A．Submit original artwork. B．Submit artwork with a unique tag. C．Submit different types of artwork. D．Submit only one piece of artwork. 解析　细节理解题。根据Details and requirements部分中“Entries must be a piece of artwork created by the entrants themselves.(参赛作品必须是参赛者自己创作的作品。)”可知，提交原创作品是对参赛作品的要求之一。故选A。 答案　A 3．What is Teen Ink?

D．An art museum. 解析　细节理解题。根据第二段中“You may even see your artwork in future issues of Teen Ink magazine.(你甚至可以在未来的Teen Ink杂志上看到你的艺术作品。)”可知，Teen Ink是一本杂志。故选B。 答案　B B By the time Nalin Kamat was 13，the Toronto teen was well on his way to becoming a working artist.He had already had his first show at a local art centre，showcasing his series titled Dispositions，which illustrated his own growth during adolescence. Yet he wanted more—specifically to start showing his work in a juried exhibition，where a group of art experts would evaluate and select pieces in a competitive review process.That's when he hit an obstacle，discovering in the very last line of a multi-page application that the minimum age for submission was 18. That rejection became a motivation for creation.“I thought it'd be really cool if I could provide the opportunity to more young artists，” says Nalin，now 15.With the support of his parents，in January 2023，Nalin rented a storefront and founded Little EGG Gallery，which is now profitable enough to make ends meet by charging a small hanging fee for any displayed work.In turn，Little EGG helps promote young talent by showcasing their work. Not long after opening，David Griffin，a professor and artist of Ontario College of Art and Design University stepped into the gallery and met Nalin.Griffin regards him as someone special：a strong young artist with a really excellent idea—creating a space for showing the natural genius of young people.It was a void (空白) in the art world.There Nalin asked Griffin to help judge an upcoming competition.The first juried show was last spring，and five-year-old Jack Gamble won for his abstract painting titled Pokemon. As Nalin was busy with school，life and his own art，Little EGG is mostly open by appointment only，but he's still committed to growing it with seasonal and themed shows scheduled a few times a year. [语篇解读]　本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了15岁的纳林·卡马特因为无法参加评审展览而受挫，但这激发了他为更多年轻艺术家提供展示机会的决心，在父母的支持下，他创办了Little EGG Gallery。 4．What do we know about Nalin Kamat from the first two paragraphs? A．He drew teenagers' growth in his work. B．He became a working artist when aged 13. C．He was disqualified for a juried exhibition. D．He showed his series at the capital art centre. 解析　细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的“By the time Nalin Kamat was 13，the Toronto teen was well on his way to becoming a working artist.”和第二段“That's when he hit an obstacle，discovering in the very last line of a multi-page application that the minimum age for submission was 18.”可知，纳林因为年龄问题而无法获得参加评审展览的资格。故选C。 答案　C 5．Why did Nalin decide to set up Little EGG Gallery? A．To promote artists by showcasing their work. B．To form the connection between different galleries. C．To expand his own business through themed shows. D．To show young artists' talent by offering them a stage. 解析　推理判断题。根据文章第三段中的“‘I thought it'd be really cool if I could provide the opportunity to more young artists，’ says Nalin，now 15.With the support of his parents，in January 2023，Nalin rented a storefront and founded Little EGG Gallery，which is now profitable enough to make ends meet by charging a small hanging fee for any displayed work.”可知，他创办Little EGG Gallery的目的是给年轻艺术家提供一个展示才华的舞台。故选D。 答案　D 6．Which of the following can best describe Nalin's idea of opening the gallery? A．Groundbreaking. B．Short-lived. C．Well-received. D．Unpromising. 解析　推理判断题。根据文章第三段“That rejection became a motivation for creation...which is now profitable enough to make ends meet by charging a small hanging fee for any displayed work.”和第四段“...a strong young artist with a really excellent idea—creating a space for showing the natural genius of young people.It was a void (空白) in the art world.”可知，纳林想要为更多的年轻艺术家提供机会，于是他租了一个店面并创办了Little EGG Gallery，这是一个创新的想法，因此可以用groundbreaking (开创性的)来形容他的想法。故选A。 答案　A 7．What kind of person is Nalin Kamat according to the text? A．Helpful and cautious. B．Devoted and creative. C．Humorous and intelligent. D．Knowledgeable and ambitious. 解析　推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是由文章倒数第二段“...a strong young artist with a really excellent idea—creating a space for showing the natural genius of young people.It was a void (空白) in the art world.”可知，纳林在13岁时就举办了自己的画展，并且因为无法参加评审展览而创办了Little EGG Gallery来展示年轻艺术家的作品，结合格里芬的评价可知，他具有创造力并且对艺术很投入，因此选项B最符合他的特点。故选B。 答案　B C Learning to forgive those who have “wronged us” may not always be easy，but it's definitely worth it.Here's why. First，forgiveness has absolutely nothing to do with the other person at all.Forgiveness is about one thing and one thing only：it's about how you feel.This is why it doesn't matter if the offense was large or small.When you hold on to the anger，when you get stuck in blaming the other person and refuse to move on，you are hurting no one but yourself. You may have been taught to “turn the other cheek”，which can be interpreted as letting those who have harmed you in some way walk all over you.Don't fight back，and just let it happen.But is that really what we're supposed to do? No.Forgiving is neither about playing the martyr (自我牺牲的人) or victim，nor about being a doormat (忍气吞声的人).You can forgive what others have done to you，but you should not sacrifice your own interests. For example，should you let your colleague get away with taking credit for your work，while you sit in silence? No.First，you can choose to forgive his action so that you can calm down.Then you can calmly explain to your boss who actually did the work on that project，without seeming overly emotional or like you have any kind of agenda other than to set the record straight. Of course，if it's something trivial，you can just choose to forgive and let it go. It's important to note that this also (and especially) applies when it comes to forgiving yourself.Since thoughts of self-blame or self-hatred are the worst thoughts we can have，staying stuck in that vibration will cause more harm than any other emotion.Move into anger，stabilize there，and then move up the emotional scale until you gradually but consistently feel better.You owe it to yourself. [语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了学会原谅的重要性。 8．What is forgiveness mainly about according to the author? A．Controlling our own feelings. B．Making ourselves feel better. C．Lessening the harm of an offence. D．Repairing relationships with others. 解析　细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Forgiveness is about one thing and one thing only：it's about how you feel.”可知，宽恕关乎你自己的感受，学会宽恕是为了让自己感觉更好。故选B。 答案　B 9．How should we react if we're harmed by others? A．Turn the other cheek. B．Calm down and let it go. C．Ask for help from others. D．Fight back in a proper way. 解析　推理判断题。根据第三段可知，宽恕不是自我牺牲或者忍气吞声，不应该牺牲自身利益，由此可推测出，当我们受到别人的伤害时，要用适当的方式反击。故选D。 答案　D 10．Which of the following can replace the underlined word “trivial” in paragraph 5? A．Unimportant. B．Unique. C．Unusual. D．Uninteresting. 解析　词句猜测题。根据画线词后面的“you can just choose to forgive and let it go”可推出，你可以选择原谅并放手的事情应该是一些不重要的小事，trivial意为“微不足道的”，与unimportant意思最接近。故选A。 答案　A 11．What's the text mainly about? A．The way to get along well with others. B．The importance of learning to forgive. C．The reason to forgive ourselves. D．The way to fight back against dishonest colleagues. 解析　主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“Learning to forgive those who have ‘wronged us’ may not always be easy，but it's definitely worth it.Here's why.”可知，本文主要介绍了学会原谅的重要性。故选B。 答案　B D Beethoven is undoubtedly one of the greatest musicians.He completed 722 musical works.Unfortunately，the master died while still working on his Tenth Symphony(交响曲).Now，a team of musicians and scientists have used artificial intelligence (AI) to complete the artist's final composition. Dr.Matthias first came up with the idea to complete the composition in 2019.He thought it was an appropriate way to celebrate Beethoven's 250th birthday in December 2020.He began by enlisting an international team of music experts to help him with the giant task.They included the music composer Walter and Dr.Ahmed，the creator of an innovative AI technology for the art market. Ahmed and his colleagues started the process by familiarizing the AI software initially with a broad range of classical music，and then，narrowed it down to just Beethoven's work.Meanwhile，Walter and his group tried to interpret the rough drafts and the handful of notes that detailed Beethoven's plans for the Tenth Symphony. The team then began the slow and careful task of feeding the AI software musical notes from the unfinished composition.To stay true to Beethoven's original composition，Ahmed's team sent Walter hundreds of AI-generated musical note variations every evening.Walter would listen to them and then select the one that he thought was closest to what the artist would have written.The AI team would add the music and rerun the software to generate the next suggestions.And piece by piece，the team was able to complete Beethoven's Tenth Symphony! The composition was first released on October 9，2021.Not surprisingly，it caused some controversy(争议).Critics believe technology should not be used to replicate the human creative process.Ahmed and his team agree with their opinions and say their AI software is not out to replace humans—it is just a tool to help artists to express themselves in new ways. [语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一个由音乐家和科学家组成的团队使用人工智能(AI)完成了贝多芬的第十交响曲。 12．What is the purpose of the writer in writing Paragraph 1? A．To voice his greatest respect for Beethoven. B．To compare traditional music and AI music. C．To present the team's hard work. D．To introduce an innovative method to create music. 解析　推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Now，a team of musicians and scientists have used artificial intelligence (AI) to complete the artist's final composition.”可知，现在一个由音乐家和科学家组成的团队使用人工智能(AI)完成了这位艺术家的最终作品。由此可推断出，第一段的主要目的是介绍一种创新的音乐创作方法，故选D。 答案　D 13．Which can be used to best describe the team's work? A．Inspiring. B．Steady. C．Challenging. D．Boring. 解析　推理判断题。根据第三、四段内容，尤其根据第四段中的“The team then began the slow and careful task”及“And piece by piece，the team was able to complete Beethoven's Tenth Symphony！(一首一首地，这个团队完成了贝多芬的第十交响曲。)”可推断出，这个团队的工作是充满挑战性的(challenging)，故选C。inspiring鼓舞人心的；steady平稳的；boring乏味的。 答案　C 14．What does the underlined word “replicate” in the last paragraph mean? A．Question. B．Copy. C．Direct. D．Speed. 解析　词义猜测题。根据下文“AI software is not out to replace humans—it is just a tool to help artists to express themselves in new ways”可知，人工智能软件并不是要取代人类——它只是一个帮助艺术家以新的方式表达自己的工具。由此可推断出，批评者认为，技术不应该被用来复制人类的创造过程。故画线词“replicate”意为“复制”，故选B。 答案　B 15．Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A．Beethoven's Tenth Symphony Is Eventually Staged B．AI Helps Complete Beethoven's Unfinished Symphony C．A Team of Experts Completed an Impossible Mission D．A Controversial Way Successfully Interprets Beethoven's Music 解析　标题归纳题。通读文章并根据第一段中的“Now，a team of musicians and scientists have used artificial intelligence (AI) to complete the artist's final composition.”可知，本文介绍了一个由音乐家和科学家组成的团队使用人工智能(AI)完成了贝多芬未完成的作品，故B项“人工智能帮助完成贝多芬未完成的交响乐”为最佳标题。 答案　B 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。 As a professional artist，people ask me all the time where I get inspiration. 16 Favorite artists? Where do you find reference (参考) photos? Whether you're painting flowers，abstracts or landscapes，staying inspired is the key to always creating new work and discovering your own unique style. 17 I'll bring my phone along，and take my own reference photos and videos of flowers I see，interesting color palettes (主要色彩) in the sky or landscapes. 18 While you're outside，you become more of a discoverer when it comes to colors and subject matter. If there's a particular subject I know I need to paint or some color inspiration I can't find in my local area，and I'll search the Internet. 19 NO.I'm talking about finding travel photos，nature photos，etc.and creating mood boards that evoke (唤起) a certain theme you're going for.This step is huge for trend forecasting and creating work that's truly inspired and not a recreation.

John studied in the local primary school.Life was not easy for John and his mum after his father died.Knowing what hard work his mother did to make ends meet，John really didn't want his mother to worry.His mother knew the significance of education in life but she was against his dream of becoming an artist.“The profession of artist can't aid a person in meeting his daily expenses，” she would say.But as each day passed，John's dream became more passionate. Due to the living circumstances，even buying some new colours would be a luxury.John only used the worn drawing file and limited colours for his daily practice.Though lacking fine painting materials，he never gave up drawing.He spent a significant amount of time staying in the forest，secretly perfecting his craft.With continuous hard work and a distinct gift for art，he drew beautifully.One day John read about a competition being held in the town，whose deadline was only two days away.He got the perfect opportunity to fulfill his desire but he was in a dilemma (两难境地) as for the competition he needed special paints and some brushes.He didn't have the courage to ask his mother for money as he knew her prejudice against art. That evening his mum returned from work and handed him a few paper notes，saying，“This is for your lunch at school next month.” The money was enough for his desired materials! John's face lit up. 注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2．请按如下格式作答。 Early the next morning，John secretly left home with the money. A week later，a phone call came to John's home.

A week later，a phone call came to John's home.Hearing what the man said，his mother felt puzzled，not knowing how his son had done it，because she knew it needed money.As soon as John arrived home，his mother told him the news，and waited for his explanation.After knowing the truth，her eyes welled up with tears.Hugging her son tightly，she apologized to him.But he was happy，not only because he had got the perfect opportunity to fulfill his desire，but also he was awarded a lot of money because of his work. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
