Perhaps the best way 1 (understand) Western art is to look at the develop. ment of Western painting over the centuries. During the Middle Ages, the purpose 2 West ern art was to teach people about Christianity. Thus, artists were not interested in 3 (paint) realistic scenes. This began to change in the 13th century with Giotto di Bondone, whose paintings 4 (show) real people in a real environment. Next came the Renaissance, when new ideas and values gradually replaced old 5 (one) from the Middle Ages. Painters adopted a more humanistic attitude to life,6 (use) perspective and oil paints. The emphasis 7 (increasing) shifted from religious themes to people and the world around us. After the invention of photography, paintings were no longer needed 8 (preserve) what people and the world looked like. As a result. Impressionism emerged in France. The name of this new movement came from 9 painting by Claude Monet called Impression, Sunrise. In this work, Monet's aim was to convey the light and movement in the scene. Picasso, one of the painters of Modern Art, tried to analyse the shapes 10 existed in the natural world but in a new way, with Cubism. 1、 阅读理解 A Silvano Lattanzi, the master of made-in-Italy shoemaking, was totally conquered by a painting hung in the entrance hall of the very modern Rich Gate, the luxury district in Shanghai. The painting, before which he knelt down to show his admiration, is the Rich Gate Rose painted by Liu Linghua, who’s known as the “Chinese Van Gogh”. It was in May 2016 that Lattanzi first met Liu Linghua who was working on his 15-square-meter great piece. Lattanzi, from the country where Renaissance began, saw the painting accidentally and was immediately impressed by its beauty. He told others that he never imagined that Western oil-painting techniques could be developed so well by a Chinese and that this was the best painting he had ever seen. In the eyes of Westerners, Lattanzi is a great master of shoemaking, fashion and arts. His admiration for the Rich Gate Rose well shows the high level of Liu’s painting. Ever since this, the two art masters of different nationalities, different ages and different cultural backgrounds have forged a profound friendship. When Lattanzi came back to China six months later with the pair of shoes he made for Liu, he insisted on delivering the shoes to Liu himself. The two friends met again at the Rich Gate and Liu Linghua presented an embroidery (刺绣) of his master work The Drunken Beauty in return. Liu expressed repeatedly that his works should be explained by painting and not the words of compliments. He does not care about the titles, though he is on a par with the greatest painters. A leading light or a grand master of art, Liu pays little attention to it. Liu thinks actions are more important than words. 1．What can we know from the passage? A．Lattanzi specially came to see the painting. B．Lattanzi is best at oil painting in Europe. C．Liu presented an oil painting to Lattanzi in return. D．The Rich Gate Rose is an excellent oil painting. 2．What does Liu think of the compliments on his paintings? A．He thinks his works are worthy of the compliments. B．He cares much about the compliments. C．He thinks the words can encourage him all the time. D．He thinks the words can’t well explain his works. 3．The underlined phrase “on a par with” in the last paragraph roughly means________. A．no better than B．different from C．as good/important as D．ahead of 4．What’s the best title for this passage? A．Chinese Van Gogh B．Friendship between Masters C．Western Oil Painting D．A Shoemaking Master B Art has always been an integral part of human society, serving a multitude of purposes and reflecting the cultural, social, and emotional spectrum of human experiences. It is not merely a form of aesthetic pleasure but a powerful tool for expression, communication, and even social change. Firstly, art acts as a mirror of society, capturing the essence of the times in which it is created. It reflects the values, beliefs, and norms of a particular era, providing future generations with a visual and emotional record of the past. For example, the Renaissance paintings of the 14th to 17th centuries not only showcased the artistic prowess of the time but also mirrored the intellectual and cultural rebirth of Europe. Secondly, art is a form of communication that transcends language barriers. It allows individuals from different linguistic backgrounds to connect on a deeper level, understanding and empathizing with the emotions and ideas conveyed through visual, auditory, or performance mediums. This universality is one of the reasons why art has the power to bridge cultural divides and foster global understanding. Thirdly, art is a catalyst for creativity and innovation. It encourages individuals to think outside the box and challenge conventional wisdom. The process of creating art stimulates the imagination and can lead to breakthroughs in various fields, from science to business. Moreover, the appreciation of art can inspire new ways of thinking and problem-solving. However, some argue that the role of art in society is diminishing due to the increasing dominance of technology and commercial interests. Critics claim that the focus on mass-produced entertainment and consumerism has led to a decline in the appreciation of fine arts and the marginalization of artists. In conclusion, art continues to be a vital force for self-expression, cultural preservation, and intellectual exploration, and it is up to society to ensure that this continues to be the case. 5．What is one of the primary functions of art according to the article? A．To act as a mirror reflecting societal values. B．To provide entertainment for mass audiences. C．To serve as a tool for scientific research. D．To promote commercial interests. 6．How does art facilitate global understanding? A．By teaching different languages. B．By promoting mass consumerism. C．By transcending language barriers. D．By focusing on local cultural norms. 7．What impact can the creation of art have on other fields? A．It can hinder scientific advancements. B．It can lead to breakthroughs in various fields. C．It can marginalize the importance of art. D．It can decrease the value of commercial interests. 8．What is a concern raised by critics regarding the role of art in society? A．The focus on technology is enhancing the role of art. B．The appreciation of fine arts is increasing due to consumerism. C．The role of art has always been stable and unchanging. D．The dominance of technology and commercial interests may diminish the role of art. 七选五 Why people collect art? Many people through history have gone to great lengths to collect art. But what motivates these collectors? One popular explanation for collecting art is that they can have financial gain. Some resell artworks, earning enormous profit. 1 . Immorally, some “collectors” purchase art as a form of money laundering (洗钱), since it is far easier to move art than cash between countries without examination. 2 . For them, art is important for other reasons. The best way to understand the underlying drive of art collecting is as a means of creating and strengthening social bonds, and as a way for collectors to communicate within these new networks. Not only are collectors fond of creating social links, but they are also motivated by the messages they can send once these social networks are created. We all know art is a powerful way for the artist to express thoughts and feelings. 3 . Displaying art can send a message about who the collector really is—at least who he sees himself as. 4 . Through the collections, collectors convey messages not just about themselves, but about the world as a whole. For example, the kid with the shoebox made of bird feathers might show others her collection not just to make friends, but to convince them of the importance of protecting endangered species. People collect art for various reasons. 5 . A．Some gain artworks in an illegal way B．But most collectors think little of profit C．Artworks preserve the qualities of their makers D．No doubt art collecting is an addiction hard to overcome E．Some get large tax reductions for donating art to museums F．It also serves as an effective way for collectors to express themselves G．Other art collectors see their collections as having a broader power 2、 思维提升-观点分享 学校英语俱乐部正在举办一场名为“Journey Through Western Art”的微型艺术沙龙。请同桌两人一组，结合课文梳理出的四个历史时期（Middle Ages, Renaissance, Impressionism, Modern Art），交流你最喜欢的西方绘画时期及理由。 【讨论要点】 1.回顾并概括该时期的主要特征或背后的动因（如：宗教影响、人文主义、摄影术的发明等）。 2.评价该时期的绘画风格，并说明它为何吸引你。 3.尝试回答课文最后的终极问题：“在你看来，什么是艺术？” 3、 思维提升-书面表达 假设你是校英文报艺术专栏的编辑，请结合课文《西方绘画简史》的内容，写一篇短文向同学们介绍西方绘画的发展，并分享你个人的审美偏好。 请同学们根据自己的实际情况，选择A层或B层完成。 ▶ A层作业（基础篇）：语境应用与微写作 任务要求：请根据括号内的中文提示或句型要求，使用本课学过的目标词汇和短语，将这篇短文补充完整。 As we know, 1. ________________________ (给出一个精确的定义是困难的：It is + adj + to do 句型; precise) of Western art.

Perhaps the best way 1 (understand) Western art is to look at the develop. ment of Western painting over the centuries. During the Middle Ages, the purpose 2 West ern art was to teach people about Christianity. Thus, artists were not interested in 3 (paint) realistic scenes. This began to change in the 13th century with Giotto di Bondone, whose paintings 4 (show) real people in a real environment. Next came the Renaissance, when new ideas and values gradually replaced old 5 (one) from the Middle Ages. Painters adopted a more humanistic attitude to life,6 (use) perspective and oil paints. The emphasis 7 (increasing) shifted from religious themes to people and the world around us. After the invention of photography, paintings were no longer needed 8 (preserve) what people and the world looked like. As a result. Impressionism emerged in France. The name of this new movement came from 9 painting by Claude Monet called Impression, Sunrise. In this work, Monet's aim was to convey the light and movement in the scene. Picasso, one of the painters of Modern Art, tried to analyse the shapes 10 existed in the natural world but in a new way, with Cubism. 【答案】1.to understand 2.of 3.painting 4.showed 5.ones 6.using 7.increasingly 8.to preserve 9the 10.which/ that 1、 阅读理解 A Silvano Lattanzi, the master of made-in-Italy shoemaking, was totally conquered by a painting hung in the entrance hall of the very modern Rich Gate, the luxury district in Shanghai. The painting, before which he knelt down to show his admiration, is the Rich Gate Rose painted by Liu Linghua, who’s known as the “Chinese Van Gogh”. It was in May 2016 that Lattanzi first met Liu Linghua who was working on his 15-square-meter great piece. Lattanzi, from the country where Renaissance began, saw the painting accidentally and was immediately impressed by its beauty. He told others that he never imagined that Western oil-painting techniques could be developed so well by a Chinese and that this was the best painting he had ever seen. In the eyes of Westerners, Lattanzi is a great master of shoemaking, fashion and arts. His admiration for the Rich Gate Rose well shows the high level of Liu’s painting. Ever since this, the two art masters of different nationalities, different ages and different cultural backgrounds have forged a profound friendship. When Lattanzi came back to China six months later with the pair of shoes he made for Liu, he insisted on delivering the shoes to Liu himself. The two friends met again at the Rich Gate and Liu Linghua presented an embroidery (刺绣) of his master work The Drunken Beauty in return. Liu expressed repeatedly that his works should be explained by painting and not the words of compliments. He does not care about the titles, though he is on a par with the greatest painters. A leading light or a grand master of art, Liu pays little attention to it. Liu thinks actions are more important than words. 1．What can we know from the passage? A．Lattanzi specially came to see the painting. B．Lattanzi is best at oil painting in Europe. C．Liu presented an oil painting to Lattanzi in return. D．The Rich Gate Rose is an excellent oil painting. 2．What does Liu think of the compliments on his paintings? A．He thinks his works are worthy of the compliments. B．He cares much about the compliments. C．He thinks the words can encourage him all the time. D．He thinks the words can’t well explain his works. 3．The underlined phrase “on a par with” in the last paragraph roughly means________. A．no better than B．different from C．as good/important as D．ahead of 4．What’s the best title for this passage? A．Chinese Van Gogh B．Friendship between Masters C．Western Oil Painting D．A Shoemaking Master 【答案】1．D 2．D 3．C 4．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了意大利制鞋大师Silvano Lattanzi与中国画家刘凌华因一幅油画《Rich Gate Rose》而结缘，并建立了深厚友谊的故事，展现了两位艺术大师之间的相互欣赏与尊重。 1．细节理解题。根据第三段“He told others that he never imagined that Western oil-painting techniques could be developed so well by a Chinese and that this was the best painting he had ever seen. (他告诉别人，他从未想过西方的油画技巧能被一个中国人发展得如此之好，这是他见过的最好的画。)”可知，Lattanzi认为《Rich Gate Rose》这幅油画非常出色，是见过的最好的画。故选D项。 2．细节理解题。根据最后一段“Liu expressed repeatedly that his works should be explained by painting and not the words of compliments. (刘凌华反复表示，他的作品应该通过绘画本身来解释，而不是通过赞美之词。)”可知，刘凌华认为赞美之词不能很好地解释他的作品。故选D项。 3．词句猜测题。根据最后一段“He does not care about the titles, though he is on a par with the greatest painters. (他不在乎头衔，尽管他 _____ 最伟大的画家)”可知，刘凌华不在乎头衔，尽管他可以与最伟大的画家相提并论。由此可知，on a par with意为“与……一样好/重要”。故选C项。 4．主旨大意题。根据第四段“Ever since this, the two art masters of different nationalities, different ages and different cultural backgrounds have forged a profound friendship. (从那以后，这两位不同国籍、不同年龄、不同文化背景的艺术大师结下了深厚的友谊。)”及全文内容可知，文章主要讲述了意大利制鞋大师Silvano Lattanzi与中国画家刘凌华因一幅油画而结缘，并建立了深厚友谊的故事。因此，B项“大师之间的友谊”最符合文章主旨，适合作标题。故选B项。 B Art has always been an integral part of human society, serving a multitude of purposes and reflecting the cultural, social, and emotional spectrum of human experiences. It is not merely a form of aesthetic pleasure but a powerful tool for expression, communication, and even social change. Firstly, art acts as a mirror of society, capturing the essence of the times in which it is created. It reflects the values, beliefs, and norms of a particular era, providing future generations with a visual and emotional record of the past. For example, the Renaissance paintings of the 14th to 17th centuries not only showcased the artistic prowess of the time but also mirrored the intellectual and cultural rebirth of Europe. Secondly, art is a form of communication that transcends language barriers. It allows individuals from different linguistic backgrounds to connect on a deeper level, understanding and empathizing with the emotions and ideas conveyed through visual, auditory, or performance mediums. This universality is one of the reasons why art has the power to bridge cultural divides and foster global understanding. Thirdly, art is a catalyst for creativity and innovation. It encourages individuals to think outside the box and challenge conventional wisdom. The process of creating art stimulates the imagination and can lead to breakthroughs in various fields, from science to business. Moreover, the appreciation of art can inspire new ways of thinking and problem-solving. However, some argue that the role of art in society is diminishing due to the increasing dominance of technology and commercial interests. Critics claim that the focus on mass-produced entertainment and consumerism has led to a decline in the appreciation of fine arts and the marginalization of artists. In conclusion, art continues to be a vital force for self-expression, cultural preservation, and intellectual exploration, and it is up to society to ensure that this continues to be the case. 5．What is one of the primary functions of art according to the article? A．To act as a mirror reflecting societal values. B．To provide entertainment for mass audiences. C．To serve as a tool for scientific research. D．To promote commercial interests. 6．How does art facilitate global understanding? A．By teaching different languages. B．By promoting mass consumerism. C．By transcending language barriers. D．By focusing on local cultural norms. 7．What impact can the creation of art have on other fields? A．It can hinder scientific advancements. B．It can lead to breakthroughs in various fields. C．It can marginalize the importance of art. D．It can decrease the value of commercial interests. 8．What is a concern raised by critics regarding the role of art in society? A．The focus on technology is enhancing the role of art. B．The appreciation of fine arts is increasing due to consumerism. C．The role of art has always been stable and unchanging. D．The dominance of technology and commercial interests may diminish the role of art. 【答案】5．A 6．C 7．B 8．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章阐述了艺术作为社会不可或缺的部分，在表达情感、沟通交流及促进创新等方面的作用，同时指出技术与商业对艺术地位的挑战，强调维护艺术价值的重要性。 5．细节理解题。由文章第二段“Firstly, art acts as a mirror to society, capturing the essence of the times in which it is created. It reflects the values, beliefs, and norms of a particular era, providing future generations with a visual and emotional record of the past.(首先，艺术是社会的一面镜子，捕捉它所创造的时代的本质。它反映了特定时代的价值观、信仰和规范，为后代提供了对过去的视觉和情感记录。)”可知，艺术的一个主要功能是作为一面镜子反映社会的价值观。故选A。 6．细节理解题。根据第三段“Secondly, art is a form of communication that transcends language barriers. It allows individuals from different linguistic backgrounds to connect on a deeper level, understanding and empathizing with the emotions and ideas conveyed through visual, auditory, or performance mediums.(其次，艺术是一种超越语言障碍的交流形式。它允许来自不同语言背景的人在更深层次上联系起来，理解和同情通过视觉、听觉或表演媒介传达的情感和想法。)”可知，艺术通过超越语言障碍促进全球理解。故选C。 7．细节理解题。根据第四段“The process of creating art stimulates the imagination and can lead to breakthroughs in various fields, from science to business. Moreover, the appreciation of art can inspire new ways of thinking and problem-solving.(创造艺术的过程激发想象力，并能在从科学到商业的各个领域取得突破。此外，艺术欣赏可以激发新的思维和解决问题的方式。)”可知，艺术创作能够对其他领域产生影响，带来各种领域的突破。故选B。 8．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“However, some argue that the role of art in society is diminishing due to the increasing dominance of technology and commercial interests. Critics claim that the focus on mass-produced entertainment and consumerism has led to a decline in the appreciation for fine arts and the marginalization of artists.(然而，一些人认为，由于技术和商业利益的日益主导，艺术在社会中的作用正在减弱。批评家声称，对大规模生产的娱乐和消费主义的关注导致了对美术欣赏的下降和艺术家的边缘化。)”可知，批评者担忧技术的主导地位和商业利益可能会削弱艺术在社会中的作用。故选D。 七选五 Why people collect art? Many people through history have gone to great lengths to collect art. But what motivates these collectors? One popular explanation for collecting art is that they can have financial gain. Some resell artworks, earning enormous profit. 1 . Immorally, some “collectors” purchase art as a form of money laundering (洗钱), since it is far easier to move art than cash between countries without examination. 2 . For them, art is important for other reasons. The best way to understand the underlying drive of art collecting is as a means of creating and strengthening social bonds, and as a way for collectors to communicate within these new networks. Not only are collectors fond of creating social links, but they are also motivated by the messages they can send once these social networks are created. We all know art is a powerful way for the artist to express thoughts and feelings. 3 . Displaying art can send a message about who the collector really is—at least who he sees himself as. 4 . Through the collections, collectors convey messages not just about themselves, but about the world as a whole. For example, the kid with the shoebox made of bird feathers might show others her collection not just to make friends, but to convince them of the importance of protecting endangered species. People collect art for various reasons. 5 . A．Some gain artworks in an illegal way B．But most collectors think little of profit C．Artworks preserve the qualities of their makers D．No doubt art collecting is an addiction hard to overcome E．Some get large tax reductions for donating art to museums F．It also serves as an effective way for collectors to express themselves G．Other art collectors see their collections as having a broader power 1．E 2．B 3．F 4．G 5．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，围绕“人们为何收藏艺术品”这一核心问题展开，分析了收藏艺术品的多重动机，包括经济利益、构建社交联结、自我表达以及借助藏品传递更宏观的理念等，最终指出艺术品收藏是一种难以戒除的执念。 1．根据上文“One popular explanation for collecting art is that they can have financial gain. Some resell artworks, earning enormous profit.(收藏艺术品的一个常见原因是可以获得经济收益，一些人转售艺术品赚取巨额利润)”以及下文“Immorally, some “collectors” purchase art as a form of money laundering (洗钱), since it is far easier to move art than cash between countries without examination.(不道德的是，一些所谓的 “收藏者” 会将购买艺术品当作洗钱的手段，因为艺术品跨国运输远比现金更易避开查验)”可知，空格处需承接“经济收益”的话题，补充收藏艺术品获得经济利益的另一合法方式，与后文的非法牟利形成对应。E选项“Some get large tax reductions for donating art to museums(一些人因向博物馆捐赠艺术品获得大幅减税)”紧扣“经济利益”核心，是收藏艺术品的合法收益形式，与前文的转售获利、后文的洗钱牟利形成并列，符合语境。故选E项。 2．根据下文“For them, art is important for other reasons. The best way to understand the underlying drive of art collecting is as a means of creating and strengthening social bonds, and as a way for collectors to communicate within these new networks.(对这些人而言，艺术的重要性源于其他缘由。理解艺术品收藏这一行为深层动机的最佳方式，便是将其视作建立并巩固社交联结的手段，同时也是收藏者在这些新的社交网络中实现沟通交流的途径)”可知，空格处需形成转折，指出大部分收藏者并非看重经济利益，引出后文的其他收藏动机。B选项“But most collectors think little of profit(但大多数收藏者并不看重利润)”以“But”转折，打破前文“经济收益”的单一动机，引出后文的社交联结等核心动机，符合语境。故选B项。 3．根据上文“We all know art is a powerful way for the artist to express thoughts and feelings.(我们都知道艺术是艺术家表达想法和情感的有力方式)”以及下文“Displaying art can send a message about who the collector really is—at least who he sees himself as.(展示艺术品能传递出收藏者的真实自我，至少是他心中的自己)”可知，空格处需承接前文，指出艺术不仅是艺术家的表达途径，也是收藏者的自我表达方式，实现从“艺术家表达”到“收藏者表达”的过渡。F选项“It also serves as an effective way for collectors to express themselves(它也是收藏者表达自我的有效方式)”中的“It”指代前文的“art”，以“also”实现衔接，点明收藏者可通过艺术表达自我，与后文的展示艺术品传递自我信息相呼应，符合语境。故选F项。 4．根据下文“Through the collections, collectors convey messages not just about themselves, but about the world as a whole. For example, the kid with the shoebox made of bird feathers might show others her collection not just to make friends, but to convince them of the importance of protecting endangered species.(通过藏品，收藏者不仅传递关于自我的信息，还传递关于整个世界的理念。比如，收藏鸟羽毛鞋盒的孩子展示藏品，不仅是为了交友，更是为了让他人认识到保护濒危物种的重要性)”可知，空格处需作为本段主旨句，点明部分收藏者认为藏品具有更广泛的影响力，能传递超越自我的宏观理念。G选项“Other art collectors see their collections as having a broader power(其他艺术品收藏者认为自己的藏品具有更广泛的力量)”精准概括本段核心，“broader power”对应后文的“convey messages about the world as a whole”，引出下文的具体例子，符合语境。故选G项。 5．根据上文“People collect art for various reasons.(人们收藏艺术品的原因多种多样)”可知，空格处需对全文内容进行总结，点明艺术品收藏的本质属性。D选项“No doubt art collecting is an addiction hard to overcome(毫无疑问，艺术品收藏是一种难以戒除的执念)”是对全文多重收藏动机的最终总结，无论出于经济、社交、自我表达还是传递理念，收藏艺术品最终都会成为收藏者难以割舍的执念，符合文章收尾的语境。故选D项。 2、 思维提升-观点分享 学校英语俱乐部正在举办一场名为“Journey Through Western Art”的微型艺术沙龙。请同桌两人一组，结合课文梳理出的四个历史时期（Middle Ages, Renaissance, Impressionism, Modern Art），交流你最喜欢的西方绘画时期及理由。 【讨论要点】 1.回顾并概括该时期的主要特征或背后的动因（如：宗教影响、人文主义、摄影术的发明等）。 2.评价该时期的绘画风格，并说明它为何吸引你。 3.尝试回答课文最后的终极问题：“在你看来，什么是艺术？” 【答案】 Hello! It is great to talk about art today. My favorite period is Impressionism (印象派). It emerged (出现) in the late 19th century. The painters made a big breakthrough (突破).

Looking back, the shift from traditional painting to Impressionism was a huge breakthrough. Before the 19th century, kings and people of high rank often wanted to purchase realistic paintings. However, after the invention of photography, Impressionism emerged. In particular, I love Impressionist paintings most. What sets them apart from traditional art is that they aim to convey the subjective impression of light and shadow. They show not just the outer world but the painters' inner emotions as well. In my opinion, art is not merely a record of reality, but a creative expression of the human soul. 1 / 7 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
