Unit 3 The art of painting Period 5 Extended reading(1) Ⅰ. 话题拓展阅读。 The appearance of a rare artistic treasure in Beijing over the weekend resulted in crowds waiting in line for six hours at the Palace Museum, also known as the Forbidden City.① The crowds were eager to see the Qingming Scroll, the best­known scroll painting in Chinese art history, at the Hall of Martial Valor. The work is sometimes referred to as China's Mona Lisa. The scroll painting by Zhang Zeduan(10851145), measuring 24.8 centimetres wide and 528.7 centimetres long, depicts a lively and rich landscape in Bianjing—today's Kaifeng in Henan Province.② Faced with its huge popularity, the Palace Museum said it would organize another exhibition of the work in 2020, the 600th anniversary of the Forbidden City.③ “With growing public demand for exhibitions of national treasures, waiting in line for hours has become routine，” the museum said in a statement. “For example, in 2002, when the scroll painting was displayed in Shanghai, viewers also waited six hours in line.” The work is seldom displayed because of its fragility. Wang Qi said she drove hundreds of kilometres from Hohhot in Inner Mongolia to visit the exhibition, and it took her most of the day to finally see the scroll painting. “It was too exhausting, but I still think it was worthwhile，” Wang said. The scroll painting forms part of a special exhibition titled “The Precious Collection of the Stone Moat”， which includes 283 ancient paintings and handwriting masterpieces once recorded in the Qing Dynasty emperors' catalog. The display is a main event marking the 90th anniversary of the museum's opening to the public.④ Shan Jixiang, the Palace Museum director, had earlier anticipated huge crowds. “However, we still need to let more people know about the exhibition because it took 10 years for them to have this opportunity，⑤” Shan said. The museum suggested that visitors book tickets online in advance. The scroll painting is on display until Oct. 12. —Adapted from www.ancient­origins.net of Sep. 22th, 2015 一、 阅读短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 (　　) 1.

This statue is one of the most famous artworks of Greek art. __1__ Later it was brought to Paris and has been on display in the Louvre since 1866.

When viewers look at her, they can almost feel the wind from the sea. __3__ The statue, as it stands today in the Louvre, has been partly repaired. The right wing is a modern copy, but the missing feet, arms, and head have not been recovered, giving viewers much to imagine. For instance, did the Nike hold objects in her hands? In fact, people found her right hand in 1950, whose fingers are spread out. __4__ She must have simply raised her right arm in greeting.
