问题     A new painting was hanging in the Hemlock Mills Art Gallery. Throughout the day, visitors stood before the new exhibit and guessed as to what it represented.
    "I think it’s a terrifying monster," said Misty. "There’s no name on it, but I’m sure it was drawn by a famous artist."
    "I would say that it’s a picture of a park as seen from an airplane," mused James. "I see many trees and roads."
    Miss Culture, the local art critic for the Hemlock Weekly News, made her speech.  "This is clearly a masterpiece created by an artist who wishes to be unknown at this stage of his or her career. The brilliant strokes of color symbolize a person who is looking back at an exciting lifetime of accomplishments!"
    At that moment, Mr. Lightman, the gallery owner, entered the room. "Isn’t it great?" he asked with a big smile on his face. "My three year old did that this morning. He says it’s a maze. I think it’s amazing!"
选项 A、acts as if she knows more than she really does
B、is well educated in art and culture
C、is a personal friend of the artist
D、recognizes the value of the painting
答案A
解析 题干是：按照作者的意思，文化小姐是个……人。在文章的第四段可找到答案。作者用了made her speech这样的表达，表示这位艺术评论家侃侃而谈，用了 masterpiece，career，brilliant strokes of color，symbolize，accomplishments等大词，但实际上，这幅画仅是一个三岁小孩的涂鸦。这样对照描写反衬出文化小姐的虚伪。注意：此题的关键在于文中对文化小姐谈话的描写和文章结尾的对照。同时，考生应注意文章在描写Miss Cuhure时用词的变化。
