As an artist who shares her journey on social media, I’m often asked by curious followers how to begin an art journey. Unfortunately, there is no magic list I can offer. I do remember, though, what it was like to be a complete beginner. So I’ve put together some good tips for starting an art journey.
·Start small. I suggest using a sketchbook(素描本)for small studies. These small studies provide inspiration and may be a springboard for more complex works in the future. 36 You’ll want to look back on your journey to see how far you’ve come.
·Paint often and paint from life. There’s no better way to improve than to put in those brush miles. Whether you paint still lifes, portraits, or landscapes, paint from life as much as possible. 37
·Continually challenge yourself to try something new. 38 Artistic growth can be a bit painful. Welcome to the club, we’ve all been there. I love taking on challenges. I once took up a challenge to create a painting every day for a month and post the works online.
· 39 Seeking and accepting constructive feedback(反馈)is crucial to growth. I post my work on social media and, in turn, have met some of the kindest people. They make me feel valued and respected, no matter my level of artistic ability.
The journey you’re on won’t follow a straight path. 40 Push through, give it time and put in the effort. You will harvest the rewards of an artistic life.
A. Get out of your comfort zone.
B. Make career plans and set goals.
C. Don’t throw away your beginner art.
D. Share your work if you feel comfortable doing so.
E. You’ll hit roadblocks, and you’ll feel discouraged at times.
F. Evaluate your performance and, if needed, redefine your role.
G. You’ll develop that painting muscle memory that only comes with repetition.
答案及解析:
36. C. Don’t throw away your beginner art.
这个空格前的句子建议使用素描本进行小型的练习,这些小型练习可以提供灵感,并可能成为未来更复杂作品的跳板。紧接着提到想要回顾你的艺术旅程,看看你已经走了多远。因此,不要扔掉你初学者的艺术作品是合适的,因为它记录了你的成长过程。
37. G. You’ll develop that painting muscle memory that only comes with repetition.
这个空格前的句子强调了从生活中绘画的重要性,无论是什么主题。接下来的句子应该是对频繁绘画的好处的解释,重复绘画可以发展出绘画的肌肉记忆。
38. A. Get out of your comfort zone.
这个空格前的句子建议不断挑战自己,尝试新事物。紧接着提到艺术成长可能会有点痛苦,这是所有艺术家都经历过的。因此,建议是跳出舒适区,这与挑战自己尝试新事物的建议相呼应。
39. D. Share your work if you feel comfortable doing so.
这个空格前的句子提到寻求和接受建设性的反馈对成长至关重要。接下来的句子讲述了作者在社交媒体上发布作品,并遇到了一些非常友好的人。这表明分享你的作品可以让你的艺术之旅更加丰富。
40. E. You’ll hit roadblocks, and you’ll feel discouraged at times.
这个空格前的句子提到你的艺术旅程不会是一条直线。接下来的句子建议你要坚持不懈,给予时间,并付出努力。因此,这个空格应该是关于艺术旅程中可能会遇到的困难,即你会遇到障碍,有时会感到沮丧。

Not all great writers are great spellers.If you want to be published,it's vital to submit a perfect,professionally presented manuscript(原稿).36 No editor is likely to tolerate a writer who does not take the trouble to spell words correctly.
I keep two reference books close-by on my desk:dictionary and thesaurus(同义词词典).I don't trust my laptop's spellchecker.37 Of course,these days there are plenty of online dictionaries and thesauruses,but I'm old-fashioned enough to prefer a hard cover and pages I can leaf through with my fingers.I use the Concise Oxford Dictionary and the Collins Thesaurus.
38 It should give you a precise definition of each word,thus differentiating it from other words whose meanings are similar,but not identical.It will also usually show how the word is pronounced.
In addition,I have an old two-volume copy of the Shorter Oxford Dictionary,picked up a few years ago in a bookshop sale for just 99 pence.Of course,with its 2,672 pages,it's not exactly short.It contains around 163,000 words,plus word combinations and idiomatic phrases.39 However,if l need to check the origin of a word or to look up examples of its usage,there's nothing better.
For well over a hundred years the most influential English dictionary was Samuel Johnson's Dictionary of the English language published in 1755."To make dictionaries is dull(乏味)work,"wrote Johnson,illustrating one definition of "dull":40 A few minutes spent casting your eye over a page or two can be a rewarding experience.
A.I don't often use this dictionary.
B.It takes no account of the context.
C.But I still don't want to replace them.
D.But a dictionary can be a pleasure to read.
E.Of course,a dictionary is not only for spelling.
F.That means good grammar and no spelling mistakes.
G.Dictionaries don't always give you enough information.

39. 答案:A

Overtourism Is For Real: How Can You Help?
Travel promotes understanding, expands our minds, makes us better people, and boosts local economies and communities, but the rapid growth of travel has led to overtourism in certain regions and destinations. 36 certainly not. The loss of what travel offers would be unacceptable in today's world. Here are some tips on making wise decisions to minimize pressure on the places we visit and improve our experience.
· choose mindfully. Oervisited destinations are that way for a reason: they're special. With so many online posts featuring the same places, it's easy to feel like you're missing out. Go somewhere only when the landscape, culture or food deeply draws you. 37
· Get creative. The best way to ease pressure on over-touristed destinations is to go somewhere else. though overtourism is described as a problem affecting the entire world, it's actually concentrated to a small number of extremely popular spots. That means you have tons of less-visited options to choose from. 38 Why not try a regional alternative or check out a popular destination's lesser-known sights?
· 39 Minimize impact and maximize experience by skipping major holidays or rush hour. You'll compete with fewer tourists, save money, experience a different side of a popular place, and boost the economy when tourism is traditionally slower.
Visiting a place that others call home is a privilege(荣幸). Do your part to preserve what makes a destination special in the first place. 40 You may be amazed how much closer you'll feel to the people there.
A. Visit during off-peak times.
B. So, should we stop traveling?
C. Travel for you and no one else.
D. Can overtourism be avoided then?
E. You can still find relatively undiscovered places.
F. You'll find yourself virtually alone, or close to it.
G. consider giving back to the communities you're visiting.
答案解析:
36. B. So, should we stop traveling?
解析:空格前的句子提到了旅游的正面影响,但随后提到了过度旅游的问题。选项B提出了一个反问,引出了下文的建议,符合语境。
37. C. Travel for you and no one else.
解析:空格前的内容是关于选择目的地时要深思熟虑,选项C强调了为个人旅行,不要受他人影响,这与前文的建议相呼应。
38. E. You can still find relatively undiscovered places.
解析:空格前的句子提到了有很多未被过度访问的地方可以选择,选项E提到了仍然可以找到相对未被发现的地方,与前文内容相符。
39. A. Visit during off-peak times.
解析:空格后的内容是关于在旅游淡季或非高峰时段旅行的建议,选项A直接提到了在淡季旅行,与下文内容一致。
40. G. Consider giving back to the communities you're visiting.
解析:空格前的句子是关于做我们的一部分来保护使目的地特别的东西,选项G提出了回馈我们访问的社区的想法,这与前文的建议相吻合。

If you want to develop maximum credibility(可信性), is it better to be a hedgehog(刺猬) or a fox? according to Isaiah Berlin, the hedgehog knows one thing very well, and the fox knows a lot of things.
Is there a clear advantage of one style over the other? Hedgehog thinkers tend to answer yes. 35 And they are usually very credible in doing so. According to Jim Hart, the “hedgehog concept” is one of the factors that lead companies to greatness. They focus on one thing and do it really well. They figure out what they are good at. 36 The hedgehog concept makes perfect sense for companies.
37 Philip Tate has studied the track records of those folks on the Sunday talk shows who make predictions about what will happen. He has found that hedgehogs are not only wrong more often than foxes, but that they are less likely to recognise or admit that they are wrong when events do not match their predictions.
The advantage that. foxes have is that they are more likely to seek out new information from a broader range of sources, and are comfortable with uncertainty and new information. 38 They try to include it in their viewpoint rather than to exclude it from their thinking. They also have a clearer estimation of what they know and don't know.
So, which is better? The question can be answered in a foxy hedgehog style. 39 The choice between being a hedgehog or a fox is a false trade-off. The most effective way to go through life is to try to be that rare mixture known as foxy hedgehog.
A. In other words, there are clear advantages for each.
B. They are more likely to remember people's mistakes.
C. Hence, they have the advantage of clarity and confidence.
D. But there can be a downside to concentration on one big thing.

答案解析:
35. 此处需要填入的句子应该是对刺猬思维者的描述,选项G "They come down squarely on one side or the other and fully support their position" 意为“他们坚定地站在一方,并全力支持自己的立场”,这与刺猬思维者专注于一件事情并且做得很好的特点相符合。
36. 空白处前文提到“他们专注于一件事并把它做得很好。他们知道自己擅长什么”可知,拥有“刺猬”型思维方式的人具备优点,他们可以专注于一件事并知道自己擅长什么。而C项“因此,他们的优势是(头脑)清楚和自信”进一步说明拥有“刺猬”型思维方式的人的优点,承接上文,符合语境。
37. 根据下文,他发现,拥有“刺猬”型思维方式的人不仅比拥有“狐狸”型思维方式的人更容易出错,而且当事情与他们的预测不相符时他们不太可能意识到,也不太可能承认自己错了,可知,此处介绍拥有“刺猬”型思维方式的人的缺点。D项引出下文,介绍拥有“刺猬”型思维方式的人具备缺点,符合语境。故选D。
38. 此处需要填入的句子应该是对狐狸思维者处理新信息的方式的描述,选项F "When something is contradictory to their view, they don't treat it as exceptional" 意为“当某些事物与他们的观点相矛盾时,他们不会将其视为例外”,这与狐狸思维者更愿意接受新信息的特质相符合。
39.空白处前文提到“So,which is better? The question can be answered in a foxy hedgehog style”,其意思是“那么,哪一个更好呢?这个问题可以用狐狸刺猬式来回答”,后文提到“The choice between being a hedgehog or a fox is a false trade-off. The most effective way to go through life is to try to be that rare mixture known as foxy hedgehog”,其意思是“成为刺猬还是狐狸的选择是一个虚假的折衷。人生最有效的方法是努力成为那种罕见的混合物,即狐狸刺猬”,由此可知,此处是在说成为刺猬还是狐狸各有利弊,都有各自的优势,所以选项A“换句话说,每个都有明显的优点”符合语境,所以选项A正确。
