【核心素养】
一、
A couple of years ago I graduated from art school. After graduation I was unsure of what to do with my degree. I had majored in Illustration(插画专业) and loved it, but didn't really feel interested in doing illustrations for any companies. This left me with few options other than freelance(自由职业的) jobs and nannying.
I spent two years working as a nanny doing freelance illustrations on the side. It just wasn't quite enough to pay rent, but I loved it, so I worked well over 50 hours a week, trying to keep up with both.
Just under a year ago I went to a friend's wedding. I couldn't think of a gift for them and really didn't have a lot of money to spare so I used my talents to create a portrait for them. It wasn't much, but I hoped it would be a good gift. When I handed the portrait to them and they unwrapped it, the looks on their faces were something I did not expect. There were joyful tears in their eyes as they cried, “That's us! This is so beautiful!”
It's funny because when I was in art school my least favourite portraits were always assignment. I hated drawing people and was always so much more interested in drawing little furry creatures. Once I saw the looks on my friends' faces after giving them their portrait, it was all over. I suddenly loved portraits and wanted to do more.
I now take portraits to every wedding I go to and have given them as gifts to the families I nannied for. Every time the reaction makes all of the hard work and time I put into them so worth it.
I've just started offering couple, family and pet portraits as an item on my Etsy shop.

A European Union program is letting blind people experience famous paintings for the first time. It uses three dimensional (3-D) printing to recreate famous paintings so they can be touched.
One painting printed with the new technology is Gustav Klimt's The Kiss (Lovers). It is a popular attraction at the Belvedere Museum in Vienna, Austria. The painting shows a man and a woman standing in a field filled with flowers. They wear gold robes(礼袍) and have their arms around each other. The man leans down to kiss the woman.
Klimt finished the painting in 1908. Until now, people who have trouble seeing cannot appreciate the artwork. But thanks to the reproduction they can touch the piece and feel the ridges(隆起) and depressions. Andreas Reichinger started making 3-D versions of artworks in 2010. He said this reproduction was his most difficult project because the couple's robes are so detailed.
Dominika Raditsch is a blind museum visitor. She touched the reproduction. As she moved her hands around it, she said, "Exactly, can you see these? There are so many details." Raditsch said she could imagine what the original painting looked like when she touched the reproduction. "It's somehow round. You can feel it. And in many places it's so smooth. And then I think to myself: it probably shines too!" Raditsch said.
The Belvedere is not the only museum to have 3-D versions of its artworks. Some of the pieces at the Prado Museum, in Madrid, Spain, have reproductions that can be touched. But the piece in Vienna has one special part: it is made with widely available
3-D printing technology. That means one day, blind art fans anywhere in the world will download the source files and print the reproductions themselves.
11.What does the second paragraph intend to do?

B.To attract readers to admire a painting.
C.To tell the background of a painting.
D. To introduce the secret of a painting.

A. The great reputation of the painting.
B. The great details of the painting.
C. The different versions of the artwork.
D. The pose of the characters in the painting.
13.How did Raditsch feel when she touched the reproduction?
A.Awkward.
B. Puzzled.
C. Excited.
D. Nervous.
14.What is the main idea of the passage?
A. A European Union program is quickly developed for the blind.
B.3-D printing technology lets the blind experience famous paintings.
C. A special museum is newly built for visitors in Vienna, Austria.
D. Museums can reproduce the world-famous paintings for the art fans.

根据Since引导的时间状语从句可知,主句应用现在完成时,又因主语she是第三人称单数,所以谓语使用has spent。

根据语境,此处表示她偶然听到了一个故事。

Come across表示“偶然遇见”。

故填across。
