Unit 1 ART Starting around 4000 B. C., traditional Chinese brush painting has developed continuously over a period of more than six thousand years.It’s growth has reflected the changes of time. 大约从公元前4000年开始，中国传统的水墨画在六千多年的时间里不断发展。它的发展反映了时代的变化。 During the 1st century A. D., the art of painting religious morals gradually gained in prominence(明显;突出），with the introduction of Buddhism to China and the consequent building of temples. 在公元1世纪，随着佛教传人中国及寺庙的随之出现，关于宗教道德的绘画逐渐获得声望。 However, the subject later expanded beyond religious themes. For example,paintings of historical characters and stories of everyday life became extremely popular. By the 4th century, this particular type of painting had already established itself as an independent form of expression. It then gradually developed into two separate styles including a genre（艺术风格）commonly found in Chinese brush painting—flower-and-bird painting. A great many artists in the 9th century painted in this genre and their subjects included a rich variety of flowers,fruits, birds, insects and fish. 然而，这个主题后来扩展到宗教主题之外。例如，历史人物和日常生活故事的绘画变得非常受欢迎。到了公元4世纪，这种特殊的绘画形式已经成为一种独立的表达形式。然后它逐渐发展成两个独立的风格，包括一种常见的中国水墨画——花鸟画。 Since the turn of the 20th century, painters have often mixed several colors on one brush or mixed their colors with black inks, which is similar to the western painting skill. As a result, they have obtained more natural and richly varied colors. Such techniques have been widely adopted and further developed in the contemporary period. 自20世纪初以来，画家们经常在一支毛笔上混合多种颜色，或将颜色与黑色墨水混合，这与西方的绘画技巧类似。因此，他们获得了更自然和丰富多样的颜色。这种技巧在当代得到了广泛的采用和进一步的发展。 [词汇积累] 1. tradition- traditional 2.continue- continuous-continuously 3. reflect- reflected -reflected 4. moral-morally 5.expand- expanded -expanded 6.history- historical 7.depend- dependent- independent 8.express- expressive- expression 9. a great many = a large number of = a great quantity of 10. a variety of = varieties of = various
