A
Georiga O'Keeffe always thought of herself as an artist.By 1928,the rest of the world did,too.At the age of 41 she was living in New York City and becoming a wellknown painter.Still,O'Keeffe wasn't happy.New York had been a good source of ideas for almost ten years.Now those ideas were drying up.O'Keeffe felt like she needed a change.She had visited New Mexico in 1917 with her sister.The wide open space had thrilled her.“Maybe I should go back,” she thought.In April of 1929,O'Keeffe packed her bags.
The wide open space of New Mexico drew O'Keeffe in.She spent hours just watching the sky change.Because the light was so clear,she felt like she could see for the first time.The beauty of the land renewed her.She couldn't wait to start painting.Cow and horse skulls and desert flowers filled her canvases(画布).The colors of the desert inspired O'Keeffe.As a result,she made new choices in her artwork.“The color up there is different,”she explained.She loved the dusty blues and greens.
That August,O'Keeffe went home to New York.It was the start of a pattern.Each spring,she traveled to New Mexico to paint.These trips restored her spirit.Then,in the fall,she would return to New York.There,she showed her work.Each time O'Keeffe visited New Mexico,she explored a little more.
The bleached animal bones and skulls that O'Keeffe found excited her because she could see their special beauty.The bones didn't mean death to O'Keeffe.To her,they showed the lasting beauty of the desert.The landscapes,clear light,and bright colors also spoke to her.She often painted closeups of the rocks and mountains.Later,she began to travel more in search of new ideas.However,she always came back to New Mexico.
As O'Keeffe grew older,her eyesight began to fail.Still,O'Keeffe wasn't ready to give up.Her friend Juan Hamilton helped her work with watercolors.He also taught her to sculpt.As a result,she made art into her 90s.When she died at the age of 98,Hamilton sprinkled her ashes over the desert.Her body became part of the land that had touched her art and her life.
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了画家乔治亚·奥基夫每年春天都从纽约出发到新墨西哥州的沙漠里挖掘艺术灵感的故事。
1.O'Keeffe was unhappy in New York in 1928 because ________ .
A.she was lack of the creative ideas
B.she felt disappointed about her job
C.she was not successful as an artist
D.she felt bored about life in a big city
解析:A [细节理解题。根据第一段中的“New York had been a good source of ideas for almost ten years.Now those ideas were drying up.”可知,近十年来,纽约一直是一个很好的创意来源地。现在,这些想法正在枯竭,由此可知,1928年,乔治亚·奥基夫在纽约生活得并不开心是因为她缺乏创造性的想法。故选A。]
2.After her trips to New Mexico,O'Keeffe ________ .
A.received great reputation there
B.discovered the meaning in her life

Not even a flooded river could stand between Mary Breckinridge and the hospital her patients needed.A heavy rain ruined the banks beside Mary Breckinridge's Wendover,Kentucky,clinic.She had to find a way to get her five patients to the hospital in Lexington.
With a neighbor's help,Mary and the nurses built a boat.They named it Ambulance,and on the morning of December 30,1926,Mary,another nurse,and the patients set off down the river.After sixteen wild miles on the dangerous river,they arrived at the train station in Krypton.As she watched the train pull away with her patients safely on board,Mary smiled and waved.
Mary had not planned to be a nurse.She was the daughter of a wealthy Kentucky politician.As a child,Mary was influenced by her family who had always been concerned about the poor people of the state.When she grew up,Mary was inspired to become a nurse.So in 1925 Mary hired a few Britishtrained nurses and,with some money from her family,started the Frontier Nursing Service in Wendover,Kentucky.
Before Mary and her nurses came,the mountain people lived a hard life.Families made so little money that they could not afford doctors or medicine.Many children had diseases and nearly every person was in bad health for lack of food.
Mary and the nurses built clinics and a small hospital deep in the forests of Leslie County.There were no paved(铺好的)roads,electricity,or telephones.Each day the nurses rode on horseback to faraway farms,often in bad weather, to answer calls for help.They worked hard to keep an eye on their patients.
To the grateful mountain people,Mary and the nurses seemed to be everywhere.They treated everything from cut fingers to pneumonia(肺炎)and delivered babies.The proud countrymen liked the nurses because they treated everyone with respect.
The Frontier Nursing Service grew.Today their nursing service reaches far beyond the Kentucky mountains.Medical professionals from all over the world come to Wendover to study rural(乡村的)health care in action.When these men and women go back to their own countries,they are prepared to help people in need.
