Each form allows people 1 their creativity and feelings. Fan Kuan, a great landscape painter of the Song dynasty, believed that art comes from nature. He said, "Nature is the greatest master. We 2 learn from it with our hearts." Fan lived in mountains for years. He watched the sun rise and set, 3 the wind blow through the trees, and listened to the rain fall on the leaves. He thought that 4 we want to create real art, we must be in harmony with nature. One day, Fan met an old farmer in the mountains. The farmer was surprised 5 a stranger there. He warned Fan to stop, but Fan stayed calm and explained his purpose. The farmer felt safe then and invited Fan to his home. Fan was grateful, so he painted a picture for the farmer 6 . The picture was 7 vivid that the farmer couldn't believe his eyes. He said, "I have never seen 8 amazing painting before!" Fan's story tells us that 9 art is not easy.

Art is a universal language that connects people from different cultures. 1 There are many forms of art, including painting, music, drama, pottery and folk art. Each form has its own unique charm. 2 For example, Carlos from Brazil thinks art is a form of self-expression and creativity. He uses art to share his ideas and feelings with others. Emma from France loves visiting art museums, as she believes art brings beauty into daily life. Tracy from South Africa regards art as part of her family tradition—making dolls has been passed down in her family for years. 3 He was a great landscape painter of the Song dynasty. His painting idea was deeply influenced by nature. He once told young artists, "You must study with a greater master than me—Nature." 4 He lived in mountains, observed the seasons, and felt nature with all his senses. His works are so vivid that people who see them often feel as if they are in the mountains themselves. 5 Whether it's a famous painting, a traditional shadow play, or a student's calligraphy work, art enriches our lives and helps us understand the world better. 【知识梳理】 Unit 1 Art and artists词汇词组练习 1.课本单词 序号 单词/词组 音标 中文释义 1. /,self k'spre n/ n.自我表达 2. /kri:e 't v ti/ n.创造力 3. /'s z z/ n.(pl) 剪刀 4. /'dr :m / n.戏剧 5. /' kt / n.表演 6. /'n :ml adj.典型的;正常的 7. 更喜欢…… 而不是…… 8. /'p t ri/ n.陶器;制陶技艺 9. 而不是 10. /p 'z n/ n.位置;地方 11. /' nstr m nt/ n.器具;仪器 12. /'sk lpt (r)/ n.雕塑;雕塑作品 13. /'sk lpt (r)/ n.雕塑家;雕刻家 14. /'l ndske p/ n.风景;景色 15. /'m :st (r)/ n.能手;大师;擅长…… 的人 16. /'d n sti/ n.王朝;朝代 17. /pe nt/ v.绘画 18. /'h :m ni/ n.融洽;和谐 19. /p : / n.小道;小径 20. / 'hed/ adv.在前方 21. /hu:'ev (r)/ pron. 无论谁;不管什么人 22.

Fan was so good at painting that young artists always asked him to teach them to paint. "You must study with a greater master than me," Fan replied. "Who is he? Where can we find him?" they asked curiously. Fan replied with a smile, "He is called Nature. He lives all around you." Fan painted with the idea of being in harmony with nature. He believed that if you wanted to understand nature, you had to touch it, smell it and listen to it. That was what he always did. He lived in mountains and forests, and watched the seasons change. However, many people thought he was strange. 译文: 范宽是宋代最伟大的山水画家之一。范宽的绘画技艺如此高超,以至于年轻的画家们总是请他教他们画画。 “你们必须向一位比我更伟大的大师学习,”范宽回答道。 “他是谁?我们在哪里能找到他?”他们好奇地问。 范宽微笑着回答:“他名叫自然,他就在你们身边。” 范宽的绘画理念是与自然和谐相处。他认为,如果你想理解自然,就必须触摸它、嗅闻它、聆听它。这正是他一直以来所做的。他住在山林里,观察四季的变化。然而,许多人认为他很奇怪。 E.写作范文(My favourite work of art) My favourite work of art is A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte, created by the French artist Seurat.

It's such a peaceful scene that I want to step into the painting and spend a day there. I love the relaxed life in it. Do you like it too?我最喜欢的艺术品是法国艺术家修拉创作的《大碗岛的星期日下午》。这幅画创作于1884年至1886年之间。它呈现了一个周末生活的场景。一些人坐在凉爽的绿草地上聊天,另一些人则欣赏着塞纳河的夏日景色,河面上还有小小的白色船只。狗在奔跑,孩子们在玩耍。这是一个如此平静的场景,我真想走进画里,在那里待一天。我喜欢画中那种悠闲的生活。你也喜欢它吗? F.文化拓展(Art in different forms) Shadow plays are an old traditional folk art of China. They're like a very old form of cinema. The puppets appear as shadows on the screen thanks to a light. People move the puppets and tell stories. Chinese people have enjoyed this early form of entertainment for more than a thousand years.皮影戏是中国一种古老的传统民间艺术。它们就像一种非常古老的电影形式。多亏了一盏灯,木偶在屏幕上呈现出影子。人们操控木偶来讲故事。中国人已经享受这种早期的娱乐形式超过一千年了。 练一练 1.单项选择 1.

For years, this “fidgeting” (小动作) was seen as a(n) 40 that a person was not interested or was losing focus. But what if we’ve been wrong all along? Simple moves help A study from Harvard University asked two groups of students to listen to a difficult speech. One group could hold and press soft balls quietly while the other could not. The fidgeting group did much better on the following test. Dr. John Ratey explains that you can clear away mental noise and pay attention better by moving your body, 41 a little. This works because it increases a helpful brain chemical. Therefore, some researchers argue that for many, fidgeting isn’t a problem—it’s a way that allows the brain to 42 other things and focus on the main task. Wrong moves fail However, the benefits depend on the type of fidget. A study from the UK found that simple fidgeting, like moving your foot, could help you focus. But fidgeting with something 43 , like solving a puzzle, could injure your attention. It makes your brain work too hard. 44 , a brain scientist says the sound of a fidget toy can be a problem for others. This noise can make it hard for everyone in the room to do their work. 45 moves win It seems that the type of fidget extremely matters. The key is a fidget that doesn’t require thought. As for the noise? “The thoughtful fidgeter is the good fidgeter,” concludes Dr. Medina. “If you feel the need to fidget, you’d better choose a simple, silent one. Your tool shouldn’t become someone else’s problem.” 40.A.sign B.goal C.excuse D.reason 41.A.especially B.hardly C.first D.even 42.A.deal with B.get rid of C.run into D.go over 43.A.different B.interesting C.difficult D.easy 44.A.What’s more B.In fact C.For example D.As a result 45.A.Quick B.Loud C.Hard D.Smart 八、任务型阅读 I was raised by my grandma in Arkansas, and she shaped the way I see the world. Grandma was always graceful. She spoke softly and walked slowly with her hands behind her back. I copied her every move, and our neighbors called me her shadow. When I was thirteen, I moved to California to live with my mother. My new house was a world away from Grandma’s little home. In Arkansas, we listened to the news and fun radio shows. My grandma seldom had visitors. Even when she did have visitors, those elderly friends of hers were well-behaved, just like my grandma. In California, my mother played loud music on a record player. She wore lipstick (口红) and rouge (胭脂).The house was often filled with the laughter and loud talking of her guests, who kept rushing in and out. I clearly didn’t fit in. I walked around my room like Grandma—with my hands behind my back. My mother watched me for two weeks. Then, one night, she sat me down. “Maya,” she said. “I know you don't like me because I am not like your grandma. I am not. But I am your mother and I am working hard to keep this roof over your head and to take care of you. When you go to school, the teacher will smile at you and you’ll smile back. Other students you don’t even know will smile and you’ll smile. If you can force a smile for strangers, do it for me. I’ll appreciate it.” She placed her hand on my cheek and smiled. “Come on, baby. Smile for Mommy.” She made a funny face and, against my wishes, I smiled. She kissed me on the lips and started to cry. “That's the first time I've seen you smile. It’s a beautiful smile. Mother’s beautiful daughter can smile.” I had never been called beautiful before, and no one in my memory had ever called me a daughter. That day, I learned just how powerful a smile could be. 46.The author wasn’t raised by her mother when she was a kid, was she? 47.What made the neighbors of the author’s grandma call the author “Grandma’s shadow”? 48.The author said, “My new house was a world away from Grandma’s little home.” What specific details in the passage tell us about this? Write at least two points. 49.Why did the mother tell the author that she was working hard for her? 50.How did the mother finally make the author smile when they talked one night? 51.What did the smile mean to the author and her mother?

To create true art, he believed one must be in harmony with nature. E. It allows people to express themselves in ways that words cannot. Art is a universal language that connects people from different cultures. 1 There are many forms of art, including painting, music, drama, pottery and folk art. Each form has its own unique charm. 2 For example, Carlos from Brazil thinks art is a form of self-expression and creativity. He uses art to share his ideas and feelings with others. Emma from France loves visiting art museums, as she believes art brings beauty into daily life. Tracy from South Africa regards art as part of her family tradition—making dolls has been passed down in her family for years. 3 He was a great landscape painter of the Song dynasty. His painting idea was deeply influenced by nature. He once told young artists, "You must study with a greater master than me—Nature." 4 He lived in mountains, observed the seasons, and felt nature with all his senses. His works are so vivid that people who see them often feel as if they are in the mountains themselves. 5 Whether it's a famous painting, a traditional shadow play, or a student's calligraphy work, art enriches our lives and helps us understand the world better.

Fan was so good at painting that young artists always asked him to teach them to paint. "You must study with a greater master than me," Fan replied. "Who is he? Where can we find him?" they asked curiously. Fan replied with a smile, "He is called Nature. He lives all around you." Fan painted with the idea of being in harmony with nature. He believed that if you wanted to understand nature, you had to touch it, smell it and listen to it. That was what he always did. He lived in mountains and forests, and watched the seasons change. However, many people thought he was strange. 译文： 范宽是宋代最伟大的山水画家之一。范宽的绘画技艺如此高超，以至于年轻的画家们总是请他教他们画画。 “你们必须向一位比我更伟大的大师学习，”范宽回答道。 “他是谁？我们在哪里能找到他？”他们好奇地问。 范宽微笑着回答：“他名叫自然，他就在你们身边。” 范宽的绘画理念是与自然和谐相处。他认为，如果你想理解自然，就必须触摸它、嗅闻它、聆听它。这正是他一直以来所做的。他住在山林里，观察四季的变化。然而，许多人认为他很奇怪。 E.写作范文（My favourite work of art） My favourite work of art is A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte, created by the French artist Seurat. It was painted from 1884 to 1886. The painting presents a scene of weekend life. Some people are sitting and chatting on the cool, green grass. Others are enjoying the summer view of the River Seine with small white boats on it. Dogs are running and children are playing. It's such a peaceful scene that I want to step into the painting and spend a day there. I love the relaxed life in it. Do you like it too?我最喜欢的艺术品是法国艺术家修拉创作的《大碗岛的星期日下午》。这幅画创作于1884年至1886年之间。它呈现了一个周末生活的场景。一些人坐在凉爽的绿草地上聊天，另一些人则欣赏着塞纳河的夏日景色，河面上还有小小的白色船只。狗在奔跑，孩子们在玩耍。这是一个如此平静的场景，我真想走进画里，在那里待一天。我喜欢画中那种悠闲的生活。你也喜欢它吗？ F.文化拓展（Art in different forms） Shadow plays are an old traditional folk art of China. They're like a very old form of cinema. The puppets appear as shadows on the screen thanks to a light. People move the puppets and tell stories. Chinese people have enjoyed this early form of entertainment for more than a thousand years.皮影戏是中国一种古老的传统民间艺术。它们就像一种非常古老的电影形式。多亏了一盏灯，木偶在屏幕上呈现出影子。人们操控木偶来讲故事。中国人已经享受这种早期的娱乐形式超过一千年了。 练一练 1.单项选择 1.

For years, this “fidgeting” (小动作) was seen as a(n) 40 that a person was not interested or was losing focus. But what if we’ve been wrong all along? Simple moves help A study from Harvard University asked two groups of students to listen to a difficult speech. One group could hold and press soft balls quietly while the other could not. The fidgeting group did much better on the following test. Dr. John Ratey explains that you can clear away mental noise and pay attention better by moving your body, 41 a little. This works because it increases a helpful brain chemical. Therefore, some researchers argue that for many, fidgeting isn’t a problem—it’s a way that allows the brain to 42 other things and focus on the main task. Wrong moves fail However, the benefits depend on the type of fidget. A study from the UK found that simple fidgeting, like moving your foot, could help you focus. But fidgeting with something 43 , like solving a puzzle, could injure your attention. It makes your brain work too hard. 44 , a brain scientist says the sound of a fidget toy can be a problem for others. This noise can make it hard for everyone in the room to do their work. 45 moves win It seems that the type of fidget extremely matters. The key is a fidget that doesn’t require thought. As for the noise? “The thoughtful fidgeter is the good fidgeter,” concludes Dr. Medina. “If you feel the need to fidget, you’d better choose a simple, silent one. Your tool shouldn’t become someone else’s problem.” 40．A．sign B．goal C．excuse D．reason 41．A．especially B．hardly C．first D．even 42．A．deal with B．get rid of C．run into D．go over 43．A．different B．interesting C．difficult D．easy 44．A．What’s more B．In fact C．For example D．As a result 45．A．Quick B．Loud C．Hard D．Smart 【答案】40．A 41．D 42．B 43．C 44．A 45．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了小动作对人们的影响，并指出简单的小动作有助于集中注意力，而复杂的小动作则可能分散注意力。 40．句意：多年来，这种“坐立不安”被视为一个人不感兴趣或注意力不集中的标志。 sign标志；goal目标；excuse借口；reason原因。根据“a person was not interested or was losing focus”可知，坐立不安被视为一个人不感兴趣或注意力不集中的标志。故选A。 41．句意：约翰·拉特博士解释说，你甚至可以通过轻微地移动身体来清除精神噪音，更好地集中注意力。 especially尤其；hardly几乎不；first首先；even甚至。根据“you can clear away mental noise and pay attention better by moving your body, …a little”可知，甚至可以通过轻微地移动身体来清除精神噪音，更好地集中注意力，此处表示递进关系，故用even。故选D。 42．句意：因此，一些研究人员认为，对许多人来说，坐立不安并不是一个问题——它是一种让大脑摆脱其他事情，专注于主要任务的方式。 deal with处理；get rid of摆脱；run into撞上；go over复习。根据“it’s a way that allows the brain to …other things and focus on the main task”可知，坐立不安是一种让大脑摆脱其他事情，专注于主要任务的方式。故选B。 43．句意：但是，摆弄一些困难的东西，比如解谜题，可能会分散你的注意力。 different不同的；interesting有趣的；difficult困难的；easy容易的。根据“could injure your attention”可知，摆弄一些困难的东西会分散你的注意力。故选C。 44．句意：此外，一位脑科学家说，摆弄玩具的声音对其他人来说可能是一个问题。 What’s more此外；In fact事实上；For example例如；As a result结果。根据“a brain scientist says the sound of a fidget toy can be a problem for others”可知，此处是进一步说明摆弄玩具的弊端，用“What’s more”符合语境。故选A。 45．句意：聪明的小动作获胜。 Quick快的；Loud大声的；Hard困难的；Smart聪明的。根据“It seems that the type of fidget extremely matters.

Grandma was always graceful. She spoke softly and walked slowly with her hands behind her back. I copied her every move, and our neighbors called me her shadow. When I was thirteen, I moved to California to live with my mother. My new house was a world away from Grandma’s little home. In Arkansas, we listened to the news and fun radio shows. My grandma seldom had visitors. Even when she did have visitors, those elderly friends of hers were well-behaved, just like my grandma. In California, my mother played loud music on a record player. She wore lipstick (口红) and rouge (胭脂).The house was often filled with the laughter and loud talking of her guests, who kept rushing in and out. I clearly didn’t fit in. I walked around my room like Grandma—with my hands behind my back. My mother watched me for two weeks. Then, one night, she sat me down. “Maya,” she said. “I know you don't like me because I am not like your grandma. I am not. But I am your mother and I am working hard to keep this roof over your head and to take care of you. When you go to school, the teacher will smile at you and you’ll smile back. Other students you don’t even know will smile and you’ll smile. If you can force a smile for strangers, do it for me. I’ll appreciate it.” She placed her hand on my cheek and smiled. “Come on, baby. Smile for Mommy.” She made a funny face and, against my wishes, I smiled. She kissed me on the lips and started to cry. “That's the first time I've seen you smile. It’s a beautiful smile. Mother’s beautiful daughter can smile.” I had never been called beautiful before, and no one in my memory had ever called me a daughter. That day, I learned just how powerful a smile could be. 46．The author wasn’t raised by her mother when she was a kid, was she? 47．What made the neighbors of the author’s grandma call the author “Grandma’s shadow”? 48．The author said, “My new house was a world away from Grandma’s little home.” What specific details in the passage tell us about this?

Secondly, she learned the power of a smile. ②Firstly, she was deeply moved to see her daughter smile for the first time.
