三、阅读理解
Van Gogh painted sunflowers for the first time in the summer of 1886. Two years later, his interest appeared again after he settled in Arles. After he had invited the French artist Paul Gauguin, whom he admired, to join his Studio of the South, he began painting sunflowers to brighten up the whitewashed walls of the yellow house he was living in, not far from the town's railway station.
Gauguin accepted Van Gogh's invitation. When he began dragging his heels (脚后跟), Van Gogh painted the last two of the four original Sunflowers for the modest bedroom where his guest would sleep following his arrival that autumn. "Van Gogh saw the Sunflowers for Gauguin's bedroom as a way of attracting his friend to come from Brittany," says Bailey.
According to Martin Gayford, "Gauguin was very surprised by the Sunflowers, which he repeatedly praised and asked for as a gift. Years later, Gauguin himself painted some sunflower pictures."
Van Gogh's sunflower stand for (代表) his relationship with Gauguin. "I think he painted them for the joy of it," says Jansen. "Van Gogh was at the height of his powers in the summer of 1888," ,explains Bailey. "He painted the Sunflowers quickly and with great energy and confidence." Van Gogh wrote to his brother Theo in late August, "I'm painting quickly now, which won't surprise you when it's a question of painting large sunflowers ."
Van Gogh recognized at once that he had created something important and that his sunflowers were so different. As he told Theo in January 1889, when other artists were known for painting other flowers, "The sunflower is mine." This, in fact, explains the reason for the popularity of Van Gogh's Sunflowers today.

四、阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Since most teenagers want to experience greater independence and selfhood, some will challenge you in order to test their power.

三、
答案:1-4.CBDD
解析:1.细节理解题。根据第一段中的"he began painting sunflowers to brighten up the whitewashed walls of the yellow house he was living in"可知,他画向日葵是为他所居住的黄色房屋的被刷成白色的墙壁增添色彩。因此凡·高1888年画向日葵是为了装饰他的房子。故选C。A项干扰性较强,文中介绍画向日葵是为了装饰房子,以欢迎友人的到来,而不是要送给他。
2.细节理解题。根据第二段中的"Gauguin accepted Van Gogh's invitation... following his arrival that autumn."可知,Gauguin接受了凡·高的邀请,凡·高把最后两幅向日葵画作放在了Gauguin的卧室里。故选B。
3.细节理解题。根据第三段中的"According to Martin Gayford, 'Gauguin was very surprised by the Sunflowers, which he repeatedly praised and asked for as a gift.'"可知,据Martin Gayford说,Gauguin对《向日葵》感到非常惊讶,他一再赞美并索要它作为礼物。故选D。
4.推理判断题。根据第五段内容可知,凡·高意识到自己创造了一些重要的东西,而他的《向日葵》是如此的与众不同。这解释了凡·高的《向日葵》今天流行的原因。因此我们可以推测凡·高意识到向日葵会让他出名。故选D。

④根据本段的主题 Pay attention to the leader可知,本段强调要关注领头的人。根据空前句“Many teachers know that when they face a group of difficult students in class, it's not necessary to deal with every student."可知,老师发现在面对一群难以对付的学生时,没有必要应对每一个人,主要抓住领头人就好了。G项“Usually, by dealing with the leader, the rest of the group will follow.”符合语境。故选G。
