William Wordsworth
If, like the 19thcentury Romantic poet William Wordsworth, the sight of a field of golden daffodils(水仙花)has ever cheered your lonely hours, visit Dove Cottage in Grasmere.

Agatha Christie
The UK's “Queen of Crime”, Agatha Christie, was born in Torquay. Every year, the town celebrates the creator of Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple with a festival that features talks, music shows and plays. When you visit the house, you can immerse yourself in the Christie mystery by exploring her collections and even booking a room on the top floor.
Charles Dickens
Born in Portsmouth, Dickens spent part of his childhood living near the Chatham Dockyard in Kent. Despite his time in London, Kent is the county most associated with the author of Oliver Twist and dozens of other familiar stories.

Eugene O'Neill, who was born in 1888, in New York, was a leading American drama writer and the winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1936.His father was a successful touring actor.Because of that, Eugene spent his early childhood in hotels, on trains, and backstage.Although later in his life he grew to hate his father for not giving him security in his early years and a loving, comfortable family, he had the theater in his blood.
As a student, O'Neill went to boarding schools but spent the summers in a moderate house his family owned.He left Princeton University in 1907, only about one year after he entered it, to start what he later called his real education in “life experience”.At the age of 24, he was hired as a reporter and poetry column writer for the New London Telegraph.
O'Neill didn't cut a figure in playwriting until the summer of 1916.Before that, he had written awkward plays that were hardly accepted by the mainstream of American theater.While O'Neill was only one of those whose plays were produced by the theater, he led the group to success because of his contribution within the next few years.Between 1916 and 1920, the theater produced all of O'Neill's oneact sea plays.By the time his first fulllength play, Beyond the Horizon, was produced on Broadway on February 2, 1920 at the Morosco Theater, the young playwright already had a small reputation.
Theater critics spoke highly of Beyond the Horizon for its tragic realism.The play brought O'Neill more public attention, as well as his first Pulitzer Prize, apart from which he won another three for Anna Christie, Strange Interlude, and Long Day's Journey into Night.Over the next two decades, O'Neill continued to gain reputation nationally and globally.He became the most widely produced dramatist after Shakespeare and Bernard Shaw.

A.He didn't want to study in a boarding school.
B.He wanted to receive real education from life.

(全国乙卷)You've heard that plastic is polluting the oceans—between 4.8 and 12.7 million tonnes enter ocean ecosystems every year.But does one plastic straw or cup really make a difference? Artist Benjamin Von Wong wants you to know that it does.He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage, forcing viewers to reexamine their relationship to singleuse plastic products.
At the beginning of the year, the artist built a piece called “Strawpocalypse”, a pair of 10foottall plastic waves, frozen midcrash.Made of 168,000 plastic straws collected from several volunteer beach cleanups, the sculpture made its first appearance at the Estella Place shopping center in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
Just 9% of global plastic waste is recycled.Plastic straws are by no means the biggest source(来源)of plastic pollution, but they've recently come under fire because most people don't need them to drink with and, because of their small size and weight, they cannot be recycled.Every straw that's part of Von Wong's artwork likely came from a drink that someone used for only a few minutes.Once the drink is gone, the straw will take centuries to disappear.
In a piece from 2018, Von Wong wanted to illustrate(说明)a specific statistic: Every 60 seconds, a truckload's worth of plastic enters the ocean.For this work, titled “Truckload of Plastic”, Von Wong and a group of volunteers collected more than 10,000 pieces of plastic, which were then tied together to look like they'd been dumped(倾倒)from a truck all at once.
Von Wong hopes that his work will also help pressure big companies to reduce their plastic footprint.
[语篇导读] 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了艺术家Benjamin Von Wong用塑料垃圾制作了一个巨大的雕塑作品, 让人们通过这个雕塑重新审视自己与一次性塑料制品的关系。此外他在2018的一件作品“Truckload of Plastic”说明了每60秒, 就有一卡车塑料进入海洋。Von Wong通过用塑料垃圾制造巨型雕塑来唤醒和提高人们的环保意识。
8.What are Von Wong's artworks intended for?
A.Beautifying the city he lives in.
B.Introducing ecofriendly products.
C.Drawing public attention to plastic waste.
D.Reducing garbage on the beach.
解析 推理判断题。根据第一段“But does one plastic straw or cup really make a difference?

答案 C
9.Why does the author discuss plastic straws in paragraph 3?
A.To show the difficulty of their recycling.
B.To explain why they are useful.

解析 推理判断题。根据第三段“Just 9% of global plastic waste is recycled.Plastic straws are by no means the biggest source(来源)of plastic pollution, but they've recently come under fire because most people don't need them to drink with and, because of their small size and weight, they cannot be recycled.Every straw that's part of Von Wong's artwork likely came from a drink that someone used for only a few minutes.Once the drink is gone, the straw will take centuries to disappear.(全球只有9%的塑料垃圾被回收。塑料吸管绝不是最大的塑料污染源, 但它们最近却受到了抨击, 因为大多数人不需要吸管喝饮料, 而且由于它们体积小、重量轻, 无法回收利用。Von Wong作品中的每一根吸管都很可能来自只喝了几分钟的饮料。一旦饮料消失了, 吸管也要几个世纪才能消失。)”可知, 吸管由于体积小, 重量轻, 无法回收利用, 由此可推知, 作者在第三段讨论吸管是为了展示它们回收的困难。故选A。
答案 A
10.What effect would “Truckload of Plastic” have on viewers?
A.Calming. B.Disturbing.
C.Refreshing. D.Challenging.
解析 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“In a piece from 2018, Von Wong wanted to illustrate(说明)a specific statistic: Every 60 seconds, a truckload's worth of plastic enters the ocean.For this work, titled ‘Truckload of Plastic’, Von Wong and a group of volunteers collected more than 10,000 pieces of plastic, which were then tied together to look like they'd been dumped(倾倒)from a truck all at once.(在2018年的一个作品中, Von Wong想要说明一个具体的统计数字:每60秒, 就有一卡车塑料进入海洋。这项名为“一卡车塑料”的作品, Von Wong和一组志愿者收集了一万多块塑料, 然后把它们绑在一起, 让它们看起来像是同时从卡车上倾倒下来的。)”可知, 这个作品会让观众对塑料垃圾进入海洋这件事“感到不安”。故选B。

(绍兴一中高二期中) Every day since 2007, the artist Beeple has created a new piece of digital art. On 11 March 2021, a collage(拼贴画)made up of 5,000 pieces of Beeple's daily digital artworks went on sale and became the world's most expensive piece of digital art. The sale was made possible thanks to nonfungible tokens(NFT, 非同质化代币). There are pieces of code that make someone the official owners of the digital artwork. This means digital artworks can now be bought and sold like physical paintings. In 2021, more than $15.7 billion was spent on NFTs. According to Beeple and other artists, NFTs represent the next step in art history. For others, they are nothing but a shortlived fashion and will never replace the real thing.
Some people advocate digital artworks. They argue that from streaming services to esports, the world is becoming more digital, why should art be different? Artists can make beautiful pieces of work on their computers. They should be able to make money from selling digital art in the same way as artists throughout history. Art evolves according to the tools available to us. Embracing digital methods could lead to exciting new works that would never have been possible in the past. Plus, the art world can be exclusive(排他的), with paintings only on show at certain galleries. Digital art gives more people the chance to enjoy art.
However, opponents believe that only a line of computer code is not the same as owning a painting. Even though you can't touch most artworks, they are meant to be seen up close with your own eyes. A digital art displayed on a computer screen will never match the experience of walking through a gallery. Even worse, the technology behind it is bad for the environment. NFTs rely on a network of computers that have to be running at all times to process information. This uses up a lot of power and it's a big source of greenhouse gas emissions, which are the primary cause of climate change.
[语篇导读] 本文是一篇说明文, 主要介绍的是NFT带来了数字艺术, 陈述了支持数字艺术和反对数字艺术的两种观点。
12.Why are Beeple and his digital artworks mentioned at the beginning of the passage?
A.To share a story with the reader.
B.To introduce the topic of the passage.
C.To show how promising the market of digital artworks is.
D.To illustrate how successful Beeple is in his field.
解析 推理判断题。根据第一段“On 11 March 2021, a collage(拼贴画)made up of 5,000 pieces of Beeple's daily digital artworks went on sale and became the world's most expensive piece of digital art. The sale was made possible thanks to nonfungible tokens (NFT, 非同质化代币).(2021年3月11日, 一幅由5 000件Beeple日常数字艺术品组成的拼贴画开始出售, 成为世界上最昂贵的数字艺术品。由于NFT, 这笔交易成为可能。)”可知, 文章开头提到了Beeple和他的数字艺术作品的目的是提出本文的主题。故选B。
答案 B
13.Which of the following might the opponents agree with?
A.Going digital is the unavoidable trend of the modern world.
B.The power that NFTs require will do harm to our planet.
C.NFTs will make the art world more available for art lovers.
D.Digital artworks will make a lot of profits for galleries.
解析 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Even worse, the technology behind it is bad for the environment. NFTs rely on a network of computers that have to be running at all times to process information. This uses up a lot of power and it's a big source of greenhouse gas emissions, which are the primary cause of climate change.(更糟糕的是, 它背后的技术对环境有害。NFT依赖于一个必须时刻运行的计算机网络来处理信息。这消耗了大量的电力, 是温室气体排放的一大来源, 而温室气体是气候变化的主要原因。)”可知, 反对者可能同意的观点是NFT所需的能量将对我们的星球造成危害。故选B。
答案 B
14.What is the author's attitude towards digital artworks?
A.Doubtful. B.Supportive.
C.Objective. D.Critical.
解析 推理判断题。根据第二段“Some people advocate digital artworks.(有些人提倡数字艺术。)”和第三段“However, opponents believe that only a line of computer code is not the same as owning a painting.(然而, 反对者认为, 仅仅一行计算机代码并不等同于拥有一幅画。)”可知, 本文作者客观陈述了支持者和反对者的观点, 因此作者的态度是客观的。故选C。
答案 C
15.Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Digital artworks will replace physical paintings
B.Digital artworks will lead to environmental problem
C.Physical paintings are the best choice for gallery exhibition
D.Are digital artworks better than physical paintings?
解析 主旨大意题。通读全文, 尤其是第一段“According to Beeple and other artists, NFTs represent the next step in art history. For others, they are nothing but a shortlived fashion and will never replace the real thing.(根据Beeple和其他艺术家的说法, NFT代表了艺术史的下一步。对另一些人来说, 它们只是一种短暂的时尚, 永远不会取代真正的东西。)”, 第二段“Some people advocate digital artworks.”和第三段“However, opponents believe that only a line of computer code is not the same as owning a painting.”可知, 本文主要介绍的是NFT带来了数字艺术, 陈述了支持数字艺术和反对数字艺术的两种观点, 因此最好的题目是“Are digital artworks better than physical paintings?(数字艺术比实体绘画更好吗?)”。故选D。
答案 D

Ms. Clay, the art teacher, stood at the front of the room.“Class, next Friday our school is going to have an art competition,”she announced.Ms. Clay was a great teacher, and Lily liked her a lot.But this announcement made Lily nervous.“Everyone in the school will create a piece of artwork to show in the library.You can use the different types of artwork we have been studying.” Ms. Clay was quite excited when she spoke while Lily found herself sinking lower in her chair.
Lily had the whole weekend to work on her project, but she could not think of anything to do.On Monday, Lily felt frightened, so after school Lily asked Ms. Clay if she could write an art paper instead of doing an art project.
“I understand this project scared you, Lily,” Ms. Clay said.“Just remember, you can create any kind of art you want.”Ms. Clay smiled at her.“Art is a person's way of expressing his or her feelings—it isn't always painting, drawing, or cutting.I know you will think of something very creative, and I can't wait to see it.”
When Lily arrived home, she took out a piece of paper and a pencil.She remembered Ms. Clay's words.“Art is a person's way of expressing his or her feelings.” Lily wrote the word “terrified” on her paper.She crumpled(揉皱)the paper and threw it to the side of her desk.
