Almst everyne agrees that art is imprtant, but they disagree n whether gvernments, using taxpayers’ public mney, shuld be funding it. Als, if gvernments d spend mney n art, what artwrks shuld they buy and fr what purpse?
Mst gvernments purchase well-knwn artwrks fr public galleries, such as the Metrplitan in New Yrk, the Natinal Gallery in Lndn, the Luvre in Paris and the Uffizi in Flrence, which are all free t the public.

Its artistic beauty, petic nature and use f histric traditin might shws that sciety is lking fr smething mre psitive and “rted” in its histry again.

Victr Brge nce wrte, “Laughter is the clsest distance between tw peple.” Yet laughter isn’t always psitive fr relatinships. Think f yur friend laughing at yur embarrassing mistake. This kind f unshared laughter can have the ppsite effect.
Nw, a new study explres when laughter wrks as a scial glue. While all genuine laughter may help us feel gd, shared laughter may cmmunicate t thers that we have a similar wrldview, which strengthens ur relatinships.
Researchers at the University f Nrth Carlina fund a way t prduce shared laughter t measure experimentally hw it might impact a relatinship with a stranger. Participants watched a funny, nt-s-funny, r nt-funny-at-all vide while vide-chatting with anther same-sex participant. Unknwn t them, the vide chat displayed a pre-recrded clip (片段) f smene laughing the same amunt fr each f the tw funny vides, but nly smiling ccasinally during the unfunny vide. This prduced mre shared laughter in the first situatin, less shared laughter in the secnd, and n shared laughter in the third. Afterwards, the participants then filled ut questinnaires abut their sense f similarity t their vide partner, and hw much they liked r wanted t get t knw their vide partner.
Results shwed that, acrss the different vides, the amunt f shared laughter had cnsistent (一致的) effects n the participants’ sense f similarity t the vide partner — and that this, in turn, increased hw much participants liked their partner and wanted t affiliate with him r her. “Fr peple wh are laughing tgether, shared laughter signals that they see the wrld in the same way, and it mmentarily imprve their sense f cnnectin,” says Sara Alge, c-authr f the study.
Hw can we put these findings int practice? Alge suggests that relatinship partners may want t find pprtunities t laugh tgether in rder t bst clseness, especially befre having difficult cnversatins. Likewise, shared laughter culd be intrduced int staff meetings t make peple feel mre n the same page and thus becme mre prductive.
12. What is the finding f the experiment?
A. Laughter creates distances.
B. Laughter is a reliable scial glue.
C. Unshared laughter has negative effect.
D. Shared laughter brings clseness.
13. What are the participants asked t d in the experiment?
A. Recrd the reactin t the vides.
B. Vide chat with a same-sex stranger.
C. Fill ut questinnaires n the vides.
D. Laugh the same amunt each time.
14. Which is clsest in meaning t the underlined phrase “affiliate with” in Paragraph 4?
A. Cnnect with.B. Turn t.C. Agree with.D. Refer t.
15. In which situatin is shared laughter prbably used accrding t Alge?
A. During a curt meeting.B. After seeing a dctr.
C. Befre slving cnflicts.D. When taking an exam.

【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了北卡罗来纳大学的研究人员的一项新研究，他们发现共同的笑声可以作为一种社交粘合剂，增强人与人之间的关系。文章还提到了这项研究的结果以及如何将这一发现应用到实际生活中。
【12题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段中“Nw, a new study explres when laughter wrks as a scial glue. While all genuine laughter may help us feel gd, shared laughter may cmmunicate t thers that we have a similar wrldview, which strengthens ur relatinships.”（现在，一项新的研究探索了笑在什么时候会起到社交粘合剂的作用。虽然所有真诚的笑声都能让我们感觉良好，但共同的笑声可以向他人传达我们有相似的世界观，从而加强我们的关系。）和第四段中“Results shwed that, acrss the different vides, the amunt f shared laughter had cnsistent (一致的) effects n the participants’ sense f similarity t the vide partner — and that this, in turn, increased hw much participants liked their partner and wanted t affiliate with him r her.”（结果表明，在不同的视频中，共同笑声的次数对参与者与视频伙伴的相似感有一致的影响——而这反过来又增加了参与者对伙伴的喜爱程度，并希望与他或她建立联系。）可知，实验的发现是共同的笑声能带来亲密感。故选D项。
【13题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段中“Participants watched a funny, nt-s-funny, r nt-funny-at-all vide while vide-chatting with anther same-sex participant.”（参与者在与另一位同性参与者进行视频聊天时，观看了一段有趣、不太有趣或完全不好笑的视频。）可知，实验要求参与者与一位同性陌生人进行视频聊天。故选B项。
【14题详解】词句猜测题。根据划线词后“‘Fr peple wh are laughing tgether, shared laughter signals that they see the wrld in the same way, and it mmentarily imprve their sense f cnnectin,’ says Sara Alge, c-authr f the study.”（研究的合著者萨拉·阿尔戈说：“对于一起笑的人来说，共同的笑声表明他们以同样的方式看待世界，这暂时提升了他们的联系感。”）可知，共同的笑声会让人们觉得彼此看法相似，从而想要与对方建立联系，所以affiliate with在此处的意思是“与……建立联系”，与cnnect with意思相近。故选A项。
【15题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Alge suggests that relatinship partners may want t find pprtunities t laugh tgether in rder t bst clseness, especially befre having difficult cnversatins.”（阿尔戈建议，关系中的双方可能想要找到一起笑的机会，以增强亲密感，尤其是在进行困难的对话之前。）可推知，在解决冲突之前，人们可能会使用共同的笑声来增强亲密感。故选C项。

【语篇解读】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了无聊的好处，两项研究发现无聊可以激发创造力，并提出我们应该学会区分好的无聊和糟糕的无聊。
【16题详解】上文提到““I am dying f bredm,” cmplains the yung wife Yelena in Chekhv’s 1897 play Uncle Vanya. Of curse, if Yelena were arund tday, we knw what she wuld d: pull ut her smartphne and find smething fun. Tday it is easy t get rid f bredm.(在契诃夫1897年的戏剧《万尼亚叔叔》中，年轻的妻子叶莲娜抱怨道：“我无聊得要死。”当然，如果叶莲娜在今天，我们知道她会做什么：拿出她的智能手机，找一些有趣的事情。今天摆脱无聊很容易)”指出人们讨厌无聊，总是想摆脱无聊。C项“But what if bredm is a meaningful experience?(但如果无聊是一种有意义的体验呢?)”与上文构成转折关系，引出下文两项研究的新发现：无聊可以激发创造力，同时C项中“bredm is a meaningful experience”与下文中“That”构成指代关系。故选C。
【17题详解】上文“In ne, researchers asked subjects t d smething bring, like cpying ut numbers frm a phne bk, and then take tests f creative thinkings. The result?(在第一项研究中，研究人员让受试者做一些无聊的事情，比如从电话簿中抄录数字，然后进行创造性思维的测试。结果呢?)”提到一项关于创造性思维的研究并提出问题。B项“Bred subjects came up with mre creative ideas.(无聊的受试者提出了更多有创造性的想法)”回答问题给出答案，说明在这项研究中无聊的受试者提出了更多有创造性的想法，上下文语意连贯。故选B。
【18题详解】上文提到“An restless mind hungers fr stimulatin, s bredm becmes a seeking state,(焦躁不安的头脑渴望刺激，因此无聊成为一种寻求的状态)”说明无聊会让人寻求新的东西。G项“When nt satisfied with yur state, yu’re seeking and engaged.(当你不满足于你的状态时，你就会去寻找和投入)”与上文语意一致，也是中央兰开夏大学的心理学家Sandi Mann的观点，说明无聊会激发人的探索和创新精神。同时下文“kids with “nthing t d” will eventually invent sme fun games t play — with a cardbard bx, a light switch, whatever.(“无事可做”的孩子们最终会发明一些有趣的游戏来玩——用纸板箱、电灯开关等等)”对此进行了举例说明，上下文语意连贯。故选G。
【19题详解】设空句和下文“This might relieve us temprarily, but it shuts dwn the deeper thinking.(这可能会让我们暂时缓解无聊，但它会阻止我们更深层次的思考)”都是Mann的观点，根据下文中“This might relieve us temprarily(这或许会让我们暂时放松)”可知，设空句会提到一种暂时缓解无聊的方法。F项“We try t kill every mment f bredm with mbile devices.(我们试图用移动设备打发无聊的每一刻)”中提出我们用移动设备打发无聊，与下文“This”构成指代关系，上下文语意连贯。故选F。
【20题详解】下文“The gd type inspires yu t see what can cme f it. The bad type, in cntrast, tires yu and makes yu feel like yu can’t be bthered t d anything.(好的类型激励你看到它（带来的好的）结果。相反，糟糕的类型会让你感到疲惫，让你觉得自己什么都懒得做)”提到两种不同类型的无聊。A项“And there is, f curse, bad bredm.(当然，也有糟糕的无聊)”引出下文对两种无聊类型的对比和讨论，上下文语意连贯。故选A。

【36题详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：《时空画师》是由中国作家海漄创作的，在第81届世界科幻大会上获得了最佳中篇小说雨果奖，该大会于2023年10月18日至23日在成都举行。“(hld) in Chengdu n Octber 18th t 23rd, 2023”是后置定语，hld(举行)是非谓语动词，与其逻辑主语the 81st Wrld Science Fictin Cnventin之间是被动关系，用过去分词表被动。故填held。
【37题详解】考查固定句型。句意：这是雨果奖第三次颁发给中国作家。It+is/was+the first/secnd/...+that+sb. has/had dne sth.为固定句型，表示“这是某某第几次做某事”，该句型主句中be动词是is时，从句中谓语动词用has/have dne，be动词是was时，从句中谓语动词用had dne；本句中是“It is the third time that...”，所以从句中应使用现在完成时态has/have dne；又因谓语动词present(颁发)与主语the Hug Award之间是被动关系，且主语是专有名词，所以谓语应用现在完成时的被动语态，单数形式。故填has been presented。
【38题详解】考查介词。句意：他是中国北宋时期一位才华横溢的画家，几个世纪以来人们都对他的杰作《千里河山》赞不绝口。sing high praises fr是固定短语，意为“对……高度赞扬”。故填fr。
【39题详解】考查名词。句意：海雅说：“这幅画的艺术价值以及这位才华横溢的画家本人都值得我们赞赏”。空处作宾语，用名词admiratin，表示“赞赏，钦佩”，不可数名词。故填admiratin。
【40题详解】考查冠词。句意：所以我创造了绘画奇才赵希孟这个角色，通过讲述一个虚构的故事来再现王的传奇。根据后置定语“f painting prdigy (奇才) Zha Ximeng”可知，特指绘画奇才赵希孟这个角色，用定冠词the限定。故填the。
【41题详解】考查形容词。句意：所以我创造了一个绘画奇才赵希孟的角色，通过讲述一个虚构的故事来再现王的传奇。空处修饰名词stry，用形容词fictinal作定语，表示“虚构的”。故填fictinal。
【42题详解】考查定语从句。句意：在故事中，经过许多磨难之后，赵的心灵抛弃了他的身体，进入了一个空间，在那里，一名现代警察正在调查一桩涉及一幅古画的案件。空格处引导非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词space，关系词代替先行词在定语从句中作地点状语，表示“在这个空间”，应使用关系副词where引导。故填where。
【43题详解】考查固定短语。句意：他认为自己更像是一个科幻爱好者，而不是作家。mre (f a)…than (a)…是固定短语，意为“与其说……不如说……；是……而不是……”。故填than。
【44题详解】考查名词。句意：“我很高兴能获得这个奖项，并得到读者的积极评价。”海漄说。可数名词cmment作宾语，结合后置定语frm readers可知，很多读者的评价，用复数形式。故填cmments。
【45题详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：我希望我的作品能激发更多的人思考技术、时间和艺术，并将中国科幻带给全球观众。inspire sb. t d...是固定搭配，意为“激励某人做某事”，用不定式作宾语补足语。故填t think。

Jerel led us back t the shre. The calm water had turned int a mess. The bat bunced up and dwn in the waves. Jerel yelled, “Jump int the bat! Hurry!” We held nt the side f the bat and managed t climb int it. Surprisingly, we fund ur bat stuck firmly in the rcks. What’s wrse, there was a big hle at the bttm. Maybe it was trn pen by the sharp rck.
Suddenly, the rain pured dwn upn us, beating against ur faces and punding ur life jackets. Kaleb was terrified and started crying. We decided t seek shelter frm the rain. Befre we headed back, Jerel shuted, “Wait! Let’s get the bat ut nt the shre! It will help us build a shelter.”
