It was reported in the newspapers to show that Churchill accepted the gift. He described the painting as "a remarkable example of modern art", which drew loud laughter.
In fact he was unhappy with the painting. Sutherland later reported that he asked whether it was to be painted in with a "happy" or "fierce" attitude. "Fierce," replied Churchill. At the time, Churchill was coming to the end of his political life and was unhappy that people wanted him to end his career.
Some twenty years later it was revealed that Lady Churchill hated the painting so much that she had it destroyed. "It was preying on (折磨) his mind," she was reported as saying.
A leading art critic was asked what he thought about the matter. He said he could understand Lady Churchill and had pity on her.

听力原文: I didn't know the city at all and what is more, I couldn't speak a word of the language. However, I decided to try out the pleasure of adventure. I got on a bus and it took me to a place that appeared to be a suburb.
I was fascinated by its pure natural scenery and the little book-stores I found in back streets. Time passed quickly and it was time to go back to my hotel for lunch. After walking aimlessly for some time, I determined to ask the way.
I first asked a friendly-looking newspaper-seller. He smiled and handed me a paper. I shook my head and repeated the name of the street and he thrust the paper into my hands. Hopelessly, I gave him the money and went on my way. The next person I asked was an old lady buying vegetables. She was very hard of hearing. I kept repeating the name of the street into her ear. When she finally heard me, she seemed to take offence and began shouting and shaking her walking-stick at me. I hurried away quickly. In frustration, I was overwhelmed with the delight of seeing a policeman on the comer. Gently he took me by the arm and pointed left and right and left again. I nodded politely and began walking in the direction he pointed. About an hour later I found myself between large fields of green crops. I had come all the way into the country.
