答案:
①saving ②impressive ③completely ④started ⑤to work ⑥have been created ⑦an ⑧what ⑨cities ⑩to/into
解析:
①考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,save与主语Gabi Rizea之间是逻辑上的主谓关系,故应用
动词-ing形式表示自然而然的结果,故填saving。
②考查词形转换。根据空后的works of art可知,空处应填形容词,故填impressive。
③考查词形转换。分析句子可知,空处要用副词,故填completely。
④考查时态。由前面的时间状语Three years ago可知此处用一般过去时。
⑤考查非谓语动词。allow sb. to do sth."允许某人做某事"。
⑥考查主谓一致、时态和语态。由时间状语 so far可知,此处应用现在完成时;about 40 works of
art与create之间是被动关系,故应用被动语态,且主语为复数,故填 have been created。work of
art"艺术品"。
⑦考查冠词。此处是一次采访,表泛指,且interview的发音以元音音素开头,故填an。
⑧考查主语从句。分析句子结构可知,该空引导主语从句,并在从句中作主语,故填what。
⑨考查名词复数。由空前的different可知此处要用名词的复数形式。
⑩考查介词。change…to/into…"把……变成……"。此处表示把树干变成艺术品。
二、拓展提升
I.阅读理解
A
France is a country of great food,great fashion,and great art.It was also the birthplace of various
painting movements and has been home to the world’s most influential painters.
Claude Monet
Claude Monet started the Impressionist movement that completely changed the face of French
painting in the second half of the 19th century.He first started out with selling charcoal pictures in Paris and
started painting with oil after meeting Eugene Boudin.Eugene,who taught him to use oil paints,also
更多资料添加微信号:hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺:乐知课堂encouraged him to paint outdoors,a technique that he mastered later.
Vincentvan Gogh
Vincent van Gogh was a post-Impressionist French painter of Dutch origin whose work had a huge
influence on the 20th century art.His early works consisted more of somber( 忧 伤 的 ) earth
tones.However,influenced by Gauguin,Monet,Pissarro,and Bernard,he adopted brighter colors in his
works,started experimenting with various techniques and formed his own.Having produced more than
2,000 works of art,the artist sold only one painting during his lifetime—TheRedVineyardatArles.
Édouard Manet
As one of the first artists to paint modern life,he began to paint in his own style,maintaining some of
Couture’s technique like the use of thick lines and dark colors.He was greatly influenced by Claude Monet
and Berthe Morisot,which can be seen in his use of light shades.Most of his paintings show scenes from
daily life on the streets of Paris.
Camille Pissarro
In his early years,Pissarro painted scenes of rivers or paths from memory.After meeting Paul
Cezanne,who shared his interest of painting in a more realistic style,he changed his course to
Impressionism.During his career,he experimented with various styles and formed his own one.
1.Who was one of the founders of the Impressionist movement?
A.Claude Monet. B.Vincent van Gogh.
C.Édouard Manet. D.Camille Pissarro.
2.How do we know Édouard Manet was influenced by Claude Monet and Berthe Morisot?
A.From his use of thick lines.

D.From his paintings about daily life.
3.What did the four painters have in common?

【语篇解读】本文是应用文。文章介绍了四位法国画家,克劳德·莫奈,文森特·凡·高,爱德华·马奈
和卡米耶·毕沙罗。他们都对世界绘画艺术产生了巨大的影响。
答案:1-3 ACD
解析:
1.A
细节理解题。根据“Claude Monet started the Impressionist movement that completely changed the face
of French painting in the second half of the 19th century..”可知,克劳德·莫奈开始了印象派运动,所以是
印象派运动的创始人。其他三位画家在他们的介绍中都没有提到。
2.C
细节理解题。
根据“HewasgreatlyinfluencedbyClaudeMonetandBertheMorisot,whichcanbeseeninhisuseoflightshades.”
可知,从光的色调中可以看出他受到了上面两人的影响。粗线条和深色是Couture的技巧,日常生活是
他画的内容,所以其他三项都可排除。
3.D
推理判断题。根据对凡·高介绍中的“painter of Dutch origin”排除A项;除对克劳德·莫奈
的介绍中提到“教”和paint outdoors之外,其他三人的介绍中都没提到,所以排除B、C
两项;对四位画家的介绍中都提到“形成了自己的风格”,所以选D项。
B
We see art everywhere around us. In parks, city squares, shopping streets and public buildings, we find
modem art objects on display. Classical art, such as valuable paintings and precious sculptures, usually
ends up as the collections of museums, companies or rich people.
Both art and architecture have a history of ages. All forms and ways of expressing the beautiful things
have been explored. In the case of architecture, many buildings designed in the past have proven beautiful
and served their purposes. Governments and companies could save millions of dollars by copying the
architecture of buildings from the past. There are still many designs for buildings made by famous
architects that were never realized. Besides, some people find modem architecture ugly. So why should we
make an investment in architecture for designing new buildings?
The same holds for modem art, both paintings and statues. Many storerooms contain enough art to
decorate all public buildings and other public places. There is no need to create more art, and as with
更多资料添加微信号:hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺:乐知课堂modern architecture, many people find new art difficult to understand or appreciate.
Given these facts, why are architects and artists asked to create new artworks? The answers have to do
with the function of art in society today. First of all, the function of art is to decorate things. Artworks make
our living environment more beautiful. Another function of art is enriching real life. Art helps people to
learn to think creatively. In art things are not always what they seem to be. Very often you can hardly tell
what the funny art objects are. People need such creative moments. Finally, art is often seen as a way to
instruct the audience. Statues of heroes from the past remind us of our history. Paintings and other art
objects can also help us realize what goals we should set for ourselves.
Because ideas about social change and every period of time have their own tastes, there is always a need
for new art. We can still appreciate the beautiful artworks made in the past, but they are often too valuable
to be placed in public buildings. Besides, they also often need special protection.
1.According to the passage, who owns collections of ancient statues and paintings?
A. Parks or city squares.
B. Shopping streets or public buildings.
C. Museums, companies or rich people.
D. Some historic sites.
2.What's the writing purpose of Paragraph 2?
A. To explain why some people find modern art ugly.
B. To introduce the necessity of new art.
C. To show the benefits of copying designs from the past.
D. To prove both art and architecture have a long history.
3.Why can't we use old art to decorate public buildings?
A. Because they need long-lasting restoring.
B. Because more people prefer modem art.
C. Because of the changes and difference in taste.
D. Because of their value and need for protection.
4.What does the fourth paragraph mainly talk about?
A. The functions of art in society today.
B. The functions of architecture.
C. The reason why art is difficult.
D. The reason why art is precious.

解析:1.细节理解题。根据第一段中的Classical art, such as valuable paintings and precious sculptures,
usually ends up as the collections of museums, companies or rich people.可知,古代雕像和绘画收藏品
常被博物馆、公司或富人收藏。故选C。
2.推理判断题。根据本段的主要内容,尤其是So why should we make an investment in architecture for
designing new buildings?可推测本段的目的是引出新艺术品的必要性。故选B。
3.细节理解题。根据最后一段中的We can still appreciate the beautiful artworks made in the past, but
they are often too valuable to be placed in public buildings. Besides, they also often need special protection.
可知,古老的艺术品太珍贵了,不能被用来装饰公共建筑,它们还经常需要特殊的保护。故选D。
4.主旨大意题。根据本段的主要内容,尤其是关键句 The answers have to do with the function of art in
society today.可知本段主要介绍了当今社会中的艺术品的作用。故选A。
