Three years ago, the designer Charlotte Taylor moved back to her family home in Bromley, where she’d lived as a teenager after living for periods in Paris and a Hackney flat. Her return to this familiar environment became an unexpected source of creative inspiration, allowing her to combine personal history with her innovative design vision.
Despite working on international projects — such as designing a listening bar in Clerkenwell and a store in New York — Taylor’s own home in Bromley best expresses her unique style. A design magazine once called her style “trashy (低成本的) minimalism”, a term she advocates. Her inner urges mix the playful and the significant: fine knives hang beside sculptural objects in the kitchen, and art books are placed next to custom furniture. She finds creative energy in contrasting villages’ quiet routine with lively, imaginative design.
Taylor actively promotes a more human-centered and accessible approach within the design industry. Her projects often feature inviting, lived-in spaces — thoughtfully folded blankets, desks showing signs of work — which reflect a growing desire for authenticity (真实性). She also designs unusual business items, such as artisan lighters or handmade stamps, to gently challenge the formality of her field. Taylor believes good design should be inclusive and joyful, not exclusive or frightening.
Her career has taken an inspiring path. As the daughter of a lighting designer, she studied fine art and later gained recognition by creating 3D digital images of optimistic and fantastical spaces. This led to real-world opportunities, including organizing exhibitions. At the London Design Festival, she filled a Georgian townhouse with works by 30 female designers, aiming to make design feel welcoming to all.
Taylor describes her approach as “organic” and “natural”. She continues to work on various projects — from community art initiatives to furniture design — and dreams of one day designing an uplifting space, like a community hotel, where every detail promotes connection and creativity.
4．What inspired Taylor after returning home
A．The quiet local lifestyle. B．Her family’s design business.
C．Her childhood environment, D．A neighbor’s friendly advice.
5．What is Taylor’s design style like
A．Joyful and genuine. B．Perfect and costly.
C．Strict and traditional. D．Formal and splendid.
6．What made Taylor gain recognition
A．Her real housing projects. B．Her digital art creations.
C．Her design teaching discussions. D．Her published art-related writings.
7．What can be inferred from Taylor’s approach
A．She thinks good design is mostly for experts.
B．She values naturalism over strict formal rules.
C．She prefers following traditional styles closely.
D．She believes design should be perfectly polished.
C
The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) has greatly changed the field of art creation, starting a popular worldwide argument: Will AI eventually take over artistic expression and replace human artists Despite AI’s great progress in creating different works, from visual paintings to audio music, it can never fully replace the unique value of real human artistic expression.
Supporters of AI art praise its impressive achievements and growing popularity. Advanced AI tools such as GPT-4, Midjourney and DALL-E can create high-quality artworks rapidly based on large amounts of data and audio-visual materials. For instance, AI artist Refik Anadol’s masterpiece Unsupervised, shown at the famous MoMa in New York, used 380,000 pictures from the museum’s valuable collection, attracting thousands of visitors. Moreover, free and user-friendly AI tools break traditional limits, enabling art lovers to create wonderful works without having long-term strict specialized training.
However, AI naturally lacks real human experiences and the ability to feel deep, mixed emotions. Most timeless art masterpieces are rooted in artists’ personal life experiences and deep emotional changes. Avril Lavigne’s song Head Above Water, inspired by her hard struggle with Lyme disease and a near-death experience, expresses true feelings of sadness and hope. AI, as a cold machine, only creates works through fixed algorithms (算法) and materials, failing to express such slight and sincere emotions. Additionally, it depends heavily on past artistic data and cannot invent new forms, unlike artists like Anicka Yi who create groundbreaking works by challenging traditions.
In conclusion, AI serves as a useful supporting tool for art creation, rather than a real replacement for human artists. It widens art’s limits, improves creation efficiency and makes art more approachable to the general public. Yet, it cannot fully understand the mixed parts of human emotions or create completely new artistic styles. Finally, human creativity rooted in unique life experiences remains irreplaceable in artistic expression.
8．What can we learn about the artwork Unsupervised
A．It was created without data. B．It set an example for traditional arts.
C．It was popular and shown at MoMa. D．It was the first AI artwork in museums.
9．Why does the author mention the song Head Above Water
A．To show AI lacks sincere emotions. B．To explain disease inspires artists’ creations.
C．To prove life-struggle songs more attractive. D．To make human artists gain popularity easily.
10．What does the underlined word “groundbreaking” in Paragraph 3 mean
A．proud B．creative C．original D．smart
11．Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text
A．AI Art: Tools for Progress B．AI Art: A Challenge to Humans
C．AI vs Humans: Helper or Competitor D．AI vs Humans: Who Wins in Modern Art
D
If you were to walk through each of the Louvre’s 400 galleries (展厅), you would cover about 14.5 km. Stop to look at each artwork for 15 seconds, and you would be there for about 145 hours. As a result, few of the nearly 9 million people who visit the Louvre each year leave feeling as if they have truly mastered it.
Elaine Sciolino, formerly the leader of The New York Times, has volunteered herself as a tour guide. In the book Adventures in the Louvre, she does not try to take readers through every room or write the museum’s long and colorful history. Instead, she focuses on central topics and small details that will interest them.
The writer has a reporter’s knack for raising a good question. Of all the faces in the Louvre, “Who is the fairest one of all ” she asks Sébastien Allard, director of paintings, who offers five suggestions (by Jacques-Louis David, Rembrandt, Pisanello, Titian and Johannes Vermeer). Many Louvre workers think the Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci, the world’s most famous artwork, is not as good as people say. Yet around four-fifths of visitors come mainly to see it and pay little attention to other treasures.
Even people who understand the collection well can still learn something. For example, about 1,700 works have “mnr” on their labels (标签), which stands for Musées Nationaux Récupération, or National Museums Recovery. That means they are looked after by the Louvre but aren’t part of its collection.
For the Louvre, history ended in 1848 — later masterpieces are in France’s other national museums — but its change continues. Recently French government started a renovation (翻新) costing $800m-900m, which would, among other things, give the Mona Lisa her own gallery. Visitors will have even more need of a knowledgeable guide.
12．Why does the author list the numbers in paragraph 1
A．To prove the value of artworks.
B．To recommend the best tour path.
C．To show the large size of the Louvre.
D．To stress the speed of viewing artworks.
13．What does the book Adventures in the Louvre focus on
A．Every room of the Louvre.
B．The long history of the Louvre.
C．Well-known artworks in the Louvre.
D．Specific topics and details in the Louvre.
14．What does the underlined word “knack” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A．Hobby. B．Skill. C．Task. D．Chance.
15．What is the best title for the text
A．The Mona Lisa: A Perfect Work
B．The Louvre: Facts You May Not Know
C．The Mona Lisa: The Star of the Louvre
D．The Louvre: A Must-Visit for Art Lovers
二、阅读七选五：
In galleries around the world, visitors spend an average of 15 seconds reading a wall label and a mere three seconds actually looking at the artwork beside it. Art, like much else today, has become something to consume rather than appreciate.
16 Our visual lives are overloaded, shaped by endlessly checking the phone and a significant amount of imagery on the internet. Gallery visits, too, can feel rushed. Crowds, noise, tiredness and the potential pressure to move along all go against meaningful engagement. Even the rhythm of exhibitions-crowded introductory rooms, long texts, carefully managed flow-encourages looking to be fast and structured.
Yet the act of seeing, not fast looking, is an active process. 17 The faster we move, the less we truly perceive. What gets lost in this hurry is the exchange between viewer and artwork: the space where emotion, insight and imagination meet.
Slow looking is a cure to the pace of modern life. 18 The simplest and hardest step is to put away the phone. By disconnecting from the constant stream of images, attention is regained. 19 Information can wait; observation cannot. Spend time with the work itself-its colors, forms and moods. Notice where your eyes rest, how your body feels, and what emotions emerge.
The rewards of looking slowly are profound. Beyond the aesthetic (美感), the act can be refreshing, even transformative. Research shows that engaging with art in person improves wellbeing, which artists, philosophers and poets have long felt in their bones. 20
A．The behaviour is hardly surprising.
B．It is not a method but a habit to be formed.
C．Art speaks softly where words often fall silent.
D．True engagement takes time and careful thought.
E．Then resist the urge to read the label straight away.
F．So slow your steps the next time you’re in a gallery.
G．The artwork makes an impact on visitors of all ages.
三、完形填空：

四、语法填空：
For many British, Temeraire was a powerful 36 (remind) of their nation’s long history of military success. In 1939, J.M.W.Turner began working on his painting, 37 title is The Fighting Temeraire.
It shows the old sailing ship, the Temeraire, on the River Thames near London. There’s a small tugboat, 38 (pull) the old ship.
The picture, 39 , is more than just a painting of two boats in the evening. The artist wanted to show the end of an era. The time of the beautiful, old sailing ships is coming to 40 end. Rather than placing Temeraire in the middle of his canvas, Turner painted the warship near the left edge of the canvas. He used 41 (shade) of white, grey, and brown for the boat, 42 (make) it look almost like a ghost ship. The mighty warship is being pulled along by a tiny black tugboat, whose steam engine is more than strong enough 43 (control) its larger counterpart. That’s why we see this happening at sunset. In the little, black tugboat we can see the new 44 (industry) era starting.
Turner 45 (paint) The Fighting Temeraire when he was quite old, and perhaps he wanted to show the sun setting on his own life, too. He loved the painting and he never sold it. You can see it today in the National Gallery in London.

七、写作：
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。
My classmate Oliver was always quiet. He sat at the back of the classroom, rarely speaking up in lessons or joining in group chats during breaks. His grades were average, so he barely left an impression on anyone. But I often noticed his small, kind acts: he’d pick up chalk pieces after class and place them neatly on the teacher’s desk, help carry stacks of homework to the office, and silently lend his stationery (文具) to classmates who forgot theirs — never asking for thanks or mentioning it afterward.
Last month, our class planned a short play for the school art show. We spent weeks practicing after school, and the backdrop — painted together by several classmates with blue sky, green grass, and bright flowers — was a key object. But two days before the performance, someone accidentally knocked over the shelf holding the backdrop, tearing a long, ugly rip (裂口) across the middle. Everyone panicked: no one knew how to fix it, and there was no time to redraw a whole new one. Our teacher tried to think about a proper solution. Some suggested giving up the play entirely, while others argued we should perform with the torn backdrop and apologize to the audience. A few even proposed switching it to a singing act at the last minute. Just then, Oliver, who’d been standing quietly in the corner, stood up slowly. “I can try to repair it,” he said softly. “I like drawing in my free time, and maybe I can cover the tear.”
We had no other choice but to let him try. Oliver spread the torn backdrop on an empty desk, took out his colored pencils, watercolors, and glue, and got to work. He didn’t say a word the whole afternoon, only pausing occasionally to compare the colors with the original design. When we gathered around him as the bell rang for dinner, we were shocked that the repair was so perfect that you could barely tell it had been broken. No one had ever guessed this quiet boy had such a wonderful talent for art.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
We finally saw Oliver’s shining side that day.
