二、阅读下面短文,根据短文内容回答问题或翻译画线部分。
Last month, my school held an art exhibition in the gym, and it became one of the most unforgettable experiences in my middle school life. I was really nervous but also looking forward to it. I even submitted(提交) a watercolour painting of my hometown's old street, which I had spent two weeks preparing.
On the opening day, the gym was crowded with students and teachers. Colourful paintings, delicate(精美的) paper cuttings, and creative sculptures(雕塑) were displayed neatly on the shelves. When I saw my painting hanging on the wall with a small label(标签) with my name, my heart beat fast with excitement. Many classmates stopped to look at it and praised the bright colours I used to show the sunset over the old street.
I also met Ms Li, our art teacher. She patted my shoulder and said, "Lucy, your work tells a warm story about your hometown. Art is not just about being perfect—it's about expressing your true feelings." Her words made me understand the real meaning of art better.
Before leaving, I took a photo with my painting. I will keep it as a special memory. That day, I not only felt proud of my work but also fell more in love with art. It made me realize that art can connect people and share beautiful moments.
1. Where did the school hold the art exhibition?

2. What kind of work did the writer submit to the exhibition?

3. What did Ms Li tell the writer about art?

4. What do you think of art?

5. 将短文中画线部分翻译成中文。

1. In the gym.
2. A watercolour painting of her hometown's old street.
3. Art is not just about being perfect—it's about expressing true feelings.
4. Art is beautiful and meaningful. It helps us show our true feelings.
5. 它让我意识到,艺术可以连接人与人,并分享美好的瞬间。

【分析】
做本题时，先通读短文了解主旨（作者参加学校艺术展的经历），再针对每个问题定位原文对应内容：1. 问展览地点，定位第一段开头；2. 问提交的作品，定位第一段末尾；3. 问Ms Li关于艺术的表述，定位第三段；4. 主观题结合最后一段作者感悟作答；5. 翻译题需准确把握画线句的结构和核心词汇，确保翻译通顺准确。
【解析】
1. 根据短文第一段第一句“Last month, my school held an art exhibition in the gym”，可知展览地点为体育馆，故答案为In the gym.
2. 根据短文第一段最后一句“I even submitted a watercolour painting of my hometown's old street”，可知作者提交的是家乡老街的水彩画，故答案为A watercolour painting of her hometown's old street.
3. 根据短文第三段Ms Li的发言“Art is not just about being perfect—it's about expressing your true feelings”，可知Ms Li的表述，故答案为Art is not just about being perfect—it's about expressing true feelings.
4. 结合短文最后一段作者的感悟（艺术能连接人、分享美好、表达真情等），可回答Art is beautiful and meaningful. It helps us show our true feelings.
5. 画线句“It made me realize that art can connect people and share beautiful moments.”的翻译为：它让我意识到，艺术可以连接人与人，并分享美好的瞬间。
