The Admonitions Scroll is considered a milestone in Chinese painting history.
Traditionally attributed to Gu Kaizhi (about AD 345—406), it probably dates to between AD 400 and 700.
This masterpiece shows a poetic text composed by an official Zhang Hua (about AD 232—300) aimed at correcting the behavior of an empress. The Scroll carries inscriptions (题字) by later collectors including the Qianlong emperor (1736—1795). The British Museum purchased the Scroll from Captain Clarence Johnson (1870—1937) who was in Beijing in 1900 during the Boxer Rebellion (1899—1901). Originally a hand scroll, the painting and later inscriptions were separated and mounted onto panels in 1914.
Visiting information
The Admonitions Scroll will be on display from Monday, 14 July — Monday, 25 August, 2025. Due to conservation precautions, it can only be displayed for six weeks each year.
Non-museum guided tours and tour groups, regardless of size, will not be permitted.
Hand-held photography and video recording (without flash) is allowed in the gallery for private purposes only.
If you want to see the Admonitions Scroll throughout the year, a digital screen of the scroll is available in Room 33; China and South Asia on the First Floor.
21.Who wrote the poetic text on the Admonitions Scroll?

21.细节理解题。根据第三段中“This masterpiece shows a poetic text composed by an official Zhang Hua (about AD 232—300) aimed at correcting the behavior of an empress.”可知,这篇画作上的诗文《女史箴图》出自张华之手。B项顾恺之是传统上被认为的作者,但诗赋文本的作者是张华;C项乾隆皇帝是后来的收藏题字者;D项克拉伦斯·约翰逊是出售此画的人。由此可知,故选A项。
22.细节理解题。根据Visiting information部分中“Due to conservation precautions, it can only be displayed for six weeks each year.”可知,出于文物保护的需要,这幅画每年的展出时间被严格限制在六周以内。B项“减少游客流量”、C项“避免拍照”、D项“展示数字副本”均与原文不符。由此可知,故选A项。
23.推理判断题。文章介绍了《女史箴图》的历史背景,并详细说明了展出时间、参观规定以及数字版本的观看位置,这些信息符合博物馆游客指南或网站的特征。A项“古代诗集”、C项“女性道德指南”、D项“顾恺之传记”均与文章内容不符。由此可知,故选B项。

As a Chinese ink painting artist, I deeply respect tradition while actively exploring new possibilities. My “ink sculpture” concept goes beyond the universal — it aims to transform ink art into a multidimensional language that bridges cultures.
My artistic journey began with a double foundation. Though formally trained in Chinese ink painting, my early studies in Western sketching and oil painting provided a strong technical grounding. This blend of Eastern and Western influences shaped my unique style, balancing realism and abstraction, and reinforced my belief that “ink painting is not just a medium but a cultural essence” — a philosophy that inspired my “ink sculpture” concept.
In my early work, I focused on traditional themes like the “Four Gentlemen” (plum blossom, orchid, bamboo, and chrysanthemum), which symbolize virtues such as resilience, grace, humility, and integrity in the Chinese literati’s culture. These subjects became a bridge between historical tradition and contemporary expression, enabling me to reinterpret classical subjects with a modern sensibility.
The “ink sculpture” concept merges Eastern and Western techniques. It combines the “bone method” of Chinese brushwork with Western approaches to the form, light, and shadow. This combination represents a careful balance, preserving cultural identity while engaging in global artistic dialog. By redefining ink’s materiality and spatial presence, I expand its expressive potential beyond the flat surface of paper.
My practice reimagines ink painting in a modern context, honoring its legacy while pushing boundaries. For example, Longma Jingshen is drawn from Xu Beihong’s Galloping Horse, yet the horse’s mane — inspired by Bada Shanren’s minimalist strokes — is recreated using 3D printed fragments to achieve a “flying white” effect, a calligraphic technique suggesting motion.
The value of these works perhaps needs to be assessed from a broader perspective of art history. It lies in the creative transformation of “breaking apart within tradition and rebirth, through fracturing,” which provides an important model for the contemporary narrative of Eastern aesthetics.
24.What helped the author lay the groundwork for his skill?
A.Sculpture and calligraphy.
B.Digital media and performance art.
C.Western sketching and oil painting.
D.Traditional ink wash and abstract theory.
25.Why did the author focus on the “Four Gentlemen”?
A.To combine ancient culture and modern reinterpretation.
B.To attract more Western audiences to Chinese art.
C.To demonstrate the diversity of ink painting subjects.
D.To explain traditional techniques of ink painting.
26.What can we infer about the author’s “ink sculpture” concept according to paragraphs 4 and 5?
A.It prioritizes technical ease over artistic value.
B.It abandons traditional ink techniques completely.
C.It gains instant recognition from traditionalists.
D.It innovates while respecting ink traditions.
27.What can be the best title for the text?
A.East-West Magic: The Transformation of Art
B.Ink Meets Dimensions: The Rebirth of Tradition
C.Traditional Limits: The Fixed Way of Painting
D.Broken Elegance: The 3D Language of Ink
【答案】24.C 25.A 26.D 27.B
【解析】语篇解读:这是一篇夹叙夹议的文章,作者以中国水墨画艺术家的身份,介绍了自己“水墨雕塑”的理念——在尊重传统的基础上融合中西技法,将水墨艺术拓展为多维的跨文化语言。
24.细节理解题。根据第二段“Though formally trained in Chinese ink painting, my early studies in Western sketching and oil painting provided a strong technical grounding”,可知,作者早期学习的西方素描和油画为他的技能奠定了基础。A项“雕塑与书法”、B项“数字媒体与行为艺术”、D项“传统水墨与抽象理论”均与原文不符。由此可知,故选C项。
25.细节理解题。根据第三段“These subjects became a bridge between historical tradition and contemporary expression, enabling me to reinterpret classical subjects with a modern sensibility”,可知,作者聚焦“四君子”是为了在历史传统与当代表达之间架起桥梁,即结合古老文化与现代重新诠释。B项“吸引更多西方观众”、C项“展示水墨画题材的多样性”、D项“解释传统水墨技法”均不是主要原因。由此可知,故选A项。
26.推理判断题。根据第四段“This combination represents a careful balance, preserving cultural identity while engaging in global artistic dialog”以及第五段《龙马精神》的例子(取材于徐悲鸿的《奔马图》,用3D打印重现八大山人的笔法效果)可知,“水墨雕塑”在尊重传统笔墨精神的同时进行技术创新。A项“优先考虑技术简便而非艺术价值”、B项“完全放弃传统水墨技法”、C项“立即获得传统主义者的认可”均与原文不符。由此可知,故选D项。
27.主旨大意题。通读全文,结合文章第一段My “ink sculpture” concept goes beyond the universal — it aims to transform ink art into a multidimensional language that bridges cultures以及第六段 “It lies in the creative transformation of ‘breaking apart within tradition and rebirth, through fracturing’” 可知,文章核心是作者通过“水墨雕塑”概念,打破传统水墨的平面限制,赋予其多维空间表达,实现传统在现代语境下的重生。B项“当水墨遇见维度:传统的重生”准确概括主旨。A项“东西方魔法:艺术的转变”过于宽泛;C项“传统的局限:固定的绘画方式”与作者创新态度相反;D项“破碎的优雅:水墨的3D语言”只强调了技术手段,未突出“传统重生”的核心。由此可知,故选B项。
C
A team of Cambridge psychologists conducted an experiment to compare the cognitive(认知的) effects of merely seeing art with actively judging how beautiful it is.
In the study,187 people were invited to visit Kettle’s Yard gallery during an exhibition of handmade clay objects.Participants were randomly divided into two groups:the “beauty” group was asked to actively consider and then rate the beauty of each object they viewed,while the control group just matched a line drawing of the object with the artwork itself.All participants were then tested on how they process information,and whether it’s in a more practical or abstract way.
Across all participants,those in the beauty group scored almost 14% higher on average than the control group in abstract thinking.While they were told the study was about cognitive processes,participants were asked about interests,with around half saying they had an artistic hobby.Among those,the effect was greater:those with an artistic hobby in the beauty group scored over 25% higher on average for abstract thinking than those with an artistic hobby in the control group.
Emotional states of participants were also measured by asking about their feelings while completing the gallery task.Across all participants,those in the beauty group reported an average of 23% higher levels of “transformative and self-transcendent feelings”—such as feeling moved,enlightened and inspired—than the control group.Importantly,however,the beauty group did not report feeling any happier than the control group,suggesting that it was the engagement with beauty that influenced abstract thinking,rather than any overall positivity from the experience.
“We usually think in very concrete terms when doing something on a screen,” said Simone Schnall,senior author of the study.“It’s becoming much rarer to zone out and just let the mind wander,but that’s when we think in ways that broaden our minds.Admiring the beauty of art may be the ideal way to initiate the abstract cognitive processes.”
28.What was the beauty group asked to do with the clay objects?
A.Draw their outlines.
B.Give each piece a rating.
C.Compare their prices.
D.Make a copy of each piece.
29.Which participants got the highest score on average in the test?
A.Beauty group,with an artistic hobby.
B.Beauty group,without an artistic hobby.
C.Control group,with an artistic hobby.
D.Control group,without an artistic hobby.
30.Why were the participants’ emotional states measured?
A.To discover their attitudes towards art.
B.To identify their specific thinking patterns.
C.To examine the difficulty of the tasks.
D.To determine factors behind the test results.
31.What is the major finding of the study regarding the appreciation of art?
A.It enhances emotional ties.
B.It needs critical thinking skills.
C.It creates positive feelings.
D.It encourages abstract thinking.

【解析】语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项剑桥大学的研究,发现深度欣赏艺术之美能提升抽象思维能力。
28.细节理解题。根据第二段中的“the ‘beauty’ group was asked to actively consider and then rate the beauty of each object they viewed”可知,审美组的任务是主动思考并为每件作品的美感打分,故选 B。
29.细节理解题。根据第三段首句“Across all participants,those in the beauty group scored almost 14% higher on average than the control group in abstract thinking.”以及最后一句“Among those,the effect was greater:those with an artistic hobby in the beauty group scored over 25% higher on average for abstract thinking than those with an artistic hobby in the control group.”可知,得分最高的是审美组有艺术爱好的参与者,故选 A。
30.推理判断题。根据第四段内容,尤其“it was the engagement with beauty that influenced abstract thinking,rather than any overall positivity from the experience”可知,研究发现,审美组的抽象思维得分虽然更高,但他们的快乐程度并不比对照组高。这说明影响抽象思维的是“审美投入”而非“积极情绪”。即研究者评估参与者的情绪状态,目的在于探究“抽象思维提升”背后的真正因素。故选D。
31.细节理解题。根据第三段结论,审美组在抽象思维测试中的得分比对照组高出近14%,其中有艺术爱好的审美组得分更是高出25%以上。最后一段也指出:“欣赏艺术之美或许是激发抽象认知过程的理想方式。”这说明欣赏美能够促进抽象思维。故选D。
D
Art is not always made of marble or canvas. On the shores of India, artist SudarsanPattnaik uses a unique medium: sand — fragile, shifting and temporary. His canvas is the beach, and his creations, though they eventually disappear, leave behind something far more lasting: deep thought.
Without teachers or structured learning, Pattnaik taught himself by observing and experimenting, turning the beach into his studio. Over time, his unique craft has traveled far beyond his hometown, earning him an international reputation and numerous global awards.
For Pattnaik, art has never been just about aesthetics (美学); it is about raising awareness. He sees his sand sculptures as powerful tools to respond to urgent global issues. Over the years, his art has centered around critical themes, transforming sand into impactful public service messages. On World Environment Day, he created striking visuals of endangered marine life trapped in plastic, urging people to reconsider their daily consumption. In another powerful work, he sculpted a massive Earth cradled in human hands, symbolizing both responsibility and fragility. His sculptures often carry clear messages like “Save Earth”, turning a shoreline into a site of reflection. Beyond environmental campaigns, Pattnaik’s work also pushes creative boundaries. He has created tributes to global leaders and cultural icons to mark significant international events. Each piece, regardless of its theme, strengthens the connection between art and society.
Perhaps the most unique aspect of his work is its temporary nature. The sand sculptures can be scattered by the wind or washed away by the sea. However, Pattnaik builds them anyway, knowing that while the physical form may disappear, the message will remain. In a fast-moving world, his art asks us to pause and think. The true endurance of his art lies not in the sand itself, but in the memory and action it inspires.
32.What helped Pattnaik acquire his artistic skills?
A.Formal education and structured courses.
B.Extensive travel and international exchanges.
C.Independent learning and dedicated practice.
D.Professional guidance and hands-on experience.
33.What is the main role of his works according to Pattnaik?
A.A tool to promote an exceptional art form.
B.A carrier to provide pure aesthetic pleasure.
C.A means to break boundaries between cultures.
D.A way to speak for the environment and society.
34.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A.Artists should employ durable materials.
B.The sculptures can be preserved forever.
C.Art’s value goes beyond its physical form.
D.Art should cater to the fast-moving world.
35.Which words can best describe Pattnaik?
A.Responsible and innovative.
B.Considerate and humble.
C.Talented and courageous.
D.Influential and organized.
【答案】32.C 33.D 34.C 35.A
【解析】语篇解读:这是一篇说明文。介绍了印度沙雕艺术家Sudarsan Pattnaik自学成才,利用易逝的沙子创作环保主题作品,以唤起公众对全球问题的关注,其艺术价值超越了物理形态的短暂性。
32.细节理解题。根据第二段 “Without teachers or structured learning, Pattnaik taught himself by observing and experimenting, turning the beach into his studio.” 可知,帕特奈克没有接受过正规教育,而是通过观察和实验自学成才,将海滩变成了自己的工作室。A项“正规教育和结构化课程”与原文 “Without teachers or structured learning” 相悖;B项“广泛的旅行和国际交流”及D项“专业指导”在文中均无对应依据。由此可知,故选C项。
33.细节理解题。根据第三段 “For Pattnaik, art has never been just about aesthetics (美学); it is about raising awareness. He sees his sand sculptures as powerful tools to respond to urgent global issues.” 以及 “strengthening the connection between art and society” 可知,帕特奈克认为沙雕艺术不仅仅是为了美学,更是为了唤起人们对紧迫全球议题的意识,是表达环境和社会问题的一种方式。A项“推广一种特殊的艺术形式”、B项“提供纯粹的审美愉悦”及C项“打破文化界限”均未能准确概括其艺术的核心社会功能。由此可知,故选D项。
34.推理判断题。根据最后一段 “However, Pattnaik builds them anyway, knowing that while the physical form may disappear, the message will remain... The true endurance of his art lies not in the sand itself, but in the memory and action it inspires.” 可知,尽管沙雕的物理形态会消失,但它所传递的信息和激发的行动却能长存。这充分说明艺术的价值超越了其物质实体本身。A项“艺术家应使用耐用的材料”与帕特奈克坚持创作易逝沙雕的行为相悖;B项“雕塑能永远保存”与原文 “disappear” 矛盾;D项“艺术应迎合快节奏的世界”与原文 “asks us to pause and think” 相悖。由此可知,故选C项。
35.推理判断题。通读全文,根据第一段中“On the shores of India, artist SudarsanPattnaik uses a unique medium: sand — fragile, shifting and temporary.” 可知,帕特奈克利用沙雕艺术唤起人们对环境保护等全球议题的关注,体现了他强烈的社会责任感(Responsible);以及第三段中“On World Environment Day, he created striking visuals of endangered marine life trapped in plastic, urging people to reconsider their daily consumption. In another powerful work, he sculpted a massive Earth cradled in human hands, symbolizing both responsibility and fragility.” 可知,他打破了传统艺术材料的局限,将易逝的沙子作为媒介,并不断拓展创作边界,体现了他的创新精神(innovative)。因此,帕特奈克是一个责任心强且富有创新精神的人。B项“体贴谦逊的”、C项“才华横溢且勇敢的”及D项“有影响力且有组织能力的”均不如A项“负责任且富有创新精神”能全面且准确地概括其人物特质。由此可知,故选A项。
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。
Have you ever tried reading music? If so,you probably noticed a lot of new symbols and words.Maybe you saw the word presto at the beginning.Perhaps you read piano and crescendo throughout the song. 36 Or maybe you didn’t—if you knew how to read Italian!
Italian is sometimes called the language that sings. 37 However,the link between Italian and music is deeper than that.Today,musical vocabulary is full of Italian words.
However,it wasn’t always so.Thousands of years ago,people didn’t write music.Instead,they passed songs down orally and taught each other to play them on instruments. 38 Later,people in Spain and Italy began putting music to paper for use in choirs.
Around 1000 CE,an Italian man named Guido d’Arezzo came up with the four-lined staff(四线谱),which eventually led to the development of the five-lined staff still used in modern music today.Over the next few centuries,many of the people writing music were Italian.Of course,people in other parts of the world were writing music,too.In an effort to standardize written music,many of them used Italian terms. 39 For example,Beethoven sometimes used German words instead of Italian.Claude Debussy used French in “Clair de Lune”.
40 You might already be familiar with some terms! One example is tempo—the speed of a piece of music.Markings in written music tell the player when the music should be adagio(slow),or allegro(fast).The dynamics,or volume,of a piece of music might begin with piano(soft),then crescendo(get louder) and finally fortissimo(very loud).
A.Many think it sounds musical.
B.Others wrote music in their own languages.
C.Still,Italian is the primary language used in music.
D.You probably needed to ask your teacher what these words meant.
E.Learning to read music is an important part of practicing those skills.
F.People who write music even have ways to communicate techniques.
G.Ancient people in Babylonia,Greece,and Rome were some of the earliest to write music.
【答案】36.D 37.A 38.G 39.B 40.C
【解析】语篇解读:本文是说明文。文章简要介绍了乐谱上的音乐术语及其相关历史。
36.根据空前后文可知,本空应该与上文所提到的陌生词汇的含义有关,故D项“你或许需要去问你的老师这些词是什么意思”符合语境。下文的“Or maybe you didn’t”指D项中的“needed to ask your teacher what these words meant”。故选D。
37.根据空前后文可知,本空应该与意大利语和音乐之间浅层的关系有关,故A项“许多人认为意大利语听起来像音乐”符合语境。A项中的it 指代上文中的Italian,且musical与下文中的music是同根词复现。故选A。
38.根据空前后文可知,本空应该与什么人开始写乐谱有关,且与下文内容之间是顺承关系,故G项“古巴比伦尼亚、古希腊和古罗马的人是最早写乐谱的人”符合语境。G项中的the earliest 呼应下文中的Later,且write music呼应下文中的putting music to paper。故选G。
39.根据空前后文可知,除了意大利语,也有人用其他语言写乐谱,故B项“其他人用自己的语言写音乐”符合语境,与下文的例子相呼应。故选B。
40.根据下文中的“You might already be familiar with some terms!”和列举的一些意大利语的音乐术语可知,本段具体介绍一些意大利语的音乐术语的含义,且本空应为本段主旨句,故C项符合语境,并呼应首段内容。故选C。

I will never forget my first concert on a warm spring evening. The moment my friends and I stepped into the stadium, I felt excitement in the 41 . Thousands of people were waiting 42 , many wearing T-shirts with the singer’s name and holding shining light sticks. Everyone was smiling, chatting and ready for something 43 .
When the lights 44 , the crowd roared. A single spotlight lit up the 45 , and then — boom — the music started. The sound was so 46 that it seemed to pass right through me. Every 47 was remarkably clear, and the electric guitar made my heart pound. Then the singer’s voice came through, dynamic and transporting, far better than I could ever have 48 .
What struck me most profoundly, though, was the 49 between that vast crowd of strangers. Apart from my friends, I didn’t know the people standing on either side of me, but we sang the same lyrics, moved to the same beat, and 50 our arms as one. At that moment, it didn’t matter who we were or where we came from; we were all part of one big family.
Then the stage 51 and so did we. As a slow song began, I looked around and saw thousands of 52 lights, the audience swaying together and singing softly. It felt simply magical. I thought about how, in our busy lives, we 53 stop to share moments like these and how much we should.
On the journey home, my voice was hoarse (嘶哑的) from 54 and my legs tired from dancing, yet my heart was full and content. That night gave me more than just music; it 55 me a cherished memory that would stay with me forever.

The elephant-foot drum dance is one of the most popular and representative traditional dances of the Dai people. In 2008, it (recognize) as a national intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) item.
(traditional), the elephant-foot drum dance is performed by men. As (it) dance steps came from traditional Dai martial arts, anyone wishing to learn this art must first study martial arts. Otherwise, they may lack physical (strong) and flexibility to perform the dance. The dance is physically (challenge) for beginners, as it requires them (carry) a drum, maintain good balance, and keep up with the rhythm. During a performance, dancers carry the drum on their left shoulder, with the drumhead facing forward the end pointing backward. The elephant-foot drum, is named for a resemblance (相像) to an elephant’s foot, is a well-known musical instrument of the Dai people.
Dancers’ right hands strike the drum with fists, palms, and fingertips, while the left hands support the action. Because the drum is long, most dance (movement) are performed with the dancers’ legs, such as squatting (蹲), lifting one leg, and kicking. Whether the dancers strictly follow Dai traditions or create new forms of cultural expression, generations of Dai elephant-foot drum dancers continue to pass on this traditional art their own ways.

第二节 读后续写(25分)
67.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。
It all started with a simple question, “Can I paint your portrait (肖像)?”
In the summer of 2024, Brian Peterson and his wife, Vanessa, had just moved into a small apartment in Santa Ana, California. The neighborhood was unfamiliar, the streets quiet and still. But one sound stood out — every morning and evening, a man’s shouting came from the corner. Dirty clothes, wild hair, long fingernails — the man looked like he hadn’t showered in a year. Brian passed him on the way to work every day. But they never spoke.
One quiet afternoon, Brian sat on his couch, reading Love Does, a book filled with stories about love expressed through action. The sun poured through the window. Then — another shout from outside. Annoyed at first, Brian looked up. But something from the book moved him. Maybe love wasn’t just a feeling. Maybe it was a decision.
Without overthinking, he stood up, walked outside, and approached the man.
“Hi,” he said gently. “I’m Brian.”
The man blinked, surprised. “Matt,” he replied after a pause.
In that first conversation, Peterson learned that Matt Faris had come to California from Kentucky with a dream — he wanted to become a musician. But things fell apart. No job, no money, no home. For more than ten years, he had lived on the streets.
Brian listened. And as he looked at Matt, something unexpected happened. Under the dirt and roughness, he saw depth. He saw a story worth telling.
“It sounds crazy,” Brian said, “but I saw beauty.” And even though Brian, a graduate of the Cleveland Institute of Art, hadn’t picked up a paintbrush in about eight years, he found himself asking, “Would you let me paint your portrait?”
Matt looked at him for a long moment. Then he smiled and said, “Sure.”
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。

【答案】When Brian shared the finished painting online, something unexpected happened. Within hours, likes and comments poured in. People were drawn not only to the painting, but to the story behind it — a man so often ignored, now seen in full color. Strangers wrote to say they were moved to tears. A local gallery offered to buy the painting, and the money from the sale was used to help Matt. He got a haircut, new clothes, and even a small room to sleep in. For the first time in years, Matt felt human again. “You didn’t just paint me,” he told Brian gratefully. “You reminded me I still matter.”
Inspired, Brain decided to help more people. He couldn’t stop thinking about the others — men and women with untold stories, passed by every day. With Vanessa’s help, he launched Humans of the Streets, a project that used portrait art to restore dignity and hope. Brian would sit, talk, and listen before lifting a brush. Each portrait came with a name, a face, and a second chance. Donations from the paintings went directly to support the people he painted — food, shelter, even job training. What began as one painting on a quiet afternoon had grown into something far bigger: a movement of love, one face at a time.

第二部分 阅读(共两节,满分50分)
第一节 (共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
The Admonitions Scroll is considered a milestone in Chinese painting history.
Traditionally attributed to Gu Kaizhi (about AD 345—406), it probably dates to between AD 400 and 700.
This masterpiece shows a poetic text composed by an official Zhang Hua (about AD 232—300) aimed at correcting the behavior of an empress. The Scroll carries inscriptions (题字) by later collectors including the Qianlong emperor (1736—1795). The British Museum purchased the Scroll from Captain Clarence Johnson (1870—1937) who was in Beijing in 1900 during the Boxer Rebellion (1899—1901). Originally a hand scroll, the painting and later inscriptions were separated and mounted onto panels in 1914.
Visiting information

As a Chinese ink painting artist, I deeply respect tradition while actively exploring new possibilities. My “ink sculpture” concept goes beyond the universal — it aims to transform ink art into a multidimensional language that bridges cultures.
My artistic journey began with a double foundation. Though formally trained in Chinese ink painting, my early studies in Western sketching and oil painting provided a strong technical grounding. This blend of Eastern and Western influences shaped my unique style, balancing realism and abstraction, and reinforced my belief that “ink painting is not just a medium but a cultural essence” — a philosophy that inspired my “ink sculpture” concept.
In my early work, I focused on traditional themes like the “Four Gentlemen” (plum blossom, orchid, bamboo, and chrysanthemum), which symbolize virtues such as resilience, grace, humility, and integrity in the Chinese literati’s culture. These subjects became a bridge between historical tradition and contemporary expression, enabling me to reinterpret classical subjects with a modern sensibility.
The “ink sculpture” concept merges Eastern and Western techniques. It combines the “bone method” of Chinese brushwork with Western approaches to the form, light, and shadow. This combination represents a careful balance, preserving cultural identity while engaging in global artistic dialog. By redefining ink’s materiality and spatial presence, I expand its expressive potential beyond the flat surface of paper.
My practice reimagines ink painting in a modern context, honoring its legacy while pushing boundaries. For example, Longma Jingshen is drawn from Xu Beihong’s Galloping Horse, yet the horse’s mane — inspired by Bada Shanren’s minimalist strokes — is recreated using 3D printed fragments to achieve a “flying white” effect, a calligraphic technique suggesting motion.
The value of these works perhaps needs to be assessed from a broader perspective of art history. It lies in the creative transformation of “breaking apart within tradition and rebirth, through fracturing,” which provides an important model for the contemporary narrative of Eastern aesthetics.
24.What helped the author lay the groundwork for his skill?
A.Sculpture and calligraphy.
B.Digital media and performance art.
C.Western sketching and oil painting.
D.Traditional ink wash and abstract theory.
25.Why did the author focus on the “Four Gentlemen”?
A.To combine ancient culture and modern reinterpretation.
B.To attract more Western audiences to Chinese art.
C.To demonstrate the diversity of ink painting subjects.
D.To explain traditional techniques of ink painting.
26.What can we infer about the author’s “ink sculpture” concept according to paragraphs 4 and 5?
A.It prioritizes technical ease over artistic value.
B.It abandons traditional ink techniques completely.
C.It gains instant recognition from traditionalists.
D.It innovates while respecting ink traditions.
27.What can be the best title for the text?
A.East-West Magic: The Transformation of Art

A team of Cambridge psychologists conducted an experiment to compare the cognitive(认知的) effects of merely seeing art with actively judging how beautiful it is.
In the study,187 people were invited to visit Kettle’s Yard gallery during an exhibition of handmade clay objects.Participants were randomly divided into two groups:the “beauty” group was asked to actively consider and then rate the beauty of each object they viewed,while the control group just matched a line drawing of the object with the artwork itself.All participants were then tested on how they process information,and whether it’s in a more practical or abstract way.
Across all participants,those in the beauty group scored almost 14% higher on average than the control group in abstract thinking.While they were told the study was about cognitive processes,participants were asked about interests,with around half saying they had an artistic hobby.Among those,the effect was greater:those with an artistic hobby in the beauty group scored over 25% higher on average for abstract thinking than those with an artistic hobby in the control group.
Emotional states of participants were also measured by asking about their feelings while completing the gallery task.Across all participants,those in the beauty group reported an average of 23% higher levels of “transformative and self-transcendent feelings”—such as feeling moved,enlightened and inspired—than the control group.Importantly,however,the beauty group did not report feeling any happier than the control group,suggesting that it was the engagement with beauty that influenced abstract thinking,rather than any overall positivity from the experience.
“We usually think in very concrete terms when doing something on a screen,” said Simone Schnall,senior author of the study.“It’s becoming much rarer to zone out and just let the mind wander,but that’s when we think in ways that broaden our minds.Admiring the beauty of art may be the ideal way to initiate the abstract cognitive processes.”
28.What was the beauty group asked to do with the clay objects?
A.Draw their outlines.
B.Give each piece a rating.
C.Compare their prices.
D.Make a copy of each piece.
29.Which participants got the highest score on average in the test?
A.Beauty group,with an artistic hobby.
B.Beauty group,without an artistic hobby.
C.Control group,with an artistic hobby.
D.Control group,without an artistic hobby.
30.Why were the participants’ emotional states measured?
A.To discover their attitudes towards art.
B.To identify their specific thinking patterns.
C.To examine the difficulty of the tasks.
D.To determine factors behind the test results.
31.What is the major finding of the study regarding the appreciation of art?
A.It enhances emotional ties.
B.It needs critical thinking skills.
C.It creates positive feelings.
D.It encourages abstract thinking.

Art is not always made of marble or canvas. On the shores of India, artist SudarsanPattnaik uses a unique medium: sand — fragile, shifting and temporary. His canvas is the beach, and his creations, though they eventually disappear, leave behind something far more lasting: deep thought.
Without teachers or structured learning, Pattnaik taught himself by observing and experimenting, turning the beach into his studio. Over time, his unique craft has traveled far beyond his hometown, earning him an international reputation and numerous global awards.
For Pattnaik, art has never been just about aesthetics (美学); it is about raising awareness. He sees his sand sculptures as powerful tools to respond to urgent global issues. Over the years, his art has centered around critical themes, transforming sand into impactful public service messages. On World Environment Day, he created striking visuals of endangered marine life trapped in plastic, urging people to reconsider their daily consumption. In another powerful work, he sculpted a massive Earth cradled in human hands, symbolizing both responsibility and fragility. His sculptures often carry clear messages like “Save Earth”, turning a shoreline into a site of reflection. Beyond environmental campaigns, Pattnaik’s work also pushes creative boundaries. He has created tributes to global leaders and cultural icons to mark significant international events. Each piece, regardless of its theme, strengthens the connection between art and society.
Perhaps the most unique aspect of his work is its temporary nature. The sand sculptures can be scattered by the wind or washed away by the sea. However, Pattnaik builds them anyway, knowing that while the physical form may disappear, the message will remain. In a fast-moving world, his art asks us to pause and think. The true endurance of his art lies not in the sand itself, but in the memory and action it inspires.
32.What helped Pattnaik acquire his artistic skills?
A.Formal education and structured courses.
B.Extensive travel and international exchanges.
C.Independent learning and dedicated practice.
D.Professional guidance and hands-on experience.
33.What is the main role of his works according to Pattnaik?
A.A tool to promote an exceptional art form.
B.A carrier to provide pure aesthetic pleasure.
C.A means to break boundaries between cultures.
D.A way to speak for the environment and society.
34.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A.Artists should employ durable materials.
B.The sculptures can be preserved forever.
C.Art’s value goes beyond its physical form.
D.Art should cater to the fast-moving world.
35.Which words can best describe Pattnaik?
A.Responsible and innovative.
B.Considerate and humble.
C.Talented and courageous.
D.Influential and organized.

Have you ever tried reading music? If so,you probably noticed a lot of new symbols and words.Maybe you saw the word presto at the beginning.Perhaps you read piano and crescendo throughout the song. 36 Or maybe you didn’t—if you knew how to read Italian!
Italian is sometimes called the language that sings. 37 However,the link between Italian and music is deeper than that.Today,musical vocabulary is full of Italian words.
However,it wasn’t always so.Thousands of years ago,people didn’t write music.Instead,they passed songs down orally and taught each other to play them on instruments. 38 Later,people in Spain and Italy began putting music to paper for use in choirs.
Around 1000 CE,an Italian man named Guido d’Arezzo came up with the four-lined staff(四线谱),which eventually led to the development of the five-lined staff still used in modern music today.Over the next few centuries,many of the people writing music were Italian.Of course,people in other parts of the world were writing music,too.In an effort to standardize written music,many of them used Italian terms. 39 For example,Beethoven sometimes used German words instead of Italian.Claude Debussy used French in “Clair de Lune”.
40 You might already be familiar with some terms! One example is tempo—the speed of a piece of music.Markings in written music tell the player when the music should be adagio(slow),or allegro(fast).The dynamics,or volume,of a piece of music might begin with piano(soft),then crescendo(get louder) and finally fortissimo(very loud).
A.Many think it sounds musical.
B.Others wrote music in their own languages.
C.Still,Italian is the primary language used in music.
D.You probably needed to ask your teacher what these words meant.
E.Learning to read music is an important part of practicing those skills.
F.People who write music even have ways to communicate techniques.
G.Ancient people in Babylonia,Greece,and Rome were some of the earliest to write music.

I will never forget my first concert on a warm spring evening. The moment my friends and I stepped into the stadium, I felt excitement in the 41 . Thousands of people were waiting 42 , many wearing T-shirts with the singer’s name and holding shining light sticks. Everyone was smiling, chatting and ready for something 43 .
When the lights 44 , the crowd roared. A single spotlight lit up the 45 , and then — boom — the music started. The sound was so 46 that it seemed to pass right through me. Every 47 was remarkably clear, and the electric guitar made my heart pound. Then the singer’s voice came through, dynamic and transporting, far better than I could ever have 48 .
What struck me most profoundly, though, was the 49 between that vast crowd of strangers. Apart from my friends, I didn’t know the people standing on either side of me, but we sang the same lyrics, moved to the same beat, and 50 our arms as one. At that moment, it didn’t matter who we were or where we came from; we were all part of one big family.
Then the stage 51 and so did we. As a slow song began, I looked around and saw thousands of 52 lights, the audience swaying together and singing softly. It felt simply magical. I thought about how, in our busy lives, we 53 stop to share moments like these and how much we should.
On the journey home, my voice was hoarse (嘶哑的) from 54 and my legs tired from dancing, yet my heart was full and content. That night gave me more than just music; it 55 me a cherished memory that would stay with me forever.

The elephant-foot drum dance is one of the most popular and representative traditional dances of the Dai people. In 2008, it (recognize) as a national intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) item.
(traditional), the elephant-foot drum dance is performed by men. As (it) dance steps came from traditional Dai martial arts, anyone wishing to learn this art must first study martial arts. Otherwise, they may lack physical (strong) and flexibility to perform the dance. The dance is physically (challenge) for beginners, as it requires them (carry) a drum, maintain good balance, and keep up with the rhythm. During a performance, dancers carry the drum on their left shoulder, with the drumhead facing forward the end pointing backward. The elephant-foot drum, is named for a resemblance (相像) to an elephant’s foot, is a well-known musical instrument of the Dai people.
Dancers’ right hands strike the drum with fists, palms, and fingertips, while the left hands support the action. Because the drum is long, most dance (movement) are performed with the dancers’ legs, such as squatting (蹲), lifting one leg, and kicking. Whether the dancers strictly follow Dai traditions or create new forms of cultural expression, generations of Dai elephant-foot drum dancers continue to pass on this traditional art their own ways.

It all started with a simple question, “Can I paint your portrait (肖像)?”
In the summer of 2024, Brian Peterson and his wife, Vanessa, had just moved into a small apartment in Santa Ana, California. The neighborhood was unfamiliar, the streets quiet and still. But one sound stood out — every morning and evening, a man’s shouting came from the corner. Dirty clothes, wild hair, long fingernails — the man looked like he hadn’t showered in a year. Brian passed him on the way to work every day. But they never spoke.
One quiet afternoon, Brian sat on his couch, reading Love Does, a book filled with stories about love expressed through action. The sun poured through the window. Then — another shout from outside. Annoyed at first, Brian looked up. But something from the book moved him. Maybe love wasn’t just a feeling. Maybe it was a decision.
Without overthinking, he stood up, walked outside, and approached the man.
“Hi,” he said gently. “I’m Brian.”
The man blinked, surprised. “Matt,” he replied after a pause.
In that first conversation, Peterson learned that Matt Faris had come to California from Kentucky with a dream — he wanted to become a musician. But things fell apart. No job, no money, no home. For more than ten years, he had lived on the streets.
Brian listened. And as he looked at Matt, something unexpected happened. Under the dirt and roughness, he saw depth. He saw a story worth telling.
“It sounds crazy,” Brian said, “but I saw beauty.” And even though Brian, a graduate of the Cleveland Institute of Art, hadn’t picked up a paintbrush in about eight years, he found himself asking, “Would you let me paint your portrait?”
Matt looked at him for a long moment. Then he smiled and said, “Sure.”

The Admonitions Scroll is considered a milestone in Chinese painting history.
Traditionally attributed to Gu Kaizhi (about AD 345—406), it probably dates to between AD 400 and 700.
This masterpiece shows a poetic text composed by an official Zhang Hua (about AD 232—300) aimed at correcting the behavior of an empress. The Scroll carries inscriptions (题字) by later collectors including the Qianlong emperor (1736—1795). The British Museum purchased the Scroll from Captain Clarence Johnson (1870—1937) who was in Beijing in 1900 during the Boxer Rebellion (1899—1901). Originally a hand scroll, the painting and later inscriptions were separated and mounted onto panels in 1914.

Have you ever tried reading music? If so,you probably noticed a lot of new symbols and words.Maybe you saw the word presto at the beginning.Perhaps you read piano and crescendo throughout the song. 36 Or maybe you didn’t—if you knew how to read Italian!
Italian is sometimes called the language that sings. 37 However,the link between Italian and music is deeper than that.Today,musical vocabulary is full of Italian words.
However,it wasn’t always so.Thousands of years ago,people didn’t write music.Instead,they passed songs down orally and taught each other to play them on instruments. 38 Later,people in Spain and Italy began putting music to paper for use in choirs.
Around 1000 CE,an Italian man named Guido d’Arezzo came up with the four-lined staff(四线谱),which eventually led to the development of the five-lined staff still used in modern music today.Over the next few centuries,many of the people writing music were Italian.Of course,people in other parts of the world were writing music,too.In an effort to standardize written music,many of them used Italian terms. 39 For example,Beethoven sometimes used German words instead of Italian.Claude Debussy used French in “Clair de Lune”.
40 You might already be familiar with some terms! One example is tempo—the speed of a piece of music.Markings in written music tell the player when the music should be adagio(slow),or allegro(fast).The dynamics,or volume,of a piece of music might begin with piano(soft),then crescendo(get louder) and finally fortissimo(very loud).
A.Many think it sounds musical.
B.Others wrote music in their own languages.
C.Still,Italian is the primary language used in music.
D.You probably needed to ask your teacher what these words meant.
E.Learning to read music is an important part of practicing those skills.
F.People who write music even have ways to communicate techniques.
G.Ancient people in Babylonia,Greece,and Rome were some of the earliest to write music.

I will never forget my first concert on a warm spring evening. The moment my friends and I stepped into the stadium, I felt excitement in the 41 . Thousands of people were waiting 42 , many wearing T-shirts with the singer’s name and holding shining light sticks. Everyone was smiling, chatting and ready for something 43 .
When the lights 44 , the crowd roared. A single spotlight lit up the 45 , and then — boom — the music started. The sound was so 46 that it seemed to pass right through me. Every 47 was remarkably clear, and the electric guitar made my heart pound. Then the singer’s voice came through, dynamic and transporting, far better than I could ever have 48 .
What struck me most profoundly, though, was the 49 between that vast crowd of strangers. Apart from my friends, I didn’t know the people standing on either side of me, but we sang the same lyrics, moved to the same beat, and 50 our arms as one. At that moment, it didn’t matter who we were or where we came from; we were all part of one big family.
Then the stage 51 and so did we. As a slow song began, I looked around and saw thousands of 52 lights, the audience swaying together and singing softly. It felt simply magical. I thought about how, in our busy lives, we 53 stop to share moments like these and how much we should.
On the journey home, my voice was hoarse (嘶哑的) from 54 and my legs tired from dancing, yet my heart was full and content. That night gave me more than just music; it 55 me a cherished memory that would stay with me forever.

The elephant-foot drum dance is one of the most popular and representative traditional dances of the Dai people. In 2008, it (recognize) as a national intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) item.
(traditional), the elephant-foot drum dance is performed by men. As (it) dance steps came from traditional Dai martial arts, anyone wishing to learn this art must first study martial arts. Otherwise, they may lack physical (strong) and flexibility to perform the dance. The dance is physically (challenge) for beginners, as it requires them (carry) a drum, maintain good balance, and keep up with the rhythm. During a performance, dancers carry the drum on their left shoulder, with the drumhead facing forward the end pointing backward. The elephant-foot drum, is named for a resemblance (相像) to an elephant’s foot, is a well-known musical instrument of the Dai people.
Dancers’ right hands strike the drum with fists, palms, and fingertips, while the left hands support the action. Because the drum is long, most dance (movement) are performed with the dancers’ legs, such as squatting (蹲), lifting one leg, and kicking. Whether the dancers strictly follow Dai traditions or create new forms of cultural expression, generations of Dai elephant-foot drum dancers continue to pass on this traditional art their own ways.

It all started with a simple question, “Can I paint your portrait (肖像)?”
In the summer of 2024, Brian Peterson and his wife, Vanessa, had just moved into a small apartment in Santa Ana, California. The neighborhood was unfamiliar, the streets quiet and still. But one sound stood out — every morning and evening, a man’s shouting came from the corner. Dirty clothes, wild hair, long fingernails — the man looked like he hadn’t showered in a year. Brian passed him on the way to work every day. But they never spoke.
One quiet afternoon, Brian sat on his couch, reading Love Does, a book filled with stories about love expressed through action. The sun poured through the window. Then — another shout from outside. Annoyed at first, Brian looked up. But something from the book moved him. Maybe love wasn’t just a feeling. Maybe it was a decision.
Without overthinking, he stood up, walked outside, and approached the man.
“Hi,” he said gently. “I’m Brian.”
The man blinked, surprised. “Matt,” he replied after a pause.
In that first conversation, Peterson learned that Matt Faris had come to California from Kentucky with a dream — he wanted to become a musician. But things fell apart. No job, no money, no home. For more than ten years, he had lived on the streets.
Brian listened. And as he looked at Matt, something unexpected happened. Under the dirt and roughness, he saw depth. He saw a story worth telling.
“It sounds crazy,” Brian said, “but I saw beauty.” And even though Brian, a graduate of the Cleveland Institute of Art, hadn’t picked up a paintbrush in about eight years, he found himself asking, “Would you let me paint your portrait?”
Matt looked at him for a long moment. Then he smiled and said, “Sure.”

When Brian shared the finished painting online, something unexpected happened. Within hours, likes and comments poured in. People were drawn not only to the painting, but to the story behind it — a man so often ignored, now seen in full color. Strangers wrote to say they were moved to tears. A local gallery offered to buy the painting, and the money from the sale was used to help Matt. He got a haircut, new clothes, and even a small room to sleep in. For the first time in years, Matt felt human again. “You didn’t just paint me,” he told Brian gratefully. “You reminded me I still matter.”
Inspired, Brain decided to help more people. He couldn’t stop thinking about the others — men and women with untold stories, passed by every day. With Vanessa’s help, he launched Humans of the Streets, a project that used portrait art to restore dignity and hope. Brian would sit, talk, and listen before lifting a brush. Each portrait came with a name, a face, and a second chance. Donations from the paintings went directly to support the people he painted — food, shelter, even job training. What began as one painting on a quiet afternoon had grown into something far bigger: a movement of love, one face at a time.
