Romans and Greeks wrote their names and poems on buildings.Modern graffiti(涂鸦) seems to have appeared in Philadelphia in the early 1960s,and by the late sixties it had reached New York.The new art form really took off in the 1970s,when people began writing their names,or “tags(标记)”,on buildings all over the city.In the mid-seventies it was sometimes hard to see out of a subway car window,because the trains were completely covered in spray paintings known as “masterpieces”.In the early days,the “taggers” were part of street gangs who were concerned with marking their territory.The term “graffiti” was first used by the New York Times and the novelist Norman Mailer.But at the same time when it began to be regarded as an art form in the early seventies,John Lindsay,the then mayor of New York,declared the first war on graffiti.By the 1980s it became much harder to write on subway trains without being caught,and instead many of the established graffiti artists began using roofs of buildings.The debate over whether graffiti is art or illegal behavior is still going on.Peter Vallone,a New York city councilor,thinks that graffiti done with permission can be art,but if it is on someone elses property it becomes a crime.On the other hand,Felix,a member of the Berlin-based group Reclaim Your City,says that artists are reclaiming cities for the public from advertisers,and that graffiti represents freedom and makes cities more lively.For decades graffiti has been helpful to international fame for a few.The Frenchman Blek le Rat and the British artist Banksy have achieved international fame by producing complex works with stencils(模板),often making political or humorous points.Works by Banksy have been sold for over 100,000.Graffiti is now sometimes big business.【语篇导读】本文是一篇议论文,主要讨论了涂鸦的地位、历史及作用。1.What was the motivation for the street gang to write tags?A.Showing which streets belonged to which gangs.B.Creating a strong visual effect for

ago,bicycles didnt even exist,and the first bicycle,invented in Germany in 1818 was nothing like our bicycles today.Because it was made of wood,it wasnt very strong nor did it have pedals.Since then,however,numerous improvements have made it one of the most popular means of transportation around the world.In 1839,Kirkpatrick Macmillan,a Scottish blacksmith,invented a much better bicycle.Macmillans machine had iron-covered wheels to keep them from getting worn down.He also used foot-operated levers,similar to pedals,so his bicycle could be ridden at a quick pace.It didnt look much like the modern bicycle,though,because its back wheel was larger than its front wheel.Although Macmillans bicycles could be ridden easily,they were never produced in large numbers.In 1861,Frenchman Pierre Michaux and his brother Ernest invented a bicycle with an improved pedal mechanism.Ten years later,James Starley,an English inventor,revolutionized bicycle design.He made the front wheel many times larger than the back wheel,put a gear on the pedals to make the bicycle more efficient,and lightened the wheels by using wire spokes.Although this bicycle was much lighter and less tiring to ride,it was still clumsy,extremely top-heavy,and ridden mostly for entertainment.It wasnt until 1874 that the first truly modern bicycle appeared on
