【2023年新高考全国Ⅱ卷】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. ___16___ 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.
___17___
·Continually challenge yourself to try something new. ___18___ 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.·___19___ 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. ___20___ Push through, give it time and put
in the effort. You will harvest the rewards of an artistic life.
AGet 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】16. C 17. G 18. A 19. D 20. E
【解析】【导语】本文是说明文。文章介绍了了一些开始艺术之旅的好建议。
【16题详解】根据前文“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. (从小开始。我建议使用一个素描本进行小规模的学习和实践。这些小的学习和实践
可以提供灵感,并成为未来更复杂的作品的跳板)”以及后文“You’ll want to look back on
your journey to see how far you’ve come. (你会想要回顾一下自己的艺术之旅,看看自己已经
取得多少进步)”可知,空处应是一个过渡句,从给出建议使用一个素描本进行小规模的学
习和实践,到回顾自己的艺术之旅,所以 C项“Don’t throw away your beginner art. (不要扔
掉你的初学时的艺术作品)”符合文意,和后文形成顺承关系。故选C项。
【17题详解】分析设空处,位于段尾,是对本段总结,根据前文“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. (经常作画,且从生活中作
画。没有什么比不断练习更能提高你的艺术水平了。无论你是绘制静物、肖像还是风景,
都要尽可能地从真实生活中去观察和绘制)”可知,本段主要讲述不断练习绘画,所以 G项
“You’ll develop that painting muscle memory that only comes with repetition. (你会逐渐形成只
有通过反复练习才能获得的绘画肌肉记忆)”是对前文的总结。故选G项。
【18题详解】分析设空处,空处位于第二句,此处应是对前一句的进一步解释,并同时引出后文,根据前文“Continually challenge yourself to try something new. (不断挑战自己,尝
试新事物)”以及后文“Artistic growth can be a bit painful. (艺术的成长可能会有点痛苦)”可知,
A项“Get out of your comfort zone. (走出你的舒适区)”是对前句的进一步说明,和后文构成
顺承关系。故选A项。
【19题详解】分析设空处,位于段首,是本段的中心句,根据后文“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. (寻求并接受有建设性的反馈对于你的成长非常重要。我在社交媒体上发布
我的作品,并因此结识了一些最友好的人。无论我的艺术水平如何,他们都让我感到受到
了重视和尊重)”可知,本段主要讲述了是分享自己的作品,所以D项“Share your work if
you feel comfortable doing so. (如果你感觉舒适的话,分享你的作品)”符合文意,是本段的
中心句。故选D项。
【20题详解】分析设空处,空处位于第二句,此处应是对前一句的进一步解释,并同时引
出后文,根据前文“The journey you’re on won’t follow a straight path. (你的旅程不会是一条
笔直的道路)”以及后文“Push through, give it time and put in the effort. You will harvest the
rewards of an artistic life. (坚持下去,给它时间,付出努力。你将收获艺术生活的回报)”可
知,E项“You’ll hit roadblocks, and you’ll feel discouraged at times. (你会遇到障碍,有时你

易错考点归纳
易错点1 忽视词汇和关键信息衔接导致的错误
(1)忽视词汇线索——代词
典例分析
Until relatively recently, the vast majority of human beings lived and died without ever seeing a
city. The first city was probably founded no more than 5,500 years ago... In fact, nearly everyone
lived on farms or in tiny rural (乡村的) villages. It was not until the 20th century that Great
Britain became the first urban society in history — a society in which the majority of people live
in cities and do not farm for a living.
Britain was only the beginning. 2 The process of urbanization — the migration (迁移)
of people from the countryside to the city — was the result of modernization, which has rapidly
transformed how people live and where they live.
D. Soon many other industrial nations became urban societies.
【错因分析】考生容易因忽视代词线索或者没有分析清楚代词所指代的对象而误选其他答
案。
【试题解析】文章的第一段说英国是第一个城市化的国家,第二段接着说英国仅仅是个开
始,不久许多别的工业国家也成为城市化的社会,这里 many other这个不定代词与前面的
Britain呼应,因此D项为正确答案。
【正确答案】D
(2)忽视词汇线索——同义词/近义词
典例分析
Business management is a term used to describe the techniques of planning, direction, and controlof the operations of a business. 3 One is the establishment (制定) of broad basic
policies with respect to production; sales; the purchase of equipment, materials and supplies; and
accounting.
G. Planning in business management has three main aspects.
【错因分析】有些学生容易忽视词汇复现而误选其他答案
【试题解析】空格前面的一句话提到了planning,direction和control,同时根据空格后面的
One的提示,可知这里G中的planning与前面提到的planning是同一词。
【正确答案】G
易错点2 语意理解错误
典例分析
Making good choices about your own health requires reasonable evaluation. A key first step in
bettering your evaluation ability is to look carefully at your sources of health information.
Reasonable evaluation includes knowing where and how to find relevant information, how to
separate fact from opinion, how to recognize poor reasoning, and how to analyze information and
the reliability of sources…
Go to the original source. Media reports often simplify the results of medical research. Find out
for yourself what a study really reported, and determine whether it was based on good science.
Think about the type of study. ____2____
Watch for misleading language. Some studies will find that a behavior "contributes to" or is
"associated with" an outcome; this does not mean that a certain course must lead to a certain
result… Carefully read or listen to information in order to fully understand it.
Use your common sense. If a report seems too good to be true, probably it is. Be especially careful
of information contained in advertisements… Evaluate "scientific" statements carefully, and
be aware of quackery (江湖骗术).
G. The following suggestions can help you sort through the health information you receive from
common sources.
【错因分析】学生容易因对语意理解有误而误选其他答案。【试题解析】这个选项是一个段落的结尾句,这种选项通常起着总结上文,提示下文的功
能。根据文章第二段、第三段、第四段的首句可以看出作者提供了一些建议,因此本空引
出了下文的多个建议,故选择G项。
【正确答案】G
易错点3 逻辑结构衔接理解错误
典例分析
4 As part of a healthy diet, eat more fruits and vegetables each day. Vitamins (维生素)
C and E help protect eyesight and promote eye health.
A. Eat your greens.
【错因分析】本题学生容易误认为所填句子与文章逻辑结构无关而误选其他答案。
【试题解析】这是一道小标题的试题,位于整个段落的最前面,这样的选项,往往是对下
面整个段落内容的概括和总结,反映整个段落的主旨和大意。这种试题往往需要从下面的
整段中搜索核心词汇,找出做题的线索。空白处后文的内容是:作为健康饮食的一部分,
每天要吃更多的水果和蔬菜。维生素C和E帮助保护视力,促进眼睛健康。这里根据下文
的核心词汇fruits and vegetables,Vitamins可知,A项”Eat your greens.(吃点绿色蔬菜)”能
够概括本段大意。故选A项。

for themselves.Hellman says, " (4) ______ "
Tap into your imagination.Hellman thinks of imagination as "the instrument of hope".Let's say

(4)联系上文题。根据本段标题Seek out success stories.(寻找成功的故事。)可知此处说
的是寻找成功的故事来激励自己。所以"F.By seeing other people succeed,they feel like they
could succeed.看到别人成功,他们觉得自己也能成功。"符合语境。故选F。

happen if you achieved it. "How does it impact you,or how would it benefit others?" he says.

何使他人受益?"他说。)以及下一句And when you can see yourself in the future,that is the
very essence of hope.(当你能看到未来的自己时,那就是希望的本质)可知此处说的是想
象一下制定目标以后会发生什么事情。所以"G.You and I have this wonderful capacity to play
a movie in our head.你和我都有一种神奇的能力,可以在我们的脑海里播放一部电影。"符
合语境。故选G。
本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了一些有助于培养希望的策略。
