Live from the Louvre
(节选自外研版教材必修第三册UNIT 4)
Hi, it's Zack! Greetings from Paris, everyone! This broadcast is being brought to you from one of the largest museums on Earth — the Louvre! Today we're going to find out about some of the Louvre's most amazing treasures.Here we go!(介绍了本次直播的相关信息)
Now, at the top of these stone stairs ...get a load of that! That huge sculpture you can see is the Winged Victory of Samothrace, or Nike of Samothrace! I can't even begin to tell you how amazing this is! ...(按照空间顺序首先介绍了雕像《萨莫色雷斯的胜利女神》)
Okay, I'd better move on.You can see there are so many people here.I'm being pushed around quite a bit, in fact.And you're really going to love what's coming up next.It's the one and only Mona Lisa! The painting is a lot smaller than you would expect, and is protected by glass.But from here I can get a good view to show you.❶When I look into her eyes it seems she has a mind of her own! One moment she seems to be laughing at me, but then again I catch a sense of sadness in her smile.❷I guess that's why she attracts so many visitors every day.(抓住特点从细节上讲解了经典画作《蒙娜丽莎》)
And now, it's time to get up close and personal with one of history's greatest artists — Rembrandt! He painted this self-portrait about 400 years ago.Throughout his life, he made over 90 self-portraits! No one really knows why.Perhaps it was his way of taking a 17th-century selfie? Or was it simply cheaper to paint himself than to pay for a model?(围绕伦勃朗自画像提出两个设问,语言幽默风趣)
About 35,000 works are currently being displayed in over 300 rooms in the Louvre, and it would take a lifetime to see everything! I'll say bye for now, and hope you can all visit this fantastic place one day to feel the power of these great works of art for yourselves.❸They really do reach out to us across the centuries as if time itself were nothing.(介绍了卢浮宫展品概况并邀请观众亲往参观)
由教材学写法
1.学语言运用
第一段中的most amazing渲染出即将直播的艺术品的珍贵和稀有,起到了激发观众兴趣的作用。第二段中用I can't even begin to tell you ...写出了该艺术品的精美绝伦及作者难以言表的震撼与惊叹。第三段中的the one and only写出了《蒙娜丽莎》在艺术领域无可比拟的地位。第三段最后一句中使用了I guess,表达主播的猜想。类似的表达还有:I suppose, I think。第四段中的Perhaps以及最后的疑问句也都表示主播的猜测。
2.学高级句式
句❶是一个主从复合句,句中when引导时间状语从句。主句运用了it seems (that) ...句式, 句子she has a mind of her own是省略了连接词that的从句。
句❷是一个主从复合句,句中谓语动词后是宾语从句。宾语从句又运用了“that's why ...”句式,其中why引导的名词性从句作表语,说明了每天来欣赏作品《蒙娜丽莎》的游客络绎不绝的原因。
句❸是一个主从复合句,句中as if引导方式状语从句,使用了虚拟语气。助动词do置于主句谓语动词reach前,表强调。整个句子虚实结合,感情充沛地表达了作者对这些作品穿越几个世纪,仿佛时间没有流逝一般出现在我们面前的感慨之情。
3.学行文特点
本文的语篇类型是网络直播,属于新媒体语篇。文章通过主播以第一人称的视角依次介绍了在巴黎卢浮宫陈列的雕塑《萨莫色雷斯的胜利女神》、达·芬奇的绘画作品《蒙娜丽莎》和伦勃朗的自画像,在介绍这些艺术品的同时,主播表达了自己的看法。让读者有种纪录片式的代入感。
Ⅰ.多积词块——丰富表达方式

13.queue up/stand in line 排队
14.range from ...to ... 范围从……到……
15.sense of beauty 美感
16.widen one's horizons 开阔某人的眼界

这次展览为当地艺术家提供了一个展示自己作品的机会。
2.It was a fascinating painting, with clever use of colour and light.
这是一幅迷人的画,巧妙地运用了色彩和光线。

4.Tom had a strong interest in painting when he was a child.

一、作文提升练习
下面是一篇学生习作,介绍了参观学生国画作品展的经过并推荐观展。请根据上面所学,对习作进行润色、升级。
Last Sunday I visited the exhibition of students' traditional Chinese paintings held by our school.
❶People say that the exhibition will last for a month in the school art centre. Works on show there range from landscape paintings to flower-and-bird paintings.I was impressed by not only the splendid scenery but also the vivid civil life the paintings portrayed.I really appreciate the beautiful works by those gifted student painters.
I heartily recommend this exhibition to you.❷I'm sure it will arouse your interest in Chinese painting, and it will help you have a deeper understanding of Chinese culture.
(一)将文中加蓝词汇升级
1.show→display
2.beautiful→_fantastic
(二)根据提示将文中句子升级
1.用主语从句升级句❶
_It_is_said_that_the_exhibition_will_last_for_a_month_in_the_school_art_centre.
2.用非限制性定语从句升级句❷
I'm_sure_it_will_arouse_your_interest_in_Chinese_painting,_which_will_help_you_have_a_deeper_understanding_of_Chinese_culture.
二、续写语段思维活
结合主题,根据下面给出的开头语和情节脉络续写一个80词左右的片段。
情节脉络:Lily喜欢每一门功课,除了艺术!她不擅长画画以及剪纸→一天,Clay老师宣布星期日有一场艺术大赛,每位学生都要提交一份作品→Lily不想参赛,但Clay老师和同学们都鼓励她不要轻易放弃→Lily在家苦思冥想,设计自己的作品,房间里扔满了废弃的纸团→当她盯着纸团发呆的时候,忽然有了一个想法……
Why not create something out of crumpled(揉皱的) paper?
参考范文:
Why not create something out of crumpled paper? The crumpled paper reminded her of a snowball. Lily didn't have to draw or paint or even cut. Lily made many paper balls, glued them all together, and placed them on a big piece of hard paper to form a snowman. On Sunday, Lily carefully carried her project into the library. She noticed the smile and the nods from teachers and other students as she put her work on a table. Ms Clay walked over to Lily. “You have created a creative piece of artwork. I am so proud of you!” Lily was proud of herself too.
课时作业(一) 语篇阅读训练——保准度
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Distinguished Baltimore artist John D.Ferguson died September 16. The Catonsville resident was 81.
“His artist eye was in everything he did. His life was art and his family,” said Jennifer C. Jackson, who was Mr Ferguson's friend for nearly three decades.“He was a lovable man who was always willing to talk about any topic he was interested in. At shows, people would go crazy for his work,” Ms Jackson said. “He was also an enthusiastic sailor who loved nothing more than being on the water.” “His sculptures were just memorable,” said Mr Lund, a Washingtonian. “I used to say, ‘Ferguson, I don't think you know how to do anything that is less than monumental.’”
Mr Ferguson earned a bachelor's degree in 1961 at Holy Cross University, where he developed an interest in painting. He served in the army for two years until being discharged in 1963, and after studying briefly at the Boston Museum School, registered at the Chicago Art Institute, where he studied until 1966, when he entered the University of Illinois Chicago, where he obtained a bachelor's degree in 1966 in fine arts. Mr Ferguson developed his interest and skills as a sculptor after moving to Baltimore to do further studies at the Maryland Institute College of Art's Rinehart School of Sculpture, from which he graduated in 1971 with a master's degree in fine arts.
“Over the years my work has moved gradually in the direction of elegance and simplicity,” Mr Ferguson wrote in his artist statement. “Heavy, bulbous forms have been replaced by dancing, winglike forms.” The welding process and respect for the qualities of the materials are interrelated and affect the final piece. “Most of the sculptures that are pictured in my works are made from steel, silicon bronze, and to CorTen steel; shaped to create these beautiful and unique pieces of art. As you can see, my sculptures range in size anywhere from 12 inches to 30 feet or larger.”
Through the years, his work found its way into such major public and private collections. “They encourage optimism, for they show strength and affirmation; there's nothing negative, depressing or anxietyridden about them,” wrote the late art critic John Dorsey in a 1997 exhibition review.

A.An even larger scale than before.
B.The material comprised of metals.
C.The shape of elegance and simplicity.
D.Welding process as well as material quality.

Every day since early July, Tiffany Wong has been painting a small watercolor of one woman and then sharing the printing on the Internet,providing background information about each woman.Wong started the project to give more people a chance to learn about the different roles of famous women in history,“We don't really get to learn about them in our school as much,” Wong said.“I wanted to make the women's history more available for people so that they wouldn't have to do the research and they wouldn't forget their achievements.”
Wong's interest in the women's history started young.As a child in California,she read books about women, including scientist Barbara McClintock,doctor Elizabeth Blackwell and other outstanding women.
The idea to develop her own women's history project was inspired in part by a free course through HarvardX,Harvard University's developer of online courses.Wong has worked there for the past five years after learning international education policy from the university.The Schlesinger Library provided another inspiration for Wong.In 2018,she visited the library's 75th anniversary exhibit,which told the stories of women through 75 documents and objects.
As an artist since childhood,Wong decided her project would include both paintings and research about the women.“The written part of the post consumes energy and brain and often takes longer than the painting,” Wong said.Whenever possible, she used original sources and quotes, often referring to papers and other documents.
None of the paintings includes the facial features of the women,which is a painting style that makes the paintings easier to do, while giving people an opportunity to see themselves in the image.“I wanted something open,” Wong said.“I wanted people to feel like they could also be these people.”
Her subjects occasionally notice her posts.In February,Wong wrote about the career of Merritt Moore,a physicist and dancer with an undergraduate degree from Harvard.Moore share the post with her own followers and left a comment for Wong.“Wong! I'm so touched — thank you! Love this! ! !” Moore wrote.

Understanding and appreciating abstract art can be tough if you don't have much experience with art.Don't worry.The following can help you gain an appreciation of abstract artwork enormously.
•Relax as you look at abstract art.
__9__, it's best to go to the gallery or view the art when you're in a relaxing state so that the art affects you in a positive way.Limit distractions around you, like your cellphone, and try to clear your mind of negative or stressful thoughts.
•__10__.
Avoid saying things like “Anyone could make that” and dismiss prior opinions you have about the artwork before you actually see it.Try to approach the art with an open mind and don't compare it with other works, especially if it's not in the same style.
•Ask yourself how the painting makes you feel.
Instead of trying to evaluate the technical aspects of the art, ask yourself how the art makes you feel.__11__, it has an emotional impact on you.Do be honest with yourself when determining your real feeling.
•Research the artist's life.
Some galleries have an informational plaque (匾牌) near the artwork that describes the artist.Read the informational plaque next to the artwork.This is a great way to better understand the artist and his mindset when he created the art.Most abstract art tries to capture a feeling or emotion like sadness, rage, or happiness.__12__.
•Speak and interact with abstract artists.
If you like, you can find abstract artists in collective studios or at their art shows.__13__.Getting their perspective may give you a deeper understanding and appreciation of their work.
Well now, if you still don't get abstract art and can't appreciate it, try to create some artwork yourself.If you don't know where to start, you can look up tutorials online or take a local art class.
A.Look at the artwork as objectively as you can
B.If it makes you happy, sad, anxious, or excited
C.As long as you understand the techniques used to create the art

F.For example, if the artist witnessed a war, a depressing feeling may be conveyed in his art
G.There are different styles and types of art for you to further research

10.选A 空处为段落小标题。根据对本段的整体理解可知,欣赏艺术品时避免武断或被固有的观念所束缚,要以开放的心态欣赏它,由此可推知,本段主要讲的是要尽可能客观地欣赏艺术品。
