The Spanish sculptor Isaac Cordal sees the city as his playground. He specializes in miniature, a street art often representing a social commentary as a critical observation on capitalism, power and so on.
Cordal first models the sculptures in clay then reproduces them in cement(水泥)about 15cm in height.
“As a material, cement seems very symbolic because it is one of our most recognizable footprints against nature.” he says. “Today we have been too used to cement city habitat.”
For several years he's been working on the project, Cement Eclipses, referring to the state when a building covers the sun: “It's a critical reflection on the idea of progress.”
These tiny cement figures have appeared in cities across Europe, found sitting on top of bus shelters or drowning in the grassland of the big city. “The street became a perfect setting in which I could find enough landscapes for them. Due to their small size and color, they go really well into the urban environment. They even normally go unseen by passersby. I'm very interested in that moment of surprise when someone accidentally discovers them” he says.
“Nowadays there is a fear of not being seen in the public area, so everything is always big and bold. We become a product of this and do not focus in as much. I think it is good to pay attention to small details. My work is a reward for those who do and it allows us to understand and change the world we have created in a different angle.”Cordal says.
1. Which of the following best explains “miniature” underlined in Paragraph 1
A. Tiny sculpture. B. Small playground. C. Social comments. D. Critical observation.
2. What's Cordal's attitude toward cement city habitat
A. Indifferent. B. Critical. C. Neutral. D. Supportive.
3. What does Cordal intend to tell us in the last paragraph
A. Everything big in public is attractive.
B. Being small may be a fear in public.
C. We need to focus on the details of the products.
D. His work helps us to see the world differently.
4. What does the text mainly talk about
A. Cordal and his street art. B. Ways to be a sculptor.
C. Materials used for sculptures. D. Reflections on city progress.
B
Benjamin West, the father of American painting, showed his talent for art when he was only six years of age. But he did not know about brushes before a visitor told him he needed one. In those days, a brush was made from camels' hair. There were no camels nearby. Benjamin decided that cats' hair would work instead. He cut some fur from the family cat so as to make a brush.
The brush did not last long. Soon Benjamin needed more fur. Before long, the cat began to look ragged(蓬乱的). His father said that the cat must be sick. Benjamin was forced to admit what he had been doing.
The cat's lot was about to improve. That year, one of Benjamin's cousins, Mr. Pennington, came to visit. He was impressed with Benjamin's drawings. When he went home, he sent Benjamin a box of paint and some brushes. He also sent six engravings(版画) by an artist. These were the first pictures and first real paint and brushes Benjamin had ever seen. In 1747, when Benjamin was nine years old, Mr. Pennington returned for another visit. He was amazed at what Benjamin had done with his gift. He asked Benjamin's parents if he might take the boy back to Philadelphia for a visit.
In the city, Mr. Pennington gave Benjamin materials for creating oil paintings. The boy began a landscape(风景) painting. William Williams, a well-known painter, came to see him. Williams was impressed with Benjamin and gave him two classic books on painting to take home. The books were long and dull. Benjamin could read only a little, having been a poor student. But he later said, "Those two books were my companions by day, and under my pillow at night." While it was likely that he understood very little of the books, they were his introduction to classical paintings. The nine-year-old boy decided then that he would be an artist.
1. What is the text mainly about
A .Benjamin's visit to Philadelphia. B. The beginning of Benjamin's life as an artist.
C. The beginning of Benjamin's life as an artist. D. The friendship between Benjamin and Pennington.
2. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 suggest
A. The cat would be closely watched. B. The cat would get some medical care.
C. Benjamin would leave his home shortly. D. Benjamin would have real brushes soon.
3. What did Pennington do to help Benjamin develop his talent
A. He took him to see painting exhibitions. B. He provided him with painting materials.
C. He sent him to a school in Philadelphia. D. He taught him how to make engravings.
4. Williams' two books helped Benjamin to _____.
A .master the use of paints B. appreciate landscape paintings
C. get to know other painters D. make up his mind to be a painter
