Wooden planks were joined, covered with gesso (石膏) to prepare the surface for pai

16、nting, and then polished smooth with special tools. On this perfect surface, the artist would sketch a composition with chalk, refine it with inks, and then begin the deliberate process of applying thin layers of egg tempera (用鸡蛋、水等稀释的颜料或涂料) paint egg yolk in which pigments (颜料) are suspended, with

17、small brushes. The successive layering of these meticulously applied paints produced the final, translucent colors.Backgrounds of gold were made by carefully applying sheets of gold leaf, and then embellishing (修饰) or decorating the gold leaf by punching it with a metal rod on which a pattern had be

18、en embossed (使浮雕). Every step in the process was slow and deliberate, the quick-drying tempera demanded that the artist know exactly where each stroke be placed before the brush met the panel, and it required the use of fine brushes. It was, therefore, an ideal technique for emphasizing the hard lin

19、ear edges and pure, fine areas of color that were so much a part of the overall aesthetic (审美) of the time. The notion that an artist could or would dash off an idea in a fit of spontaneous inspiration was completely alien (相异的) to these deliberately produced works.Furthermore, making these painting

20、s was so time-consuming that it demanded assistance. All such work was done by collective enterprise in the workshops. The painter or master who is credited with having created the painting may have designed the work and overseen its production, but it is highly unlikely that the artists hand applie

21、d every stroke of the brush. More likely, numerous assistants, who had been trained to imitate the artists style, applied the paint. The carpenters shop probably provided the frame and perhaps supplied the panel, and yet another shop supplied the gold. Thus, not only many hands, but also many shops

22、were involved in the final product.In spite of problems with their condition, restoration, and preservation many panel paintings have survived, and today many of them are housed in museum collections.41. What aspect of panel painting does the passage mainly discuss?A. Famous examples. B. Different s

23、tyles. C. Restoration. D. Production.42. According to the passage, what was the first step in making a panel painting?A. Mixing the paint. B. Preparing the panel. C. Buying the gold leaf. D. Making ink drawings.43. The word deliberate in Paragraph 1, sentence 3, is closest in meaning to _.A. decisiv

24、e B. carefulC. natural D. unusual44. Which of the following processes produced the translucent colors found on panel paintings?A. Joining wooden planks to form large sheets. B. Polishing the gesso. C. Applying many layers of paint. D. Covering the background With gold leaf.45. The “collective enterp

25、rise” mentioned in Paragraph 3, sentence 2, includes all of the following EXCEPT.A. supplying the gold leaf B. building the panels C. applying the paint D. selling the paintingPassage 2Of all the varieties of music which fill our concert halls, theaters, and nightclubs, only jazz is native American

26、music. Symphonies and concertos, the ancestors of movie and television scores as well as of “serious” or “legitimate” electronic music, were first composed in Germany. Musical comedies descended from opera, which was first performed in Italy. And our ever-popular nightclub singers are the musical he

27、irs of the French singers of chansons (歌曲).The one form of music which did not originate in Europe and which is popular today worldwide is jazz. Jazz was born in New Orleans, the child of the Blacks. It drew on the rhythms as well as the emotionalism (感情主义) of the African music of the Black ancestor

28、s, which had been transformed into ragtime (拉格泰姆节奏爵士) and the blues. Improvisation (即度创作) was an indispensable element. Musicians were permitted, in solo (独奏) performance, plenty of freedom to play in whatever variations just as their creative mood happened to lead them along. But during the Swing (

29、摇摆乐) era (1930s - 1950s), impromptu (即兴的) performances gave way to arrangement. It was a period when jazz had its widest popular appeal with the big bands that boasted of such outstanding bandleaders as Duke Ellington, Glenn Miller and a whole galaxy of top-notch instrumentalists.Rock music in the 1

30、960s is a sociological expression rather than a musical force and the rock arena was seen as a sort of debating forum (论坛), a place where ideas clash and crash, where American youngsters struggle to define and redefine their feelings and beliefs. Bob Dylon touched a nerve of disaffection. He spoke o

31、f civil rights, nuclear fallout, and loneliness. He spoke of change and of the bewilderment of an older generation. “Something is happening here,” he sang. “You dont know what it is, do you, Mr. Jones?”Others entered the debate. The Beatles urged peace and piety (信仰) with humor and maybe a little he

32、lp from drugs. Feelings, always a part of any musical statement, were a major subject. Elvis Presley became the pop icon (偶像), maybe because he acted out your wildest fantasies, brought out your subdued id (冲动), embodied your frustrated teenage spirit, encouraged your protest against traditional val

33、ues. In this sense, rock is the music of teenage rebellion. All aspects of music - its exciting offbeat, loudness, self-absorbed lyrics and raving delivery - indicated a defiance of adult authority.46. What is the best title of this passage?A. The origin of jazz. B. The success of the rock music. C.

34、 The contemporary jazz and rock. D. The musical development from jazz to rock.47. Which of the following is true? A. Ragtime originated with the big bands in the 1930s. B. Ragtime and blues were based on African music. C. Ragtime and blues had not evolved until 1950s. D. Blues was performed by singe

35、rs dressed in blue.48. According to the passage, improvisation was most popular _. A. in the 1930s B. before 1930s C. after 1930s D. in the 1905s49. The first sentence in Paragraph 3 can be best interpreted as _. A. rock stars asking us to take our stand on political issues B. rock stars helping our

36、 society to form its code of ethics C. rock stars revealed their own problems and their social attitudes D. giving a clear definition to the words beliefs and feelings50. According to the passage, rock music in the sixties was seen as _. A. a radical city B. a country element C. a forum for debate D

37、. a collection of lyricsPassage 3As parents, we want our children to reach their full academic potential. We read to them, encourage their special talents, and support them when they have problems. If they choose to participate in music or sports, we also help them reach their potential in those are

38、as. These are all good goals. There is, however, an even more important goal. It is a goal more difficult than excellence in arithmetic or soccer or the violin. Parents are responsible for providing their children with a moral compass. They need to nurture and treasure goodness in their children. Ev

39、ery child has the capacity to become a good, decent human being. To fulfill this capacity, children need the guidance and support of parents and other adults. Raising good, moral children is the most important job we will have. What is a good, decent human being? While we may differ on some details,

40、 most would agree that respect for others, kindness and caring, honesty and honor, and a reverence (尊重) life are key. Good, decent human beings are people with a firm sense of direction and purpose - a moral compass - to guide their lives. Children need our help to develop these characteristics and

41、values. While most people try to act with honor and kindness, doing so consistently is difficult and requires lifelong effort. Goodness is not easy for an adult, and it is even more difficult for a child. They do not have the knowledge, experiences, or cognitive skills to understand the impact and c

42、onsequences of their actions.Reinforcement is sometimes an efficient approach to building positive behavior. The child behaves in a desired way and the parents provide reinforcement. The behavior then typically increases in frequency. This approach works for teaching “Please” and “Thank you.” The ne

43、w behavior is maintained, because it helps the child get along in the world. Loving, everyday interactions are the beginning of raising moral children. The child who falls and receives adult concern learns how to Great others kindly when they stumble. The child who makes a mistake and is encouraged

44、to try again learns how to support others. When parents intercede (调解) graciously for their child, the child can see the basis for friendship. When we treat children with respect and care, we provide a positive model of how to behave. These early experiences establish patterns for their treatment of

45、 others.51. To provide their children with a moral compass, adults should _.A. encourage their children to learn more knowledge about sports or music B. encourage their children to be a man with high integrity C. support their children when they have problems D. set a good example and give positive

46、instructions to children52. According to the author, people with a moral compass are the kind of people who _ . A. can reach their full academic potential B. can lead a decent life C. know what to do and why to do it D. have developed characteristics and values such as respect for others53. Why does the
