Even more _22_, with the return to face-to-face interaction, consultation requests are not slowing down.

49、imperfection做宾语,且为可数名词,此处是泛指,应用复数形式,故选A。【22题详解】考查副词。句意:更令人惊讶的是,随着面对面交流的回归,咨询请求并没有减缓。由下文“with the return to face-to-face interaction, consultation requests are not slowing down.”可知,虽然人们可以面对面交流,不再视频会面,但是人们还是想改变自己的身体缺陷,这是令人很惊讶的,所以空处应用副词surprisingly修饰整个句子,作状语,意为“令人惊讶地”,故选F。【23题详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:长期以来,心理学研究一直

51、聚焦,会扭曲人们的外表,使眼睛看起来更小,鼻子看起来更大。由上文“with their close”可知,相机的近距离聚焦会扭曲人们的外表,所以空处表示“聚焦”应用名词focus做宾语,且为不可数名词,故选G。【25题详解】考查副词。句意:做整容手术的医生都知道,近年来,名人照片的修饰,甚至社交媒体的过滤,使身体变形现象日益恶化。由下文“worsened in recent years by retouched (润饰的) celebrity photos or, even more recently, by social media filters”可知,名人照片的修饰,甚至社交媒体的过滤,
52、使身体变形现象日益恶化,空处应用副词修饰动词worsened(恶化;变坏),意为“不断增加地”,应用increasingly,故选I。【26题详解】考查名词。句意:畸形恐惧症是个骗局,因为人们没有意识到视频通话会造成失真。由上文“Front-facing cameras, with their close_, can distort (使失真) peoples appearance”可知,视频通话会造成失真,所以空处应用名词distortion(失真)做宾语,且此处为不可数名词,故选D。【27题详解】考查形容词。句意:Jane的感情很复杂。由下文“It feels juvenile (幼稚的)
53、 as a 40-year-old women to think about my looks like a teenager. Therere bigger problems in the world”可知,Jane的感情很复杂,因为她看到自己在屏幕上不那么好看想整形,但是她又认为自己很幼稚,空处应用形容词mixed做定语,修饰名词feelings,意为“复杂的”,故选K。【28题详解】考查动词。句意:“但是解决我对自己外表的焦虑可能会引发一种不安全感,”她说。由下文“It feels juvenile (幼稚的) as a 40-year-old women to think about
54、my looks like a teenager”可知,Jane认为自己整形很幼稚,虽然整形能解决自己对外表的焦虑,但是会引发一种不安全感,be likely to do意为“可能做某事”,所以空处应用动词原形spark,意为“引起”,故选E。III.

82、 TV show called PUI PUI MOLCAR. The show features cute guinea pig cars getting into all sorts of crazy situations. In addition to the charming characters, people love the shows quirky style of animation, which is known as stop motion, and its a technique with a long and interesting history. In a sto
83、p-motion film, the characters are represented by models, puppets, or toys. The animator arranges them in the desired position, takes a photograph, adjusts each objects position slightly, takes another photo, and repeats the process. When all these photos are arranged in sequence, the objects appear
84、to be moving. The first use of this technique was in a short film called The Humpty Dumpty Circus in 1898. In early Hollywood, film directors began to blend stop-motion with live action to create (at the time) jaw-dropping special effects. For example, the 1925 fantasy film The Lost World featured s

Indeed, the brains behind those revolutionary techniques, the animator Willis OBrien, would go on to create perhaps the worlds most famous stop-motion monsterthe giant gorilla in 1933s King Kong. By the 1990s, stop-motion was being used in everything,
86、including movies, TV advertisements, and music videos. Programs like the Swiss claymation series Pingu charmed audiences with their endearing characters and style. Then suddenly, everything changed. Computer-generated images (CGI) with special effects began to really take off. Directors were eager t

And although several outstanding stop-motion movies were released in the 90s (The Nightmare before Christmas, for example), it was Pixars 3-D animated hit Toy Story that would become the decades defini

101、osts are going up and money is tight, so any ways to save money are going to be more than welcome. One area its common to overspend is your mobile phone. You really shouldnt be paying more than 8 or 10 a month, so if youre currently charged 20, thats at least 120 saved a year. And if your bill is ev
102、en higher, the savings will be even bigger. So how do you do this? Here are my quick and simple ways to reduce your bills. Ditch your existing networkThough there seem to be dozens of different mobile networks, there are actually only four different signals. These are provided by the big four of EE,
103、 O2, Three and Vodafone. All the others “piggyback” on one of those, meaning you can find the same signal and coverage (though 5G might not be includedwell come back to that). So theres no need to be scared that changing provider will mean you lose reception. This opens up a raft of (usually) cheape
104、r alternatives. Do you need 5G?The fastest speeds come with 5G coverage, and its tempting to choose a network that offers this. But to take advantage you need two things. A 5G capable phone and for 5G to be set up in your area. If you dont have both of these, then its worth shopping around for a che
105、aper 4G SIM. Dont update your handset. Going SIM-only is a sure fire way to cut costs. By keeping your existing phone for another year or two, youll reduce your monthly payments to just the calls, data and texts allowance. If you do need or want to upgrade, then try to buy it outright. Yes, this cou

Turn off data abroadAs a result of leaving the EU, some of the networks have ditched free mobile roaming (漫游) in Europe. This could lead to very expensive extra charges for using your phone on
107、holiday, so make sure you check the costs levied by your provider when abroad. Some have introduced daily caps, but theyre not always valid outside Europe. And even if you dont actively use your phone when away, many apps are still using data in the background. One easy way to avoid these extras is
108、to turn off data roaming before you leave the country. You should also find out whether youll be charged to receive voicemail messages. If so, turn that off too before you depart.Check youre out of contractThese savings will come when you dont have a contract. That allows you to change your plan or
109、even your network. But if you are still in the midst of a contract that lasts 12, 18, 24 or more months, youll need to wait or face early cancellation charges. Put the date in the diary, and come back to this article to start cutting your bill.48. Changing mobile network provider will not lead to yo

135、ory Behind Pablo Picassos MasterpieceWhat would be the best way today to protest against a war? How could you influence the largest number of people? In 1937, the Spanish artist Pablo Picasso expressed his anger at war with Guernica, his muralsized painting displayed to millions of visitors at the P
136、aris Worlds Fair. It has since become the 20th centurys most powerful indictment(控诉)against war, a painting that still feels intensely relevant today. Much of the paintings emotional power comes from its overwhelming size, about 3. 49 meters tall and 7.76 meters wide. Guernica is not a painting you
137、observe with 6; spatial detachment(空间上的超然)._54_. And although the size and multiple figures reference the long tradition of European history paintings, this painting is different because it challenges rather than accepts the idea of war as heroic. Guernica is based on the events of April 27, 1937, w
138、hen Adolf Hilters powerful German air force bombed the village of Guernica in northern Spain, a city of no strategic military value. For over three hours, 25 bombers dropped 100,000 pounds of explosives and bombs on the village. Twenty more fighter planes strafed (低空扫射)and killed defenseless civilia
139、ns trying to escape. The destruction was horrifying: Fires burned for three days, and 70 percent of the city was destroyed. A third of the population, 1,600 civilians, were wounded or killed. On May 1, 1937, news of the bombing reached Paris._55_. After hundreds of sketches, the painting was done in
140、 less than a month and then delivered to the Fairs Spanish Pavilion. The entire pavilion shocked the world into confronting the suffering of the Spanish people. On first glance, Guernicas composition appears confused, throwing the viewer into the midst of intensely violent action. The space is ambig
141、uous (不明确的)with the shifting perspectives and multiple viewpoints characteristic of Picassos earlier Cubist style._56_. However, there is in fact a visual order. Picasso balances the composition by organizing the figures into three vertical (垂直的) groupings moving left to right, while the center figu
142、res are stabilized within a large triangle of light. There has been almost endless debate about the meaning of the images in Guernica. When questioned about its possible symbolism, Picasso said, “It isnt up to the painter to define the symbols. Otherwise, it would be better if he wrote them out in w
143、ords. The public who look at the picture must interpret the symbols as they understand them.”_57_. Perhaps it is that very ambiguity, or the fact that cruel wars continue to be fought, that keeps Guernica as timeless and universally relatable today as it was in 1937.A. In the end, the painting does
144、not appear to have one exclusive meaning.B. This technique further demonstrates the boundaries of fragmented figures, explicating what is reality and what is illusion.C. It feels like it wraps around you, immersing you in its larger-than-life figures and action.D. Images overlap and intersect, makin
145、g it hard to distinguish their boundaries.E. As compensation, Picasso was provided with a studio in Paris large enough to accommodate the enormous canvas on which to create the work.F.
