Instructions ›
You will hear a recording. Type the missing words in each blank.
* Fill in the missing words into the blank fields
The  artist  competition  has  no  age  limitation,  allowing  participants  of  all  generations  to  apply.  However,  applicants  must  have  a    level  of  education  and  possess  experience  in    exhibitions.  In  recent  years,  the  competition  has  shifted  its  focus  towards    state,  emphasizing  artworks  that  reflect  realistic  themes  and  contemporary  social  issues.  Judges  highly  value  pieces  that  showcase  technical  excellence  while    innovative  concepts.  This  event  is  widely  recognized  as  a  based    competition,  meaning  that  only  artists  with  a  professional  background  in  fine  arts  are  eligible  to  participate.  Winners  often  gain  significant  recognition  in  the  art  community  and  receive  opportunities  for  exhibitions  and  collaborations.
