Ⅱ.阅读理解(每小题2.5分,满分20分)
A
Black and white mountains and rocks covered in colorful mist—the combination of Chinese and Western painting styles—attracts Michela Millstein at an art exhibition in San Francisco.
“I think there are a lot of meanings behind the paintings.You can tell that it’s trying to show cultural things and not just a picture,” Millstein says.Having studied Chinese for three years,Millstein,a high school student in the San Francisco Bay Area,says she loves Chinese culture.
The exhibition,The Flying Colors,presented more than 60 pieces of Chinese ink paintings by a local artist,Arthur Ku,at San Francisco City Hall recently.
“Arthur Ku is a well-known painter,calligrapher,and artist;his endless devotion to the art community has undoubtedly contributed to the vitality(活力) of San Francisco,” the mayor said in the announcement.
Ku was born in Guangdong Province in 1941 and settled down in the United States in 1977.He has been exploring the “splash ink and color” style,which is a technique of working with splashy(泼墨),colorful washes to create an abstract,expressive style.Ku’s artistic talent in traditional Chinese brush and ink painting inspired a unique style of down-to-earth and creative freedom,which created a critical attempt of traditional Chinese brush painting into modern and contemporary art,according to mayor’s statement.
Ku is also keen to promote cultural and artistic exchanges between China and the US to improve art and friendship.He has successfully held several joint painting exhibitions in the US for artists from China.
“I think inclusiveness brings unity and diversity brings vitality.We are now living in the most challenging times.So,I think it’s important for us to embrace more inclusiveness and diversity,to have more cultural dialogue,so that we can communicate better and respect each other more,” said Arthur Ku.

Born in the Netherlands in 1853,Van Gogh led a simple life in a small town until the age of 16.He then left school and joined a firm of art dealers in the large city of Hague.He eventually realised that dealing with others’ artwork was not his profession.His true love was to become an artist himself.
He devoted much of his time to learning the fundamentals of drawing.Van Gogh believed that to become a great painter,one must first master the ability to draw.It was only after he was comfortable in this area that he began to use oil paints.That is when he developed a style and talent for colour that made him one of the most respected artists of all time.
Van Gogh’s paintings are amazing representations of his view of the world.The colours jump off the canvas(画布),not only because of their brightness but also because of the brush strokes(笔触).Van Gogh avoided light,feathery strokes,which would portray(描绘) typical subjects.Instead,he used his brush and oils to make layers that built the painting until it was almost three-dimensional.
Perhaps one of the most memorable examples of Van Gogh’s use of colour and brush style is his painting The Starry Night.The sky swirls(打旋) across the canvas,while the stars shine with unearthly brightness.Each brush stroke creates the image of movement.The Starry Night shows Van Gogh’s great ability to create a powerful image with simple subjects.
Van Gogh spent only the last ten years of his life painting.He is believed to have sold only one of the 900 paintings he created during those years.Yet today Van Gogh is considered one of the greatest artists of all time.His influence is evident:many painters mimic his style and use of colour.His artwork can be found in museums all over the world and is valued in millions of dollars,an evidence for Vincent van Gogh’s talent.
