A
When Frida Kahlo's paintings were on show in London, a poet described her paintings as “a ribbon(丝带) around a bomb”. Such comments seem to suggest Kahlo had a big influence on the art world of her time. Sadly, she is actually a much bigger name today than she was during her time.
Born in 1907 in a village near Mexico City, Kahlo suffered from polio(小儿麻痹症) at the age of seven. Her spine(脊柱) become bent as she grew older. Then, in 1925, her back was broken in several places in a school-bus accident. Throughout the rest of her life, the artist had many operations, but noting was able to cure the terrible pain in her back. However, the accident had an unexpected side effect. While lying in her bed recovering, Kahlo taught herself to paint.
In 1929, she got married to Diego Rivera, another famous Mexican artist. Rivera's strong influence on Kahlo's style can be seen in her early works, but her later works from the 1940s, known today as her best works, show less influence from her husband.
Unfortunately, her works did not attract much attention in the 1930s and 1940s, even in her home country. Her first one-woman show in Mexico was not held until 1953. For more than a decade after her death in 1954, Kahlo's works remained largely unnoticed by the world, but in the 1970s her works began to gain international fame at last.
106. What does the phrase “a much bigger name” in paragraph 1 most nearly mean?
A. a far better artist B. a far more gifted artist
C. a much stronger person D. a much more famous person
107. The terrible pain Kahlo suffered was caused by ?.
A. polio B. her bent spine
C. back injuries D. the operations she had
108. Kahlo's style had become increasingly independent since the ?.
A. 1930s B. 1940s C. 1950s D. 1970s
109. What is author's attitude toward Kahlo?
A. Devotion. B. Sympathy.
C. Worry. D. Encouragement.
B
About twenty years ago, I had the pleasure of teaching a young woman named Audrey. Not only was she good at math and science, but she also had a gift for art. She could draw and paint beautifully. When Audrey left university, she got two degrees(学位), one in fine arts and one in chemistry. Not too many people do well in two such different areas of study and I was quite impressed.
Just before she left high school, Audrey gave me a wonderful gift. It was a color painting of a mother and her baby. Tears fell from the mother's eyes as she looked lovingly at her child. Under the painting, Audrey wrote these words, "The love of Mother through me touches others." What a beautiful gift from such a talented student. I had that piece of art framed and hung in my office.
Years passed with many moves from one office to another and I lost the painting. Last year, after about eight years of not knowing where the painting was, I received a phone call from a teacher in my school. She said she had something of mine. It was the picture Audrey had painted for me 18 years ago. She discovered my gift when she was cleaning out a storage room.
She told me that she knew Audrey's family and her very well. When Audrey was four years old, she was diagnosed with dysnusia(智力缺陷) and her father left her mother and her. At that time, nobody knew she would be a talent. It was her mother that brought her up with much difficulty.
I am struck by what the teacher said. To others it is just a painting, but to me it shows how a mother's love made a great difference to a talented young girl.
110. Just before Audrey left high school, she ?.
A. told the writer the story of her mother
B. gave the writer a painting as a gift
C. showed the writer her special gift for art
D. told the writer about her unhappy childhood
111. Why did the writer lose the painting?
A. Because she often changed offices.
B. Because she didn't put it in a suitable place.
C. Because someone took it away without telling her.
D. Because she went to another school without taking it.
112. In the writer's opinion, ?.
A. not all parents love their children
B. every child has his/her own gift for something
C. paintings drawn by children can be worth a lot of money
D. it was the mother's love that encouraged Audrey's talent
C
Mara Chagall
Marc Chagall was born on July 7, 1887 in Vitebsk, Russia. In 1932 he moved to France. His painting styles are Expressionism and Cubism(立体主义). In his paintings, he often painted violinists because he played the violin, so did his uncle. He was also famous for his paintings of Russian-Jewish villages.
Salvador Dali
Salvador Dali was born in Spain in 1904. When he was a child, he showed strange behavior and often interrupted his class in school. As he got older, he started to paint pictures that came from his dreams. His dreams and his paintings were scary and unreal. Salvador Dali drew everyday items, but changed them in odd ways. For example, one of his paintings is of melting clocks.
Leonardo Da Vinci
In 1452, Leonardo Da Vinci was born in Italia. He lived in the Renaissance, when everyone was interested in art. Even if Da Vinci was a great artist, he became famous because of all the other things he could do. He was a sculptor, a scientist, an inventor, a musician, and a mathematician. When he was 20, he helped his teacher finish a painting called The Baptism of Christ. When he was 30, he moved to Milan where he painted most of his pictures. Da Vinci's paintings were done in the Realist style.
Paul Klee
Paul Klee was born in Switzerland in 1887. He loved cats. He had at least 8,926 works of art. In these works of art, he used simple lines and strong colors. He also used simple shapes to make important parts of the painting. Klee painted in many styles, but a lot of them were in the Primitive and Surrealist(超现实主义) styles.
113. Why did Mara Chagall often paint violinists?
A. Because his uncle encouraged him to do so.

C. strong colors are used in every Paul Klee's painting
D. Paul Klee's paintings are mostly from simple shapes
D
German artist HA Schult is an unusual artist who uses trash to make sculptures(雕塑). "We are living in the time of garbage(垃圾)," says Schult. "I created a thousand sculptures of garbage. They are a mirror of ourselves." Here, Schult was talking about his 1,000 trash sculptures in the form of humans. He first exhibited them in 1996 in the western German state of North Rhine-Westphalia.
"They are social sculptures," he explains. "They are not only sculptures for the eyes. They are sculptures to spread the idea that we live in a time of garbage." So far, Schult's social sculptures have been on show in Paris, in Moscow's Red Square, on the Great Wall of China, and in the desert next to the Giza Pyramids near Cairo.
HA Schult's work is unforgettable. Although his work has had a big influence on the art world, Schult remains humble(谦虚的) about his creations: "Artists have to learn every time. We are not important. All that is important is the time in which we are living."
Trash art has been around for years. But it seems that only the popular artists are regarded as true artists when working with trash. Why can't common people be considered artists when they use the same things and change them into some form of personal art? Maybe it's because we all have our own preset(预先设置的) ideas of what art is and isn't, or who artists are or should be.
You can be an artist like Schult if you try. Look at used metal cans. What might be done with them? Imagine them in any number of new uses, or imagine them simply as an art form. What about boxes or clothing? Boxes can usually serve as new storage containers and houses for pets. And clothing? Imagine taking old clothes and turning them into hats or hanging organizers(悬挂收纳盒).
117. What do we know about Schult's sculptures?
A. They were first shown in Paris, France.
B. They show people the problem of trash.
C. They are mainly about social relationship.
D. They are designed in the shape of garbage.
118. Which of the following can best describe HA Schult?
A. Careful. B. Humorous.
C. Not proud. D. Not confident.
119. According to Paragraph 4, the author might agree that ?.
A. trash art is not a real art form
B. it is difficult to be a true artist
C. the ordinary can also be trash artists
D. preset ideas are important to artists
120. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Could You Be a Trash Artist?
B. What Are Social Sculptures?
C. Do You Know About Trash Art?
D. How Can We Deal with Used Cans?

M: ⑩ I've thought about it but I don't know what kind I should do. What about you?
W: Well, some people teach homeless children or nurse old people, but B11 I often help clean up the parks, and sometimes work in an animal hospital.
M: Don't you find it a little boring?
W: No. In fact, I even like cleaning.
M: How much time do you spend on it? Some people I know do it one or two days a week.
W: B12 I used to spend ten hours on it every week, but I don't do it that much now, about half as much.
M: Could I do volunteer work with you next week?
W: Of course.

W: B13 Cold day, isn't it ?
M: Yeah. I remember that you are not into modern art.
W: That's right. B14 I don't understand it and I don't like it.
M: That's unfair. If you don't understand it, how can you say that you don't like it?
W: Perhaps I am a little conservative. I really can't keep pace with so many changes nowadays. So, B14 I just can't imagine that the modern artist is really serious.
M: The modern artist is different from traditional artist in his works.
W: Are you trying to tell me these strange paintings mean anything? A child could paint better than that.
M: B15 I guess there's no point in discussing the matter any further. You have your opinion and I have mine.
W: I agree there are two sides to everything, but this time I see only one of them.
M: Well, I'm trying to explain that the modern artist is trying to express his personal feelings about the world around him.
W: B16 Then he should keep his feelings to himself. I will never watch a modern art exhibition.

M: Yes, I know. I decided to work during the evening rush hour. B18 You see, there are always lots of people coming out of work, as well as passengers at the railway station.
W: And so your dinner is cold. Why do you work so hard?
M: I just start, and then I can't stop.
W: You can stop anytime. You don't need to keep on working at all.
M: And then what would I do?
W: B19 We could move to Florida.
M: Florida? B20 Is it any better than New York ?
W: B20 Its summer is not so hot and rainy at least.
M: And what would we do there?
W: We can do many things. A lot of our friends have moved to Florida. We know a lot of people there.

W: Bye. Take care.
