It is the workshop of Gan Erke, a master of Chinese lacquerware (漆器) and inheritor of the Huizhou lacquerware decoration technique a national-level intangible cultural heritage. Gan devoted his life to creating delicate lacquerware pieces while reviving some elements of the craft that were close to being lost. He aims to promote this ancient art form to new heights while preserving its essence and maintaining China’s world-class standards.
Lacquerware, an ancient decorative technique, involves coating objects with natural juice from lacquer trees. China is considered its birthplace, as evidenced by findings from the Jingtoushan site in East China’s Zhejiang province, revealing that ancient Chinese were among the first to apply lacquer tree sap some 8, 000 years ago.
Creating lacquerware demands patience and preciseness. A single piece requires at least three to four months, or even a year, to complete. The process involves multiple steps — forming the base, sanding, applying coats of colored lacquer, drying, repeating lacquer coats, and drying dozens of times, followed by sanding the finish, buffing, and polishing — resulting in a brilliant surface with dynamic patterns in contrasting shades.
Gan’s journey began at a local arts and crafts factory from 1979 to 1986, where he gained deep insights into the glowing craft’s heritage. He found that although it originated in China, a concerning gap exists between China’s traditional lacquer techniques and contemporary works, particularly compared to Japan’s modern lacquer mastery. This realization inspired Gan to conduct deep research. “Made-in-China lacquerware should stand equal to, if not surpass, any other lacquerware globally,” Gan says.
Determined to glorify Chinese lacquerware to its deserved reputation, Gan embarked on an artistic quest. The 20-character depiction that guided Gan states: “There are patterns like floating clouds, round flowers, and overlapping pine bark textures. There are pieces with a glossy red surface, pursued as the beauty of extreme smoothness.” Gan recalls his early efforts to create an antique-style inkstone box based on ancient texts: “I knew what I needed to achieve, but the path was unclear. Each failed attempt meant grinding off the surface and repainting countless times.”
4. What can be inferred from the creation of lacquerware?
A. The early bird catches the worm. B. Better late than never.
C. Strike while the iron is hot. D. Haste means waste.
5. What is Gan’s attitude towards lacquerware?
A. He hardly relied on ancient techniques to make lacquerware.
B. He was frustrated with the lack of innovation in Chinese lacquerware.
C. He thought the techniques used in China were already the best.
D. He dedicated himself to creating decorative pieces without traditions.
6. Which of the following words can best describe Gan?
A. Innovative. B. Open-minded.
C. Dedicated. D. Conservative.
7. What is the purpose of this passage?
A. To explain the detailed steps in creating lacquerware.
B. To showcase Gan’s journey with Chinese heritage and his efforts,
C. To highlight the gap between traditional and modern lacquerware.
D. To introduce the importance of Chinese lacquerware.
【答案】4. D 5. B 6. C 7. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了甘而可复兴中国漆器工艺的努力和成就。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第三段中“Creating lacquerware demands patience and preciseness. A single piece requires at least three to four months, or even a year, to complete. (制作漆器需要耐心和精确。完成一件作品至少需要三到四个月,甚至一年时间。)”可知,漆器的制作需要耐心和精确,制作漆器不能急躁,即“Haste means waste (欲速则不达)”。故选D。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第四段中“He found that although it originated in China, a concerning gap exists between China’s traditional lacquer techniques and contemporary works, particularly compared to Japan’s modern lacquer mastery. This realization inspired Gan to conduct deep research. (他发现,尽管漆器起源于中国,但中国的传统漆器技艺与当代作品之间存在着令人担忧的差距,尤其是与日本现代的漆器技艺相比。这一认识激发了甘而可进行深入研究。)”可知,甘发现虽然漆器起源于中国,但中国的传统漆器技艺与当代作品之间存在令人担忧的差距,因此可以推断出,甘对中国漆器缺乏创新感到沮丧。故选B。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第一段中“Gan devoted his life to creating delicate lacquerware pieces while reviving some elements of the craft that were close to being lost. (甘而可一生致力于创作精美的漆器作品,同时复兴了一些几近失传的传统工艺元素。)”以及文章最后一段中“Determined to glorify Chinese lacquerware to its deserved reputation, Gan embarked on an artistic quest. (为了将中国漆器的声誉发扬光大,甘而可踏上了艺术探索之路。)”可知,甘是致力于漆器艺术,是一个专心致志的人。故选C。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是由文章第一段“It is the workshop of Gan Erke, a master of Chinese lacquerware (漆器) and inheritor of the Huizhou lacquerware decoration technique a national-level intangible cultural heritage. Gan devoted his life to creating delicate lacquerware pieces while reviving some elements of the craft that were close to being lost. He aims to promote this ancient art form to new heights while preserving its essence and maintaining China’s world-class standards. (这是中国漆器大师甘而可的工作室,他也是国家级非物质文化遗产——徽州漆器髹饰技艺的传承人。甘而可一生致力于创作精美的漆器作品,同时复兴了一些几近失传的传统工艺元素。他的目标是在保留漆器艺术精髓和维持中国世界级水准的同时,将这种古老的艺术形式推向新的高度。)”可知,文章主要讲述了中国漆器技艺的传承者甘尔克的一生致力于漆器艺术的创作和复兴,以及他对中国漆器技艺的深入研究和探索。因此,文章的目的是展示甘与中国遗产的旅程和他的努力。故选B。
C
In recent years, scientists have discovered interesting things about animals that suggest they might have awareness: bees have been seen playing with wooden balls, which suggests they might do things just for fun. Similarly, wrasses have shown signs of recognizing themselves in mirrors. They react to their own reflections as if they see themselves as other fish, a behavior previously thought to be seen only in more complex animals, mammals for instance.
Octopuses have also awed researchers with behaviors that suggest they understand their environment and remember past experiences. They avoid places where they’ve been hurt before, showing memory and decision-making based on past events. These discoveries, made in the last five years, show evidence that many species, not just mammals and birds, may have some level of consciousness and personal experiences.
Prompted by these findings, a group of top researchers working on animal cognition came together to issue “The New York Declaration on Animal Consciousness”. This declaration states that birds and mammals definitely experience consciousness and that there’s a realistic possibility that all vertebrates (脊椎动物), including reptiles, amphibians, and fish, share this trait (特点).
It also suggests that even animals without backbones, like insects, might also have some form of consciousness. This shift challenges the long-standing scientific belief that animals are purely mechanical beings without emotions or awareness. It marks a new era where recognizing and understanding the potential awareness of animals could affect how we ethically and legally treat them. Laws about animal welfare, which have historically focused on visible behaviors rather than internal experiences may need to change to reflect this new understanding.
Jonathan Birch, a philosophy professor involved in the declaration, mentioned the excitement among researchers about studying animal minds. He emphasized the importance of considering animals’ ability to sense their surroundings, feel emotions, and possibly have self-awareness. This broader perspective not only improves our scientific knowledge but also raises important ethical questions about how we interact with and care for the animals that share our world.
8. What have scientists discovered recently?
A. Birds have some level of consciousness.
B. Bees play with wooden balls unconsciously.
C. More animals might possess awareness.
D. Sea animals are smarter than mammals.
9. What does the underlined phrase “Prompted by” mean in paragraph 3?
A. Warned by. B. Shocked by.
C. Driven by. D. Discouraged by.
10. What can be inferred from the shift in paragraph 4?
A. Animals were thought to be emotional.
B. Intense animal protection is expected.
C. Animals were neglected and mistreated.
D. Regulations may begin to consider animals’ inner world.
11. Why does the author mention Birch’s words in the end?
A. To prove the declaration to be correct.
B. To analyze how animals’ sensation works.
C. To highlight the significance of the discovery.
D. To call on people to protect endangered animals.
【答案】8. C 9. C 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要说明了科学家近年发现一些低等动物也有意识,打破了旧的观念。这种转变对动物保护事业产生重要影响,让人们更多地关注动物的心理。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“These discoveries, made in the last five years, show evidence that many species, not just mammals and birds, may have some level of consciousness and personal experiences.(这些在过去五年中取得的发现显示,许多物种,不仅限于哺乳动物和鸟类,可能具有某种程度的意识和个人经历)”可知,科学家最近发现更多的动物可能拥有意识。故选C。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据下文内容“ a group of top researchers working on animal cognition came together to issue ‘The New York Declaration on Animal Consciousness’(一群研究动物认知的顶尖研究人员聚集在一起发布了“纽约动物意识宣言”)”可知,这些发现促使科学家们采取行动,发布了“纽约动物意识宣言”。故猜测Prompted by意为“驱使”。故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段的“It marks a new era where recognizing and understanding the potential awareness of animals could affect how we ethically and legally treat them. Laws about animal welfare, which have historically focused on visible behaviors rather than internal experiences may need to change to reflect this new understanding.(它标志着一个新时代的开始,在这个新时代,认识和理解动物的潜在意识可能会影响我们在伦理和法律上对待它们的方式。关于动物福利的法律,历史上一直集中于可见的行为,而不是内部体验,可能需要改变以反映这种新的理解。)”可推知,法律可能开始考虑动物的内心世界。故选D。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段的“Jonathan Birch, a philosophy professor involved in the declaration, mentioned the excitement among researchers about studying animal minds. He emphasized the importance of considering animals’ability to sense their surroundings, feel emotions, and possibly have self-awareness.(参与宣言的哲学教授Jonathan Birch提到,研究动物心智的研究人员之间的兴奋。他强调了考虑动物感知环境、感受情绪和可能拥有自我意识的能力的重要性。)”可推知,作者提到Birch的话是为了突出这一发现的重要性。故选C。
D
Look through the gallery window and you’ll see a simulated alien dancing in space. Explore inside, and a disturbing song is played while the smell of woodsmoke dances through the air. Five VR headsets greet visitors, each offering a different simulation of alien life. Put the pair of glasses on and you may find yourself surrounded by electric blue light waves that move in concert like a jellyfish.
This experience is part of Alienarium 5, an art exhibition by a French artist. Unlike traditional art exhibitions typically just involving viewing art from a distance, this kind of art brings audiences extraordinary experiences.
There have already been such immersive exhibitions concerning David Bowie (an English rock star) and ABBA (a Swedish pop band). There are also so many immersive Van Gogh experiences that the phenomenon has its own Wikipedia page. Such projects have exploded worldwide in recent years, varying hugely from well-designed, hi-tech exhibitions to mass-friendly projection shows of these talented artists.
FeverUp, an entertainment platform that organizes similar exhibitions, asks Internet users to vote on which artworks they’d like to be immersed in. The company wants to “democratize” culture and make art “accessible”. Yet a regular ticket to the Van Gogh experience costs £25, and a VIP ticket which includes a poster and a 12-minute show is around £40.
“The pricing is likely a financial barrier to accessibility in the full sense. Nevertheless, it is worth noting that organizing such experiences involves various costs, including the venue rental and staff cost. Ticket prices are typically set to ensure the sustainability of the exhibitions, ” says Kay Watson, a researcher working with art and advanced technologies.
Anyway, the appeal of immersive exhibitions won’t be overshadowed by the financial barrier. Theoretically, you could secure the licensing of an art team’s intellectual property, reproduce it on an industrial scale, and exhibit it anywhere. It’s a model that has more in common with a tech platform.
A larger-than-life technological experience that leaves the viewer with some appealing photos certainly sounds like a fun afternoon. Art and technology will continue to grow together. Will this technology-driven art form replace traditional art exhibitions?
12. What sets Alienarium 5 apart from traditional art exhibitions?
A. Allowing visitors to create artworks personally.
B. Offering visitors chances to interact with artists.
C. Engaging visitors in a multisensory art experience.
D. Creating a more welcoming atmosphere for visitors.
13. Why are several projects mentioned in paragraph 3?
A. To display the creative styles of artists.
B. To show artists’ preference for immersive art.
C. To stress the role of technology in art development.
D. To highlight the popularity of immersive exhibitions.
14. What does Kay Watson probably think of FevcrUp’s ticket policy?
A. It is necessary and understandable. B. It can attract more high-end customers.
C. It is unfair to both customers and artists. D. It can be a barrier to free exhibitions.
15. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Art exhibitions in the digital age
B. Technology: a new challenge for artists?
C. A contest between traditional art and modern art
D. Immersive exhibitions: the future of the art world?
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种新的展览方式:沉浸式展览,介绍了其特点以及人们对此的看法。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Look through the gallery window and you’ll see a simulated alien dancing in space. Explore inside, and a disturbing song is played while the smell of woodsmoke dances through the air. Five VR headsets greet visitors, each offering a different simulation of alien life. Put the pair of glasses on and you may find yourself surrounded by electric blue light waves that move in concert like a jellyfish. (透过画廊的窗户,你会看到一个模拟的外星人在太空中跳舞。探索内部,令人不安的歌曲响起,同时空气中弥漫着烟味。五个VR头显迎接游客,每个头显都提供不同的外星生活模拟。戴上这副眼镜,你可能会发现自己被像水母一样移动的蓝色电光波包围着。)”可知,吸引游客参与多感官的艺术体验让Alienarium 5有别于传统的艺术展览。故选C。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“There have already been such immersive exhibitions concerning David Bowie (an English rock star) and ABBA(a Swedish pop band). There are also so many immersive Van Gogh experiences that the phenomenon has its own Wikipedia page. Such projects have exploded worldwide in recent years, varying hugely from well-designed, hi-tech exhibitions to mass-friendly projection shows of these talented artists. (英国摇滚明星大卫·鲍伊和瑞典流行乐队ABBA已经举办过类似的沉浸式展览。还有很多沉浸式的梵高体验,以至于这种现象有了自己的维基百科页面。近年来,这样的项目在世界范围内爆炸式增长,从精心设计的高科技展览到这些才华横溢的艺术家的大众友好的投影展览。)”可知,第3段提到了几个项目是为了强调沉浸式展览的流行。故选D。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段““The pricing is likely a financial barrier to accessibility in the full sense. Nevertheless, it is worth noting that organizing such experiences involves various costs, including the venue rental and staff cost. Ticket prices are typically set to ensure the sustainability of the exhibitions,” says Kay Watson, a researcher working with art and advanced technologies. (“从全面意义上讲,定价可能是一个经济障碍。然而,值得注意的是,组织这样的体验涉及到各种成本,包括场地租金和人员成本。门票价格的设定通常是为了确保展览的可持续性,”从事艺术和先进技术研究的凯·沃森说。)”可知,凯·沃森认为FevcrUp的门票政策是必要的,也是可以理解的。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“A larger-than-life technological experience that leaves the viewer with some appealing photos certainly sounds like a fun afternoon. Art and technology will continue to grow together. Will this technology-driven art form replace traditional art exhibitions? (一个具有传奇色彩的技术体验,给观众留下一些吸引人的照片,听起来像一个有趣的下午。艺术和技术将继续共同成长。这种技术驱动的艺术形式会取代传统的艺术展览吗?)”可知,D选项“沉浸式展览:艺术世界的未来?”最符合文章标题。故选D。
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。
When I was a kid, I took traveling with my parents for granted. Sure, they paid for everything. But they were basically no different from teachers taking us to a field trip. ____16____. For example, they took us to Denali National Park instead of Disney World. And we sometimes stayed at hotels without pools. And they never let us buy anything from the SkyMall catalog (目录).
Of course, some 20 years later, I consider traveling with my parents, now both in their 60s, to be the utmost privilege. ____17____. Neither am I, and every day that passes brings us closer to our last. Fortunately, since graduating college, I’ve been able to cover some serious ground with each of them.
Together my dad and I have looked for the Loch Ness monster in Scotland, photographed wildlife in Grand Teton National Park, and most recently, survived the famously dangerous Drake Passage. Meanwhile, my mom and I have stayed at a $9/night treehouse hostel in Mexico, eaten at a Michelin-starred vegetarian restaurant in Vienna, and most recently, road-tripped through three states.
____18____. After all, even if you’re the apple that fell right under the tree, traveling with the people who raised you isn’t always easy. “____19____,” says Alexis Sherry, a New Jersey-based travel agent. Still, Sherry is seeing an increasing number of clients requesting vacations for more than one generation. They can be difficult to plan, but so far she says she’s had no “disasters,” and often, her clients come back closer than ever.
“Our parents are our earliest attachment bonds,” says Katie d’ Autremont, a licensed professional adviser based in Bozeman, Montana. “It can be healing and fun to rekindle that bond in our adult years and as our adult selves.” She sees traveling together as the perfect opportunity for getting to know each other for who we are now, with “now” being the key word. ____20____.
A. Those memories are golden
B. I know they’re no longer unbeatable
C. After all, as humans, we’re always evolving
D. That’s not to say that all of our trips have been without flaws
E. To my brothers and me, they seemed to be bent on limiting our fun
F. Planning a vacation can be considerably tricky when it involves demanding parents
G. There are always challenges as we are dealing with different physical abilities and interests
【答案】16. E 17. B 18. D 19. G 20. C
【解析】
【导语】本文的体裁是记叙文。作者回忆了和父亲一起在苏格兰寻找尼斯湖水怪,拍摄野生动物,还一起渡过了危险的德雷克海峡;他和母亲一起住在墨西哥的树屋旅馆,品尝维也纳的米其林星级素食餐厅,还一起穿越了三个州。作者认为,即使有时候和父母一起旅行并不容易,但这是一种重新建立联系的好机会。
【16题详解】
根据上文“When I was a kid, I took traveling with my parents for granted.(当我还是个孩子的时候,我认为和父母一起旅行是理所当然的。)”以及下文“For example, they took us to Denali National Park instead of Disney World. And we sometimes stayed at hotels without pools. And they never let us buy anything from the SkyMall catalog(目录).(例如,他们带我们去德纳利国家公园而不是迪士尼世界。我们有时住在没有游泳池的酒店。他们从不允许我们从《空中商城目录》上买任何东西。)”可知,父母的一些行为在作者小时候看来是限制了自己的乐趣,与 E 项“To my brothers and me, they seemed to be bent on limiting our fun(对我和我的兄弟们来说,他们似乎一心想要限制我们的乐趣)”表达的意思一致,故选E项。
【17题详解】
根据上文“Of course, some 20 years later, I consider traveling with my parents, now both in their 60s,to be the utmost privilege.(当然,大约 20 年后,我认为和现在都 60 多岁的父母一起旅行是最大的荣幸。)”以及下文“Neither am I, and every day that passes brings us closer to our last.(我也不是,每过一天,我们就离最后一天更近一步。)”可知,作者意识到父母不再是不可战胜的,与 B 项“I know they’re no longer unbeatable(我知道他们不再是不可战胜的)”表达的意思一致,故选B项。
【18题详解】
根据下文“After all, even if you’re the apple that fell right under the tree, traveling with the people who raised you isn’t always easy.(毕竟,即使你是正好掉在树下的苹果,和养育你的人一起旅行并不总是容易的。)”可知,作者是想说和父母旅行并不都是完美的,与D项“That’s not to say that all of our trips have been without flaws(这并不是说我们所有的旅行都没有缺陷)”表达的意思一致,故选D项。
【19题详解】
根据空前一句提到的“traveling with the people who raised you isn't always easy(和养育你的人一起旅行并不总是容易的)”,以及下文提到的“Her clients come back closer than ever(她的客户回来后比以往任何时候都要亲密)”,可知,旅行中虽然有挑战,但也有可能增进关系,G选项“There are always challenges as we are dealing with different physical abilities and interests(我们在应对不同的身体能力和兴趣时总会遇到挑战)”符合语境,既说明了旅行中的挑战,又与后文的积极结果形成对比,故选G项。
【20题详解】
根据上文“She sees traveling together as the perfect opportunity for getting to know each other for who we are now, with “now” being the key word.(她认为一起旅行是一个完美的机会,让我们了解彼此现在的样子,“现在”是关键词。)”可知,因为现在是关键,所以作为人类,我们总是在不断发展变化的,与C项“After all, as humans, we’re always evolving(毕竟,作为人类,我们总是在不断进化)”表达的意思一致,故选C项。

47. 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。
“We’ve got this,” my friend Alex laughed loudly as we stepped off the library steps. “Absolutely, we’ve got this,” I agreed, performing a little victory dance on the sidewalk once the library door had closed behind us. We had both been nominated (提名) for the Youth Excellence Program, an honor and a chance almost every student was crazy about.
That weekend, Alex and I sat in my living room, carefully completing the program application. We each aimed to show we had all qualities the program valued: academic excellence, leadership, community service, integrity, and civic responsibility. I detailed my devotion to challenging courses, while Alex described his volunteer work at the local food bank. We left no stone unturned, fully confident in our joint success.
The following day, we submitted our applications to the teacher hopefully.
Weeks passed.
Then one day, I received a letter about the project. I rushed out of the classroom and opened it. I felt a stab of sadness right in my heart: my name was not on the list.
At that very moment, I saw Alex came jogging over, waving his letter with a beaming smile. It was clear he had news that contrasted with my own. Without hesitation, I turned away to avoid him. I knew he was eager to share his joy. Perhaps, he even had planned to celebrate the good news together with me.
But I just couldn’t face it: they picked him but refused me. How could fate be so unjust? Anger and despair just blinded me.
That afternoon on the school bus, I sat alone and avoided eye contact with Alex. When the bus arrived at my street, I just jumped off, without saying goodbye or smiling to him. I hurried home, thrusting (塞) the letter into my mom’s hands. I buried my face in the cushions, sobbing uncontrollably as waves of heartache swept over me.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
From that day on, I didn’t talk to Alex.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Finally, Mom talked with me, saying Alex wasn’t the one to blame.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】范文
From that day on, I didn’t talk to Alex. Each day at school, I navigated the hallways with a new route, avoiding the places he frequented. The shared excitement that once connected us was replaced by a painful silence. Alex tried to do something to mend it. One day, he even left me a note, trying to comfort me. But I looked at him coldly, “Leave me alone.” I knew I was hurting him, but the sting of rejection was too fresh, and I couldn’t find the words to bridge the gap.
Finally, Mom talked with me, saying Alex wasn’t the one to blame. She reminded me that success and failure were parts of life’s journey. “You should have congratulated your friend on this instead of feeling pitiful for yourself,” she said seriously. It suddenly struck me that how unfairly I treated Alex. Seized by guilt, I followed mom’s advice and left Alex a note, expressing my feelings—not as an apology, but as a step towards healing and rebuilding our bond. It was time to face my fears and embrace the reality that our friendship could weather this storm.

It is the workshop of Gan Erke, a master of Chinese lacquerware (漆器) and inheritor of the Huizhou lacquerware decoration technique a national-level intangible cultural heritage. Gan devoted his life to creating delicate lacquerware pieces while reviving some elements of the craft that were close to being lost. He aims to promote this ancient art form to new heights while preserving its essence and maintaining China’s world-class standards.
Lacquerware, an ancient decorative technique, involves coating objects with natural juice from lacquer trees. China is considered its birthplace, as evidenced by findings from the Jingtoushan site in East China’s Zhejiang province, revealing that ancient Chinese were among the first to apply lacquer tree sap some 8, 000 years ago.
Creating lacquerware demands patience and preciseness. A single piece requires at least three to four months, or even a year, to complete. The process involves multiple steps — forming the base, sanding, applying coats of colored lacquer, drying, repeating lacquer coats, and drying dozens of times, followed by sanding the finish, buffing, and polishing — resulting in a brilliant surface with dynamic patterns in contrasting shades.
Gan’s journey began at a local arts and crafts factory from 1979 to 1986, where he gained deep insights into the glowing craft’s heritage. He found that although it originated in China, a concerning gap exists between China’s traditional lacquer techniques and contemporary works, particularly compared to Japan’s modern lacquer mastery. This realization inspired Gan to conduct deep research. “Made-in-China lacquerware should stand equal to, if not surpass, any other lacquerware globally,” Gan says.
Determined to glorify Chinese lacquerware to its deserved reputation, Gan embarked on an artistic quest. The 20-character depiction that guided Gan states: “There are patterns like floating clouds, round flowers, and overlapping pine bark textures. There are pieces with a glossy red surface, pursued as the beauty of extreme smoothness.” Gan recalls his early efforts to create an antique-style inkstone box based on ancient texts: “I knew what I needed to achieve, but the path was unclear. Each failed attempt meant grinding off the surface and repainting countless times.”
4. What can be inferred from the creation of lacquerware?
A. The early bird catches the worm. B. Better late than never.
C. Strike while the iron is hot. D. Haste means waste.
5. What is Gan’s attitude towards lacquerware?
A. He hardly relied on ancient techniques to make lacquerware.
B. He was frustrated with the lack of innovation in Chinese lacquerware.
C. He thought the techniques used in China were already the best.
D. He dedicated himself to creating decorative pieces without traditions.
6. Which of the following words can best describe Gan?
A. Innovative. B. Open-minded.
C. Dedicated. D. Conservative.
7. What is the purpose of this passage?
A. To explain the detailed steps in creating lacquerware.
B. To showcase Gan’s journey with Chinese heritage and his efforts,
C. To highlight the gap between traditional and modern lacquerware.

In recent years, scientists have discovered interesting things about animals that suggest they might have awareness: bees have been seen playing with wooden balls, which suggests they might do things just for fun. Similarly, wrasses have shown signs of recognizing themselves in mirrors. They react to their own reflections as if they see themselves as other fish, a behavior previously thought to be seen only in more complex animals, mammals for instance.
Octopuses have also awed researchers with behaviors that suggest they understand their environment and remember past experiences. They avoid places where they’ve been hurt before, showing memory and decision-making based on past events. These discoveries, made in the last five years, show evidence that many species, not just mammals and birds, may have some level of consciousness and personal experiences.
Prompted by these findings, a group of top researchers working on animal cognition came together to issue “The New York Declaration on Animal Consciousness”. This declaration states that birds and mammals definitely experience consciousness and that there’s a realistic possibility that all vertebrates (脊椎动物), including reptiles, amphibians, and fish, share this trait (特点).
It also suggests that even animals without backbones, like insects, might also have some form of consciousness. This shift challenges the long-standing scientific belief that animals are purely mechanical beings without emotions or awareness. It marks a new era where recognizing and understanding the potential awareness of animals could affect how we ethically and legally treat them. Laws about animal welfare, which have historically focused on visible behaviors rather than internal experiences may need to change to reflect this new understanding.
Jonathan Birch, a philosophy professor involved in the declaration, mentioned the excitement among researchers about studying animal minds. He emphasized the importance of considering animals’ ability to sense their surroundings, feel emotions, and possibly have self-awareness. This broader perspective not only improves our scientific knowledge but also raises important ethical questions about how we interact with and care for the animals that share our world.
8. What have scientists discovered recently?
A. Birds have some level of consciousness.
B. Bees play with wooden balls unconsciously.
C. More animals might possess awareness.
D Sea animals are smarter than mammals.
9. What does the underlined phrase “Prompted by” mean in paragraph 3?
A. Warned by. B. Shocked by.
C. Driven by. D. Discouraged by.
10. What can be inferred from the shift in paragraph 4?
A. Animals were thought to be emotional.
B. Intense animal protection is expected.
C. Animals were neglected and mistreated.
D. Regulations may begin to consider animals’ inner world.
11. Why does the author mention Birch’s words in the end?
A. To prove the declaration to be correct.
B. To analyze how animals’ sensation works.
C To highlight the significance of the discovery.
D. To call on people to protect endangered animals.
D
Look through the gallery window and you’ll see a simulated alien dancing in space. Explore inside, and a disturbing song is played while the smell of woodsmoke dances through the air. Five VR headsets greet visitors, each offering a different simulation of alien life. Put the pair of glasses on and you may find yourself surrounded by electric blue light waves that move in concert like a jellyfish.
This experience is part of Alienarium 5, an art exhibition by a French artist. Unlike traditional art exhibitions typically just involving viewing art from a distance, this kind of art brings audiences extraordinary experiences.
There have already been such immersive exhibitions concerning David Bowie (an English rock star) and ABBA (a Swedish pop band). There are also so many immersive Van Gogh experiences that the phenomenon has its own Wikipedia page. Such projects have exploded worldwide in recent years, varying hugely from well-designed, hi-tech exhibitions to mass-friendly projection shows of these talented artists.
FeverUp, an entertainment platform that organizes similar exhibitions, asks Internet users to vote on which artworks they’d like to be immersed in. The company wants to “democratize” culture and make art “accessible”. Yet a regular ticket to the Van Gogh experience costs £25, and a VIP ticket which includes a poster and a 12-minute show is around £40.
“The pricing is likely a financial barrier to accessibility in the full sense. Nevertheless it is worth noting that organizing such experiences involves various costs, including the venue rental and staff cost. Ticket prices are typically set to ensure the sustainability of the exhibitions, ” says Kay Watson, a researcher working with art and advanced technologies.
Anyway, the appeal of immersive exhibitions won’t be overshadowed by the financial barrier. Theoretically, you could secure the licensing of an art team’s intellectual property, reproduce it on an industrial scale, and exhibit it anywhere. It’s a model that has more in common with a tech platform.
A larger-than-life technological experience that leaves the viewer with some appealing photos certainly sounds like a fun afternoon. Art and technology will continue to grow together. Will this technology-driven art form replace traditional art exhibitions?
12. What sets Alienarium 5 apart from traditional art exhibitions?
A. Allowing visitors to create artworks personally.
B. Offering visitors chances to interact with artists.
C. Engaging visitors in a multisensory art experience.
D. Creating a more welcoming atmosphere for visitors.
13. Why are several projects mentioned in paragraph 3?
A. To display the creative styles of artists.
B. To show artists’ preference for immersive art.
C. To stress the role of technology in art development.
D. To highlight the popularity of immersive exhibitions.
14. What does Kay Watson probably think of FevcrUp’s ticket policy?
A. It is necessary and understandable. B. It can attract more high-end customers.
C. It is unfair to both customers and artists. D. It can be a barrier to free exhibitions.
15. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Art exhibitions in the digital age
B. Technology: a new challenge for artists?
C. A contest between traditional art and modern art
D. Immersive exhibitions: the future of the art world?

“We’ve got this,” my friend Alex laughed loudly as we stepped off the library steps. “Absolutely, we’ve got this,” I agreed, performing a little victory dance on the sidewalk once the library door had closed behind us. We had both been nominated (提名) for the Youth Excellence Program, an honor and a chance almost every student was crazy about.
That weekend, Alex and I sat in my living room, carefully completing the program application. We each aimed to show we had all qualities the program valued: academic excellence, leadership, community service, integrity, and civic responsibility. I detailed my devotion to challenging courses, while Alex described his volunteer work at the local food bank. We left no stone unturned, fully confident in our joint success.
The following day, we submitted our applications to the teacher hopefully.
Weeks passed.
Then one day, I received a letter about the project. I rushed out of the classroom and opened it. I felt a stab of sadness right in my heart: my name was not on the list.
At that very moment, I saw Alex came jogging over, waving his letter with a beaming smile. It was clear he had news that contrasted with my own. Without hesitation, I turned away to avoid him. I knew he was eager to share his joy. Perhaps, he even had planned to celebrate the good news together with me.
But I just couldn’t face it: they picked him but refused me. How could fate be so unjust? Anger and despair just blinded me.
That afternoon, on the school bus, I sat alone and avoided eye contact with Alex. When the bus arrived at my street, I just jumped off, without saying goodbye or smiling to him. I hurried home, thrusting (塞) the letter into my mom’s hands. I buried my face in the cushions, sobbing uncontrollably as waves of heartache swept over me.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
From that day on, I didn’t talk to Alex.

Finally, Mom talked with me, saying Alex wasn’t the one to blame.
