Born in 1887 in a Russian-Jewish town, Chagall started painting at the age of 19. Disappointed with the colours of traditional Russian art, he loved to paint with strong blues, reds and yellows.
So in 1911, he moved to Paris, France, where artists from around the world were creating novel art forms and he acquired fresh ways of painting eagerly. He stayed true to his childhood memories. While others chose modern subjects, he painted scenes of fantasy based on an older, farmer-like way of life. Blue dogs, yellow skies and red trees were all creations of his imagination.
Chagall went through two world wars and personal sufferings. In 1941, because his family were Jewish, the Chagalls had to leave France to escape the Nazis during World WarⅡ. In 1944 came another blow. Chagall’s beloved wife Bella died of an illness. Despite the hardships, his passion for painting never faded. In the 1950s, he returned to France and continued to make his dreamlike paintings.
One day, during a walk in a village, he discovered a 700-year-old church (教堂), where he saw a stained-glass (彩色玻璃) window that contained a green horse. It looked as if Chagall might have created it himself. Here was a sure sign, he thought, that he should create his own stained-glass windows.
Then Chagall devoted all his energy and time to the work. As we know, many stained-glass windows are made of flat colours, but Chagall used various techniques to create the effects he wanted. He made flexible use of bright colours, putting light into the works. He painted images on glass, and then had them fired to high temperatures, making the lines and colours part of the glass.
Chagall created the stained-glass windows for churches and other buildings around the world until his death in 1985. He gave them as gifts to the world and often refused payment. Today, people are still amazed at how his stained-glass creations shine and change with the sun.
( )1.Why did Chagall choose to go to Paris
A.To learn new painting skills.
B.To publicize his new ideas about art.
C.To experience the colourful local life.
D.To participate in modern art exhibitions.
( )2.What led Chagall to design stained-glass windows
A.Desire to let in more sunlight.
B.Intention to improve the quality of glass.
C.Encouragement from some famous artists.
D.Inspiration from an ancient church window.
( )3.What does Paragraph 5 mainly talk about
A.Chagall’s working attitude.
B.The images Chagall created.
C.Chagall’s artistic experiences.
D.Chagall’s efforts to achieve desired effects.
( )4.Which of the following can best describe Chagall as an artist
A.Imaginative and honest.
B.Generous and easy-going.
C.Creative and strong-willed.
D.Energetic and traditional.

When you hear the beginning of your favourite song from the radio, suddenly your neck is covered in goose bumps.
It’s such a thing that a group of scientists call “skin excitement”—a feeling of cold caused not by a drop in temperature or a sudden scare, but by the sense of beauty. “Skin excitement” can come from a song, a painting, a moving movie scene, or even a beloved memory—pretty much anything that causes the giving out of pleasure-soaked dopamine in your brain. But it does not come for all of us.
Your favourite music uncovers a lot about your personality, and so does how you respond to that music. Studies suppose that as few as 55 percent of people experience “skin excitement” when listening to music. And if you count yourself among this group, the goose bumps on your skin aren’t the only giveaway—scientists can read it in your brain, too. In a new study published in the journal Social Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience, Harvard researchers performed brain scans on 10 students who said they reliably got cold when listening to music, and 10 students who didn’t. They found that the cold-prone brains may really be excited by stronger emotions.
Cold-prone brains are generally more likely to show stronger emotional intelligence than no-cold brains. Cold-prone minds tend to have unusual active imagination, reflect more deeply on their emotions, and appreciate nature and the beauty of music and art to a stronger degree than no-cold brains.
So, what type of music causes the chill It seems that the type is not so important; participants in the new study reported getting cold from songs of every kind. And any songs connected with a strong emotional memory of the listener can produce the most reliable results. For me, that’s the song Sailing to Philadelphia by Mark Knopfler, which I listened to as a kid in the car with my dad on the way to the summer camp.
( )5.What can we learn about “skin excitement” in the text
A.It helps to produce dopamine.
B.It is caused by the pain in the skin.
C.It can be experienced by every music listener.
D.It is the human body’s reaction to something nice.
( )6.What does the new study by Harvard researchers mainly find
A.The percentage of music lovers in students.
B.The solutions to the goose bumps on one’s skin.
C.The differences between cold-prone and no-cold brains.
D.The relationship between one’s music preference and personality.
( )7.What are people with cold-prone brains like
A.Beautiful and intelligent.
B.Emotional and dishonest.
C.Imaginative and sensitive.
D.Brave and strong-minded.
( )8.Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A.Responses to music vary among people
B.A feeling of cold is caused by horrible music
C.Your favourite music reveals your personality
D.Favourite music may bring forth goose bumps

A[2024·江苏扬州高一期中]
Born in 1887 in a Russian-Jewish town, Chagall started
painting at the age of 19. Disappointed with the colours of
traditional Russian art, he loved to paint with strong blues, reds
and yellows.
So in 1911, he moved to Paris, France, where artists from
around the world were creating novel art forms and he
acquired fresh ways of painting eagerly.

He stayed true to his childhood memories. While others chose
modern subjects, he painted scenes of fantasy based on an
older, farmer-like way of life. Blue dogs, yellow skies and red
trees were all creations of his imagination.
Chagall went through two world wars and personal
sufferings. In 1941, because his family were Jewish, the Chagalls
had to leave France to escape the Nazis during World WarⅡ.
In 1944 came another blow. Chagall's beloved wife Bella died of
an illness. Despite the hardships, his passion for painting never

faded. In the 1950s, he returned to France and continued to
make his dreamlike paintings.
One day, during a walk in a village, he discovered a 700-
year-old church (教堂), where he saw a stained-glass (彩色玻璃)
window that contained a green horse. It looked as if Chagall
might have created it himself. Here was a sure sign, he thought,
that he should create his own stained-glass windows.
Then Chagall devoted all his energy and time to the work.
As we know, many stained-glass windows are made of flat

colours, but Chagall used various techniques to create the
effects he wanted. He made flexible use of bright colours,
putting light into the works. He painted images on glass, and
then had them fired to high temperatures, making the lines and
colours part of the glass.
Chagall created the stained-glass windows for churches and
other buildings around the world until his death in 1985. He
gave them as gifts to the world and often refused payment.
Today, people are still amazed at how his stained-glass
creations shine and change with the sun.

When you hear the beginning of your favourite song from
the radio, suddenly your neck is covered in goose bumps.
It's such a thing that a group of scientists call “skin
excitement”—a feeling of cold caused not by a drop in
temperature or a sudden scare, but by the sense of beauty.
“Skin excitement” can come from a song, a painting, a moving
movie scene, or even a beloved memory—pretty much anything
that causes the giving out of pleasure-soaked dopamine in your
brain. But it does not come for all of us.

Your favourite music uncovers a lot about your personality，
and so does how you respond to that music. Studies suppose
that as few as 55 percent of people experience “skin excitement”
when listening to music. And if you count yourself among this
group, the goose bumps on your skin aren't the only
giveaway—scientists can read it in your brain, too. In a new
study published in the journal Social Cognitive and Affective
Neuroscience, Harvard researchers performed brain scans on 10
students who said they reliably got cold when listening to music,
1

and 10 students who didn't. They found that the cold-prone
brains may really be excited by stronger emotions.
Cold-prone brains are generally more likely to show
stronger emotional intelligence than no-cold brains. Cold-prone
minds tend to have unusual active imagination, reflect more
deeply on their emotions, and appreciate nature and the beauty
of music and art to a stronger degree than no-cold brains.
So, what type of music causes the chill It seems that the
type is not so important; participants in the new study reported

getting cold from songs of every kind. And any songs
connected with a strong emotional memory of the listener can
produce the most reliable results. For me, that's the song Sailing
to Philadelphia by Mark Knopfler, which I listened to as a kid in
the car with my dad on the way to the summer camp.
