【翻译】同样十分重要的(看点)是一组近百件商代(公元前1600年—公元前1046年)青铜器藏品。
【句式剖析】
本句是完全倒装句式。
◇句式解读
(1)当表语是分词、副词、形容词、介词短语,而主语比较长且主语是名词时,为了保持句子平衡或强调表语,常把表语置于句首,引起句子完全倒装。句型结构为“分词/副词/形容词/介词短语+be+主语”。
(2)表示处所、时间、方位等的副词如 here, there, now, then, up, down, in, out, off 等或介词(短语)放在句首,而主语是名词,且谓语动词是be, lie, sit, stand, come, go, exist, live, rush等不及物动词时,句子用完全倒装。
【归纳拓展】
(3)there be句型也属于一种完全倒装。该句型中的be可以替换成表示“存在”的动词,如live, exist, lie, stand, seem, rise, remain, happen, come, go等。句型结构为“there+存在类动词+主语”。
注意:完全倒装句的主语通常是名词。如果句子的主语为代词,只将副词或介词短语提前,而句子的主语和谓语要用陈述语序。
There she began to model in clay.
她开始在那儿用黏土做模型。
Then came the time when I had to say goodbye to my family.

【答案】(3)is sitting a young man
2.(P8)Some of the items on display are thought to have come from the collection of Emperor Qianlong (1711-1799),a great admirer of Shang Dynasty bronze.
【翻译】部分展品被认为是来自对商朝青铜器大为赞赏的乾隆皇帝(1711-1799)的收藏品。
【句式剖析】
“are thought to have come from”是由be thought to have done sth(被认为已经做了某事)变化而来。
(1)be thought to意为“被认为……”;动词不定式根据情况可用一般式、进行式或完成式,可以转换为“It is thought that …”结构。
(2)下面句型可以转换为“Sb+be+动词-ed形式+to do …”结构:
It is said that … 据说……
It is believed that … 人们相信……
【归纳拓展】
It is reported that … 据报道……
It is considered that … 大家认为……
It is supposed that … 据推测……
It is said that the new mayor will come into power next month.

3.(P8)Even though Buddhism entered China much earlier, it did not really begin to show expansion until the seventh century.
【翻译】虽然佛教传入中国的时间早得多,但它直到公元七世纪才真正开始扩张。
【句式剖析】
本句中的“not…until…”意为“直到……才……”。
(1)not… until/till… 意为“直到……才……”,该句型中主句的谓语动词通常为非延续性动词,强调主句所表示的动作或状态一直到until/till所表示的时间才发生。
(2)until/till用于肯定句中,主句的谓语动词通常为延续性动词,表示这一动作或状态一直延续到until/till所表示的时间为止。
【归纳拓展】
(3)not until…的强调句型为:It is/was not until…that…
He didn’t consider having a holiday abroad until he retired from teaching three years ago.
=It was not until he retired from teaching three years ago that heconsidered having a holiday abroad.
=Not until he retired from teaching three years ago did he consider having a holiday abroad.

4.(P8)Chinese sculpture thus found itself highly influenced by Buddhist art brought from India and Central Asia through the Silk Road.
【翻译】因此,中国雕塑深受通过丝绸之路带来的印度和中亚佛教艺术的影响。
【句式剖析】
“found itself highly influenced”是“find+宾语+宾语补足语”结构。
find的复合宾语结构如下:
(1)“find+宾语+动词的-ed形式/动词的-ing形式”中,动词的-ing形式表示主动、进行的动作;而动词的-ed形式则表示被动、完成的动作。
(2)在find的复合宾语结构中,也可用形容词、介词短语作宾语补足语。
(3)在“find+it+形容词/名词+to do”中,it是形式宾语,to do是真正的宾语。
【归纳拓展】
We turned around and found a little girl struggling in the lake, crying for help.
我们转过身来时发现一个小女孩在湖中挣扎,大声呼救。

Ⅰ.阅读理解
What is the place of art in a culture of inattention Recent visitors to the Louvre report, that tourists can now spend only a minute in front of the Mona Lisa before being asked to move on.Much of that time, for some of them, is spent taking photographs not even of the painting but of themselves with the painting in the background.
One view is that we have made tourism and gallery-going so easy that we have made it effectively impossible to appreciate what we’ve travelled to see. In this society, experience becomes goods like any other. There are queues to climb Everest as well as to see famous paintings. Thus, leisure is considered as hard labour rather than relaxation.
In the rapidly developing society, what gets lost is the quality of looking. Consider an extreme example, the late philosopher Richard Wollheim. When he visited the Louvre he could spend as much as four hours sitting before a painting. The first hour, he claimed, was necessary for incorrect impression to be removed. It was only then that the picture would begin to disclose itself. This seems unthinkable today, but it is still possible to organise. Even in the busiest museums there are many rooms and many pictures worth hours of contemplation(沉思)which the crowds largely ignore.
Marcel Proust, another lover of the Louvre, wrote: “It is only through art that we can escape from ourselves and know how another person sees a universe which is not the same as our own and whose landscapes would otherwise have remained as unknown as any there may be on the moon.” If any art remains worth seeing, it must lead us to such escapes. But a minute in front of a painting in a hurried, harried(烦扰) crowd won’t do that.
1.Why does the author mention the example in Louvre in Paragraph 1
A.To express his concern about Louvre.
B.To report the popularity of Mona Lisa.
C.To introduce a good place to take photos.
D.To show a disappointing current situation.
2.Which of the following will Richard Wollheim agree
A.People need to clear up their misunderstanding of paintings.
B.People have to stay at least 4 hours when appreciating paintings.
C.It is impossible for modern people to admire paintings attentively.
D.The longer one admires the paintings, the more unlikely he loves them.
3.What role does art play in our life according to Marcel Proust
A.Art is of help for us to accept ourselves better.
B.Art makes our life more colourful and meaningful.
C.Art allows us to know the world in the view of others.
D.Art pushes us away from ourselves and explores the moon.
4.Which is the best title of the passage
A.Into Art Attentively
B.Escape from Ourselves
C.Beyond Art Completely
D.Go to the Museums Often
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。在快速发展的社会中,游客们不能集中注意力很好地欣赏艺术品,而艺术是需要专心欣赏的。
1.D 推理判断题。通读第一段内容可知,作者提及卢浮宫的例子是为了展示艺术欣赏令人失望的现状。故选D项。
2.A 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The first hour, he claimed, was necessary for incorrect impression to be removed.”可知,Richard Wollheim声称第一个小时是消除对艺术作品错误印象所必需的,即他可能会赞同人们需要消除对绘画的误解。故选A项。
3.C 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“It is only through art that we can escape from ourselves and know how another person sees a universe which is not the same as our own”可知,Marcel Proust 认为艺术能够让我们在自己的生活中从别人的角度去认识世界。故选C项。
4.A 标题推测题。通读全文内容,尤其是第一段可知,本文主要讲述在快速发展的社会中,游客们不能集中注意力很好地欣赏艺术品,而艺术是需要专心欣赏的。A项“用心投入艺术”最适合作标题。故选A项。

Art is for everyone and it exists everywhere.When it comes to appreciating an art painting, there is no right or wrong way.__1__
·Know the artist.
To know the artist is the first step towards appreciating an art painting.__2__ Once you get familiar with the paintings from a particular artist, you will start relating to his unique style.
·__3__
This is really tough.There are different styles and types of art mediums, realism, surrealism, and impressionism, to name but a few.So for beginners, it’s advisable to keep things simple.Try to understand if the art you see is a watercolour, oil painting or acrylics(丙烯画) or sketch on paper.You also need to figure out the styles of the work—figurative(形象的) or abstract.
·Try and find a meaning.
To read between lines and colours and understand what the artist means can be very difficult.__4__ So here’s a simple guide.Figurative paintings are easy because they are an honest description of emotions on the canvas(画布).Still, it doesn’t mean your understanding is the same as the artist’s.Abstracts attempt to create magic with shapes, lines and colours and their meaning is difficult for everyone who sees it.
·Search for emotions.
Not every work of art will catch your eyes or emotions at first sight.__5__ Explore the art work with your eyes.
Once you are aware of these things, you will be able to break the ice with art.
A.Discover your taste and styles.
B.Know the type of art and medium used.
C.Some of these art works will take time to reach you.
D.You just might find that art changes the way you see the world.
E.Learning something about the artist adds to the appreciation of art.
F.A simple art painting might be understood otherwise for different people.
G.The following ideas may help you join in the conversation between you and the artist.
【语篇解读】本文是一篇应用文。作者从了解艺术家、了解艺术种类、发现其所含意义以及寻找情感四个方面讲述了欣赏艺术画作的方法。
1.G 根据空格前的“When it comes to appreciating an art painting, there is no right or wrong way.” 可知,欣赏艺术画作没有什么对或错的方式。再结合下文各段的小标题可知,G项“下面的想法可以帮助你加入到你与艺术家之间的对话中。”承上启下,符合语境。故选G项。
2.E 空格前的“To know the artist is the first step…”提到了解艺术家是欣赏其艺术画作的第一步;空格后的“Once you get familiar with the paintings…unique style.”提到一旦你熟悉了来自某位特定艺术家的绘画,你就会开始联系其独特的艺术风格。E项“了解艺术家有助于提高对艺术的欣赏。”承上启下,符合语境。故选E项。

4.F 根据空格前的“To read between lines and colours and understand what the artist means can be very difficult.”可知,通过阅读线条和颜色来理解艺术家的心思很难。F项“不同的人对一幅简单的艺术画可能有不同的理解。”承接上文,符合语境。故选F项。
5.C 根据空格前的“Not every work of art will catch your eyes or emotions at first sight.”可知,并非每一件艺术品都能让你第一眼便被吸引或激起你的情感。C项“理解某些艺术品会需要一些时间。”承接上文,符合语境。故选C项。

Ⅰ.阅读理解
When Millet was a boy, he worked on his needy father’s farm.At the rest hour in the fields the other workers would all take naps,but young Millet would spend time drawing.Finally, the village where he lived gave him a little money to Paris to study art.
When Millet reached Paris,he had a tough time.Fortunately, when he was almost starving, someone bought one of his peasant paintings, which enabled his family to leave for Barbizon.
Millet’s pictures of peasants at work were painted in a unique way.The painter would go out to the farms to watch them carefully—digging,hoeing,spreading manure,sawing wood,or sowing grain.Then he would come home and paint what he had seen.
So astonishingly accurate was his memory that he could paint at home without models and get all the movements of his figures right.When he did need a figure to go by, he would ask his wife to pose for him.
One of his noted artworks is called The Sower,which shows a man seeding.He reaches into his bag for seed and then swings backward to scatter the seed, and with each swing of his hand the sower strides forward.
In Millet’s picture the sower has been working hard, but his swinging step and arm still move smoothly, like a machine.Only the man’s head reveals his great tiredness.
Another masterpiece is called The Gleaners.A gleaner is someone picking up the leftover in the field after the wheat harvest.When farmers near Barbizon are extremely badly-off,even the little the gleaners can find is a help.You can see from Millet’s picture what back-breaking work gleaning must be.
1.What do we know about Millet
A.His wife supported him to be a painter.
B.He was keen on painting as a kid.
C.He spent his whole life in Barbizon.
D.He was brought up in Paris.
2.How did Millet paint the labouring farmers
A.Asking models for help.
B.Imagining figures in the field.
C.Remembering what he had observed.
D.Recalling the days on his father’s farm.
3.What do Millet’s works convey
A.The farmers’ hardships.
B.The scene of farming.
C.His love for the village.
D.His anxiety about the farmers.
4.Which is the text most likely to be taken from
A.A short-story collection.
B.A personal diary.
C.A magazine of art.
D.A science magazine.
【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了Millet从小就喜欢画画,他通过记住他所观察到的来描绘农民劳动时的场景。其代表作有《播种者》和《拾穗者》。
1.B 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“but young Millet would spend time drawing”可知,Millet从小就喜欢画画。故选B项。
2.C 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The painter would go out to the farms to watch them carefully…and paint what he had seen.”可知,Millet通过记住他所观察到的来描绘劳动的农民。故选C项。
3.A 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“In Millet’s picture the sower has been working hard…”和最后一段中的“You can see from Millet’s picture what back-breaking work gleaning must be.”可知,Millet的作品传达了农民的艰辛。故选A项。
4.C 推理判断题。通读全文内容,尤其倒数第二段中的“One of his noted artworks is called The Sower”和最后一段中的“Another masterpiece is called The Gleaners.”可推知,本文可能出自一本艺术杂志。故选C项。

Ⅰ.七选五
Leonardo da Vinci and Nature
In the modern world, art and science are two very separate activities, but in Leonardo’s time they were closely connected. Science meant mathematics and medical studies.
__1__ Mathematics included practical work like surveying land for making maps as well as measuring the movements of the stars in the sky.An artist might need to measure the different parts of the body.He could also use mathematics to place things in relationship to each other in a drawing or painting so the scene looked correct.__2__
Mathematics was also connected to music because musical sounds have a fixed relationship with each other that can be described in numbers.__3__ More than this, though, Leonardo believed that numbers were a part of all things in the world, including music, and he said that without them nothing could be done.
“Nature has kindly given us things everywhere to copy,” wrote Leonardo.In all his activities, Leonardo was trying to discover the rules that control nature.In his search for those rules, he looked very carefully at a lot of examples and details.Actual experience was more important to him than opinion, and he worked from facts to ideas.__4__ His purpose was to examine the world so he could copy it in beautiful paintings and sculptures.He also wanted to learn from the clever solutions of nature.
__5__ His quick little sketches, often done while wandering outside, helped him to catch a movement or a shape.More careful drawings would be done at a desk with a pen and a ruler.In July 2001, a small drawing by Leonardo was sold for $12 million.It was the most expensive drawing in the world.
A.Leonardo was always drawing.
B.How could these be connected with art
C.Leonardo’s ideas were vastly ahead of his time.
D.Mathematicians and doctors worked to discover the unknown.
E.Above all, Leonardo wanted to understand how and why things worked.
F.You will see a good example of such positioning in the painting The Last Supper.
G.Leonardo himself was a very good musician and liked to play an instrument and sing.
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。在现代世界,艺术和科学是两个非常独立的活动,但在Leonardo的时代,它们是紧密联系在一起的。文章主要介绍了Leonardo在数学和艺术方面的见解。
1.B 根据上文中的“In the modern world…science meant mathematics and medical studies.”可知,在现代世界,艺术和科学是两个非常独立的活动,但在Leonardo的时代,它们是紧密联系在一起的。科学意味着数学和医学研究。B项“科学与艺术有什么联系?”承接上文,符合语境。故选B项。
2.F 根据上文中的“He could also use mathematics…so the scene looked correct.” 可知,他还可以用数学根据事物之间的关系把它们画在一幅素描画或油画中,使场景看起来是正确的。F项“你会在《最后的晚餐》这幅画里看到一个好的位置安排的例子。”承接上文,符合语境。故选F项。
3.G 根据下文中的“More than this, though, Leonardo believed that…nothing could be done.”可知,Leonardo相信数字是世界上一切事物的一部分,包括音乐。G项“Leonardo本人是一个非常好的音乐家,喜欢演奏乐器和唱歌。”引出下文,符合语境。故选G项。
4.E 上文中的“Actual experience…worked from facts to ideas.”提到,对他来说,实践经验比观点更重要。他通过事实得出观点;下文中的“His purpose was to examine the world so he could copy it in beautiful paintings and sculptures.”提到他的目的是研究世界,这样他就可以在美丽的绘画和雕塑中复制它。E项“最重要的是,Leonardo想要理解事物是如何运作的,以及为什么这样运作。”承上启下,符合语境。故选E项。
5.A 根据下文中的“His quick little sketches…catch a movement or a shape.”可知,他经常在外面闲逛的时候画一些素描,帮助自己捕捉一个动作或形状。A项“Leonardo总是在画画。”引出下文,符合语境。故选A项。
Ⅱ.语法填空

In conclusion, this book is a well-deserved 10.________ (celebrate) of the artist and his spirit of creation.
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了《渴望生活:梵高传》这本传记小说。
1.provides 考查动词的时态和主谓一致。分析句子结构可知,空格处作谓语,且描述客观事实,应用一般现在时。主语this work of historical fiction表单数,动词应用第三人称单数形式。故填provides。
2.imaginative 考查形容词。此处修饰名词storytelling,应用形容词imaginative(富有想象力的)作定语。故填imaginative。
3.perfectly 考查副词。此处修饰动词shows,应用副词作状语。故填perfectly。

5.to add 考查动词不定式。分析句子结构可知,空格处所在句子已有谓语“would set aside”,故用非谓语动词形式。再结合语境可知,此处表示“为了给他的画增添颜色”,应用动词不定式作目的状语。故填to add。
6.an 考查冠词。根据语境可知,此处泛指一个不正常的人,应用不定冠词。abnormal以元音音素开头。故填an。
7.in 考查介词。此处是固定短语lie in,意为“在于”。故填in。
8.where 考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,空格处引导定语从句,其先行词environment在从句中作状语,应用关系副词where。故填where。
9.offering 考查动词的-ing形式。分析句子结构可知,空格处所在句子已有谓语mixes,故用非谓语动词形式。动词offer与其逻辑主语Stone为主谓关系,应用动词的-ing形式。故填offering。
