2/21．Art
is
a
lie
that
makes
us
realize
the
truth.
—Picasso
艺术是揭示真理的谎言。
——毕加索
2．A
good
painting
is
like
good
cooking，it
can
be
tasted，but
not
explained.
—Vlaminck
好画犹如佳肴，只可意会，不可言传。
——弗拉曼克
3．Art
is
the
right
hand
of
nature.The
latter
only
gave
us
being，but
the
former
made
us
men.
—Schiller
艺术是自然的并存。后者赋予我们生命，但前者丰富了我们的人生。
——席勒
Nature
contains
the
elements，in
colour
and
form，of
all
pictures，as
the
keyboard
contains
the
notes
of
all
music.
But
the
artist
is
born
to
pick，and
choose，and
group
with
science，these
elements，that
the
result
may
be
beautiful—as
the
musician
gathers
his
notes，and
forms
his
chords，until
he
brings
forth
from
chaos
glorious
harmony.
To
say
to
the
painter，that
nature
is
to
be
taken
as
she
is，is
to
say
to
the
player，that
he
may
sit
on
the
piano.
The
dignity
of
the
snow?capped
mountain
is
lost
in
distinctness，but
the
joy
of
the
tourist
is
to
recognize
the
traveller
on
the
top.The
desire
to
see，for
the
sake
of
seeing，is，with
the
mass，alone
the
one
to
be
gratified，hence
the
delight
in
detail.
Chinese
realistic
painting
is
often
very
colourful
and
with
a
lot
of
details，it
involves
first
drawing
a
basic
outline
of
the
object
with
a
thin
brush
in
black
and
then
meticulously(一丝不苟地)
colouring
in
the
details
with
specialized
brushes.
A
famous
example
of
this
style
is
the
painting
from
the
Tang
Dynasty
by
the
artist
Zhang
Xuan
called
“Court
Ladies
Preparing
Newly
Woven
Silk”．It
depicts
an
annual
celebration
where
the
court
ladies
would
prepare
silk，therefore
opening
a
window
to
the
past.See
how
all
the
court
ladies
are
performing
different
tasks，and
how
each
has
been
painted
to
express
their
individual
characters.
Unlike
realistic
painting，ink?wash
painting
is
based
on
one
colour，black
calligraphy
ink.These
paintings
are
stunning
in
that
details
are
added
by
having
different
shades
of
black.
A
great
example
of
ink?wash
technique
done
by
Chen
Rong
is
“Nine
Dragons”，which
plays
on
the
Chinese
mythology
of
the
nine
sons
of
the
dragon
king，the
painting
style

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
In
about
1450，European
scholars
became
more
interested
in
studying
the
world
around
them.Their
art
became
truer
to
life.They
began
to
explore
new
lands.The
new
age
in
Europe
was
eventually
called
“the
Renaissance”．Renaissance
is
a
French
word
that
means
“rebirth”．Historians
consider
the
Renaissance
to
be
the
beginning
of
modern
history.
The
Renaissance
began
in
northern
Italy
and
then
spread
through
Europe.Italian
cities
such
as
Naples，Genoa，and
Venice
became
centres
of
trade
between
Europe
and
the
Middle
East.Arab
scholars
preserved
the
writings
of
the
ancient
Greeks
in
their
libraries.When
the
Italian
cities
traded
with
the
Arabs，ideas
were
exchanged
along
with
goods.These
ideas，preserved
from
the
ancient
past，served
as
the
basis
of
the
Renaissance.When
the
Byzantine
Empire
fell
to
Muslim
Turks
in
1453，many
Christian
scholars
left
Greece
for
Italy.
The
Renaissance
was
much
more
than
simply
studying
the
works
of
ancient
scholars.It
influenced
painting，sculpture
and
architecture.Paintings
became
more
realistic
and
focused
less
often
on
religious
topics.Rich
families
became
patrons
and
commissioned
great
art.Artists
advanced
Renaissance
style
of
showing
nature
and
depicting
the
feelings
of
people.In
Britain，there
was
a
flowering
in
literature
and
drama
that
included
the
plays
of
William
Shakespeare.
【语篇解读】 文章介绍了文艺复兴时期的相关情况。
1．The
underlined
part
in
the
first
paragraph
refers
to
________．
A．from
about
1450
to
1453
B．before
about
1450
C．from
about
1450
to
now
D．from
the
15th
century
to
the
16th
century
D [推理判断题。这个“新时期”指的就是文艺复兴时期，由文中第一句可知，文艺复兴大约于1450年开始，故B项不对；其结束时间文中并未明确提到，但由历史知识可知，它既不是止于1453年，更不是延续至今，而是大约在16世纪，故应选D项。]
2．Which
of
the
following
is
TRUE
according
to
the
second
paragraph?
A．The
Renaissance
began
in
Asia.
B．The
Renaissance
is
one
of
the
biggest
cities
in
Italy.
C．The
Renaissance
began
in
Italy
and
was
developed
in
Britain.
D．The
Renaissance
started
in
the
northern
part
of
Italy
and
then
appeared
in
Europe.
D [推理判断题。由文中第二段首句“The
Renaissance
began
in
northern
Italy
and
then
spread
through
Europe.”可知，文艺复兴开始于意大利北部，然后扩散到整个欧洲。]
3．Why
did
many
Christian
scholars
in
Greece
go
to
Italy?
A．Because
Italy
was
the
centre
of
trade.
B．Because
the
Byzantine
Empire
fell
to
Muslim
Turks
in
1453.
C．Because
Italy
was
between
Europe
and
the
Middle
East.
D．Because
they
wanted
to
trade
with
the
Italians.
B [细节理解题。由文中第二段最后一句“When
the
Byzantine
Empire
fell
to
Muslim
Turks
in
1453，many
Christian
scholars
left
Greece
for
Italy.”可知，当1453年拜占庭帝国落入穆斯林土耳其人手中时，很多天主教学者离开希腊来到意大利。]

The
entire
tech
world
is
debating
the
consequences
of
artificial
intelligence
and
the
part
AI
is
going
to
play
in
shaping
our
future.While
we
might
think
that
artificial
intelligence
is
at
least
a
few
years
away
from
causing
any
considerable
effects
on
our
lives，the
fact
remains
that
it
is
already
having
a
large
impact
on
us.Artificial
intelligence
is
affecting
our
decisions
and
our
lifestyles
every
day.
Smartphones
have
become
the
most
indispensable
tech
product
that
we
own
today
and
we
use
it
almost
all
the
time.Well，if
you
are
using
a
smartphone，you
are
interacting
with
AI
whether
you
know
it
or
not.AI
is
impacting
our
lives
every
day.In
fact，when
we
are
only
using
a
feature
such
as
the
portrait
mode
effect
(美颜)
while
shooting
a
picture，we
never
consider
that
AI
might
be
behind
that
too.
Talking
about
the
AI，there
is
no
better
display
of
this
technology
than
what
smart
cars
are
doing
with
it.Just
a
few
years
back，using
a
fully
automatic
car
was
a
dream，however，now
companies
like
Tesla
have
made
so
much
progress
that
we
have
automatic
cars
on
the
road.Tesla
cars
are
a
good
example
of
how
the
AI
is
impacting
our
daily
life.Do
you
know
that
all
the
Tesla
cars
are
connected
and
the
things
that
your
car
learns
are
shared
across
all
the
cars?
With
autonomous
cars
running
on
our
roads，you
won't
be
able
to
deny
the
impact
of
AI
on
our
lives.
If
you
are
thinking
that
smart
cars
don't
personally
affect
you
as
they
are
still
not
in
your
country
or
city，well，how
about
something
you
use
on
a
daily
basis.If
you
are
using
social
media，most
of
your
decisions
are
being
impacted
by
artificial
intelligence.The
music
and
media
streaming
services
that
we
are
using
on
a
daily
basis
are
also
another
great
example
of
how
AI
impacts
our
lives.Actually，AI
is
playing
a
big
role
in
our
lives.
【语篇解读】 文章阐述了人工智能已经对我们的生活产生了重大影响。

impacts
lives?
A．Smartphones
and
cameras.
B．Smart
cars

are
being
impacted
by
artificial

B [标题归纳题。根据文章第一段的“Artificial
intelligence
is
affecting
our
decisions
and
our
lifestyles
every
day.”可知，人工智能每天都在影响我们的决定和生活方式。再根据最后一段的“Actually，AI
is
playing
a

role
in
our
lives.”可知，实际上，人工智能在我们的生活中扮演着重要的角色。再结合全文都在讲述人工智能对生活的影响，所以文章的合适标题是“日常生活中的人工智能”。故选B项。]

Mary
waited
anxiously
for
her
turn
in
the
empty
dressing
room.Never
had
she
been
so
nervous
before.This
competition
was
of
vital
importance
to
her
comeback.“If
I
can
win
today，”
she
said
to
herself，“I
can
dance
on
the
national
stage
next
month.”
Three
months
ago，her
left
arm
was
seriously
injured
in
a
car
accident.After
the
medical
treatment，she
began
to
recover
slowly.She
practiced
over
and
over
again
in
order
to
regain
her
dancing
skills.
“Hi，Mary，”
in
rushed
her
friend
Jessica.“How
is
your
arm?
Is
it
going
to
influence
your
performance？”
“I
guess
it
can
be
tolerated
for
I
am
to
win
the
match.”
said
Mary
with
a
determined
look.
“Admirable!
But
I
hear
that
a
girl
called
Linda
is
really
gifted
and
strong.She
can
be
your
real
well?matched
e
on！”
After
Jessica
left，Mary
decided
to
practice
her
most
difficult
spin.“If
I
don't
try
harder，I
won't
grasp
this
chance.”
She
thought.But
her
arm
began
to
hurt，making
her
worried.“Mary，what
makes
you
think
you
have
a
chance
tonight？”
she
said
to
herself.After
the
pain
was
gone，she
continued
to
warm
up.
A
slim
girl
hurried
in
and
put
down
an
equipment
bag
on
the
chair.Then，she
took
out
her
dance
dress
quickly
and
put
it
on
skillfully.Seeing
Mary，she
smiled
politely
and
said
“Hi，I'm
Linda.I
am
the
next
one！”
Mary
nodded
in
reply
but
felt
uncomfortable.“This
is
just
my
competitor.Because
of
her，I
may
lose
the
game
tonight.”
Her
mind
was
wandering
when
Linda
let
out
a
scream，“Oh，I
can't
find
my
music
tape！”
Linda
searched
her
bag
but
in
vain.“It
may
be
missing
on
the
way.”
With
these
words，she
then
rushed
out.
注意：
1．续写词数应为150左右；

【参考范文】
Suddenly，Mary
caught
sight
of
a
black
box
under
the
chair
where
Linda
put
her
bag.She
went
over
and
then
opened
the
box
to
find
Linda's
tape
was
just
inside.At
that
time，she
was
in
a
dilemma，“This
is
my
chance
to
defeat
her.”
But
on
a
second
thought，she
changed
her
mind，“If
I
hide
it，I
will
win
the
competition
but
I
may
lose
something.”
She
placed
it
on
the
chair
carefully，leaving
a
note
saying
“Take
it
easy，we
are
the
best.”
Soon，it's
her
turn
to
come
on
the
stage.
Hearing
her
name
called，Mary
walked
on
the
stage
with
her
heart
beating
faster
and
faster.She
kept
reminding
herself，“I
have
been
practicing
for
so
long，and
I
will
certainly
make
it.”
But
the
serious
pain
in
her
arm
came
again
when
she
was
performing
the
most
difficult
spin.She
fell
down
on
the
stage.At
that
moment，Linda
came
back
in
low
spirits.To
her
surprise
and
relief
she
saw
the
tape
and
Mary's
note.With
Mary's
kindness
and
encouragement，Linda
finished
her
performance
calmly
and
skillfully.Finally，Mary
lost
the
game
but
she
believed
she
had
won
everything.

artist，was
sold
for
more
than
$80
million
on

Pond
was
part
of
a
four?work
collection
of

that
Monet
put
up
for

during
his

The
four

A
new
device
works
like
a
solar
panel，except
that
it
doesn't
harvest
energy
from
the
sun.It
absorbs
energy
from
the
cold
night
sky.
A
prototype(原型)of
the
device
produced
enough
electricity
at
night
to
power
a
small
light
bulb.A
bigger
version
might
one
day
light
rooms
or
charge
phones.It
also
could
power
electronics
in
remote
or
low?resource
areas
that
lack
electricity.
The
device
makes
use
of
the
temperature
difference
between
Earth
and
outer
space.It
then
uses
that
difference
to
create
electricity.As
long
as
one
side
of
it
is
cooler
than
the
other，the
generator
can
produce
electricity.The
cooler
side
faces
the
sky
and
is
attached
to
an
aluminum
plate.That
plate
is
sealed
beneath
a
transparent
cover
and
surrounded
with
insulation(隔热材料)
to
keep
out
heat.The
bottom
of
the
generator
is
attached
to
an
exposed
aluminum
plate.That
plate
is
warmed
by
the
local
air.At
night，the
top
plate
can
get
a
couple
of
degrees
Celsius
cooler
than
the
bottom
of
the
generator.
Researchers
tested
a
20?centimeter
prototype
one
clear
December
night
in
Stanford，California.The
generator
produced
up
to
about
25
milliwatts
of
power
per
square
meter
of
device.That
was
enough
power
to
light
a
small
light?emitting
diode，or
LED
bulb.Further
improvements
might
increase
its
production
to
at
least
500
milliwatts
per
square
meter.To
do
that，the
system
might
need
more
insulation
around
the
cool
top
plate.
The
device
also
could
help
power
remote
weather
stations
or
other
environmental
devices，says
Aaswath
Raman.He
is
a
materials
scientist
who
worked
on
the
device
at
the
University
of
California，Los
Angeles.“This
may
be
useful
in
polar
regions
that
don't
see
sunlight
for
months
at
a
time，”Raman
says，“If
you
have
some
low?power
load
and
you
need
to
power
it
through
three
months
of
darkness，this
might
be
a
way.”
【语篇解读】 文章介绍了一项最新的科研发明——反太阳能电池板，它可以从寒冷的夜空中收集能量，然后通过利用地表和远处空间的温差来产生电能。目前的研究成果是它可以成功为一只小灯泡提供电能。
5．What
can
we
know
about
the
new
device?
A．It
gains
energy
from
the
sun.
B．It's
been
widely
used
in
life.
C．It
is
cooler
than
a

D．It'll

D [推理判断题。根据第二段的最后一句“It
also
could
power
electronics
in
remote
or
low?resource
areas
that
lack
electricity.”和最后一段的最后一句“...If
you
have
some
low?power
load
and
you
need
to
power
it
through
three
months
of
darkness，this
might
be
a
way.”可知，这种装置在一些偏远地区或缺电的地区帮助发电；另外，在极地地区数月不见阳光，这种装置可以帮助发电照明。由此可推知，这个新设备会在一些特殊地区受欢迎。故选D项。]
6．What
does
the

mainly
talk
about
in
Paragraph
3?
A．Application
fields
of
the
device.
B．The
developing

of
the
device.
C．The
working
principle
of
the
device.
D．Significant
effects
of
the
device.
C [主旨大意题。根据第三段叙述可推知第三段主要讲了这个设备发电的主要工作原理。故选C项。]
7．How
can
the
device
produce
more
electricity?
A．By
putting
more
insulation
around
the
top
plate.
B．By
using
it
in
extremely
cold
and
clear
nights.
C．By
attaching
the

D．By

a
transparent
lid.
A [细节理解题。根据第四段中“To
do
that，the
system
might
need
more
insulation
around
the
cool
top
plate.”可知，此处To
do
that是指前一句“让这装置产生更多的电量”。因此，该装置系统需要在上面的金属板四周安装更多的隔热材料才可以产生更多的电能。故选A项。]

more
quickly
or
will
it
delay
the
healing
process?
Health
experts
answer
these
and
other
questions
on
the
Mayo
Clinic
website.Mild
to
moderate
physical
activity
is
usually
OK
if
you
have
a
common
cold.According
to
the
experts，it
is
usually
fine
to
exercise
if
your
symptoms
are
all
“above
the
neck”．
2
．In
fact，exercise
may
make
you
feel
better
by
“opening
your
blocked
nose”．This
may
temporarily
reduce
congestion
and
help
you
to
breathe
more
easily.
3
，though.So
be
on
guard
for
symptoms
such
as
chest
congestion，extreme
cough
or
pain
in
the
stomach.Besides，there
are
other
symptoms
that
can
tell
you
to
avoid
exercise.They
include:
a
higher
than
normal
body
temperature，a
sense
of
feeling
extremely
tired，also
known
as
fatigue，and
widespread
muscle
pain.

．
Finally，experts
suggest
learning
to
listen
to
your
body.If
you
feel
really
bad，take
a
break
and
let
your
body
rest.If
you
don't
feel
too
bad，these
experts
both
suggest
cutting
back
on
the
intensity
(强度)
of
your
exercise
routine.
5
．Experts
all
indicate
that
a
few
days
off
from
exercise
when
you
are
sick
shouldn't
affect
your
performance.You
can
return
to
your
usual
intensity
when
you
feel
better.
A．These
signs
may
include
a
runny
nose，nasal
congestion
(鼻塞)，sneezing
or
a
minor
sore
throat
B．Experts
especially
point
out
that
if
you
feel
tightness
in
the
chest，it
is
not
advisable
to
work
out
C．They
exercise
for
a
few
minutes
every
day
or
every
other
day
D．Exercising
will
result
in
more
severe
illness
E．For
example，if
you
usually
run，take
a
quick
walk
instead
F．Experts
suggest
taking
a
break
from
exercising
if
signs
of
your
illness
appear
“below
the
neck”
G．Exercising
regularly
keeps
us
feeling
exhausted

Ⅱ.阅读理解
In
our
annual
Readers'
Choice
Awards
survey，we
asked
our
readers
to
rate
their
favorite
cities
in
the
world
for
arts
and
culture.These
cities
are
centres
of
music
and
dance，museums，and
theatres.Here
are
four
of
them
where
you
can
find
inspiration
in
the
arts，starting
with
the
top
spot.
Rome，Italy
At
its
peak，the
Roman
Empire
extended
over
nearly
two
million
square
miles
of
land
across
Europe，Asia
Minor
and
North
Africa.Today，that
history
is
on
display
everywhere.The
city's
main
attractions
are
famous
not
because
of
tourist
advertisements，but
because
they
are
really
so
impressive.No
wonder
it's
known
as
the
Eternal
City：You
could
spend
forever
here
and
find
new
artistic
and
cultural
treasures
every
day.
Paris，France
Hemingway
famously
called
Paris
“a
moveable
feast”，but
wherever
you
go
while
in
the
city，there
is
always
something
to
see，hear，taste
or
feel.With
some
150
museums，Paris
doubles
as
an
art
history
class，offering
the
very
best
of
the
discipline
across
centuries
and
styles.
London，The
United
Kingdom
London
is
inspiration
and
setting
for
the
rise
of
Shakespeare，Dickens，Orwell
and
Eliot
and
the
breeding
ground
for
all
those
iconic
(标志性的)
bands：The
Kinks，The
Clash
and
The
Stones.London
is
also
Banksy's
favorite
canvas，home
to
more
than
1，000
galleries，and
the
kind
of
pace
where
you
can
spend
a
whole
day
in
a
single
museum
and
still
be
ready
for
more
when
it
opens
the
next
morning.
Vienna，Austria
As
we
all
know，Western
music
would
be
unrecognizable
without
Austria's
capital，which
nurtured
many
famous
musicians.It's
also
the
site
of
the
Vienna
Secession，a
revolutionary
art
movement
founded
in
1897
by
Gustav
Klimt.Visitors
today
can
see
the
fruits
of
all
that
creativity
in
the
city's
100?odd
museums.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了罗马、巴黎、伦敦、维也纳这四个艺术和文化城市。

wonder
it's
known
as
the
Eternal
City：You

artistic
and
cultural
treasures
every
day.”可知，罗马被认为是永恒之城的原因是人们很容易发现新的艺术和文化。故选C。]

the
last
paragraph
mean?

out
from
behind
the
bush
and
right
into
the
arms
of
campus
police，who'd
joined
the
chase
shortly
behind
the
runners.
The
members
of
this
running
group
are
not
12
runners.But
they
do
understand
the

of
a
little
exercise.“Running
is
typically
a
14
sport
where
you
turn
fat
cells

useful，and
here
was

Ⅳ.语法填空
Dachi
was
the
name
of
my
pet
cockatiel.His
name
comes
from
the
second
half
of
the
Japanese
word
tomodachi，1.________means
friend.
I
taught
Dachi
to
whistle
two
songs，“For
He's
A
Jolly
Good

and
“Happy
Birthday
to

his
whole

(滞后)，and
he
would
frequently
wish
me
a

wasn't

which
could
be
3.________(embarrass)．
When
Dachi
had
been
with
us
for
three
or
four
years，I
think
I
may
have
become
a
bit
too
confident
with
him.One
day，I
didn't
realize
that
he
was
still
sitting
on
my
shoulder
4.________
the
door
behind

shut

After
I
placed
6.________
advertisement

received

call
from
a

was
so
relieved
to

I
7.________
(immediate)
drove

her
house.When
I

asked
me

8.________(my)．
I
had
a
better
idea
9.________
(identify)
Dachi
and
began
to
whistle
the
“Happy
Birthday
to
You”
song.The
lady
stopped
me，saying，“He
is

—
he's
been
whistling
that
all
week.”
So
Dachi
came
home
in
the
car
10.________
(sit)
on
my
shoulder，whistling.
【语篇解读】 文章讲述了我教给我的宠物小鹦鹉Dachi两首歌，有一天他不小心飞走了，一位女士发现了他并让我确认Dachi的身份，当我开始吹“生日快乐”这首歌时，那位女士相信他就是我的Dachi了。
1．which [考查非限定性定语从句关系词。句意：他的名字来自日语单词tomodachi的后半部分，意思是朋友。从句是先行词的附加说明，去掉了也不会影响主句的意思，它与主句之间通常用逗号分开，故此句为非限定性定语从句。非限定性定语从句关系词只能用which，不能用that。故填which。]
2．confidence [考查名词。句意：虽然他的各种能力很小，他的信心从来没有落后。所填词作主语，前面又有人称代词his修饰，应用所给单词的名词形式，confident自信的，是形容词，名词形式是confidence(信心)，故填confidence。]
3．embarrassing [考查形容词。句意：他会经常在不是我生日的时候祝我生日快乐——这可能是令人尴尬的。所填词在句子中作表语，用以说明主语的性质或特征，应用所给词的形容词形式embarrassing(令人尴尬的)。故填embarrassing。]
4．until [考查连词。句意：有一天，我不知道他还坐在我的肩膀上，直到门在我身后大声关上。not...until/till直到……才，为固定搭配，引导时间状语从句，故填until。]
5．flew [考查时态。句意：他飞走了。根据前后句时态信息，本句应用一般过去时讲述过去的经历，动词fly的过去式是flew。故填flew。]
6．an [考查冠词。句意：我在当地报纸上登了一则广告后，接到一位女士的电话。advertisement广告，可数名词，此处表泛指，应用不定冠词修饰；又因其首字母音为元音音素，所以用an。故填an。]
7．immediately [考查副词。句意：听到这个消息我如释重负，立刻开车去了她家。此处修饰动词drove，应用所给词的副词形式作状语。immediate立刻的、即刻的，是形容词，其副词形式是immediately。故填immediately。]
8．mine [考查代词。句意：我到的时候，她问我这只鸟是不是我的。此处代指“my
bird”，
应用名词性物主代词mine作表语。故填mine。]
9．to
identify [考查动词不定式。句意：我有一个更好的主意来识别Dachi，并开始吹“生日快乐”的歌。名词idea后面通常用动词不定式作定语，表示来识别Dachi的主意。故填to
identify。]
10．sitting [考查现在分词。句意：于是在开车回家的路上Dachi坐在我肩上，吹着口哨。sit在句子中作伴随状语，主语Dachi与动词sit之间为逻辑上的主谓关系，所以用sit的现在分词形式，故填sitting。]

第一印象
6月3日
法国，巴黎
作为一个忠实的艺术迷，我很清楚我的巴黎之行最期待的是什么：参观奥赛博物馆。这座世界举世闻名的艺术博物馆设于一座古老的铁路建筑中，重点展出十九世纪印象派运动中最著名的一些画作。
当我漫步在印象派画廊，我欣赏像《舞蹈课》和《玩纸牌者》这类杰作。尽管我已经在电脑屏幕上欣赏过数百次了，但当我终于看到实物时，一切都让我感到预料不到的惊奇。虽然很难从这么多令人惊叹的作品中挑选出一幅最受欢迎的画，但给我印象最深的艺术家是两位最伟大的印象派画家克劳德·莫奈和皮埃尔?奥古斯特·雷诺阿。
从莫奈的作品中我可以看出他深受大自然的启发。在他生命的最后三十年里，他大多画的是花园里的景象。其中一个景象出现在著名的作品《蓝睡莲》中，我在画廊里对此察看了很长时间。当我听说他画了大约250幅同一个睡莲池的画时，我简直不敢相信，所有的画都是不同的颜色和风格。令人惊奇的是，每次莫奈观看这简单的景象，他都以一种独特的方式把池塘的美描绘在画布上。
我注意到雷诺阿更喜欢画日常生活的景象。对我来说，他画作中最有趣的是他1876年的杰作《煎饼磨坊的舞会》，它展示了一个周日下午巴黎繁忙街区的生活。我靠近观察，画面上遍布着小面积的光斑，人物柔和的轮廓好像融为一体，令我惊叹不已。描绘的人物太多了，但清楚的细节太少了。这种效果让观赏者几乎一眼就看出画中活泼的舞蹈动作。
虽然这些画的背景非常不同，但在我离开奥赛博物馆很久之后，它们的相似之处一直伴随着我——从印象派画家的画作中可以看出它们的相似之处。莫奈和雷诺阿，以及其他志同道合的艺术家，寻求从旧风格的规则中解放出来。日常题材是他们作品的重点，这有别于传统上在欧洲艺术中占主导地位的历史题材画作。他们运用了自由的笔触，用色彩来展示光投射在物体上的效果，创作出的绘画作品远不像前人所作的那么写实。对我来说，这些技巧是印象派艺术观的精髓。印象派艺术家并没有试图描绘一个场景中的每一个细节，只是他们在那一刻的一个短暂的“印象”，他们趁印象还没消失，用生动的色彩和光线作画。
印象派画家的视觉启发了文森特·凡·高和保罗·高更等全新一代的后印象派画家，他们的作品也在奥赛博物馆展出。同样值得注意的是，后印象派画家并不是唯一受印象派影响的画家，这一运动对现代艺术产生了持久的影响，鼓励艺术家从全新的角度看世界。这当然也给我留下了持久的印象！
