She was amazed by plenty of wonderful ancient calligraphy works on show. To her eyes, those pieces of writing looked like beautiful pictures. As soon as she got home, she decided to have a try herself. She will never forget her first experience with a writing brush. Practising calligraphy needs lots of attention. At the very beginning, that seemed impossible for her. She could hardly sit still for more than a few minutes. But step by step, she learnt to focus and took pleasure in better-looking works. Calligraphy helped her become more patient and focused. While practising, she has also known more about Chinese characters. They developed from drawings into today’s forms over thousands of years. Calligraphy is an artistic form of Chinese characters, which wins high praise at home and abroad. Different writing styles have their own special beauty. Now calligraphy has become one of her favourite hobbies to relax. When she writes, her breath slows down and her mind turns quiet. Whenever she feels down or under pressure, she picks up her brush. Practising calligraphy always makes her feel much better. During Spring Festival, she can even write Spring Festival couplets for her own family, and she takes great pride in that. 39．Where did Sandy’s love for calligraphy start?

The five main styles are seal script, clerical script, regular script, running script, and cursive script. Seal script is the oldest style, with round and even strokes. It was used in ancient inscriptions on bones and bronze vessels. Clerical script has flat and wide strokes. It was developed during the Han Dynasty and is known for its simplicity and elegance. Regular script is the most common style today. It is clear and orderly, making it easy for beginners to learn. Many textbooks use this style. Running script is a semi-cursive style. It is more flowing than regular script but still readable. Wang Xizhi’s “Preface to the Orchid Pavilion” is a masterpiece of this style. Cursive script is highly free and abstract. Strokes are connected and simplified, making it difficult to read but very expressive. It is often compared to modern art. 44．A．根据短文内容，完成表格。 Style Features Time/Origin Example/Famous Work Seal script Clerical script Running script B．根据短文内容，用完整的句子回答下列问题。 45．Which style is most common today and why? 46．What makes cursive script different from the other styles? 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 《Unit 6 The art of the brush Reading同步练习》参考答案 题号 39 40 41 42 43 答案 A B B C B 1．stroke 2．appear 3．doorway 4．writing 5．still 6．pleasure 7．character 8．breath 9．pressure 10．pride 11．be pleased with 12．Spring Festival couplets 13．look like 14．right away 15．sit still 16．take pleasure in 17．at home and abroad 18．slow down 19．feel down 20．under pressure 21．travelling 【详解】句意：在旅行时，我们必须了解一些当地文化吗？While引导时间状语从句，当主语与主句主语一致且谓语含be动词时，可省略主语和be动词，此处“While travelling”相当于“While we are travelling”，故用现在分词形式travelling。 22．disliked 【详解】句意：如果你告诉图书管理员你以前读过什么书，以及你喜欢或者不喜欢书中的哪些地方，他们就会给你推荐一些可以试着读一读的书。or是并列连词，前后时态要保持一致。 前面是liked（like的过去式），所以括号里的dislike也要变成过去式disliked。 23．gradually 【详解】句意：随着年龄增长，我们会逐渐学会为自己的决定和行为负责。空处修饰动词learn，需要使用副词；gradual是形容词，副词形式为gradually，故填gradually。 24．undoubtedly 【详解】句意：我们应当明白，真正的智慧不在于从不犯错，而在于勇敢地从错误中学习。这无疑是终身成长的关键。空格处修饰整句话，需要使用副词；doubt对应的副词undoubtedly意为“毫无疑问、无疑”，符合语境。 25．pleasure 【详解】句意：如今许多年轻人仍然从练习中国传统书法中获得极大的乐趣。固定搭配take great pleasure in doing sth.表示“从做某事中获得极大乐趣”，great为形容词，后接名词，please是动词“使高兴”，名词形式pleasure意为“乐趣”。 26． Over time focus took pleasure in 【详解】原句中“随着时间的推移”、“专注”和“获得了乐趣”是关键词，表示“随着时间的推移”的短语是over time。focus表示“专注”，learn to do sth.意为“学会做某事”，to后面接动词原形。take pleasure in doing sth.表示“从做某事中获得乐趣”，本句为一般过去时，take要变为过去式took。pleasure是名词，意为“快乐、乐趣”，故填Over；time；focus；took；pleasure；in。 27． hardly sit still 【详解】原句中“几乎无法坐着不动”是关键词，表示“几乎不”的单词是hardly，情态动词could后接动词原形，sit表示“坐”，sit still意为“坐着不动”。故填hardly；sit；still。 28． amazed pieces calligraphy 【详解】原句中“惊讶地”和“书法作品”是关键词，表示“惊讶地”可用短语be amazed to do sth.，amazed在此处为形容词，修饰人的感受。“书法作品”对应短语pieces of calligraphy，so many后要接可数名词复数，piece需变为复数pieces。故填amazed；pieces；calligraphy。 29． Practising requires concentration back then impossible 【详解】原句中“练习”，“需要”，“专注”，“在那时”，“不可能”是关键词，动名词Practising意为“练习”，放在句首首字母大写，作句子主语。require意为“需要”，动名词作主语，谓语动词用第三人称单数requires。concentration意为“专注”，a lot of后接名词。固定短语：back then意为“在那时”。seem是系动词，后接形容词作表语，impossible意为“不可能的”。 30． try it myself 【详解】原句中“亲自试一试”是关键词，try it myself意为“亲自试一试”。固定搭配：decide to do sth.表示“决定做某事”，不定式to后接动词原形。 31．pride 【详解】原句中“为……感到自豪”是关键词，表示“为……感到自豪”的短语是take pride in。故填pride。 32． breathe characters 【详解】原句中“保持平静的呼吸”和“汉字”是关键词，“呼吸”在这里需要用动词breathe，Please后接动词原形；“汉字”对应的单词是characters，表示一类事物用复数。因此①应填breathe；②应填characters。 33． Under pressure 【详解】原句中“在压力之下”是关键词。表示“在压力之下”使用固定短语under pressure，under为介词，意为“在……之下”，置于句首首字母大写；pressure为不可数名词，意为“压力”，故填Under；pressure。 34．am crazy about 35．took up 36．concentrate on 37．made progress 38．from time to time 【导语】本文介绍了作者酷爱绘画、学习水彩创作，通过长期练习取得进步，并以此调剂学习生活的个人经历。 【详解】34．句意：我对此着迷，放学后还会在工作室里花上好几个小时。根据前文“favorite hobbies”及后文“spend hours”可知，作者对绘画很着迷。be crazy about意为“对……着迷”，主语是I，时态为一般现在时，be动词应变为am。 35．句意：去年，在美术老师的帮助下，我开始学习水彩画。根据时间状语“Last year”可知，句子时态为一般过去时。根据“I…watercolor painting with the help of my art teacher”及备选词可知，此处表示去年在老师帮助下开始从事（take up）水彩画，take的过去式为took。 36．句意：她让我专注于花朵和鸟儿的细节。根据“the details of the flowers and birds”及备选词可知，此处指专注于（concentrate on）花朵和鸟儿的细节。tell sb. to do sth.意为“告诉某人做某事”，因此空处需填动词原形。 37．句意：经过数月的练习，我取得了进步，甚至还赢得了一个小奖。 根据“After months of practice”和“won a small prize”可知，作者取得了进步（make progress）。此处叙述过去的事情，用一般过去时，make变为made。 38．句意：现在我偶尔练习，以放松心情，摆脱繁忙的学习。该短语作频率状语修饰动词practice，应用from time to time，意为“偶尔”。 39．A 40．B 41．B 42．C 43．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Sandy在父亲的带领下参观艺术博物馆后爱上书法的故事。 【详解】39．第一段第一句“Sandy’s love of calligraphy started when her father took her to an art museum.”说明，Sandy对书法的热爱始于父亲带她去的艺术博物馆。 40．第二段第三句“At the very beginning, that seemed impossible for her.
