七选五
Standing at the top of a staircase in the Louvre in Paris, the Nike, or the Winged Victory (胜利女神), looks
down over her admiring crowds. This statue is one of the most famous artworks of Greek art. 62 Later it
was brought to Paris and has been on display in the Louvre since 1866.The Nike consists of two parts: a large ship’s front part, and a standing statue with a total height of more than
eighteen feet. It looks like the Winged Victory has just flown down from the sky. 63 The wind blows her
dress across her body, gathering it in heavy folds, and streaming behind her. When viewers look at her, they can
almost feel the wind from the sea. 64
The statue, as it stands today in the Louvre, has been partly repaired. The right wing is a modern copy, but
the missing feet, arms, and head have not been recovered, giving viewers much to imagine. For instance, did the
Nike hold objects in her hands? In fact, people found her right hand in 1950, whose fingers are spread out. 65
She must have simply raised her right arm in greeting. Her head may have looked straight ahead, and viewers can
only guess about the features of her face.
66 As one of the few existing examples of original Greek sculpture, it will continue to attract
viewers, just as it undoubtedly did before.
A．This means that she cannot have held any object.
B．The Nike is in charge of victory in ancient Greek stories.
C．It was found on a Greek island in the Aegean sea in 1863.
D．This statue was made by artists who left no names in history.
E．It’s hard for them to believe such a lifelike statue is made of stone.
F．Landing on top of the ship, she celebrates the victory of an ancient battle.
G．Despite its incomplete survival, the Winged Victory is truly a masterpiece.

On the morning of our long- awaited graduation day, expectation filled the air as I together with my bestfriends Sarah, Maria and Grace gathered our bags, waited for the plane and set about our adventure to Barcelona.
For months, we had been dreaming about this moment, which marked the end of years of burying ourselves in hard
work and staying dedicated. It was three months ago in a history class that we were drawn to its rich history, from
the medieval streets of the Gothic Quarter to the groundbreaking historical architecture of Antoni Gaudi.
The happiness of burying ourselves in a new culture, filled with amazing and new cuisine and friendly
people, advanced our excitement. However, despite our enthusiasm, we couldn’t ignore the fact that none of us
spoke Spanish so fluently. On the day before setting off, we were still hesitant about whether to go or not. While
surfing on the Internet for advice, we found that most people travelling to Barcelona considered the locals friendly
and warm-hearted ones who are always willing to offer help. A sense of relief and expectation took the place of the
worries. We made up our minds to go there.
As we stepped off the plane, bathed in Spanish warm sunshine, our spirits rose high. We kicked off our
journey with a wander down Las Ramblas, enjoying the energy and talent of street performers. Down by the street,
the traditional buildings and precious cultural sites were a true feast for the eyes.
Yet, the days passing by, unforeseen challenges began to take place. On the last day of the journey, as we
were lost in the beauty of the amazing squares and traditional buildings, Sarah put forward that we could play the
game of cat and mouse to better explore the architectures. After arranging our roles, we ran towards different
directions to hide, while the cat, Sarah, began to count down to find and catch us.
