第7题

Every artist knows in his heart that he is saying something to the public. Not only does h
e want to say it well, but he wants it to be something which has not been said before. He hopes the public will listen and understand what he wants to teach them, and he wants them to learn from him. What visual artists like painters want to teach is easy to make out but difficult to explain, because painters translate their experiences into shapes and colors, not words. They seem to feel that a certain selection of shapes and colors, out of the countless billions possible, is exceptionally interesting for them and worth showing to us. Without their work we should never have noticed these particular shapes and colors, or have felt the delight which they brought to the artist. Most artists take their shapes and colors from the world of nature and from human bodies in motion and repose; their choices indicate that these aspects of the world are worth looking at, that they contain beautiful sights. Contemporary artists might say that they merely choose subjects that provide an interesting pattern, that there is nothing more in it. Yet even they do not choose entirely without reference to the character of their subjects. If one painter chooses to paint a broken leg and another a lake in moonlight, each of them is directing our attention to a certain aspect of the world. Each painter is telling us something, showing us something, emphasizing something ... all of which mean that, consciously or unconsciously, he is trying to teach us.

What all artists in common is that ______.

A.they use shapes and colors instead of words

B.they want the public to understand them and get something from their works

C.they want to show the public something that is difficult to explain

D.they want to learn from the public

听力原文: When I was in the third grade, I was picked to be the princess in the school pla
y. For weeks my mother had helped me practice my lines. But once on stage, every word disappeared from my head. Then my teacher told me she bad written a narrator's part for the play, and asked me to change roles. Though I didn't tell my mother what had happened that day, she sensed my unhappiness and asked if I wanted to take a Walk in the yard.

It was a lovely spring day. We could see dandelions popping through the grass in bunches, as if a painter had touched our landscape with bits of gold. I watched my mother carelessly bend down by one of the bunches. "I think I am going to dig up all these weeds," she said. "From now on, we'll have only roses in this garden. "

"But I like dandelions," I protested. "All flowers are beautiful — even dandelions!" My mother looked at me seriously. "Yes, every flower gives pleasure in its own way, doesn't it?" she asked thoughtfully. I nodded. "And that is true of people, too," she added.

When I realized that she had guessed my pain, I started to cry and told her the truth.

"But you will be a beautiful narrator," she said, reminding me of how much I loved to read stories aloud to her.

Over the next few weeks, with her continuous encouragement, I learned to take pride in the role. The big day finally came. A few minutes before the play, my teacher came over to me. "Your mother asked me to give this to you," she said, handing me a dandelion. After the play, I took home the flower, laughing that I was perhaps the only person who would keep such a weed.

(30)

A.Mainly because she felt nervous on the stage.

B.Mainly because she lost her interest in that role.

C.Mainly because she preferred the role of the narrator.

D.Mainly because she had difficulty memorizing her words.

Miro, A Just ManMiro was goodness, a just man in all things. He did not speak much but was

Miro, A Just Man

Miro was goodness, a just man in all things. He did not speak much but was very courteous. I never saw him with a camera or a ballpoint pen, but he would sometimes spend an hour contemplating the landscape. He and I were alone. I prudently kept my distance. He liked places that were difficult to get to, with a good view.

Francesco Sole, Miro's chauffeur during 25 years. Interview at ABC, in Spain, 1983.

Bernini on Women

Asked in the presence of many French ladies who were the more beautiful, the French or the Italians, he replied that all were very beautiful, but with this difference: that there was blood under the skin with the Italians, while with Frenchwomen there was milk.

F. Baldinucci, Vita del Cavaliere Glo. Lorenzo Bernino, 1681, from the 1846 edition of the Notizie.

Frida Kahlo

Why did Frida paint herself? Her preferred exercise seems to have been shaping and perpetuating the image the mirror returned, enriched by her own art and imagination. On the other hand Frida herself answered this question by saying, "I paint self-portraits because I am so often alone. Because I am the person I know best."

Espacio , Art Magazine 1983.

Degas

In the life of Degas, his famous painting, Danseuses a la barre sold for five hundred thousand francs. When Degas discovered this, he commented: "The painter who painted this is not necessarily an imbecile; but the person who paid five hundred thousand francs for this painting, is most definitely an idiot."

Anthology of Anecdotes, Noel Claraso, 1982.

Picasso on Drawing

Picasso said to me once with a good deal of bitterness, they say I can draw better than Raphael, and probably they are right, perhaps I do draw better but if I can draw as well as Raphael I have at least the right to choose my way and they should recognize it, but no, they say no.

G. Stein, Picasso, 1938.

Who was most likely an idiot, according to one of the following descriptions?

A.Miro, because he spoke little but was very courteous.

B.Bernini, because he divided women by skin and silk.

C.The person who bought the Degas' famous painting.

D.Those people do not recognize the talent of Picasso.
