Whether you see yourself pursuing a career in film-making or want to learn the practical skills for yourself, New York Film Academy’s film camps are perfect for everyone with an interest in making films. The film camps are designed for people with little or no experience in making films.
Here are some classes and subjects in the camps.
Director’s craft
As the director is the leader of a film set, students will learn the language and practice of film-making so that they can apply this knowledge to their own original films. They will discuss shooting plans for their film projects and screen their work with their instructor throughout the course. Each student directs a series of films in groups of four. Groups are required to meet each week with the directing instructor to review scripts and shooting plans.
Writing
It’s the script that is the backbone of any film. In the camps, students will become comfortable writing original screenplays. Students learn the process of taking a story from an initial idea to a finished script for their final film.
Hands-on digital camera
Students will learn to shoot using cameras. They will learn proper loading, operation, and maintenance of the camera. In the first week, students will learn shoot, screen tests for focus, slow/fast motion, and so on. Students needing extra instruction are given review sessions if necessary.
Digital editing
Editing process gives actual structures. Students will learn to edit their films with digital editing software. Their instructors will cover both the technical aspects of the editing process, as well as the conventions and theory behind editing choices and styles.
Working with actors
To direct actors, one must learn how to work with actors and receive instruction and experience in how to get effective performances from actors. Students also get the chance to gain some experience as actors.

Robert Campbell, a 68-year-old retired teacher from Glasgow, has lived with type 2 diabetes (糖尿病) for a decade. Recently, worrying blurriness in his vision prompted him to seek a screening for diabetic retinopathy — a diabetes-related eye disease that causes blindness. Traditionally, he would have faced a long wait for a specialist appointment within Scotland’s National Health Service.
His local clinic, however, was part of a new pilot program using an AI-powered platform for eye disease called “RetinaScan AI”. The process was simple: a staff member took a photograph of Robert's retina (视网膜). Within minutes, the system provided an automated assessment, detecting subtle signs of the disease with remarkable accuracy. This initiative effectively skipped the traditional bottleneck, bringing expert-level screening directly to the community.
The technology is built on deep learning. The AI was trained on hundreds of thousands of retinal images previously labeled by eye doctors. Through this process, it learned to identify critical indicators of diabetic eye disease with a consistency unaffected by human tiredness. Its primary role is screening: efficiently identifying healthy patients and flagging those, like Robert, who require urgent specialist care.
“Platforms like RetinaScan AI are game-changers,” explains Dr. Eleanor Reed, a consultant eye doctor. “They don’t replace our expertise; they enhance it. By handling the massive initial screening workload, they ensure that human specialists can focus their skills on complex diagnoses and treatment planning, ultimately preventing preventable vision loss.”
The Glasgow pilot has already yielded promising results. In its first six months, the program successfully screened over 5,000 patients, cutting average wait times for screening from 12 weeks to just days. More importantly, it has accurately tagged hundreds of at risk individuals, like Robert, for early intervention, demonstrating a meaningful impact on patient outcomes.
Robert Campbell’s story is just the first chapter. This pilot program paves the way for AI technology to expand globally, reaching millions who need these vital screenings.
24. What problem did Robert Campbell face before the AI program was introduced？
A．He was found to have a rare diabetic eye disease.
B．His eye disease was too advanced to be treated.
C．His local clinic lacked the necessary equipment.
D．He had to wait long for a specialist appointment.
25. What is the main advantage of “RetinaScan AI” according to the text
A．It replaces the need for human doctors.
B．It provides immediate treatment for patients.
C．It offers quick and accurate screening in communities.
D．It is cheaper than traditional screening methods.
26. Why does Dr Eleanor Reed call AI platforms “game-changers”
A．They finally avoid vision loss.
B．They conduct initial screenings.
C．They treat complex diseases.
D．They work without specialists.
27. What can be a suitable title for the text
A．Is AI the Doctor’s Newest Assistant
B．How is AI Transforming Eye Care
C．What Could AI Contribute to Humans
D．Can AI Systems See More Than Doctors

Getting the most out of going to galleries involves more than just showing up. While a casual approach — “I don’t know much about art, but I know what I like” — might satisfy some, truly appreciating a painting requires a determination to go deeper.
Trust your eyes. The visual arts are not called the visual arts for nothing. Art is made to be looked at. And when your eyes decide whether they like something or not, they are drawing on the experience of a lifetime. So trust your eyes when they whisper their first impressions. Why do so many people love Van Gogh’s Sunflowers The moment you see them, they feel uplifting, joyous, and instantly pleasurable, reminding your eyes of the colour, mood and joy of a sunny day.
Your eyes may be the most important organ for looking at art, but the heart runs them a close second. When we look at a painting, we get somebody’s message sent to us. One heart is trying to speak to another. Take Daughters Chasing a Butterfly by Thomas Gainsborough for example. The first thing to feel is, of course, the artist’s love for his little girls. To my eyes, it’s entirely unmissable. The two girls, their faces recorded with so much insider skills, are chasing a butterfly, which has landed on a prickly (有刺的) plant. When they try to grab it, they might get hurt. So a loving daddy hasn’t just painted his love for his daughters. He has also painted — and this is where the heart comes in — his fears for them.
If you judge art by your own level of competence or understanding, you’re looking at art through a blindfold. In Truner’s The Fighting Temeraire, the old boat, bathed in an orange and purple sunset, is packed with significance and symbolism about a lost life and the end of the road. Just look at the power, the intensity, the volcanic brilliance of his depiction (描绘). Instead of limiting your appreciation to what you like, expand it to include what many others have liked before you.
Like all life’s profound pleasures, looking at art is a complex business. More accurately, it’s a pleasure with many layers and stages. But for the experienced art lover, the real joy is in the build-up, the delicious journey, the awesome pay-off.
28. What are viewers advised to do first in looking at art
A．Go over the history of art.
B．Draw on artists’ experience.
C．Compare with other artwork.
D．Rely on initial visual impressions.
29. Why is Gainsborough’s painting mentioned in paragraph 3
A．Love is popular in family-themed paintings.
B．Viewing art involves heart-to-heart connection.
C．Art is a visual record of an artist’s personal life.
D．Viewers are easily struck by the skills of artists.
30. What does the author suggest about judging art in paragraph 4
A．Considering others’ opinions.
B．Trusting your own judgment.
C．Sticking to personal taste.
D．Turning to realistic works.
31. What is the text mainly about
A．How to better engage with art.
B．How to read artists’ emotion.
C．How to better evaluate visual arts.
D．How to analyze famous paintings.

Researchers from the University of Buenos Aires have successfully used a robotic tutor to teach the male chingolo, a kind of small bird in South America, a song that was once part of the species’ culture but had been lost for more than half a century.
Male chingolos learn their unique, two-second melody from adult males. “It is a distinctive song — like a fingerprint, but learned,” says one of the researchers. “It serves to attract females and protect territory. It is the bird’s way of saying, “This is me, and here I am.” However, urbanization and habitat loss have broken this learning chain, causing local song “dialects” to disappear.
Driven by this problem, researchers took on a pioneering task: bringing back a song that had disappeared from the wild — known only from a musical record made in the 1960s — to a population of chingolos.
Using physics-based modeling of the bird’s vocal tract (声道) , the team first created an accurate artificial version of the lost song. They then engineered this model into a physical device designed to broadcast the forgotten melody — a “robotic tutor.” This artificial song was introduced to the chingolos in the park during their critical learning period from October to February. The sessions took place during peak singing hours and were limited to a maximum of eight hours. There were random pauses (停顿) in between so that the birds interpreted the playback from the three devices placed in the area as a real exchange, as if these devices were responding to each other. This stimulated the birds’ vocal responses.
The results were impressive. Young chingolos learned and adopted the song, though they added their own population’s “accent” to the final trill (颤音) , which showed that their singing is shaped by learned behaviors and inborn characteristics.
“This is about preserving not just genetic, but cultural biodiversity,” says another researcher. The team is now developing AI systems to automatically identify individual bird songs and planning to study cultural spread in bird populations to ensure that bird culture is not lost again.
32. Why did the researchers teach the birds the song
A．To save an endangered species.
B．To study the birds’ brain structure.
C．To develop new robotic devices.
D．To preserve the birds’ cultural heritage.
33. What is a role of chingolos’ song
A．It keeps hunters away from them.
B．It helps them adapt to urban growth.
C．It functions as their social identity.
D．It makes them remember their habitat.
34. What is the purpose of the random pauses
A．To protect the birds’ vocal tract.
B．To test the birds’ reaction speed.
C．To push the birds to catch the beat.
D．To trick the birds into interaction.
35. What can we learn from chingolos’ learning results
A．The song has spread to other bird species.
B．Their singing shows special vocal features.
C．Their response to the song needs improving.
D．The effectiveness depends on their population.

Standing on stage, singing a ballad (民谣) at a local Chinese festival, is a core memory for Kien Vuu. 36 While he was too young to understand the words, he was always singing Part of the Game, a 1970s song by Hong Kong pop group The Wynners — he did understand how much he loved performing music, especially with his family.
Vuu did not grow up to become a professional singer. 37 Later, he was a longevity doctor and also assistant professor of health science at UCLA. Yet he never lost his love for singing, so he made time regularly for karaoke sessions with his own children.
Apparently, for Dr. Vuu, singing with families fosters great affection and shared moments. It also creates an atmosphere where emotions can be expressed freely. 38 The moments brought by it are not only a pastime but also a connection to his roots and a bridge to his loved ones.
39 Just as Dr. Vuu says, as a doctor and researcher, he has become convinced that having hobbies is an essential part of living and aging well. He easily relates the benefits he gets from singing. In addition to boosting his mood, he says singing helps improve his memory and mental health, lower his stress and even give him a bit of cardio (有氧运动)。
For a small investment, that’s a lot of return. And the best news is that all these great mental and physical health benefits can come from any activity that “lights you up,” as Dr. Vuu puts it. Now, people feel very strongly about the importance of having hobbies, whose benefits are immense. 40
A．Hobbies may improve your cognitive health.
B．His work offers several insights into singing.
C．The benefits you reap will depend on your hobby.
D．Instead, he chose medical school and became Kien Vuu, MD.
E．Karaoke is the very thing that lights him up and brings him joy.
F．The positive health outcomes of hobbies are available to everyone.
G．When he was just six years old, he was the youngest of his family band.

A Peking Opera actress lifts her spear in a studio in Hangzhou. Instead of a traditional stage or a live audience, there is only a green screen, surrounded by a circle of cameras 56 record her every careful movement.
Later, when 57 (see) through a virtual reality (VR) headset, the same performance appears in a very different way. Rather than watching from 58 distance, the viewer feels as if he or she is standing inside the show. The project 59 (launch) by a VR production company based in Hangzhou in 2025. According to its founder, the company aims not only to record reality, but also to turn meaningful parts of the real world into immersive experiences.
Born in Kenya and raised in Canada, the founder of the company first came to China at the age of 18, where he 60 (gradual) developed a strong interest in traditional Chinese culture. He found countless 61 (story) in China’s traditional culture, and Peking Opera left the deepest impression on him. However, he soon realized that, for people 62 (familiar) with it, the art form could seem complex and distant. He therefore turned to VR technology, 63 (believe) that a stronger sense of presence, rather than simple 64 (observe) , would help close this gap.
The founder imagines a future in which anyone — whether in rural China 65 in Paris — can put on a headset and stand before a master performer, free from the limits of time and space.

67. 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。
One evening, while my dad and I were randomly discussing finances, he unexpectedly asked, “Is the allowance (津贴) enough for your college fund ” The sincerity in his voice caught me off guard since I had no memory of ever receiving such an allowance. He told me he had asked my stepmom to send $500 every month to my account. Suddenly, a rush of confusion and curiosity flooded my mind.
The next day, I rushed to the bank with my heart beating fast. “There’s no record of your allowance,” the clerk said.
Defeated, I returned home, suspicion growing. “Do you know anything about my allowance ” I asked Stepmom. She froze for a second, and then smiled. “Don’t worry, dear.” But her smile didn’t reach her eyes. This made me more determined to solve the mystery. One night, I overheard my stepmother on the phone. “It’s for their own good.” What did that mean
One weekend I found a bunch of bills in her study. Among them was a letter from a community foundation, thanking her for continuous donations to their first-generation college scholarship program. Just then, my parents walked in and saw me holding the letter.
“Please, let me explain,” Stepmom said, “Your father’s business has been struggling, but I didn’t want to increase his stress, so I used your allowance to pay urgent bills.” She added, “when I found the foundation’s scholarship for students like you — kids who dream of college but lack support, I started using your allowance there to help them.”
I stared at her, torn between surprise and understanding. “Why didn’t you tell us ” I asked, my voice shaking. She explained, “Your father worked so hard to establish that fund — I didn’t want him to feel frustrated. The fund also meant education access for you and for every student worth a chance. And I have been saving — look.” She pulled out a worn envelope from her desk, saying, “Lila’s College Fund.”

67.读后续写范文
I opened the envelope, hands trembling. Inside were thick stacks of bank deposit slips, each recording a monthly saving of more than 500 dollars. Every single sum she had donated before was doubled and stored here for my college education. Attached to the slips was a short note saying she hoped I could chase my educational dream without pressure, just like the poor students she helped. I had misunderstood her completely and felt ashamed of my previous suspicion.
Tears dropped on the handwritten pages. I hugged my stepmom tightly, apologizing for doubting her kindness. She patted my back softly and said she believed I would carry on this warm spirit in the future. Later, we three had a sincere talk, and Dad finally knew everything she had silently endured. I made up my mind that after entering college, I would also spare some money to support needy students and pass on this selfless love.
