Ⅰ．阅读理解

(2023·唐山模拟)Three years into my postdoctoral (博士后的) position, I decided I needed a new career plan．After applying for more than two dozen teaching jobs, I hadn't landed a single interview．I was disappointed but not surprised．I was applying in the middle of the 2008 financial crisis, when many universities carried out hiring freezes, and my publication record didn't stand out．

One day after my failed job search, my office mate was amazed by what a journal's scientific illustrator had done to the sketches (草图) in her review article with artistic techniques．I thought to myself, “That would be such a fun job．”A long dormant (蛰伏的) dream of becoming an artist began to stir．

My family was bursting with mathematicians and engineers who pursued music and literature in their spare time, so it felt natural to have my daily life revolve around science, with art as my dreamy lunar companion．I had once considered going to art school but had put that idea aside when I decided to pursue chemistry as an undergraduate．In the years that followed, I kept up my interest in art by taking drawing and painting classes at night．

I decided to test out a new career direction by creating similar illustrations for my institute's newsletters．I spent nights and weekends reading scientific papers and thinking about how to illustrate the results．It was a fun task — something that engaged my artistic, creative side and made use of my scientific training．I felt I was on the right path．

It was exciting to find a career that drew on my diverse skill set．I did feel a sense of loss for not becoming an academic educator, and I worried I'd be letting down the people and institutions who'd invested time and resources in me．But it helped to remind me that my new career path wasn't removed from science．I now work as a visual designer at a biomedical research institute, not far from my husband's company, and my business is flying．

Ⅱ．七选五

Artistic activities like taking a painting class or visiting a gallery are becoming increasingly popular today．  1   However, scientific studies have shown that art plays a critical role in promoting health and well­being．

Art is found to be effective in relieving stress．This applies to both children and adults．Activities such as painting, drawing, and sculpting have been linked to lower stress and mental calmness．They take participants' mind off busy daily work．  2 

Another great benefit of art is that it encourages both kids and adults in imagination and creative thinking．It helps develop and improve problem­solving skills．  3   That allows people to imagine different solutions to problems．This type of creative thinking allows the brain to perform complicated functions in ways that learning a new language does．

  4   It drives the brain to produce a hormone (激素) that makes people feel good about themselves, improves concentration, and increases motivation, providing a sense of accomplishment．After completing a creative project, people will feel happy and satisfied．This process of creating something unique can promote a sense of well­being and even slow down aging．

Sharing the creative process of making art is a great way to help students build their social awareness and interpersonal skills．This can remind schools to have students work with seniors in the community!   5   Creating visual arts helps in transforming lives of people with brain disorders like Alzheimer's disease by increasing connections, promoting cell growth and improving memory．

A．Include artistic activities in the daily life．

B．Creating art helps increase self­confidence．

C．Art is a very interesting topic for people of all ages．

D．There is no right or wrong in the creation of artworks．

E．Consequently, mental states such as fear and worry get set aside．

F．Arrange a trip to the museum or have an art class across generations．

G．People tend to think the benefits of art are only enjoyment and relaxation．

课时质量评价(二十七)

Ⅰ．【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己的职业之旅，受家庭的熏陶，作者选择了与科学相关的专业，获得了博士后学位。同时作者也在追求科学的基础上实现了自己对于艺术的追求，找到了理想的职业。

1． B　细节理解题。根据第一段中的“After applying for more than two dozen teaching jobs, I hadn't landed a single interview．I was disappointed but not surprised．I was applying in the middle of the 2008 financial crisis, when many universities carried out hiring freezes”可知，作者没有找到工作是因为当时是金融危机的困难时期。故选B。

2．A　细节理解题。根据第三段中的“My family was bursting with mathematicians and engineers who pursued music and literature in their spare time, so it felt natural to have my daily life revolve around science, with art as my dreamy lunar companion．”可知，作者的家人很多是数学家和工程师，因此家庭文化影响着作者对科学的选择。故选A。

3．D　推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“I spent nights and weekends reading scientific papers and thinking about how to illustrate the results．It was a fun task — something that engaged my artistic, creative side and made use of my scientific training．I felt I was on the right path．”可知，尽管作者发挥了自己的艺术和创造性的一面，但是仍旧充分利用学到的科学知识，说明作者是有科学追求的；再根据最后一段中的“I did feel a sense of loss for not becoming an academic educator, and I worried I'd be letting down the people and institutions who'd invested time and resources in me．But it helped to remind me that my new career path wasn't removed from science．”可知，作者担心会让在自己身上投入了资源和时间的人和机构失望，说明作者是体贴他人的。故选D。

4．D　标题归纳题。根据第二段中的“A long dormant (蛰伏的) dream of becoming an artist began to stir．”和最后一段中的“I now work as a visual designer at a biomedical research institute, not far from my husband's company, and my business is flying．”可知，尽管选择了科学，作者仍旧追求自己的艺术梦想，并获得两者兼顾的事业。因此推断D项“带着艺术的翅膀起飞”为最佳标题。故选D。
