Even so, the dancers are growing in number and style. Li Dong,46, is a pioneer in this field. “In addition to keeping fit, square dancing has

15、 become so popular because older people who are free from work and from raising children want to be connected with one another.

He came to London intending(打算)to study law, but went to art school instead. There he found the traditional drawing classes diffcult, but still kept o

28、n painting.In his late twenties he was given money by the Italian government to study art and liked early Italian artists, which shows in some of his work. He loved the greens and browns of the Italian fields and the clear light there, and wanted to put this light into his paintings.This led him to

29、paint colours thinly one on top of another from light to dark, but he insists hes never sure what the results will be. He says, Its a secret-because I dont know myself. I dont start by painting yellow, knowing Im going to put anything on top. Like most talented people, Aitchison makes it sound easy.

30、 Anyone can do the colours-you can buy them. I simply notice what you put the colours next to.Unlike some artists, he never does drawings before he starts a painting, as he feels that if he did, he might get bored and not do the painting afterwards. Instead, Aitchison changes his paintings many time

31、s before they are finished. This explains why his favourite models are people who dont ask to see their pictures while hes painting them. If I feel theyre worried and want to look at the painting, I cant do it.Since moving to London years ago, he has not felt part of the Scottish(苏格兰的)painting scene

32、. He says he doesnt want to follow any tradition, but just paints the way he can. However, his work still influences young British painters.1In the passage, the writer is trying to .Adescribe particular works by Craigie AitchisonBteach readers how to paint like Craigie AitchisonCintroduce the artist

33、 Craigie Aitchison to the readersDexplain how Craigie Aitchison has made money from painting2What can the reader learn about Aitchison from the passage?AHe works in a different way from other artists.BHe often gets bored easily with his paintings.CHe found the drawing classes easy at art school.DHe

34、was sure what his painting was like before drawing.3Aitchison prefers models who dont .Akeep moving around while hes workingBask him about his strange method of workingCworry about how long the work will takeDfeel worried to see the work as its developing4What might a visitor at an exhibition say ab

35、out Aitchisons work?AI love his recent painting of Scotland, which are very similar to a number of other Scottish painters.BYou can still see the influence of his trip to Italy in some of these pictures.CYou can tell he spent a lot of time drawing the picture before he started painting.DI wonder if

36、his law training helps him at all, especially in selling his work.D16、Once a traveller came into a village which was suffering from hunger. The villagers asked him to leave, for they feared he wanted them to give him food. They told him that there was no food. The traveller explained that he didnt n

37、eed any food and that, in fact, he was planning to make a soup to share with them instead. The villagers watched suspiciously as he built a fire and filled a pot with water With great ceremony(仪式), he pulled a stone from a bag, and dropped the stone into the pot of water. After a moment, he smelt th

38、e soup and shouted with excitement, “How delicious the soup is!” As the villagers began to show interest, he mentioned how good the soup would be with just a little cabbage in it. A villager brought out a cabbage to share. This episode(情节) repeated itself until the soup had cabbage, carrots, onions,

39、 and beetsindeed, a full pot of soup that could feed everyone in the village was ready. This story describes when there are not enough resources(资源), humans will store things. We do not want to share. The story of stone soup helps us realize that, in doing so, we often prevent ourselves and everyone

40、 else from having a feast(盛宴).The meaning of this story goes far beyond food. We keep to ourselves ideas, love, and energy, thinking we will be richer, but in fact we make the world, and ourselves, poorer. The traveller was able to see that the villagers were holding back, and he had the ability to

41、inspire(激发) them to give. In this way, they created a large meal that none of them could have created alone. Are you like one of the villagers? If you come forward and share your gifts, you will inspire others to do the same. The reward is a feast that can feed many.1（小题1）What does the underlined wo

44、ved my mothers desk since I was just tall enough to sit above the top of it. Mother sat writing letters. Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be a most wonderful thing in the world.Years later, during her final illness, Mothe

45、r kept different things for my sister and brother. “But the desk,” she said again, “ is for Elizabeth.”I never saw her angry, never saw her cry. I knew she loved me; she showed in action.

I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she chose that she did forgive me.My hope

47、 turned to disappointment, then little interest and, finally, peace it seemed that nothing happened. I couldnt be sure that the letter had even got to Mother. I only knew that I had written it, and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not.But the present of her desk told me, as shed
