Kasing Lung: Artist behind popular dolls 【参考答案】CDABC 【导语】本文主要讲了中国香港艺术家Kasing Lung受童话和儿童想象力启发创作的怪物角色Labubu，其经Pop Mart制成盲盒玩偶后风靡全球，不仅产生了广泛积极影响，也彰显了创造力连接世界的价值。 1. 细节理解题。根据“Inspired by fairy tales and children’s wild imagination, artist Kasing Lung from Hong Kong, China created such an elf-like character in his book series The Monsters in 2015, along with other monster characters.”可知，Labubu的灵感来源于孩子们的想象力。故选C。 2. 细节理解题。根据“The dolls are mainly sold in blind boxes, so you won’t know which one you’ll get, making it a surprise.”可知，因为买家不知道盒子里是哪一款玩偶，所以购买Labubu被描述为“一个惊喜”。故选D。 3. 推理判断题。根据下文“In Tokyo, its creative designs inspire young artists. In Bangkok, it has become a symbol of cultural exchange. Across the ocean in New York, fans share their collections and artworks online actively.”可知，这一段主要讲世界各地的人都喜欢Labubu。故选A。 4. 词句猜测题。根据“Though the fun of opening blind boxes brings delight, it’s important to enjoy them wisely and avoid overspending or compulsive collecting.”可知，“delight”在这里和“fun”呼应，意思是“极大的快乐、愉悦”，和选项B的释义完全吻合。故选B。 5. 最佳标题题。根据全文内容，尤其是“Labubu’s success shows how creativity connects people worldwide.”可知，文章主要介绍了Labubu这个小怪物背后的巨大创造力。故选C。 重点词汇梳理 messy /ˈmesi/ adj. 凌乱的，脏乱的 inspire /ɪnˈspaɪə(r)/ v. 激励，赋予灵感 fairy tale 童话故事 fictional /ˈfɪkʃənl/ adj. 虚构的 blind box 盲盒 compulsive /kəmˈpʌlsɪv/ adj. 难以制止的 长难句解析 原句1：（第二段第一句） Inspired by fairy tales and children’s wild imagination, artist Kasing Lung from Hong Kong, China created such an elf-like character in his book series The Monsters in 2015, along with other monster characters. 译文：受童话故事和孩子们天马行空的想象力启发，来自中国香港的艺术家龙家升在 2015 年的《怪物》系列书中，创造了这个像精灵一样的角色以及其他怪物角色。 分析：句子主干：artist Kasing Lung created such an elf-like character。Inspired by fairy tales and children’s wild imagination 是过去分词短语作原因状语，说明创造角色的灵感来源。along with other monster characters 是介词短语作伴随状语，补充说明同时创造的其他角色。 原句2：（第五段第二句）Though the fun of opening blind boxes brings delight, it’s important to enjoy them wisely and avoid overspending or compulsive collecting. 译文：尽管开盲盒的乐趣能带来愉悦，但明智地享受它们、避免过度消费或冲动收藏也很重要。 分析：it’s important to enjoy them wisely and avoid overspending or compulsive collecting，其中 it 是形式主语，真正的主语是后面的不定式短语 to enjoy them wisely and avoid overspending or compulsive collecting。Though the fun of opening blind boxes brings delight 是让步状语从句，说明主句内容的转折背景。在不定式短语中，and 连接两个并列的动词 enjoy 和 avoid；overspending or compulsive collecting 是 avoid 的宾语，由 or 连接两个并列的动名词短语。 译文 你知道 Labubu 吗？它是一个长相滑稽的怪物，有着大大的眼睛、锋利的牙齿和乱糟糟的头发。它总是想帮忙，却常常事与愿违。 受童话故事和孩子们天马行空的想象力启发，来自中国香港的艺术家龙家升在 2015 年的《怪物》系列书中，创造了这个像精灵一样的角色以及其他怪物角色。后来，中国玩具公司泡泡玛特将这些角色做成玩偶，让它们 “活” 了过来。 Labubu 在 2024 年末至 2025 年初风靡全球。如今，它不仅是一个虚构角色，还指代整个系列，包括来自其星球的不同角色，如 zimomo、Tycoco 和 Mokoko。有些玩偶看起来很像，很难区分，但收藏者们能分辨出其中的差别。这些玩偶主要以盲盒形式销售，所以你不会知道自己会拿到哪一个，这也让它充满了惊喜。 在东京，它富有创意的设计激励着年轻艺术家；在曼谷，它已成为文化交流的象征；在大洋彼岸的纽约，粉丝们积极在网上分享自己的藏品和艺术作品。“Labubu 让我想起了童年的创造力，” 一位 Labubu 粉丝说，“现在我和朋友们甚至会设计我们自己的怪物角色！” Labubu 的成功表明，创造力如何将世界各地的人们连接在一起。尽管开盲盒的乐趣能带来愉悦，但明智地享受它们、避免过度消费或冲动收藏也很重要。毕竟，真正的价值在于欣赏艺术，而不仅仅是收藏。 Passage B（ZootopiaⅡ） After a nine-year wait, the popular cartoon movie Zootopia finally got its next story.

This art form combines modern technology with traditional art techniques, such as paper-cutting, shadow puppet performances and ink-wash painting. Films in this style often contain many themes from Chinese art, literature and culture. Piggy Eats Watermelon from 1958 was the first paper-cut animation. In this groundbreaking short film, Zhu Bajie and the other characters come to life on screen just like shadow puppets. The film amazed audiences across China with its bright colours and lively animation style. Two years later, another important breakthrough came with the first ink-wash animated film, Baby Tadpoles Look for Their Mother. This short film was influenced by the famous artist Qi Baishi, and it looks exactly like a traditional ink painting. The film was very successful, and won several national and international awards. Besides traditional art techniques, Chinese animated films also reflect traditional Chinese culture. Ancient stories are a common theme, and it is no surprise that the much-loved characters from the adventure novel Journey to the West often appear in animation. Havoc in Heaven from 1961 tells the story of the Monkey King, and is perhaps the most famous Chinese animated film. It combines traditional Chinese painting techniques with the sound effects from Beijing opera. Today, Chinese animators continue to explore new methods of film-making. Films like Monkey King: Hero is Back were made with advanced 3D animation software. With the help of the latest computer technology, such as artificial intelligence (AI), film-makers are bringing the heroes from classic Chinese stories into the 21st century. 1. What is the main idea of the first paragraph? A. Chinese animation only uses paper-cutting techniques. B. Chinese animation has a short and unimportant history. C. Chinese animation mixes modern technology with traditional Chinese art and culture. D. Chinese animation copies styles from Western films. 2. According to the article, what was special about the film Baby Tadpoles Look for Their Mother? A. It was the first paper-cut animation. B. It was the longest Chinese animated film. C. It was the first ink-wash animated film and looked like a traditional painting. D. It was the first film to use 3D technology. 3. The underlined word “groundbreaking” most likely means ________. A. boring and traditional B. breaking the ground literally C. original and influential, doing something for the first time D. very loud and noisy 4. According to the article, what is a common source of stories for Chinese animated films? A. Modern science fiction novels. B. Ancient Chinese stories and literature. C. American comic books. D. European fairy tales. 5. What does the article suggest about the future of Chinese animation? A. It will stop using any traditional methods. B. It will only make films about the Monkey King. C. It continues to develop by using new technologies like AI and 3D software. D. It is no longer popular in China. 【参考答案】1. C 2. C 3. C 4. B 5. C 【导语】本文主要介绍了中国动画从皮影戏到3D电影的发展历史。 1. 主旨大意题。根据“This art form combines modern technology…contain many themes from Chinese art, literature and culture.”可知，中国动画融合了现代技术与传统艺术以及文化主题的特点。故选C。 2. 细节理解题。根据“Two years later, another important breakthrough came with the first ink-wash animated film, Baby Tadpoles Look for Their Mother.”和“and it looks exactly like a traditional ink painting”可知，《小蝌蚪找妈妈》是首部水墨动画电影，它看起来很像传统水墨画。故选C。 3. 词句猜测题。根据“Piggy Eats Watermelon from 1958 was the first paper-cut animation.”可知，作为“第一部”剪纸动画，它的意义是开创性的。因此“groundbreaking”在此语境中意为“开创性的、突破性的”。故选C。 4. 细节理解题。根据“Besides traditional art techniques, Chinese animated films also reflect traditional Chinese culture. Ancient stories are a common theme”可知，中国动画的故事来源于中国古代故事和文学作品。故选B。 5. 推理判断题。根据“With the help of the latest computer technology, such as artificial intelligence (AI), film-makers are bringing the heroes from classic Chinese stories into the 21st century.”可知，在人工智能等最新计算机技术的帮助下，电影制作人正将经典中国故事中的英雄人物带入21世纪，说明了中国动画通过运用新技术面向未来发展的趋势。故选C。 Passage 3 Chinese ink-wash animation (动画片) Nobody has been a big success this summer.
