【答案】
1．A
2．D
3．A
【分析】
这是一篇应用文，介绍了四项顶尖的高中生自由写作比赛。
1．
细节理解题。
根据“YoungLionsFictionContest”部分第二句“Fivefinalistsarerecognized,withonetakinghomethegrandprizeof$10,000.”（五名入围者获得认可，其中一人获得1万美元的大奖。
）可知，一人可获少壮狮子小说大赛大奖。
故选A。
2．
根据“53-WordStoryContest”部分第二句“Thepromptchangeseachmonth,andtheresponsesmustbe53wordsexactly.”（提示每个月都有变化，回复必须精确到53个字。
）可知，53字故事大赛的参赛作品必须正好包含53个单词。
故选D。
3．
推理判断题。
根据“SignetEssayContest”部分“$1,000tobeusedtowardsyourhighereducation”（1000美元用于你的高等教育）和“OceanAwarenessContest”部分“Scholarshipsupto$1,500”（高达1500美元的奖学金）可知，这两个比赛提供奖学金，但“YoungLionsFictionContest”和“53-WordStoryContest”部分没有提到奖学金，所以提供奖学金不是这四个比赛的共同点，排除选项B；
根据“53-WordStoryContest”部分最后一句“Onlystoriesarepermittedandonlyonesubmissionperwriterpermonthisallowed.”（只有故事是允许的，每个作家每月只能提交一次。
）可知，“53-WordStoryContest”只接受故事形式的作品，所以选项C不是共同点，排除选项C；
根据“OceanAwarenessContest”部分第一句“TheOceanAwarenessContestaimstorecognizewriterswhileraisingawarenessabouttheclimatecrisis.”（海洋意识竞赛旨在表彰作家，同时提高对气候危机的认识。
）可知，“OceanAwarenessContest”关注环境问题，但其它三个比赛并没有提到环境问题，所以选项D不是共同点，排除选项D。
这四个比赛都没有提到参加比赛要收费，所以选项A是共同点。

本文是一篇记叙文。
讲述了作者刚进入大学找不到自己想要追寻的学术道路，在大学听过艺术史课程后坚定自己的学术方向的事情。
作者坚信一个全面发展的社会需要每个人都接受早期的艺术教育，相信艺术对人的重要作用-让心灵长出翅膀。
4．
词句猜测题。
根据第一段“…Iwasaconfused19-year-oldatthetime,unsureofwhatacademicpathIwantedtopursue.（当时我是一个困惑的19岁的孩子，不确定我想走什么样的学术道路。
）”和“IknewthatIhadalwaysbeenfascinatedbythingsthatmademequestiontheworldaroundme,andmyarthistoryclasswasthefirsttimeIreallygottogetmyfeetwet.（我知道我一直被那些让我质疑周围世界的事物所吸引，而我的艺术史课是我第一次真正让我想去尝试。
）”可知，这里描述的是作者从开始的迷茫到遇到艺术史课，让他想要尝试。
即：
作者开始学着欣赏艺术。
“and”表示递进。
“getone’sfeetwet”（初次尝试做某事,涉足）。
故选C项。
5．
根据第二段“Myprofessor,apost-graduatewithnatty（齐整的）hair,entertaineduswithherstoriesoftravelandrevealedtheartsoftheworldtous…（我的教授是一名研究生，留着一头整洁的头发，她用她的旅行故事来让我们感兴趣，并向我们展示了世界的艺术）”可知，作者提到教授的原因是显示其对艺术热爱的起源。
故选B项。
6．
根据最后一段“Istronglybelievethatawell-roundedsocietyneedseveryonetohaveanearlyeducationinthearts.（我坚信一个全面发展的社会需要每个人都接受早期的艺术教育）”可知作者是支持进行艺术教育的。
7．
根据第三段“ItwasonlyafterthathumblearthistoryclassthatIrealizedwhatIhadbeenmissing.（正是在上了那堂不重要的艺术史课之后，我才意识到我错过了什么。
）”和“Istronglybelievethatawell-roundedsocietyneedseveryonetohaveanearlyeducationinthearts.（我坚信一个全面发展的社会需要每个人都接受早期的艺术教育）”可知，作者在用自己的教育经历来呼吁接受早期艺术教育的重要性，提高人们艺术教育修二意识。
故选D项。
