(2017·浙江卷)
Benjamin West,the father of American painting,showed his talent for art when he was only six years of age.But he did not know about brushes before a visitor told him he needed one.In those days,a brush was made from camel’s hair.There were no camels nearby.Benjamin decided that cat hair would work instead.He cut some fur from the family cat to make a brush.
The brush did not last long.Soon Benjamin needed more fur.Before long,the cat began to look ragged(蓬乱).His father said that the cat must be sick.Benjamin was forced to admit what he had been doing.
The cat’s lot was about to improve.That year,one of Benjamin’s cousins,Mr.Pennington,came to visit.He was impressed with Benjamin’s drawings.When he went home,he sent Benjamin a box of paint and some brushes.He also sent six engravings(版画) by an artist.These were the first pictures and first real paint and brushes Benjamin had ever seen.
In 1747,when Benjamin was nine years old,Mr.Pennington returned for another visit.He was amazed at what Benjamin had done with his gift.He asked Benjamin’s parents if he might take the boy back to Philadelphia for a visit.
In the city,Mr.Pennington gave Benjamin materials for creating oil paintings.The boy began a landscape(风景) painting.William Williams,a well-known painter,came to see him work.Williams was impressed with Benjamin and gave him two classic books on painting to take home.The books were long and dull.Benjamin could read only a little,having been a poor student.But he later said,“Those two books were my companions by day,and under my pillow at night.”While it is likely that he understood very little of the books,they were his introduction to classical paintings.The nine-year-old boy decided then that he would be an artist.

Have you ever come across a painting or work of art that just spoke to you?
Back in 1 school,I came across such a painting.It was the 2 just before my senior three year and I was taking painting classes at Ann Kim’s art studio.Mrs.Kim,as I still 3 her today,is a portrait artist and her eye-catching work has traveled the world.I was 4 an art collection to submit with my college applications—that is,the “summer school”.
It never really felt like school,though.I 5 every minute of those Saturdays at Mrs.Kim’s:the smell of oil paint that 6 me every time I opened the studio door 7 ,the classical music playing in the background,the 8 sound of the brush hitting the canvas(画布),and Mrs.Kim’s 9 on everything from paint colors to career goals.The whole 10 was kind of magical.
When I needed a break,I’d 11 around the studio and study Mrs.Kim’s paintings that 12 the bright walls and,of course,the portrait art she was 13 for.My favorite painting was a wounded soldier on the battlefield,crying and dashing to his enemies.I could 14 it for hours.Even the brush strokes(画笔描边) 15 so much emotion.It was frightening and beautiful all at the same time,a very visible 16 of a soldier’s sacrifice for his country.It was something I don’t think I truly understood 17 I saw it hanging right before me on canvas.For some,it’s listening to a powerful 18 .But for me,I feel especially linked to the 19 when lost in art.
I’ll always have a special place in my heart for Mrs.Kim’s art and a painting that 20 me closer to the nation.

课时规范练26(模块八 Unit 3)
Ⅰ.【语篇解读】本杰明·韦斯特从六岁时就表现出了绘画的天分。没有画刷,他就从猫身上割下毛发自制画刷。他的表兄被他的画作所吸引,给他寄来了画刷和颜料,这是他第一次使用画刷和颜料绘制作品。当本杰明九岁的时候,他的表兄带他去了费城,给了他绘制油画的材料。大艺术家威廉·威廉姆斯被本杰明的画作所吸引,给了他两本古典绘画图书,这两本书成了他古典绘画的启蒙老师,促使他立志成为一名艺术家。
1.C 主旨大意题。本文介绍了本杰明·韦斯特在六岁到九岁时对绘画的热爱,他所面临的问题以及大艺术家威廉·威廉姆斯对他的影响及帮助,引导着他走上了艺术家的道路。因此C项正确。
2.D 句意猜测题。画线句是第三段的段首,其作用应是引出本段的内容。由上文可知,本杰明没有画刷就从猫身上割毛制作画刷。画线句后面的意思是,本杰明的表兄给他带来了画刷和颜料。故画线句子的意思应该是与本杰明需要画刷有关,因此D项正确。
3.B 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“...he sent Benjamin a box of paint and some brushes.”以及最后一段中的“In the city,Mr.Pennington gave Benjamin materials for creating oil paintings.”可知,表兄给本杰明提供了画刷等绘画材料来帮助他学习绘画,故B项正确。
4.D 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“...they were his introduction to classical paintings.The nine-year-old boy decided then that he would be an artist.”可知,这两本书对他的影响更多的是在精神方面,而不是知识方面,这两本书坚定了他的梦想,引导着这个九岁的男孩走上了绘画的道路。故D项正确。
Ⅱ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者回忆起高二的暑假,为了准备申请大学的材料而去学习绘画艺术,见到了其中的一幅受伤的士兵冲向敌人的画面,想到那些为国牺牲的勇士。这幅画所表达的情感深深吸引了作者,也让作者与自己的祖国联系得更加紧密。
1.B 下一句提到高三之前,本段结尾提到准备申请大学材料。可见作者是在读高中。故选B项。
2.A 本段的最后提到summer,可见是暑假。故选A项。
3.D 当年就称之为“金老师”,现在也还是这么叫的。故选D项。
4.C 根据下文中申请大学可知,在高二的暑假,作者是在做一些准备工作。故选C项。
5.A 根据冒号后面对画室的气味、声音和布局的描写可知,作者是喜欢在画室的周六的每个时刻。故选A项。
6.B 每次进入画室,“迎接(greet)”“我”的就是画室的颜料的气味。故选B项。
7.C 进入课堂,为了避免打扰别人,作者需要悄悄地进去。故选C项。
8.D 画笔在画布上划过的那种“轻盈的(gentle)”的响声。故选D项。
9.C 学生就是来上金老师的美术课的,当然要聆听老师的“指导(advice)”和教诲。故选C项。
10.B 作者在学画期间,所看所听所想,还有环境对作者的影响,这全部的“经过(experience)”作者都觉得有点儿梦幻一般。故选B项。
11.A 休息的时候,作者喜欢在工作室的周围转转、看看,观赏金老师的一些画作。故选A项。
12.C 墙上“布满(cover)”了金夫人的画作。故选C项。
13.B 根据第二段的第三句可知,金夫人的画作畅销全世界,可见,作者欣赏的是金夫人的那些名画。故选B项。
14.A 上文中提到作者在休息时,欣赏金夫人的那些名画,当然“一看(stare at)”就是好几个小时。rely on“依赖,依靠”;succeed in“成功”;suffer from“遭受,患病”。故选A项。
15.D 名画在不懂画的人面前一钱不值,肖像画肯定就是来传达情感的,只有那些有艺术天赋的人才能看出画作所“表达(express)”的情感。下文中也提到作者看出了画所表达的情感。故选D项。
16.C 看到这幅画,作者想到了那些为国捐躯的英雄们,这幅画是提醒物(reminder)。故选C项。
17.D 直到这幅画活生生地展现在作者面前,作者才懂得那些国家英雄所做出的牺牲。故选D项。
18.D 作者已经看懂了画作所表达的含义。根据下文中But的转折可知,对那些没有看懂的人来说,就像是在听某些威力巨大的“演讲(lecture)”一样。故选D项。
19.A 全文最后一句有提示。作者因为看懂了画作所表达的意义,明白了那些为国捐躯的英雄为国为民所做出的牺牲,因而,他觉得与自己的国家和民族越来越亲近了。故选A项。
20.B 全文总结,再次呼应第四段最后一句。作者忘不了金夫人,以及金夫人的画作带给作者的思考,让他觉得与自己的国家和民族越来越亲近。故选B项。
Ⅲ.【语篇解读】本文是记叙文,讲述38岁的李健忠回到老家继承中国传统文化,学习制作糖画的故事。
1.distant 考查词性转换。空处修饰名词memory,故填形容词distant“遥远的,久远的”。
2.keeping 考査非谓语动词。一位38岁的手
工艺
钢结构制作工艺流程车尿素生产工艺流程自动玻璃钢生产工艺2工艺纪律检查制度q345焊接工艺规程
人李健忠致力于继承糖面艺术。be committed to中的to是介词,此处应用动词-ing,故填keeping。
3.the 考査冠词。上文提到他做过十多年矿工,故此处表示他所在的矿井关闭以后,为特指,故用the。
4.to 考查介词。他转而去做房屋装修的工作了。 turn to“转而做,转向”。 故填 to。
5.was forced 考查时态和语态。直到他因为手指受伤而被迫放弃。此处讲述过去的事情,故用一般过去时,且句子的主语和force之间是被动关系,应用被动语态。故填was forced。
6.himself 考查代词。由于他的村子里没有糖面手工艺人,因此他自学(制作糖面)。by oneself是固定用法,表示“独自地,全靠自己地”,study by oneself“自学”,故填himself。
7.variety 考查词性转换。他很快掌握了这项技术并能制作出各种各样的糖画。a variety of“各种各样”,故填variety。
8.melted 考查非谓语动词。糖画通常用褐色或白色的融化了的糖做。糖是被融化的,故用过去分词做定语,故填melted。
9.normally 考查词性转换。手艺人们通常用糖浆在石板上画动物和花。修饰谓语动词用副词,故填normally。
10.what 考查主语从句。分析句子结构可知,空处引导主语从句,且在从句中做主语,表示“所……的东西”,故填what。
