
way to treat a mental illness，” says Tim A Shaw， artist and co-founder
of the arts and mental health charity Hospital Rooms. “But doing some
painting or drawing isn’t usually an easy， relaxing thing for those who
suffer from a high level of mental stress； it’s an uncomfortable
pleasure.”
　　A few months ago， doctors at one of Brussels’s largest hospitals
partnered with — and began advising patients to make visits to — the
city’s fine arts museums. “We’re in the middle of a crisis that has
brought so much stress to people， and I think culture may be the
answer，” says government official Delphine Houba. The World Health
Organization， in 2019， also published a 146-page report that
recommends the inclusion of arts in the treatment of mental health. In the
UK， Hospital Rooms has been changing dozens of wards （病房） by
painting their walls and filling them with artworks by artists like Nick
Knight and Gavin Turk.

　　Jamie Wardley is a special kind of artist — an ice sculptor. He first
trained as a sand sculptor. Later，he learned about ice sculpture. Now he
does sand sculpture in summer. And in winter， he sculpts ice.
　　When sculpting ice， Wardley has to work in cold temperatures. If
the weather is cold enough， he can work outside. But winter in the
United Kingdom is not always very cold. So often he works in a large
freezer where the temperature is about －12℃.
　　Wardley enjoys sculpting ice outside in winter. When he sculpts in
the open air， people can watch. They can be part of the creative process.
　　Wardley makes ice sculpting sound simple.But the tools Wardley uses
are sharp and dangerous. And the ice is very heavy. Each block of ice
weighs 120 kilos. And some larger sculptures are made of several
combined blocks of ice. Sometimes ice sculptures can be as big as
buildings. In Kemi， Finland there is an ice hotel called the Snow Castle.
Each year， Wardley helps build the Snow Castle.
　　Inside the Snow Castle， the temperature is －50℃. Even the dining
tables are made of ice. So you have to wear winter clothes when eating
and wear a hat when sleeping. “The ice hotel is built every year in
January. Then it melts in April. Each year we rebuild it and create a new
design，” Wardley said.
　　The Snow Castle is a large and amazing work of ice， but
Wardley’s smaller ice sculptures are special too. One winter， in the city
of Bradford， the UK， Wardley created several small sculptures. He
used the sculptures to tell a story which contained an important message
about goodwill and understanding.
　　Ice sculptures are temporary works of art. When the temperature
rises， they will melt. But that does not mean that their beauty is lost. The
sculptures from that day in Bradford have now melted away， but their
message of goodwill， understanding and acceptance remains.

　　Finger painting is an art that most people have experienced in
childhood. But there are still people who know little about this art form.
Finger painting is a simple activity that involves dipping fingers in paints
and then using fingers to create objects and shapes on a piece of paper. All
you need is a table at elbow height， a few sheets of plain paper， and a
few bottles of watercolour.
　　When engaging kids in this activity， one should use non-toxic （无
毒的） paints only. If not available in the market readily， non-toxic
paints can be made at home easily. Preferably， the paints should also be
eatable. Finger paints come in bright colours and can be purchased
relatively inexpensively. Adults can save money by making their own
finger paints using a mixture of cornstarch， food colouring and water.
　　It is a common fallacy that finger painting is for children alone，
rather it’s an activity that can be enjoyed by adults in equal measure.
Adults can use rubber gloves while painting to avoid dirty marks of paints
on their hands. When a group of people are gathered for an exercise of
finger painting， it can be a great way of creating a bond between the
group. Art and painting parties are a popular concept in the West.
Organizations can also use finger painting as a team-building activity by
making participants paint together on a large canvas （画布）.
　　There’s no limit to the expression of feelings in finger painting. All
one needs to do is go all out and put all their feelings on a piece of paper
by dipping their fingers in paints. While painting， one may
unconsciously choose colours that reflect their emotions. For example，
you may choose the colour red to express your anger or green to express
hope. At times you may be confused， and the painting will help you
describe your confused state of mind. Once you get your emotions on
paper， you are likely to feel relieved.
　　So what are you waiting for？ Plan a finger-painting session soon，
and experience the joy.

Ⅰ.阅读理解
　　Huang Gongwang was a famous Chinese artist in the Yuan Dynasty.
He was good at music， poetry， writing and especially painting.
　　Huang was born in 1269 in Jiangsu Province. Sadly， when he was
young， his parents died and he lived a poor life. But then， a nice man
from Zhejiang Province adopted him and took care of him. The kind man
was impressed by the boy’s talent. Later Huang began to learn painting
under the guidance of Zhao Mengfu.
　　Between the ages of 50 and 62， Huang often travelled in nature.
During the long-term travelling， he developed an interest in rivers and
mountains. When living in Songjiang， Huang often watched and enjoyed
the fantastic scenery there. Sometimes he sat in the mountains all day，
even forgetting to eat and have a rest. While enjoying the beauty of
nature， he got lots of good ideas about what to paint.
　　Huang drew lots of paintings during his later life. But most of them
have gone missing over the centuries. Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains
is one of the few surviving works and it is considered to be among his
greatest works. It describes the autumn scenery along Fuchun River in
southern China with ink and wash. After years of efforts， Huang finished
painting Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains. Unluckily， this painting
was later burnt into two pieces. Now， the two pieces are carefully kept in
two different museums.
　　During Huang’s life， he made great achievements in painting.
Because of his great ability in art， Huang was considered one of the Four
Great Masters of the Yuan Dynasty.

　　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。
　　Scarlett did not eat regularly when she was three years old. At the
time， her parents thought she was just a picky eater， but after a blood
test and some other tests， they learned she had a rare heart condition.
　　“I was shocked. I always thought it was her stomach， but the result
was beyond our imagination，” her mom， Shanna Tabron， says. “It
was really tough to understand and let it sink in. The heart is the engine to
your body， and it was heart-broken to hear it.”
　　In the following 5 years， Scarlett was in and out of the hospital
while she waited for a new heart， before receiving a transplant in 2019.
Since then， Scarlett said she’s been “feeling better”. And she is a
cute and active girl and has found great joy through dancing， which she
finds both fun and challenging. This year， when the doctor told
Scarlett’s parents that they should not worry about Scarlett’s heart any
more， the family even held a dance party for the lucky and brave girl.
　　Out of all the dancers in the world， Scarlett’s biggest inspiration is
the amazing Rockettes. “They are the best，” Scarlett says. “Even
when I was sick and went through so many tests， I could felt the power
and energy they gave me.” She always wished to see the Rockettes in
person.
　　Through a partnership between Make-A-Wish Southern Florida and
Make-A-Wish Metro New York， Scarlett and her family recently got to
fly to New York City for an unforgettable weekend.
　　And when she found out that her dream of going to New York City to
meet them was coming true， she was excited. “I’m really excited to
go dancing with the Rockettes and watch their performance，” she
said， after changing into a special dancing suit to show off her high
kicks.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式作答。
　　In tears， Scarlett’s mother observed the little girl during the
show. 　　
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
　　Then， Scarlett got to attend a private meet with the Rockettes
dancers in person. 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
参考范文：
　　In tears， Scarlett’s mother observed the little girl during the show.
During the performance， Scarlett had the biggest eyes and smile，
forgetting everything around. It seemed as if she had joined them，
dancing with them. She felt so special. “After the show ended， they
had some flowers falling from the ceiling， and she opened her bag to
collect them as a sweet memory of the best day，” Scarlett’s mother
said.
　　Then， Scarlett got to attend a private meet with the Rockettes
dancers in person. “Scarlett kept saying， ‘You are perfect，’” her
mom recalls. The dancers surprised her with a bag filled with gifts. “The
minute I met Scarlett， I could see her eyes light up with joy，” said one
of the professional dancers. “My favourite part of spending time with
Scarlett was seeing her excitement as she talked about her love for dance，
and for the Rockettes，” she added. The dancers felt thankful that they
could be a part of Scarlett’s holiday this year， while for Scarlett and her
family， this was a trip they would never forget.
