An Artist Who Paints Feelings
主题:人与社会(文学、艺术与体育)
Georgie Mason is a landscape painter.She now paints in a studio at Stepney City Farm in London.At the farm,geese,goats,
donkeys and sheep remind her of her childhood.Green spaceand nature are in her blood.
To build her paintings up to a surface which is varied in color,texture,and shine,she uses a wide variety of unusual materials,from acrylic and oil paints to sand,mud and straw collected from the farm and cardboard from the bins.She says her approach is based on her feelings,and she uses everything from washed-up brushes to old T-shirts,her fingers,sticks,sponges,and forks.
As well as taking taking inspiration from the natural world,Mason turns to her“inner world”to come up with new things to paint.“You need both types of inspiration in order to create,”she talks about her creative process.“You need the content up in your head from what you've seen or from your memories or imagination.But your body must be ready to turn it into a painting,because otherwise it just sits there in your head.You have to have the actual motivation to express.I dance in the studio and then I'll stand back and flick paint or use my fingers.I get really involved.Inspiration is a combination of every experience I've ever had.”
Mason also teaches art classes for under-12s.Each class begins with a wander around the farm,sketching(画……的素描)things they see including the animals.Then in the studio there are warm-up exercises,such as doodling(涂鸦)to music or drawing each other without taking the pen off the page.Classes then work together on a big piece inspired by the farm.“Above all,”saysMason,“I want to give young people the freedom to be themselves.”She says people should use art to express their own unique voice,and her classes are all about experimenting and having fun.“Forme,that is the most important thing.”

Creativity is a unique force that drives innovation and artistic expression.For many,it begins in 1 ,a time when the mind is free from limitations and imagination runs wild.Children often have the 2 to explore new ideas without fear of failure,making it the perfect stage for creativity to flourish.
In the world of art,creativity can often be gained in a(n) 3 .It is more than just a physical space;it's where an artist's ideas come to life.Whether it's painting,sculpture,or digital art,this place provides the space to play with new techniques. 4
in this environment allows artists to develop their skills without pressure.
5 is full of colors,textures,and forms that can stimulate new ideas.Sometimes, 6 elements,such as a stormy sky or a fallen leaf,can be used in a work of art to make it colorful.The 7 of natural elements and an artist's imagination leads to the creation of something truly unique.Many artists believe that 8 is the best teacher when it comes to understanding color and form.

达”(express)和转化灵感,因此D选项最准确。

节课从在农场里闲逛开始,画下他们看到的东西,包括动物。)
排除干扰项:
A(随着音乐跳舞)是Mason自己做的,不是学生。B(做热身练习)和D(听音乐互相画)是在工作室里”(in the studio)进行

II.Complete the passage by choosing the most appropriate word for each blank.
1.B
线索:后文说"imagination runs wild"(想象力狂野奔放),且前文提到"free from limitations'"(不受限制)。这通常是形
容童年(childhood的特质。
2.B
线索:前文说"free from limitations'"(不受限制),后文说"without fear of failure'”(不怕失败)。这正是拥有自由(freedom)
去探索的状态。
3.C
线索:前文说"In the world of art'"(在艺术世界),后文说"physical space'"(物理空间)且"ideas come to life'"(想法变为现
实)。这是艺术家工作的工作室(studio)。
4.A
线索:后文说"allows artists to develop their skills'"(让艺术家发展技能)。只有练习Practicing)才能发展技能。
5.B
线索:后文列举了"colors,.textures,and forms"(颜色、质地、形状),以及下一句提到的"stormy sky or a fallen leaf”(暴风
雨的天空或落叶)。这些显然属于大自然Nature)。
6.D
线索:前文提到"stimulate new ideas'"(激发新点子)。后文举例"stormy sky or a fallen leaf'(暴风雨的天空或落叶)作为
艺术素材,这在传统绘画中是不常见的,属于不寻常的nusual))元素(呼应阅读文章中Mason使用非常规材料)。
7.A
线索:句子结构是"The of natural elements and an artist''s imagination'"(自然元素与艺术家想象力的..)。这两者结合
在一起创造了独特的东西,所以是结合(comb ination)。
8.A
线索:后文说"when it comes to understanding color and form'"(当涉及理解颜色和形式时)。要理解颜色和形式,最好的
老师是观察(observation).
9.c
线索:后文解释说"expressing emotions,thoughts,and experiences"(表达情感、思想和经历)。这些都是属于人的内心(inner)
世界(呼应阅读文章中Mason提到的"inner world'")。
10.c
线索:搭配"resonate with”(与..产生共鸣)。艺术作品要让创作者和观看者都产生深刻的共鸣(resonates)。
11.D
线索:后文说"share one's true self'(分享真实的自我)。展示真实的自我往往意味着暴露自己的弱点或脆弱,这需要勇
气,所以是脆弱的/坦诚的(ulnerable)。
12.C
线索:后文说"The willingness to try something new'"(尝试新事物的意愿)。这就是实验(experimenting)的精神。
13.B
线索:前文说"Every attempt,whether successful or not'"(每一次尝试,无论成功与否)。在创造性旅程中,即使失败也是
有意义的,所以是有价值的(valuable)一步。
14.C
线索:短语"turn into reality'"(把..变成现实)。对于艺术家来说,就是把脑海中的灵感(inspiration)变成现实的作品。
15.c
线索:句子"Everyone can his own unique flower'"(每个人都能..他自己独特的花朵)。虽然这是个比喻,但结合全
文艺术创作的主题,用描绘/画(paint)最贴切,寓意描绘出自己的人生。
III.Translate the following sentences from English into Chinese.
1.她喜欢漫步于老城街道,去发现那些隐藏的美景。
核心词汇:wander:动词,意为“漫步、闲逛、徘徊'。在这里带有放松、无目的游荡的意境,翻译为漫步”比“走”更有文
学色彩。hidden beauty:名词短语,直译为“隐藏的美”,在中文里通常意译为隐藏的美景”或隐秘之美”,更符合中文表
达习惯。
翻译技巧(非谓语动词的处理):
句末的discovering hidden beauty是现在分词短语作伴随状语。在英汉翻译中,遇到这种结构,我们通常可以将其顺译为“去
发现.”或“从而发现.”,使其成为与前面动作并列或递进的连贯动作,这样读起来更加自然流畅。
2.团队齐心协力解决这个问题,并想出了一个解决方案。
核心词汇:work together:意为“合作、共同努力”,在中文里可以用四字成语“齐心协力”或“通力合作”来表达,以提升译
文的地道感。come up with:高频动词短语,意为想出、提出(主意、计划、答案等)”。
翻译技巧(目的状语与并列结构):
to solve the problem and come up with a solution是不定式短语作目的状语。在中文里,我们习惯把目的放在动作之后,因
此直接顺译为(为了)解决这个问题,并想出了”。
注意solve(解决)和come up with(想出)是并列关系,翻译时可以用并字连接,使逻辑更紧密。
3在做决定之前,倾听他人的意见并予以考虑,这一点非常重要。
核心词汇:consider:动词,意为“考虑、体凉'。在这里翻译为予以考虑”或“认真考量”会显得更正式。make a decision:
固定搭配,意为“做决定”。
翻译技巧(形式主语与语序调整):
这是一个典型的Itis+adj.+to do sth..句型。It是形式主语,真正的主语是后面的to listen to others and consider their opinions..
这一长串不定式短语。
在翻译时,为了符合中文“先条件/背景,后结论的逻辑习惯,我们通常采用“外分法”或语序倒置:先把before making a
decision(在做决定之前)提到句首作为时间状语,接着翻译真正的主语动作(倾听并考虑他人意见),最后再点出结论
(这一点非常重要)。这样处理能有效避免译文出现“去倾听别人.…是重要的”这种生硬的“翻译腔”。外刊阅读搞定高考英语必备基本词汇05
