Module 4Fine ArtsWestern,Chinese and Pop Arts.话题延读(2018河南洛阳统一考试)Some people like modern art,while others say that is rubbish.But a cleaner who works in the Tate Gallery in London isnt able to tell the difference.The woman,whose name isnt known,mistook a work of art by the German painter Gustav Metzger for a bag of rubbish,and threw it out with other bags.The plastic bag,which contained pieces of paper and cardboard,was later recovered outside the gallery,but the artist thought that it was too damaged to be put on show again.78-year-old Mr.Metzger explained that the exhibit,which he said was a copy of a similar work he had created in 1960,was meant to show that all art is temporary and “finite (有限的)”.Embarrassed officials at the museum said that they had had to call a meeting with cleaners to explain which things should not be touched.They would not say whether Mr Metzger would be paid any compensation for the incident.However,to make absolutely sure the same thing would not happen again,they decided to cover Mr.Metzgers work every evening with a coloured cloth.In this way the cleaners arriving after the gallery had been closed to the general public would realize they should not touch it.This is not the first time that museum cleaners have had trouble distinguishing exhibits from rubbish.In 2001,in another London gallery,a cleaner threw away a work by the well-known British artist Damien Hirst.It was an arrangement of empty beer bottles,coffee cups,and overflowing ashtrays,which were meant to indicate the chaos in the life of an artist.However,cleaners dont always throw things awaysometimes they clean them!This was the case with a dirty bath,which was on show in a gallery in Germany.Without asking what the bath was doing in the gallery,the cleaners simply scrubbed it clean.1.The officials of the museum covered Mr.Metzgers work so that .A.the visitors couldnt get close in the eveningB.it could get recovered soonC.the cleaners wouldnt make the same mistakeD.they would return to normal2.Which of the following is NOT true?A.People have different opinions on modern art.B.We are sure that Mr.Metzger has been paid much compensation.C.A work of Damien Hirst was thrown away by a cleaner in 2001.D.Some modern work is about the chaos of an artists life.3.The last paragraph is written to show that .A.cleaners often make exhibits as clean as possibleB.cleaners cant always differ exhibits from rubbishC.exhibits are usually difficult to cleanD.exhibits are not always so beautiful4.Whats the best title of the passage?A.Cleaners Mistake Modern Art for RubbishB.Modern Art Shouldnt Be CleanedC.What Makes a Great Work of ArtD.Cleaners Dont Always Throw Things Away语篇解读:有些人喜欢现代艺术,而有些人不喜欢。本文介绍了在美术馆工作的清洁工错误地将现代艺术作品当成垃圾扔掉或误认为是很脏而擦干净的事。答案及剖析:1.C细节理解题。根据第二段中的“However,to make absolutely sure the same thing would not happen again,they decided to cover.with a coloured cloth.”可知,他们这样做的目的是避免清洁工再次犯同样的错误,即C项正确。2.B细节理解题。根据第一段的第一句可知A项表述正确;根据第二段的第二句可知B项表述错误;根据第三段的第二句和最后一句可知C、D两项表述正确。故选B项。3.B推理判断题。最后一段通过讲述清洁工误把现代艺术作品当成脏东西而擦干净的事来说明,清洁工并不总是能分清现代艺术作品与垃圾,即B项正确。4.A标题归纳题。文章开头的前两句话点明了主题,然后全文都是围绕清洁工误把现代艺术作品当成垃圾展开,即A项正确。.阅读理解(2018河南开封三模)When it comes to mental illness,many people often find it tough to get the help they need.This is especially true for young students making the transition (过渡) to college life.“Sometimes,students dont realize how hard it is to adjust to college,” said Laura Smith,associate dean of students at the University of Texas at Dallas. “Youre not the big fish in your classes anymore;you have all kinds of personal stress;youre away from home.Dealing with these things is not easy.”Students who are going through these problems sometimes want to reach out.But if students dont feel comfortable seeking help,many feel that its the responsibility of their university to help them.“I really wish that there was more importance placed on how counseling (咨询)centers help students,” said Connie Trinh.“Counseling services are just as important as academics and sports.”Trinh,27,graduated from Texas Womans University in 2015.During college,she hosted various workshops on how to handle mental health conditions.Trinh used her own story to connect with students who might be facing similar problems.High academic pressures,cultural differences as an Asian American and stressful social situations stood out as some of the most common causes of Trinhs anxiety.It was only after years of personal problems that she could admit that reaching out isnt a sign of weakness.“If you feel you cant connect with other people around you,you should address the issue without shame,” Trinh said.“Youll find that there are a lot of people out there who sincerely want to help you.”1.The passage can be seen as the authors reflections upon .A.college life B.counseling serviceC.mental health D.cultural differences2.Whats Trinhs preferred solution to the problems mentioned?A.Making self-criticism.
