- Study them to see marks as meaning — then find your own.

"Accurate" is not the only goal — but expressive is not an excuse for careless. An expressive drawing still controls value, composition, and craft; the wildness is chosen, not accidental.
"画得准"不是唯一目标——但"有表现力"不是潦草的借口。表现性的画仍然控制明度、构图和工艺；狂放是选择的，不是失控的。
Draw your street twice: once in soft, slow graphite on a quiet morning; once in jagged ink after an argument. Pin them side by side — same street, different heartbeat. That difference is your material.
把你的街道画两遍：一遍在安静的清晨用柔和缓慢的石墨；一遍在争吵后用尖锐的墨线。并排钉起来——同一条街，不同的心跳。这种差异就是你的素材。
Expressive marks exaggerate speed, pressure, and direction to carry feeling; distortion may serve intent; and a consistent personal mark vocabulary — your voice — is what examiners hope to find.
表现性笔触夸大速度、压力和方向来承载感受；变形可以服务于意图；而一贯的个人笔触词汇——你的个人风格——正是评卷人希望发现的。
