The title of this painting is Guernica. It was painted by the well-known Spanish artist, Pablo Picasso. Picasso painted this huge, breathtaking painting after the attack on the town of Guernica by the Nazis. It measures about 3.5 metres in height and almost 8 metres in width, and contains many different elements. In the centre of the painting, we can see a bull, a horse, a light bulb and a dead or wounded man lying on the ground. There have been endless debates about the meaning of these images, but Picasso insisted that it wasn’t up to the painter to define them. He said that people must interpret the images as they understand them. Through these images, I can see the tragedy of war, and feel the people’s fear as well as Picasso’s anger towards the fighting. In the painting, Picasso uses only three colours: black, white and grey. In my opinion, this makes its effect more powerful than using a full range of colours.
Let’s take a look at The Battlefield in Spring by Feng Zikai, who was one of the pioneers of modern Chinese cartoons. His illustrations deal with complex social issues in a simple and lively way, and are widely loved by Chinese people. This Chinese cartoon is painted in protest of Japanese aggression against China. In this cartoon, you can see a small section of a battlefield, made up of sandbags, an army cap and a wire fence. On one of the sandbags grows some grass leaves. The lifeless objects together with the grass leaves create a strong contrast. Unlike Guernica, I personally think this cartoon delivers quite an optimistic message. It shows that the destruction of war is only temporary, and that the power of life is everlasting. I can feel the strong spirit and hope in this cartoon. It is widely believed that the grass shows Feng Zikai’s encouragement to the Chinese people as well as his hope for peace. Through his war cartoons, he wanted to express his belief that Chinese people would win the war and bring peace back to the country.
Choose an art exhibition, or an artwork from an exhibition you like, and write about it using the words and expressions in this section.

一、动词不定式作表语
1.不定式作表语往往表示具体的、一次性的、将要发生的动作。通常主语是表示“目的，愿望，计划，梦想，需求”等的名词或what 引导的主语从句。注意：当主语部分含有实义动词do的某种形式时，作表语的不定式可以省略to。

The next step is to set the machine in motion.
下一步是开动这台机器。

现在分词和过去分词都可以作表语，现在分词作表语说明主语的特征，而过去分词作表语说明主语的状态。
The dog is frightening.这条狗是可怕的。
The dog is frightened.这条狗很害怕。
3.过去分词作表语和过去分词用于被动语态的区别
过去分词作表语说明主语所处的状态，不仅可以位于系动词be之后，还可根据需要用于其他系动词之后。过去分词用于被动语态说明主语所承受的动作，只能与助动词be(有时可能是get)构成被动结构，不宜用于其他动词之后。
