He was a lonely, unhappy man who suffered from mental illness, and he died at the early age of 37.Vincent van Gogh was born in Holland in 1853. His first connection with paintings came in 1869, when he got a job in the Goupil Gallery. He worked for this art dealer in London and Paris for four years, before he became a teacher in England for a short time. He moved back to France in 1877 and soon began to paint. Gogh was influenced by the famous artists that he met in Paris, where he returned to live in 1886. He did not stay long in the French capital. He was attracted by the vivid colors of the countryside and, in 1888, he moved to Aries, a small town in the south of France. There, he painted his most famous paintings, using strong brush strokes and bright colors. Gogh mainly painted landscapes, but he also produced portraits of local people, such as the doctor and the postman. It was around this time that Gogh began to show signs of mental illness. In 1889, following an argument with another artist, he cut off his own ear. For a time, he lived in a mental hospital in Saint Remy. In 1890, Gogh moved to a town called Auvers. For two months, he painted feverishly. Then, one day, he went into the fields with a revolver (左轮手枪) and shot himself. He died from his wounds the next day.11.

He died by accident.BThroughout the history of the arts，the nature of creativity has remained constant to artists. No matter what objects they select，artists are to bring forth new forces and forms that cause change—to find poetry where no one has ever seen or experienced it before.Landscape (风景) is another unchanging element of art. It can be found from ancient times through the 17th­century Dutch painters to the 19th­century romanticists and impressionists. In the 1970s Alfred Leslie，one of the new American realists，continued this practice. Leslie sought out the same place where Thomas Cole，a romanticist，had produced paintings of the same scene a century and a half before. Unlike Cole who insists on a feeling of loneliness and the idea of finding peace in nature，Leslie paints what he actually sees. In his paintings，there is no particular change in emotions and he includes ordinary things like the highway in the background. He also takes advantage of the latest developments of color photography (摄影术) to help both the eyes and the memory when he improves his painting back in his workroom.Besides，all art begs the age­ old question：What is real？Each generation of artists has shown their understanding of reality in one form or another. The impressionists saw reality in brief emotional effects，the realists in everyday subjects and in forest scenes，and the Cro­ Magnon cave people in their naturalistic drawings of the animals in the ancient forests. To sum up，understanding reality is a necessary struggle for artists of all periods.Over thousands of years the function of the arts has remained relatively constant. Past or present，Eastern or Western，the arts are a basic part of our immediate experience. Many and different are the faces of art，and together they express the basic need and hope of human beings.15．The underlined word “poetry” most probably means________.A．an object for artistic creationB．a collection of poemsC．an unusual qualityD．a natural scene16．Leslie’s paintings are extraordinary because________.A．they are close in style to works in ancient timesB．they look like works by 19th­century paintersC．they draw attention to common things in lifeD．they depend heavily on color photography17．What does the author suggest about the arts in the last paragraph?A．They express people’s curiosity about the past.B．They make people interested in everyday experience.C．They are considered important for variety in form.D．They are regarded as a mirror of the human situation.18．Which of the following is the main topic of the passage?A．History of the arts.B．Basic questions of the arts.C．New developments in the arts.D．Use of modern technology in the arts.CNo artist has affected modern art more than Pablo Picasso. The thousands of masterpieces he had created changed the way people thought about art. Picasso was perhaps the most talented and successful artist who ever lived.      Pablo Ruiz Picasso was born in 1881 in a small town on the southern coast of Spain. His father was a  painter  who  taught  art.  Picasso  showed exceptional talent at an early age and，by the time he was in his teens，painted better than his father or any of the local art teachers. At sixteen, Picasso was sent to the Royal Academy of Madrid, where students drew from plaster casts and copied works of the old masters. Picasso felt these assignments were pointless and began to work on his own. Picasso's father soon became angry with his son's rebellious behavior, long hair, and strange clothes. He believed that Picasso was wasting his talent and scolded him, “Why don't you cut your hair and paint sensibly？”      In 1900，Picasso left for Paris — then the center of the art world. He lived in a cold，rundown building, painting constantly, sometimes surviving for days on only a piece of bread. During these years, his art reflected his dismal(凄凉的) surroundings. Homeless outcasts were the subject of many of his fairly realistic early paintings. After seeing African masks and sculptures，his works became more simplified and angular(有角的) leading up to the revolutionary new style known as Cubism(立体主义)．Picasso didn't sell many of his works during these early years. On May 8,1995, Picasso's Angel Fernanadez de Soto was sold at auction for $29 million. The next day Blue Period, one of his later works，sold for $5 million. But he worked continuously, always experimenting with different styles of painting. Though Picasso lived to be ninety－two and became the most famous artist in the world, he spoke of his youthful days in Paris as “the happiest time of my life”．19. This passage mainly discusses ________.    A．Picasso's Cubism as a revolutionary style in art    B．Picasso as a rebel and his art    C．Picasso's life and painting in ParisD．Picasso's influences on the development of modern art20．Pablo Picasso showed unusual talent for painting________.    A．in his early childhood    B．in his early teens    C．at the age of sixteen    D．when he painted better than local art teachers21．Pablo Picasso started to reveal his rebellious spirit ________.    A．when he was a child    B．in his early teens    C．when he was studying in the Royal Academy    D．after he moved to Paris22．What marks something of a turning point in his career as an artist?    A．Those miserable but fruitful youthful days in Paris.    B．Those realistic paintings reflecting dismal social surroundings.    C．The influence of masks and sculptures created by native African artists.    D．Experimenting with new different styles of painting.三、语法填空。阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。One day a farmer’s donkey fell down into a well.
