module 4 fine arts-western chinese and pop arts (建议用时：35分钟).阅读理解a(2020大连高三双基测试)in mark turins article“protecting our public spaces” in issue 14, he claims that “all graffiti(涂鸦) is vandalism(故意破坏财物的行为), pure and simple, and offers no benefit to our public spaces”. i would like to point out that many people believe that graffiti is an art form that can benefit our public spaces just as much as sculptures, fountains, or other more accepted art forms.people who object to graffiti usually do so more because of where it is, not what it is. they argue that posting graffiti in public places is considered an illegal act of property damage. but the location of such graffiti should not prevent the images themselves from being considered real art.i would argue that graffiti is the most important public art form. spray paint is a medium unlike any other. through graffiti, the entire world has become a canvas(画布). these works of art dotting the urban landscape are available, free of charge, to everyone who passes by.to be clear, i do not consider random words or names sprayed on stop signs to be art. plenty of graffiti is just vandalism, pure and simple. however, there is also graffiti that is breathtaking in its complex detail, its realism, or its creativity. it takes great talent to create such involved designs with spray paint. are these creators not artists just because they use a can of spray paint instead of a paintbrush?to declare that all graffiti is vandalism, and nothing more, is an overly simplistic statement. furthermore, graffiti is not going anywhere, so we might as well find a way to live with it and enjoy its benefits. one option could be to make a percentage of public spaces open to graffiti artists. by doing this, the public might feel like part owners of these works of art, rather than just the victims of a crime.【解题导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章通过论述涂鸦与公共空间的关系，进而探讨涂鸦是否为艺术。作者认为判断其是否为艺术应该根据涂鸦的质量而非存在的地方。1mark turin apparently believes that

has shown that people who procrastinate have higher levels of stress and lower wellbeing, reported the association for psychological science in the us. but a new study has found a way to deal with this problem: be more connected to your future self.psychologists think that each person believes that they are really two people：“present me” and “future me”. “people act as if they prefer their current selves needs and desires to those of their future selves，” wrote psychologists neil lewis and daphna oyserman.oyserman and lewis decided to try to find a way to make “present me” imagine exactly how “future me” would feel the night before a big paper was due, though “present me” hadnt started yet. they made “present me” think about a faroff event a number of days away, not months or years.thinking about events in this_way meant that something like a friends wedding seemed 16.3 days sooner when considered in days rather than months and 11.4 months sooner when considered in months rather than years.the researchers also tried to find out whether people would take action sooner if they were told a certain event was happening in several days rather than years. for example, participants imagined they had a newborn child, and that the child would need to go to college in either 18 years or 6，570 days. the researchers found those in the “days” condition planned to start saving four times sooner than those in the “years” condition.so if you think of your life in days instead of years, you may get things done quicker.【解题导语】本文主要探究了一种应对拖延症的方法。4what did oyserman and lewis

that reason does not have to be concrete.”可知，d项“如果你有一个理由的话，说不总是比较容易的”符合语境，故选d。4b解析：空后三句讲述的是，人们通常不会接受“不”的，他们会找种种理由劝你改变主意，因此我们要坚持自己的决定，不要轻易屈服。由此可推知，我们要知道他人的劝说技巧。故选b。5e解析：本段讲述的是要训练自己说“不”。该空前一句提到训练说“不”可能听起来很愚蠢，但实际上你可以独自去训练自己说“不”。由此可知e项“试着站在镜子前，看着自己”符合语境，衔接上下文。.语法填空(2020贵阳适应性考试一)chinas
