Having its beginnings in Italy, by the 16th century, it had spread to the rest of Europe. Its influence was felt in different fields such as philosophy, literature, religion, science, politics, and, of course, art. The scholars of the renaissance period applied the humanist method in every field of study, and wanted human emotion and realism in art.Renaissance scholars studied the ancient Latin and Greek texts, searching the monastic(修道院的)libraries of Europe for works of ancient times that had bee obscure, in their hunt for improving and perfecting their worldly knowledge. This was pletely different from the religion that Christianity(基督教)stressed. However, that does not mean that they refused Christianity. In fact, much of the greatest works of the renaissance period was devoted to it, with the church supporting a lot of the works of renaissance art. However, there were slight changes in the manner in which the scholars began to treat religion, which affected the cultural life of the society, which in turn influenced the artists of that period and therefore was reflected in their art.In Raphaels School of Athens, for example, some well-known people were described as classical scholars, with Leonardo da Vinci being given as much importance as Plato in his time. Giotto di Bondone, 12671337, a Florentine, who is regarded as the greatest Italian painter just earlier than the renaissance period, is thought to be the first artist who treated a painting as a window into space.However, it was only after the writings of Filippo Brunelleschi, 13771446, who is considered the first great builder of the Italian Renaissance, that perspective was formally accepted as an artistic technique. 1.What makes Italy stand out in a way in world history? A.Its artists during the Renaissance were numerous. B.It was the center of the European countries. C.It had Leonardo da Vincis Mona Lisa. D.It was the home to the Renaissance.2.The underlined word “obscure” in Paragraph 3 most probably means “”. A.meaningless and hard to recognizeB.clear and meaningful to guide peopleC.unclear and difficult to understand or seeD.easy to understand but having little meaning3. When was perspective officially received during the Renaissance? A.After the pletion of Leonardo da Vincis Mona Lisa. B.After Leonardo da Vincis being pared to Plato. C.After Giotto di Bondones paintings were respected. D.After Filippo Brunelleschis pleting his writings.4.The passage aims to tell us. A.Italys renaissance art and artistsB.the famous artists in Italys historyC.Italys influence on the world in cultureD.the hardships during the renaissance in Italy語篇解讀:文章介紹了文藝復(fù)興的發(fā)源地意大利在當時的背景下的文化特色和相關(guān)藝術(shù)家在這個時期的作用。答案及剖析:1.D推理判斷題。第二段第二句話Having its beginnings in Italy, by the 16th century, it had spread to the rest of Europe.說明意大利是文藝復(fù)興的發(fā)源地,到16世紀它影響到整個歐洲。2.C詞義猜測題。該題根據(jù)語境結(jié)合選項進行猜測。句中的the monastic說明這些資料的來源, 和宗教有關(guān)的應(yīng)該是較難理解的, works of ancient times也說明了這一點。3.D細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段中的“only after the writings of Filippo Brunelleschi, 13771446. perspective was formally accepted as an artistic technique.”可知答案為D項。4.A主旨大意題。文章是圍繞著意大利在文藝復(fù)興中的文化發(fā)展和相關(guān)的藝術(shù)家展開的。BUsing too much water or throwing rubbish into our rivers are clear ways that humans can put our water supply in danger,but we also affect our water supply in less obvious ways. You may wonder how paving(鋪砌) a road can lead to less usable fresh water. A major part of the water we use every day is groundwater. Groundwater does not e from lakes or rivers. It es from underground. The more roads and parking lots we pave,the less water can flow into the ground to bee groundwater.Human activity is not responsible for all water shortages. Drier climates are of course more likely to have droughts(干旱) than areas with more rainfall,but in any case, good management can help to make sure there is enough water to meet our basic needs.Thinking about the way we use water every day can make a big difference,too. In the United States,a family of four can use 1.5 tons of water a day! This shows how much we depend on water to live,but theres a lot we can do to lower the number.You can take steps to save water in your home. To start with,use the same glass for your drinking water all day. Wash it only once a day. Run your dishwasher (洗碗機)only when it is full. Help your parents fix any leaks in your home. You can even help to keep our water supply clean by recycling batteries instead of throwing them away.5.Which of the following is most likely to lead to less groundwater?A.Using river water.B.Throwing batteries away.C.Paving parking lots.D.Throwing rubbish into lakes.6.What can be inferred from the text?A.All water shortages are due to human behavior.B.It takes a lot of effort to meet our water needs.C.There is much we can do to reduce family size.D.The average family in America makes proper use of water.7.The last paragraph is intended to.A.show us how to fix leaks at homeB.tell us how to run a dishwasherC.prove what drinking glass is best for usD.suggest what we do to save water at home8.The text is mainly about.A.how human activity affects our water supplyB.how much we depend on water to liveC.why droughts occur more in dry climatesD.why paving roads reduces our water語篇解讀:這是一篇關(guān)于用水問題的議論文。盡管大量用水和污染水源使人類用水處于危險境地,但是人類的一些小型活動也對用水問題有著巨大的影響。答案及剖析:5.C細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段最后一句The more roads and parking lots we pave, the less water can flow into the ground to bee groundwater.可知,導致地下水減少的是鋪設(shè)道路和停車場,故選C。6.B推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段中g(shù)ood management can help to make sure there is enough water to meet our basic needs.及下文描述可知,要滿足我們的用水需求需要很大的努力, 故選B。7.D推理判斷題。根據(jù)You can take steps to save water in your home.及本段描述可知,本段主要是針對如何節(jié)水提出建議,選D。8.A主旨大意題。這篇短文主要描述了人類活動與水資源的關(guān)系,告訴我們?nèi)绾喂?jié)約用水。故選A。
