类文赏读 同题异文　拓展阅读 Cultural heritage Unit 1 A (选自北师大版必修第三册 Unit 7) The Starry Night was painted in June 1889 when Vincent van Gogh was staying at a home for the mentally ill.Van Gogh painted what he saw from his window—the night sky with clouds，stars and a moon.However，he didn’t just paint the clouds.He also painted the massive circles of white and yellow racing across the sky.The stars and the moon hang bright in the night sky.Beneath this amazing sky，we see a sleeping village and a dark，lonely tree. His unusual use of colour has led experts to think that Van Gogh’s mental illness may have affected his sense of sight.He also took a drug that can make people see yellow spots，just like the stars in The Starry Night. Unfortunately，Van Gogh’s unique paintings weren’t very popular and he only sold one painting in his lifetime.He also thought The Starry Night was a failure.However，the fact remains that The Starry Night is now one of the world’s most famous paintings. The Scream was painted by Edvard Munch in 1893.What makes it striking is that it shows a thin figure with an expression of fear—the figure’s mouth is wide open and letting out a powerful scream.The figure covers his or her ears and looks directly at the viewer.This figure is set on a bridge above a dark，stormy sea，and against a burning orange-red sky. In his diary，Munch talked about what inspired him.“I was walking down the road with two friends when the sun set; suddenly the sky turned as red as blood...I stood there shaking.Then I heard the scream of nature.” Many experts say that The Scream is connected to Munch’s mental health problems，which caused him a lot of pain. The Empire of Light is among a series of paintings by Belgian artist René Magritte between 1953 and 1954.He painted the same scene 27 times.It shows a beautiful house lit by lights from inside，surrounded by the darkness of night.What is strange is that above the house and the tree，we see a daytime sky full of brightness and soft white clouds.It seems like quite a mysterious scene. Magritte was a painter inspired by his thoughts and ideas.His paintings were visual experiments as he tried to play with reality.His view was that art should shock the viewers and challenge their sense of reality. The Empire of Light has produced different reactions in viewers. Some feel that the paintings look dark and troubling.Others，however，find them calming.As for Magritte himself，he thought that the change between day and night in the paintings was surprising.“I call this power：poetry，” he said. 1.Which of the following words can describe the writer’s attitude towards The Starry Night? A.Appreciative.　　　　 B.Disagreeable. C.Negative. D.Uninterested. √ 2.What might be the cause of the strange The Scream according to experts? A.A burning fire. B.Munch’s mental problems.

C.He was influenced by his own thoughts and ideas. D.He loved nature and got inspiration from it. √ 4.What does the passage mainly talk about? A.Three famous painters.

Greetings from Paris，everyone！This broadcast is being brought to you from one of the largest museums on Earth—the Louvre！Today we’re going to find out about some of the Louvre’s most amazing treasures.Here we go! Now，at the top of these stone stairs...get a load of that！That huge sculpture you can see is the Winged Victory of Samothrace，or Nike of Samothrace! I can’t even begin to tell you how amazing this is! It looks like she has just flown down out of the sky and is standing on a ship.Her head and arms are missing，but you can imagine her holding her arms up high，celebrating the result of an ancient battle.And just look at how her dress is being folded by the wind！I really can’t believe she’s made of stone.The skill of the sculptor is just incredible. Okay，I’d better move on.You can see there are so many people here.I’m being pushed around quite a bit，in fact.And you’re really going to love what’s coming up next.It’s the one and only Mona Lisa! The painting is a lot smaller than you would expect，and is protected by glass.But from here I can get a good view to show you.When I look into her eyes it seems she has a mind of her own! One moment she seems to be laughing at me，but then again I catch a sense of sadness in her smile.I guess that’s why she attracts so many visitors every day. And now，it’s time to get up close and personal with one of history’s greatest artists—Rembrandt! He painted this self-portrait about 400 years ago.Throughout his life，he made over 90 self-portraits！No one really knows why.Perhaps it was his way of taking a 17th-century selfie？Or was it simply cheaper to paint himself than to pay for a model? About 35,000 works are currently being displayed in over 300 rooms in the Louvre，and it would take a lifetime to see everything! I’ll say bye for now，and hope you can all visit this fantastic place one day to feel the power of these great works of art for yourselves.They really do reach out to us across the centuries as if time itself were nothing.By the way，if you have enjoyed this live broadcast，subscribe to find out where I’m visiting next! 5.What can we learn from Zack’s description of the Winged Victory of Samothrace? A.The sculpture was vividly carved. B.It was made by a famous painter. C.The museum had lost her arms. D.The sculptor lost a battle on the sea. √ 6.What can we infer from the third paragraph? A.Mona Lisa looks quite beautiful. B.Mona Lisa often smiles at visitors. C.The room is crowded with visitors. D.Mona Lisa is kept at the top of the stairs. √ 7.What do we know about the Louvre from the last paragraph? A.The Louvre is very large in size. B.Many artists live in the museum.
