Section Ⅲ　　Learning About Language [课时跟踪检测] Ⅰ.阅读理解 　　Chinese painting, also known as the traditional national painting, one of the traditional paintings with a long history, has its unique and independent system.Using brushes, ink, and Chinese pigments (天然颜料), a painting is drawn on a special kind of paper (Xuan paper) or silk.The traditional subjects are figures, landscapes, flowers and birds. In comparison with Western painting, Chinese painting has its own artistic characteristics.After careful study of an object, a painter can discover the rules of its structure, and then produce it through the mind’s eye.It is not merely a simple copy; it combines the object with the artistic concept of the producer, turning a natural image into an “artistic image”.The artwork reflects the artist’s feelings and personality, achieving the effect of “being alike not only in appearance, but also in spirit”.Not all elements are to be drawn on the paper, leaving ample space for imagination.The use of lines is important in Chinese painting.Clear, swift, sharp and changeable lines are combined with the push, point and press of the brush and ink to show the quality of the object and variations of tone (色调).Ancient Chinese artists listed 18 different ways of drawing lines with the brush in figure painting.Different ways of creating lines are used when painting a landscape, flowers⁃and⁃birds, clouds, and bamboo. Traditional Chinese painting and calligraphy are different branches of art stemming (起源) from the same origin.They use the same kind of tools and all the lines used in painting are variations of the points and lines of calligraphy.Though they are different artistic forms, they are closely linked in terms of their expression of thoughts and feelings.They influence each other to create another artistic feature. 语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国画作为传统国画的特点,以及传统绘画与书法的异同点。 1.Which of the following words can describe the common subjects of traditional Chinese painting? A.Valuable.　　　　　　 B.Independent. C.Special. D.Natural. 解析:选D　细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句可知,中国画传统的题材是人物、风景和花鸟。因此,可以用“自然的”一词描述中国画的共同主题。 2.The writer believes that a traditional Chinese painter’s picture 　　　　.  A.reflects social problems of his times B.describes mainly a natural image C.expresses his thoughts D.tells a true story 解析:选C　推理判断题。根据第二段中的“The artwork reflects the artist’s feelings and personality”可知,作品能表现艺术家的情感和个性,达到不仅形似而且神似的效果。因此,一个中国传统画家的画能表达画家的思想。 3.It can be inferred that a traditional Chinese painter spent much time 　　　　.  A.traveling B.learning to draw lines C.reading D.studying calligraphy before drawing 解析:选B　推理判断题。根据第二段中的“The use of lines is important in Chinese painting.”及本段最后两句可知,在中国画中线条的使用很重要。由此可以推断,一位传统的中国画家会花很多时间学习画线条。 4.What do painting and calligraphy have in common? A.Using the similar techniques. B.Starting from the same period. C.Belonging to the same artistic form. D.Covering the same themes. 解析:选A　细节理解题。根据最后一段第二句可知,绘画和书法使用同样的工具,绘画中使用的所有线条都是书法中的点和线的变化。由此可知,绘画和书法使用类似的技法。 Ⅱ.完形填空 At the top of a three⁃story building, Sue and Johnsy had their art studio.

But now only five remain. When the last leaf falls, I must go, too.” Sue quickly dismissed it as nonsense and sought their neighbour, Mr. Behrman, a failed 　10　, who had spent four decades longing to paint a masterpiece. Sue told him about Johnsy’s 　11　 to slip away like the leaves. Behrman couldn’t believe anyone would think they’d 　12　 as leaves dropped from a vine. They looked outside and saw just one 　13　 leaf while a cold rain was falling, mixed with snow.  The next morning, Johnsy woke and looked out. One leaf remained on the vine, 　14　 holding on in the wind and rain. She 　15　, “It will fall today. And I will die with it.” Yet the 　16　 remained another day! Johnsy gazed at it for long. “Sue,” said Johnsy. “It is wrong to want to die.” Then she asked for some food. In the afternoon, the doctor visited, saying if well 　17　, she would recover.  The next day, Sue shared a sad truth. Mr. Behrman 　18　 from pneumonia after only two days. The last ivy leaf on the wall was Behrman’s 　19　, painted on the night when the last leaf fell.  语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。身患肺炎的Johnsy(约翰西)对生命失去了希望,认为窗外的最后一片树叶凋零之后自己也会死去。但是她的朋友Sue(苏)请求画家Behrman (贝曼)画了一片叶子,并把它挂在外面的树上,使得约翰西重燃对生活的希望,但是画家却因为肺炎不幸去世。 5.A.tears　　　　　　 B.despair C.tension D.disguise 解析:选B　由上文“In November, Johnsy fell ill with pneumonia (肺炎) and lay, barely moving, in bed, staring at a blank wall in”以及下文“When the last leaf falls, I must go, too.”可知,约翰西得了肺炎病倒在床,几乎不能动,认为自己很快就会死去。此处指约翰西很绝望。 6.A.hire B.entrust C.assist D.replace 解析:选C　由下文“her in thinking more hopefully about life”可知,医生建议苏去帮助约翰西,让她重燃对生活的希望。 7.A.scared B.energetic C.joyful D.passive 解析:选C　由上文“The doctor advised Sue to 　　　　her in thinking more hopefully about life.”提到的医生建议苏去帮助约翰西重燃对生活的希望可知,此处指苏开始画画,从而让约翰西高兴点。  8.A.Instead B.Therefore C.Besides D.Meanwhile 解析:选A　由上文“Johnsy’s eyes were not on her.”以及下文“she stared ...counted”可知,约翰西的眼睛不在苏身上,反而盯着窗外,数着数。 9.A.wept B.added C.responded D.continued 解析:选C　由上文“‘What is that?’ asked Sue.”可知,苏问她问题,所以约翰西在回答苏的问题。 10.A.colleague B.chairman C.painter D.physician 解析:选C　由下文“who had spent four decades longing to paint a masterpiece”可知,贝曼先生是一位画家。 11.A.desire B.complaint C.memory D.operation 解析:选A　由上文“When the last leaf falls, I must go, too”可知,约翰西因肺炎卧病在床,认为自己的生命会像树叶一样凋零,即死去。 12.A.scare B.die C.faint D.retire 解析:选B　由上文“When the last leaf falls, I must go, too”和下文“It will fall today.
