7. The following 4 famous paintings—from Jan van Eyck's portrait to Pablo Picasso's masterpiece—have stood the test of time.
The Amolfini Portrait
Jan van Eyck's The Amolfini Portrait, an oil painting on wood produced in 1434, in which a man and a woman hold hands with a window behind him and a bed behind her, is undoubtedly one of the masterpieces in the National Gallery, London. This painting is as visually interesting as it is famed. It is also an informative document on fifteenth-century society, through van Eyck's heavy use of symbolism—while husbands went out to engage in business, wives concerned themselves with domestic duties.
The Starry Night
Vincent van Gogh painted The Starry Night, oil on canvas(帆布), a moderately abstract landscape painting of an expressive night sky over a small hillside village, during his 12-month stay at the mental hospital near Saint-Remy-de-Provence, France between 1889 and 1890. When the Museum of Modem Art in New York City purchased the painting from a private collector in 1941, it was not well known, but it has since become one of van Gogh's most famous works.
The Harvesters
The Harvesters is an oil painting on wood completed by Pieter Bruegel the Elder in 1565. It depicts the harvest time which most commonly occurred within the months of August and September. Nicolaes Jonghelinck, a merchant banker and art collector from Antwerp, commissioned this painting. The painting has been at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City since 1919.
Guernica
Guernica, a large black-and-white oil painting, was painted by the Cubist Spanish painter, Pablo Picasso in 1937. The title "Guernica" refers to the city that was bombed by Nazi planes during the Spanish Civil War. The painting depicts the horrors of war and as a result, has come to be an anti-war symbol and a reminder of the tragedies of war. Today, the painting is housed at the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia in Madrid.
1. Which of the following paintings was produced earliest
A. Guernica. B. The Harvesters.
C. The Starry Night. D. The Amolfini Portrait.
2. Who created the painting describing the harvest seasons
A. Pieter Bruegel the Elder. B. Vincent van Gogh.
C. Jan van Eyck. D. Pablo Picasso.
3. What do we know about the painting The Starry Night
A. It was painted on wood in oils.
B. It described the painter's life in hospital.
C. It wasn't widely recognized before 1941.
D. It was given away to the museum by a collector.
8. The term "graffiti" is an Italian word meaning scratching or scribbling(乱涂). It entered the English language in the 1850s, specifically to describe the casual wall writing that experts found in Pompeii and the Roman tombs. Originally a term used only in ancient scribbling, the word has undergone considerable expansion of meaning in the past 75 years so that it now refers to any written message on a wall. Graffiti are characterized by their casualness; if they were more formal, they would be known as inscriptions(铭文).
The first piece of graffiti was found on one of the walls of the city Pompeii, which was destroyed by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. It was one of 1, 600 pieces of graffiti uncovered in Pompeii during a dig in the 19th century. Not surprisingly, there is much evidence of graffiti writing on the pyramid and temples of ancient Egypt. It is likely that ever since people have had walls and materials to scratch or paint with, they have been engaged in this simplest form of communication.
The writing of graffiti gives people a unique opportunity to achieve some kind of public audience. Thus short poems, declarations of love, political and revolutionary polemics(论战), and criticisms of institutions and people form a significant part of graffiti.
Apart from its usefulness in terms of self-expression, graffiti is also a valuable source for historians. There is always the possibility that historical events may be recorded by the presence of graffiti. Perhaps the most interesting example of this is the graffiti relating to the gladiatorial(角斗士的) contests held in Pompeii. Graffiti can also give us a unique view into the daily life and customs of a people, for its casual expression encourages the recording of details that more formal writing would tend to ignore.
In the late 1970s, graffiti became popular. A thought written on a toilet wall in Wolverhampton can now be read in Chicago or Adelaide. In its own way, this is probably the most fascinating example of McLuhan's concept of "the global village". We now have a worldwide toilet wall.
1. What can be inferred from the second paragraph
A. Graffiti has a long history.
B. Graffiti is an attractive form of art.
C. Graffiti made the ancient city Pompeii famous.
D. Graffiti was ancient Egyptian's main way of communication.
2. What does the third and fourth paragraphs mainly tell us
A. Graffiti's great value.
B. Graffiti's features.
C. Graffiti's way of expression.
D. Graffiti's connection with people's daily life.
3. Why is the graffiti relating to the gladiatorial contests mentioned in the passage
A. To prove graffiti can show people's customs.
B. To prove graffiti can provide valuable historical evidence.
C. To prove graffiti is mainly used to record important events.
D. To prove graffiti can provide more detailed information than formal writing.
4. What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph imply
A. The presence of graffiti makes the world closely connected.
B. The concept of "the global village" is famous worldwide.
C. Graffiti has become very popular all over the world.
D. People like using toilet walls to share their graffiti.

5.答案:Do you have any backups in case I cannot be there
6.答案:relied on
7.答案:1-3 DAC
解析:1.细节理解题。根据The Amolfini Portrait中的Jan van Eyck's The Amolfini Portrait...produced in 1434, The Starry Night中的“...France between 1889 and 1890.”, The Harvesters中的“…completed by Pieter Bruegel the Elder in 1565.”和Guernica中的“…was painted by the Cubist Spanish painter, Pablo Picasso in 1937.”可知, The Amolfini Portrait是最早创作的画。故选D。
2.细节理解题。根据The Harvesters中的“The Harvesters is an oil painting on wood completed by Pieter Bruegel the Elder in 1565.”可知,《收割者》是一幅木刻油画,由老彼得 勃鲁盖尔于1565年完成。所以老彼得 勃鲁盖尔画了这幅描绘丰收季节的画。故选A。
3.推理判断题。根据The Starry Night中的“When the Museum of Modern Art in New York City purchased the painting from a private collector in 1941, it was not well known, but it has since become one of van Gogh's most famous works.”可知,1941年,当纽约现代艺术博物馆从一位私人收藏家手中买下这幅画时,它并不为人所知,但后来却成了梵高最著名的作品之一。所以The Starry Night在1941年之前没有被广泛认可。故选C。
8.答案:1-4 AABC
解析:1.推理判断题。根据第二段第一句“The first piece of graffiti was found on one of the walls of the city Pompeii, which was destroyed by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD.(第一块涂鸦是在庞贝古城的一面墙上发现的,庞贝古城在公元79年的维苏威火山爆发中被摧毁)”可推知,涂鸦有很长的历史。故选A。
2.主旨大意题。根据第三段第一句“The writing of graffiti gives people a unique opportunity to achieve some kind of public audience.(涂鸦的书写给了人们一个独特的机会去获得某种公共受众)”以及第四段第一句“Apart from its usefulness in terms of self-expression, graffiti is also a valuable source for historians.(除了它在自我表达方面的用途,涂鸦对历史学家来说也是一个有价值的来源)”可知,涂鸦有巨大价值,故选A。
3.推理判断题。根据第四段中“There is always the possibility that historical events may be recorded by the presence of graffiti. Perhaps the most interesting example of this is the graffiti relating to the gladiatorial contests held in Pompeii.(历史事件总是有可能被涂鸦的存在所记录。也许最有趣的例子是关于庞贝角斗士比赛的涂鸦)”可知,与角斗相关的涂鸦在文章中被提及,是为了证明涂鸦可以提供有价值的历史证据。故选B。
4.推理判断题。根据最后一段中“In its own way, this is probably the most fascinating example of McLuhan's concept of 'the global village'. We now have a worldwide toilet wall.(……这可能是麦克卢汉“地球村”概念中最引人入胜的例子,我们现在有一个全球性的厕所墙)”可知,最后一段加下划线的句子暗示涂鸦已在世界各地非常流行。故选C。
