Many artists include drawing of nature in their works. But the results can be very different. Here are four of
the most famous.
Stanislaw Witkiewicz（1885-1939）was a Polish artist. You often see his paintings in art galleries in Poland.
Many people like Witkiewicz’s paintings of people’s faces, but I prefer his paintings of nature and landscapes. This
one（painted in 1907）shows the Hinczow Lakes in the Tatra mountains. I like this painting because of the green
fields and blue water — I’d love to go there.
Japanese art is famous for landscape paintings. You can often see sea and sky, and mountains and trees. Ando
Hiroshigo worked in the nineteenth century and he’s one of Japan’s most famous artists. He printed and sold
thousands of beautiful prints in his lifetime. However, he was poor when he died.
Beatriz Milhazes is a Braziliann artist from Rio de Janeiro. She’s famous for her colorful paintings of flowers
and interesting shapes. She also makes sculptures with different types of natural and man-made materials.
Personally, I like all her works, though I prefer her paintings.
Vincent van Gogh, the famous Dutch artist, made eleven paintings of sunflowers. They were his favourite
paintings because he loved the color yellow. I prefer his other paintings, but many people love these ones.
Nowadays, you see them on cards, postcards, and T-shirts. Van Gogh died with no money, but in 1987, someone
bought the last sunflower painting for $49 million.

D. Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题）（12分）
John Wesley Powell
Every time I go whitewater rafting, I think of an explorer named John Wesley Powell who was an amazing
figure in the American West. Powell was fearless and thought nothing of hopping in a boat and rowing down an
unknown river. Along the way, he studied geology, plants, and wildlife, teaching himself much about the natural
world.
In 1860, Powell joined the army in the Civil War. He was injured and lost his right arm. When the wound was
cured, he went back into battle! In 1865, he retired as a major（上校）.
Powell took a teaching position as professor of geology even though he had never gone to college himself.
During this time, he began to develop a daring plan. He wanted to explore the Grand Canyon by rafting the
Colorado River. No one had done such a thing before.
In May of 1869, Powell set out with ten men on the Green River in Wyoming for a ten-month trip. Everyone
who saw them leave thought they would be done for.
No wonder! They were facing the unknown with every bend of the river. No one knew what rapids（急流）
lay ahead or how dangerous they’d be. But Powell refused to give up. He had courage and carefulness. He did what
he set out to do. He got a river’s-eye view of one of the most unbelievable natural formations（构造）on Earth.
And he lived to tell the tale.
88. Powell was afraid of hopping in a boat and rowing down a river, wasn’t he?
_ 89. What happened to Powell’s right arm when he was
in the army?
90. What does the underlined phrase “such a thing” in
Paragraph 3 refer to?
91. How many people set out on the Green River in
Wyoming for a ten-month trip?
92. Why did everyone who saw them leave think they
would be done for?
93. How does the writer feel about Powell? Please tell
your reason(s).VII. Writing（作文）（共20分）
94. Write at least 60 words about the topic “________left me a new impression.”（请以“________给我留下一个
新印象”为题，写一篇不少于 60 个词的短文，标点符号不占格。）
你身边有熟悉的同学、朋友、老师……，有一天可能因为某件事让你对她（他）改变了原有的看法。
请补全标题，并结合这个事例谈谈她（他）给你留下的这个新的印象。
