The park is across from the bank. (改为同义句) The bank 　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　 the park. 【答案】① is     ② opposite 【解析】句意：公园在银行对面。be across from “在……对面”，等同于be opposite “在……对面”。主语The park是第三人称单数，be动词用is。故填is；opposite。 三、单项选择 1.

The room is ________ beautiful flowers and nice pictures. A. filled of B. full with C. filled with D. full of 【答案】D 【解析】句意：房间里充满了美丽的花朵和漂亮的图画。 filled of错误表达；full with错误表达；filled with被……填满；full of充满……。be full of和be filled with都表示“充满”，be filled with侧重“被某物填满”的动作感, be full of侧重“本身满满的状态”，结合“The room is ... beautiful flowers and nice pictures.”，此处应用be full of描述房间的状态。 3. —How ________ the street is! I can’t even hear myself talking. —The construction site next door is making too much ________. A. noisy; noise B. noise; noisy C. noisy; noisy D. noise; noise 【答案】A 【解析】句意：——这条街多吵啊！我甚至听不见自己说话。——隔壁的建筑工地噪音太大了。 noisy吵闹的，形容词；noise噪音，名词。第一句为how引导的感叹句，结构为“How+形容词/副词+主语+谓语!”，空格处需要形容词作表语修饰street，因此第一空填noisy；第二空中too much后接不可数名词，空格处需要名词作宾语，因此第二空填noise。 4. There are some ducks swimming in the ________. A. library B. classroom C. mountain D. pond 【答案】D 【解析】句意：池塘里有一些鸭子在游泳。 考查名词辨析。library图书馆；classroom教室；mountain山；pond池塘。根据“There are some ducks swimming in the…”可知，鸭子应该在池塘中游泳。故选D。 一、选词填空 用所给词适当形式填空。 treasure, create, part, century, beauty Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains is a national 　　　　1　　　　 of China.

A      【解析】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了世界艺术史上三幅著名画作——《蒙娜丽莎》《星月夜》和《格尔尼卡》，阐述了它们的特点、创作背景以及所承载的文化意义，展现了艺术作品跨越时空的魅力。 (1)题： 句意：《蒙娜丽莎》是最有价值的艺术作品之一。 根据后文“About ten million people go to see it every year at the Louvre in Paris.”可知每年有大量的人去卢浮宫看它，说明它很有价值。“valuable”表示“有价值的”，符合语境。“cheap”意为“便宜的”，“small”意为“小的”，“old”意为“古老的”，均不能体现出这幅画受众多人追捧的原因，不符合语境。 (2)题： 句意：它在流行艺术和文化中被广泛复制。 结合前文提到这幅画是著名艺术作品，这里说它被广泛复制，应该是在艺术和文化领域。“culture”表示“文化”，“in pop art and culture”表示“在流行艺术和文化中”，符合逻辑。“food”意为“食物”，“sport”意为“运动”，“music”意为“音乐”，与画作被复制的领域不相关，不符合语境。 (3)题： 句意：它使用了引人注目的色彩和生动的笔触。 根据“lively brushstrokes（生动的笔触）”可知，这幅画的色彩应该是很鲜明、能吸引人目光的。“striking”表示“引人注目的”，符合对画作色彩特点的描述。“dark”意为“黑暗的”，“white”意为“白色的”，“black”意为“黑色的”，都不能很好地体现出与生动笔触相搭配的色彩特点，不符合语境。 (4)题： 句意：它是基于他的观察，以及他的想象、记忆和情感。 根据“as well as（以及）”可知，这里所填的内容和“observations（观察）”“memories（记忆）”“emotions（情感）”是并列关系，都是创作这幅画的依据。“imagination”表示“想象”，符合创作画作时除了观察还需要发挥想象的逻辑。“work”意为“工作”，“study”意为“学习”，“travel”意为“旅行”，均与创作画作的依据不相关，不符合语境。 (5)题： 句意：它展示了他对厚重笔触的创造性运用。 根据前文提到这幅画使用“lively brushstrokes（生动的笔触）”，结合常识可知，生动的笔触往往和厚重的笔触相关，“thick”表示“厚的，浓重的”，符合语境。“thin”意为“薄的”，“short”意为“短的”，“long”意为“长的”，都不能很好地体现出与生动笔触相匹配的特点，不符合语境。 (6)题： 句意：它是最有感染力的反战画作之一。 根据后文“It is recognized all over the world...an anti-war symbol.”可知这幅画被公认为反战象征，所以它应该是反战画作。“anti-war”表示“反战的”，符合语境。“pro-war”意为“支持战争的”，“love”意为“爱”，“hate”意为“恨”，均不符合这幅画的主题，不符合语境。 (7)题： 句意：它展示了战争中人和动物的可怕痛苦。 根据“terrible（可怕的）”以及“in war（在战争中）”可知，战争带来的应该是痛苦。“suffering”表示“痛苦，苦难”，符合语境。“joy”意为“快乐”，“happiness”意为“幸福”，“excitement”意为“兴奋”，都与战争带来的负面感受不符，不符合语境。 (8)题： 句意：它在全世界被公认为反战象征。 “be recognized as...”是固定搭配，表示“被公认为……”，这里表示这幅画被公认为反战象征，符合语法和语境。“for”表示“为了”，“with”表示“和……一起”，“in”表示“在……里面”，均不能与“be recognized”构成这样的搭配，不符合语境。 (9)题： 句意：这些画作不仅是美丽的艺术作品，也是不同时代和文化的象征。 根据前文对三幅画作的介绍，它们都承载着特定的时代和文化信息，所以应该是不同时代和文化的象征。“symbols”表示“象征”，符合语境。“books”意为“书”，“toys”意为“玩具”，“tools”意为“工具”，都不能体现出画作所代表的时代和文化意义，不符合语境。 (10)题： 句意：它们感动着全世界的人。 根据前文对这三幅画作的描述，它们具有很高的艺术价值和文化内涵，能够触动人们的心灵。“move”表示“感动，打动”，符合语境。“hurt”意为“伤害”，“bore”意为“使厌烦”，“surprise”意为“使惊讶”，均不能很好地体现出这些画作对人们产生的积极影响，不符合语境。 一、阅读单选 A篇 Have you ever seen a painting long enough to cover your whole wall? A thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains is one of China’s greatest art treasures. It was painted about 900 years ago during the Northern Song Dynasty by Wang Ximeng. Painted on a whole piece of silk, the painting measures over 11 metres from end to end. It shows a beautiful scene of mountains and rivers in China. It also includes quiet images of fishing villages, markets, simple houses, watermills, and bridges. These peaceful scenes come to life with people fishing, rowing boats, and walking. What makes this painting special is its bright beautiful colors. Wang Ximeng used blues and greens made from minerals. Even after 900 years, the colors are still clear and bright. The mountains look like green jade, and the rivers shine like silks. The story behind the painting is amazing. Wang Ximeng was only about 18 years old when he painted it. He was a student in the emperor’s art school. The emperor, Huizong, loved art and was even his teacher. To show his thanks to Huizong, the young painter worked hard for months to finish this masterpiece. Sadly, Wang died very young. This is the only surviving work by him. For centuries, the painting survived wars and passed through the hands of different collectors. People always protected it because they knew it was priceless. Today, it is carefully kept in the Palace Museum in Beijing. Because light can damage its bright colours, it is seldom shown to the public. 1. How does the writer start the passage? A. By telling a story. B. By using a saying. C. By asking a question. D. By giving hard facts. 2. What is shown in this painting? A. A busy city life. B. A sad family life. C. A noisy mountain. D. A peaceful scene. 3. What is a major feature of the painting according to para. 3? A. Its huge size. B. Its clever use of colours. C. Its long history. D. Its simple black-and-white style. 4.

What can be the best title for this passage? A. A legendary Chinese painting B. The life of a young painter C. The styles of Chinese painting D. Art schools during the Northern Song Dynasty 【答案】1. C     2. D     3. B     4. B     5. A      【解析】本文围绕中国艺术瑰宝《千里江山图》展开，介绍其创作背景、画面内容、色彩特色、背后故事及流传情况。         (1)题： 根据第一段中“Have you ever seen a painting long enough to cover your whole wall?”可知，作者以提问的方式开启文章。 (2)题： 根据第二段中“It shows a beautiful scene of mountains and rivers in China. It also includes quiet images of fishing villages, markets, simple houses, watermills, and bridges. These peaceful scenes come to life with people fishing, rowing boats, and walking.”可知，这幅画展现了和平的场景。 (3)题： 根据第三段中“What makes this painting special is its bright beautiful colours.”可知，这幅画的主要特色是巧妙运用色彩。 (4)题： 根据第四段中“To show his thanks to Huizong, the young painter worked hard for months to finish this masterpiece.”可知，他为完成这幅杰作花费了数月时间。 (5)题： 文章围绕《千里江山图》展开，介绍其艺术价值、创作背景等，是一幅传奇的中国绘画。 B篇 Most runners choose their routes (路线) based on distance or surface. Some pick smooth roads for steady speed, while others choose hills for a challenging workout. But for Lenny Maughan, running is more than fitness—it is also a way to make art. Maughan, who calls himself a “human Etch A Sketch”, creates GPS drawings by running through the streets of San Francisco. He got the idea from apps that runners use to record their routes. “When I was a kid, I was known for drawing funny pictures of people. I had a real talent for it,” he said. “I forgot about it until a little over 10 years ago.” Maughan begins by carefully mapping his design on a paper map of San Francisco. To find the route that works, he often needs to map out several different routes. His goal is to create clear images. Once the route is planned, Maughan runs his “masterpiece”, using a GPS app called Strava to track (追踪) his movement. However, Strava only shows the full image after the run is complete. That means Maughan has to follow his planned route very carefully. One wrong turn can badly influence the artwork. “You can’t see the drawing while you run,” Maughan explained. “So when you finish and finally see it come together, it’s a wonderful feeling.” Over the past ten years, the San Francisco runner has created more than 50 images, from a simple heart to a lively pig. In February 2025, he spent 10 hours running 40 miles to create a snake in honor of the Lunar New Year. But his most famous creation is a line painting of Mexican artist Frida Kahlo, completed in 2019. That image covered almost 29 miles and involved a lot of climbing. “I like to say my legs are my paintbrush and San Francisco is my canvas,” said Maughan. “I love running and I love art. This is a nice way to combine them both.” 1. The author introduces the main character by ________. A. comparing the facts B. raising an interest C. providing background D. explaining a theory 2. How can Maughan successfully create an image from paragraph 3? a．Follow the planned route carefully.   b．Pick out the best route. c．Map out several different routes.   d．Make a wrong turn sometimes. e．Finish the run and get the full image.   f．Enjoy the wonderful feeling. A. b → c → a → e B. c → b → d → e → f C. c → b → a → e D. c → b → a → e → f 3. What does the underlined word “canvas” in the last paragraph refer to? A. A place designed for smooth running. B. A material used for painting on. C. A project combining running and art. D. A tool recording natural beauty. 4. What is Maughan’s best-known GPS artwork? A.  B.  C.  D.  【答案】1. C     2. C     3. B     4. C      【解析】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了Lenny Maughan将跑步与艺术结合，通过跑步路线绘制GPS艺术作品的故事，介绍了他的创作过程、代表作品以及创作理念。 (1)题： 文章开篇先介绍大多数跑步者选择跑步路线的常规情况，铺垫跑步选路线的相关背景，再转折引出本文主角与众不同的跑步方式，作者通过提供背景引出主角。 (2)题： 第三段详细说明了创作步骤：“he often needs to map out several different routes”，首先规划多条不同路线（c），“To find the route that works”，然后选出最佳路线（b），“Maughan has to follow his planned route very carefully”，接着严格按照规划路线跑步（a），“Strava only shows the full image after the run is complete”，最后完成跑步并得到完整图像（e）。 (3)题： 最后一段中，Maughan说“my legs are my paintbrush and San Francisco is my canvas”，结合上下文，这里的canvas是比喻用法，指代创作的载体（旧金山这座城市）。 (4)题： 第四段明确指出：“But his most famous creation is a line painting of Mexican artist Frida Kahlo, completed in 2019.”，因此Maughan最著名的GPS艺术作品是弗里达·卡罗的头像线条画。 一、阅读单选 （来源:2026年湖北省武汉市中考英语试题） A Gentle Reminder of ChildhoodWhen you step on a piece of bread, it turns into a pair of soft shoes. When you hit a ball, it breaks into a whole world of stars. When you see the light in the night sky, it isn’t always the moon. It’s just a step for a cat walking in the air. These magic moments come from Ancho, a cartoon artist. Ancho’s works are playful, heartwarming, and full of surprises and childlike imagination. There is Beauty in DarknessEver seen a painting that tells two different stories? Crisco’s works do exactly that. With the lights on, you see a calm, simple picture. Turn the lights off, and a whole new story appears. Take The Red Balloon as an example. It tells us that: We lose something when we’re young. But don’t worry. Someone or future you will help get it back. It just takes time. ______________________In Rob’s art world, things are never quite what they seem. Stairs (楼梯) can walk into rivers. A city can become a forest. The floor goes into the sky. Are you ready to have your mind pleasantly confused? Look at Unfinished Puzzle. Two kids are putting together a jigsaw (拼图). But as the pieces connect, they turn into a real house. In Rob’s paintings, even space itself does magic. 1. In which SECTION of the newspaper can we read the news? A. ARTS. B. ANIMALS. C. EVENTS.

A. “Good art is the art that makes you feel truly needed.” B. “I paint things that are easy to understand at first sight.” C. “You should make videos about things in your real life.” D. “Keep your childlike imagination, and you will find magic.” 【答案】1. A     2. D     3. B     4. A     5. D      【解析】本文是一篇新闻摘要，介绍了三位艺术家的作品风格：Ancho充满童趣和魔幻想象，Crisco利用明暗呈现双重故事，Rob以超现实手法颠覆视觉认知。 (1)题： 三位艺术家的作品均属于艺术范畴，直接说明这篇文章最可能出自报纸的“艺术”板块。 (2)题： 文章第一段指出“When you hit a ball, it breaks into a whole world of stars.”，直接说明在Ancho的漫画中，球会变成星星。 (3)题： 文章第二段指出Crisco的作品在开灯与关灯时呈现不同故事，并举例《红气球》来说明其风格。直接说明提到《红气球》是为了解释Crisco的绘画风格。 (4)题： 文章第三段描述了Rob艺术世界中的超现实景象：楼梯走进河流、城市变为森林、地板飞向天空等，这些都与视觉错觉有关。由此推断，最佳标题是“眼中的把戏”。 (5)题： 三位艺术家的作品共同特点是充满想象力和创造力。由此推断，他们最可能说“保持童真的想象力，你会找到魔法”。 1 / 6 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ Unit 3 A Taste of Art Section B Vocabulary in Use A组 巩固过关 C组 思维拔高 B组 能力进阶 拓展 链接中考 一、单词拼写 1.

The emperor, Huizong, loved art and was even his teacher. To show his thanks to Huizong, the young painter worked hard for months to finish this masterpiece. Sadly, Wang died very young. This is the only surviving work by him. For centuries, the painting survived wars and passed through the hands of different collectors. People always protected it because they knew it was priceless. Today, it is carefully kept in the Palace Museum in Beijing. Because light can damage its bright colours, it is seldom shown to the public. 1. How does the writer start the passage?

Some pick smooth roads for steady speed, while others choose hills for a challenging workout. But for Lenny Maughan, running is more than fitness—it is also a way to make art. Maughan, who calls himself a “human Etch A Sketch”, creates GPS drawings by running through the streets of San Francisco. He got the idea from apps that runners use to record their routes. “When I was a kid, I was known for drawing funny pictures of people. I had a real talent for it,” he said. “I forgot about it until a little over 10 years ago.” Maughan begins by carefully mapping his design on a paper map of San Francisco. To find the route that works, he often needs to map out several different routes. His goal is to create clear images. Once the route is planned, Maughan runs his “masterpiece”, using a GPS app called Strava to track (追踪) his movement. However, Strava only shows the full image after the run is complete. That means Maughan has to follow his planned route very carefully. One wrong turn can badly influence the artwork. “You can’t see the drawing while you run,” Maughan explained. “So when you finish and finally see it come together, it’s a wonderful feeling.” Over the past ten years, the San Francisco runner has created more than 50 images, from a simple heart to a lively pig. In February 2025, he spent 10 hours running 40 miles to create a snake in honor of the Lunar New Year. But his most famous creation is a line painting of Mexican artist Frida Kahlo, completed in 2019. That image covered almost 29 miles and involved a lot of climbing. “I like to say my legs are my paintbrush and San Francisco is my canvas,” said Maughan. “I love running and I love art. This is a nice way to combine them both.” 1. The author introduces the main character by ________. A. comparing the facts B. raising an interest C. providing background D. explaining a theory 2.

A. b → c → a → e B. c → b → d → e → f C. c → b → a → e D. c → b → a → e → f 3. What does the underlined word “canvas” in the last paragraph refer to? A. A place designed for smooth running. B. A material used for painting on. C. A project combining running and art. D. A tool recording natural beauty. 4. What is Maughan’s best-known GPS artwork? A.  B.  C.  D.  一、阅读单选 （来源:2026年湖北省武汉市中考英语试题） A Gentle Reminder of ChildhoodWhen you step on a piece of bread, it turns into a pair of soft shoes. When you hit a ball, it breaks into a whole world of stars. When you see the light in the night sky, it isn’t always the moon. It’s just a step for a cat walking in the air. These magic moments come from Ancho, a cartoon artist. Ancho’s works are playful, heartwarming, and full of surprises and childlike imagination.
