These chambers not only offer a glimpse into Monet’s existence, but also bestow upon the visitors a trove of novel encounters and perspectives on his life, his artistic endeavors, and his celebrated creations.(为了深入了解这位法国大师的世界，顾客们被领进了三个主题展厅，每个展厅都有自己的特色。这些展室不仅提供了对莫奈生活的一瞥，而且还向游客提供了他的生活，他的艺术努力和他著名的创作的新遭遇和观点的宝库。)”可知，在三个主题展厅中，游客将体验到一次独特的旅程，深入了解莫奈的世界。故选A。 3．细节理解题。根据第五段“The exhibition commences from the month of March in the year 2024.(展览从2024年3月开始。)”和第六段“The operational hours are as follows: On Wednesdays and Thursdays, the doors open at the tenth hour of the morning and close at the seventh hour of the evening. Fridays extend the closing time to the eighth hour of the evening, while Saturdays commence at the ninth hour of the morning and conclude at the eighth hour of the evening.

He taught me how to blend colors and use different materials. Whenever we felt inspired, we set out all our materials and painted what our hearts desired. My father grew up in a small village in the Dominican Republic. Despite not having many materials available, he created art with whatever he had. My father saved his money to buy paints and colored pencils to draw on the walls around his home. When he was 15, he arrived in America alone and stayed with his aunt in Florida for a while before finishing high school in New York with another aunt. He studied very hard. Eventually, my father was able to obtain his citizenship. As I got older, he continued to give me lessons, teaching me different brush strokes and how to take care of my art supplies. He taught me to find beauty in everything and everyone around me. I grew to love drawing people, as I could highlight the physical features that make everyone unique and beautiful. It wasn’t until I began looking carefully into my father’s paintings and the work of popular artists on Instagram that I started to be more critical of my work. I started to worry that I could never live up to my father’s talent. My simple, two-dimensional drawings fell flat compared to his realistic landscapes. Going through my sketchbooks and portfolios, I found fault in all my drawings. Art was my favorite thing in the world but I started to believe I wasn’t good at it. Instead of working toward improving, I decided to give up drawing. My father noticed that I had been drawing and painting less and told me, “Mia, you should audition for the school. I wish I’d had an opportunity to study art like this when I was a kid.” My father’s bravery and strength are things that I desire to have. So over the next few months, I worked on my portfolio. Looking back at my pictures, I can see how much I have improved since then. The school must have seen potential in my drawings because I got in! It was eye-opening to attend a college that specializes in the arts. I learned to embrace my individuality and my talent. I have become more open about sharing my artworks and receiving constructive criticism, which raises my self-belief in my art. 4．Why does the author introduce her father’s experience in paragraph 2? A．To prove that art is a way to fight poverty. B．To illustrate the roots of her father’s influence on her. C．To criticize the lack of educational chances in rural areas. D．To contrast her life with the difficulties her father experienced. 5．What do the underlined words “fell flat” in paragraph 4 mean? A．Lacked visual appeal. B．Outshone other works. C．Had complex structures. D．Looked incredibly realistic. 6．What kind of person is the author’s father? A．Brave and carefree. B．Creative but stubborn. C．Ambitious but dependent. D．Persistent and supportive. 7．What can we learn from the last paragraph? A．Art is about following established rules. B．Talent guarantees admission to art programs. C．Confidence comes from accepting imperfection. D．Progress can be achieved through trial and error. 【答案】4．B 5．A 6．D 7．C 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。本文讲述了作者受父亲影响学习绘画，在经历自我怀疑后，在父亲的鼓励下重拾信心，最终进入艺术院校，学会接纳自己的个性和才华的故事。 4．推理判断题。根据第二段“My father grew up in a small village in the Dominican Republic. Despite not having many materials available, he created art with whatever he had. My father saved his money to buy paints and colored pencils to draw on the walls around his home. When he was 15, he arrived in America alone and stayed with his aunt in Florida for a while before finishing high school in New York with another aunt. He studied very hard. Eventually, my father was able to obtain his citizenship. ( 我父亲在多米尼加共和国的一个小村庄长大。尽管没有很多可用的材料，但他还是用他拥有的任何东西创作艺术。我父亲攒钱买了颜料和彩色铅笔，在他家的墙上画画。15岁时，他独自来到美国，在佛罗里达和姑姑住了一段时间，然后在纽约和另一位姑姑一起完成了高中学业。他学习非常努力。最终，我父亲获得了公民身份。)”可知，作者介绍她父亲的经历是为了说明她父亲对艺术的热爱和追求是如何影响她的，即她父亲对她产生影响的根源。故选B。 5．词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“It wasn’t until I began looking carefully into my father’s paintings and the work of popular artists on Instagram that I started to be more critical of my work. I started to worry that I could never live up to my father’s talent. (直到我开始仔细研究我父亲的画作以及Instagram上受欢迎艺术家的作品时，我才开始对自己的作品更加挑剔。我开始担心自己永远无法达到父亲那样的才华水平。)”可知，作者觉得自己简单、二维的画作与她父亲逼真的风景画相比是缺乏视觉吸引力的。由此可知，fell flat意为“缺乏视觉吸引力”。故选A。 6．推理判断题。根据第二段“He studied very hard. Eventually, my father was able to obtain his citizenship. (他学习非常努力。最终，我父亲获得了公民身份。)”和第五段“My father noticed that I had been drawing and painting less and told me, “Mia, you should audition for the school. I wish I'd had an opportunity to study art like this when I was a kid.” (我父亲注意到我画画少了，告诉我：“米娅，你应该去学校面试。我希望我小时候有机会像这样学习艺术。”)”可知，作者的父亲在艰苦的条件下依然坚持艺术创作，并努力学习获得了公民身份，这显示出他的坚持和毅力。同时，他鼓励作者追求自己的艺术梦想，这显示出他的支持态度。故选D。 7．推理判断题。根据最后一段“It was eye-opening to attend a college that specializes in the arts. I learned to embrace my individuality and my talent. I have become more open about sharing my artworks and receiving constructive criticism, which raises my self-belief in my art. (上一所专门教授艺术的大学让我大开眼界。我学会了接纳自己的个性和才华。我变得更加愿意分享自己的作品，并接受建设性的批评，这增强了我对自己艺术的自信。)”可知，作者学会了接纳自己的个性和才华，变得更加自信，这说明自信来自接受自己的不完美。故选C。 C Most students, regardless of age or background, truly enjoy participating in art. The appealing aspects of art are what draw our attention and keep us intently focused. Integrating art into the classroom is no different. Students who participate in art strengthen their focus skills. 8 For visual art, that problem may be determining which art tools or materials will effectively create the picture that they have in their minds. For performance art, students may need accurate timing to come in on cue. Regardless of the art medium, students must stay in tune with what is happening in order to successfully complete their work. In continuing with student enjoyment of art, students find art as an outlet for self-expression and creativity. 9 Students can create whatever they desire within the areas of their imagination. If they can see it, they can create it. Even the most timid of students can express themselves through art. Increased engagement and motivation equals increased determination and perseverance. When students start an art project, they are typically more determined to see it completed. Most elementary teachers can prove the fact that many students are not happy when their work of art is interrupted before it has been completed. 10 From the development of self-expression and creativity comes increased student confidence! 11 Students develop a greater sense of self by expressing themselves openly and in their own way. It is also quite rewarding for students to share their art with others, thereby developing their interpersonal skills. 12 Participation in art is highly beneficial to student performance in the classroom. Art requires use of multiple parts of the brain, thus, providing better overall brain usage in students. A．There are no limits with art. B．Art can surely make students smarter. C．Students colorfully write out the word. D．There are no right or wrong ways to create art. E．Students must concentrate on the “problem” at hand. F．Teachers should combine art with learning more carefully. G．Students wish to realise their ideas through art without being delayed. 【答案】8．E 9．A 10．G 11．D 12．B 【导语】本文是说明文。文章介绍了艺术对学生的学习和个人发展有多方面的积极影响。 8．根据前文“Students who participate in art strengthen their focus skills.(参与艺术活动的学生能够增强他们的专注力)”可知，本段讲述参与艺术活动增强专注力，结合下文“For visual art, that problem may be determining which art tools or materials will effectively create the picture that they have in their minds. For performance art, students may need accurate timing to come in on cue. (对于视觉艺术来说，这个问题可能是决定哪些艺术工具或材料能有效地创造出他们心中的画面。对于行为艺术，学生可能需要准确的时间来提示)”讲述不同专业学生需要处理的“问题”可推断，空处提到了要专注于手头的“问题”。E项“学生必须集中注意力在手头的‘问题’上。”符合本段主题和语境，故选E。 9．后文“Students can create whatever they desire within the areas of their imagination.(学生可以在他们的想象范围内创造他们想要的任何东西)”讲述学生可以在他们的想象范围内创造任何他们想要的东西，这充分说明艺术没有限制。所以A项“艺术没有极限”符合题意。故选A。 10．根据前文“When students start an art project, they are typically more determined to see it completed. Most elementary teachers can prove the fact that many students are not happy when their work of art is interrupted before it has been completed.( 当学生开始一个艺术项目时，他们通常更决心完成它。大多数小学老师可以证明，许多学生在他们的艺术作品完成之前被打断时会感到不高兴)”可知，此处讲述了学生开始一个艺术项目通常有决心完成它，被打断时会感到不高兴。因此推断G项“学生希望通过艺术实现他们的想法，而不受延误”符合语境，故选G。 11．前文“From the development of self-expression and creativity comes increased student confidence!( 从自我表达和创造力的发展中，学生的自信心也随之增强！)”说明通过艺术学生的自信心得以增强，后文“Students develop a greater sense of self by expressing themselves openly and in their own way. It is also quite rewarding for students to share their art with others, thereby developing their interpersonal skills. (学生通过公开并以自己的方式表达自己，发展了更强的自我意识。学生分享他们的艺术作品也有助于发展他们的人际交往技能)”说明学生通过艺术表达自己，增强自我意识，分享艺术作品也有助于增进人际交往技能，因此推断每个人都可以用自己的方式创作艺术来表达自己。可见，创作艺术的方式没有对错之分。D项“创造艺术的方式没有对错之分”符合题意。故选D。 12．根据后文“Participation in art is highly beneficial to student performance in the classroom. Art requires use of multiple parts of the brain, thus, providing better overall brain usage in students.(参与艺术对学生在课堂上的表现非常有益。艺术需要大脑的多个部分协同工作，从而为学生提供更好的整体大脑使用)”可知，后文提到参与艺术活动对学生在课堂上的表现非常有益。艺术需要使用大脑的多个部分，这促使学生能够更好地使用整个大脑，从而使学生变得更加聪明。可见，艺术能让学生变得更加聪明。空处位于句首，为本段主旨句，B项“艺术肯定能使学生更聪明”总结下文。故选B。 二、完形填空 I took my first major trip alone in my early twenties.

My father grew up in a small village in the Dominican Republic. Despite not having many materials available, he created art with whatever he had.
