A
Despite the fact that Mona Lisa is one of the most well-known paintings in the world, do you know that it's actually just 30 inches by 21 inches The famous and influential painting of Leonardo da Vinci is housed at the Louvre and is under reliable security, but in May 2022, an angry protester was still able to lob some cake over at it.
The man disguised himself as a senior in a wheelchair, and all of a sudden, he jumped up out of the wheelchair. He tried to break through the painting's protective glass case, and when he failed to do so, he broke some cake directly onto the glass and threw roses onto the ground. He was then taken out of the building by security guards.
As he was taken out, the man was said to have shouted, “There are people who are destroying the Earth... Artists should think about the Earth! All artists should think about the Earth. That's why I did this.”
Experts believe he was able to get so close to the painting thanks to the use of the wheelchair disguise. A museum spokesperson told BuzzFeed News that the museum had been following museum “usual procedures” for visitors with disabilities.
The painting was not damaged, but this was actually not the first time that it had faced the threat of damage. It first became well-known when Vincenzo Peruggia stole the painting in 1911. It took people 24 hours to notice that the painting was stolen, but then it was reported all over the front page of international newspapers. Peruggia was caught two years later and the painting became internationally known after being recovered for the extensive coverage.
In 1956, the painting was sprayed with acid(酸), with the lower part of the painting being affected. Then Ugo Ungaza Villegas threw a rock at the painting, hitting the lower elbow(肘部) of the woman in the painting. Following these events, the painting has been encased in bulletproof(防彈的) glass.
1.What does the underlined word “l(fā)ob” in paragraph 1 mean
A.Take.　　　B.Paint.　　　C.Hang.　　　D.Throw.
2.Why did the protester pretend to be a senior in a wheelchair
A.To gain more sympathy.　　　B.To destroy the painting.
C.To visit the museum for free.　　　D.To watch the painting closely.
3.What do we know about the protester
A.He was dissatisfied with artists.　　　B.He wanted to draw others' attention.
C.He tried to force the museum to close.　　　D.He fought for the rights of the elderly.
4.What effect did the news reports about Peruggia's act have on the painting
A.It was further damaged.　　　B.It was easier to protect.
C.It became world-famous.　　　D.It led to no more attacks.
B
To say that the Spanish painter Pablo Picasso was a leader in Western art in the 20th century is to repeat an accepted fact, according to Time. “No painter before him had enjoyed such a large following and recognition in his own lifetime.”
Born on Oct. 25, 1881, Picasso had created more than 30,000 paintings, drawings, sculptures and other pieces of art by the time he died in 1973.
That's a long time to paint! The result is not only a lot of art, but a lot of different phases in Picasso's work. On its website, Christie's auction house lists eight different periods in the course of his painting career.
Over a century ago, the painter once said, “Every act of creation is first of all an act of destruction.” So the eight periods are all very different in their choice of subjects and yet unmistakably drawn by Picasso's hands. Financial Express called his style unusual.
As his style changed over time, it became more simplistic. A common joke is that Picasso forgot how to paint. After all, he was classically trained at the School of Fine Arts in Barcelona.
Now he is best known for leading an artistic movement known as “Cubism(立體派)”. It used geometric shapes to create human and animal figures. With this method, Picasso tried to show his figures from multiple perspectives in two-dimensional space. For example, a person's left eye may be shown from the front while his right eye and nose are shown from the side. The result is strange and beautiful, frightening and funny.
Picasso often said that he admired primitive art and drawings made by youngsters. “When I was the age of 14, I could draw like Raphael, but it took me a lifetime to learn to draw like them,” he said. Maybe that's why Picasso is still so popular and wins a lot of reputation. We look at his work and think, “Maybe I could do that!”
5.Which of the following best describes Pablo Picasso
A.Productive.　　　B.Optimistic.　　　C.Traditional.　　　D.Generous.
6.Why did Financial Express call Picasso's style unusual
A.His act of creation was destructive.　　　B.He created a series of simple images.
C.His painting style remained unchanged.　　　D.He drew different subjects in different periods.
7.What is special about a cubist painting according to the text
A.It is rather difficult to understand.　　　B.It shows figures from various perspectives.
C.It covers different subjects at the same time.　　　D.It shows some strange figures.
8.What does the underlined word “them” in the last paragraph refer to
A.Raphael's works.　　　　B.Artists.　　　C.Drawings.　　　D.Youngsters.

1.D　詞義猜測題。根據(jù)第二段中的“when he failed to do so, he broke some cake directly onto the glass and threw roses onto the ground”可知,這個抗議者當(dāng)時應(yīng)該是把蛋糕直接扔向了保護(hù)這幅畫的玻璃罩上,蛋糕在玻璃罩上摔爛了;結(jié)合畫線詞所在部分的意思“但在2022年5月,一名憤怒的抗議者仍然能夠向它lob些蛋糕”可推斷,畫線詞lob應(yīng)該表示“扔;投”。故選D。
2.B　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段中的“The man disguised himself as a senior in a wheelchair, and all of a sudden, he jumped up out of the wheelchair. He tried to break through the painting's protective glass case”可推斷,這個抗議者把自己偽裝成一個坐輪椅的老年人是為了能夠毀壞這幅名畫。故選B。
3.A　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段中的“There are people who are destroying the Earth... Artists should think about the Earth!”可推斷,這個抗議者認(rèn)為有人正在毀滅地球,藝術(shù)家沒有為地球著想,說明他對藝術(shù)家不滿。故選A。
4.C　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第五段最后一句“Peruggia was caught two years later and the painting became internationally known after being recovered for the extensive coverage.”可知,兩年后Peruggia被捕,這幅畫因被廣泛報(bào)道而聞名于世。故選C。

原句　It took people 24 hours to notice that the painting was stolen, but then it was reported all over the front page of international newspapers.
分析　本句為并列復(fù)合句,but連接兩個并列分句。在前一分句中,It作形式主語,后面的不定式短語to notice...是真正的主語,其中的that引導(dǎo)賓語從句,作notice的賓語。
譯文　人們在24小時后才注意到這幅畫被偷了,但后來國際報(bào)紙的頭版都報(bào)道了這件事。

8.D　詞義猜測題。根據(jù)最后一段中的“Picasso often said that he admired primitive art and drawings made by youngsters. ‘When I was the age of 14, I could draw like Raphael, but it took me a lifetime to learn to draw like them,’ he said.”可知,畢加索常說他欣賞原始藝術(shù)和年輕人畫的素描畫,他花了一生的時間去學(xué)習(xí)像他們那樣畫畫。所以them指的是上文提到的youngsters。故選D。
