It is not only a country of great food, fashion and art. It’s also home to the most influential painters in the world.Edouard ManetHe was one of the first artists to paint modern life. He began to paint in his own style, but still used some of Couture’s techniques like thick lines and dark colors. He was greatly influenced by Claude Monet and Berthe Morisot, which can be seen in his use of light shades. Most of his paintings had scenes of daily life on the streets of Paris. His works include Olympia and The Absinthe Drinker.Camille PissarroIn his early years, Pissarro painted scenes of a river or a path from memory. After meeting Claude Monet and Paul Cezanne, who painted in a more realistic style, he changed his course to Impressionism. During his career, he experimented with various styles, and finally formed his own one. His works include Old Market at Rouen and Sunset at St. Charles.Vincent van GoghHe had a huge influence on art in the 20th century. His early works were most painted in somber tones. However, influenced by Monet, Pissarro, and Bernard, he adopted brighter colors in his works, and started creating his own techniques. Although he had produced more than 2,000 works of art, the artist sold only one painting during his lifetime — Red Vineyard at Arles. His works include The Potato Eaters, Starry Night and Bedroom in Arles.Claude MonetHe was the founder of the Impressionist movement and completely changed the French painting in the 19th century. Although he first started by selling charcoal caricatures（木炭讽刺画）in Paris, he soon started painting with oil after meeting Eugene Boudin, who taught him to use oil paints and also encouraged him to paint outdoors. And then he painted with his own style. His works include Impression, Sunrise and The Water Liles.1. What can we learn about Edouard Manet’s paintings?A. They reflected the changes of life.B.

Of course we were worried; we had just moved from Berlin, and she was just 8. But when she came home, we realized we had no reason to panic. Beaming with pride, she told us how she had discovered the little park around the corner, and had made friends with a few local dog owners. When this story comes up in conversations with American friends, we usually meet with polite disbelief. Most are horrified by the idea that their children might roam(闲逛) around without adult supervision(监管). A study by the University of California has found that American kids spend 90 percent of their free time at home, often in front of the TV or playing video games. Such narrowing of children's world has happened across the developed world. But German parents are generally much more accepting of letting children take some risks. “We are depriving(剥夺) them of opportunities to learn how to take control of their own lives,” writes Peter Gray, a research professor at Boston College. He argues that this increases the chance that they will suffer from anxiety, depression, and various other mental disorders, which have gone up dramatically in recent decades(十年). I am no psychologist like Professor Gray, but I know I won't be around forever to protect my girls from the challenges life holds in store for them. And by giving kids more control over their lives, they learn to have more confidence in their own abilities.8. Hearing the author's daughter exploring the new neighborhood alone, his American friends feel________.A. worried         B. proud    C. doubtful       D. terrified9. We can conclude from Paragraph 3 that ________.A. American kids enjoy playing at homeB. German parents are less protective than American parentsC. German kids like taking risks more than American kidsD. American parents don't limit their children's activities in their leisure time10. It's implied from Professor Gray's words that ________. A. parents should always be around their children to protect them from risksB. more and more parents suffer from mental problems C. children are having more opportunities to take control of their livesD. giving children more freedom is beneficial to their mental development11. Which of the following words can best describe the author's parenting?A. Open-minded.  B. Irresponsible.  C. Careless.   D. Protective.  DGoldfish have pretty boring lives, so maybe it’s a good thing they can only concentrate for nine seconds! But according to new research, humans are becoming like goldfish. Our attention span (时长) is getting shorter ...and it’s all because of technology.　　“We move quickly from one site to another on the web, ”says Doctor Ted Selker, a computer scientist from Massachusetts, “and we are losing the ability to concentrate.” With millions of websites to choose from, the attention span of the average internet user is just seconds. There are other digital distractions（分心）too: email, instant messaging and quickie movies on websites. Some people are worried about the effect on young people. “You need time to understand and think about what you read,” says Julia Wood, from London. “Young people search the net all the time and their brains become full of useless information but there is no time to make sense of it. I am trying to persuade my pupils to read more books, so that they concentrate on one subject for longer.”　　Other teachers are trying more unusual methods to improve students’ concentration. Anne Savan, from Wales, was so worried about her students that she started playing Mozart during her science lessons. She says that it had an amazing effect: “The music made them calmer, and their concentration was much better.”　　But not everyone believes that there is a problem. Ray Cole, an educational psychologist says: “On the web, young people learn to make quick decisions about what is and isn’t worth reading.They might look at five unhelpful websites very quickly, before stopping and reading a sixth useful website more carefully. In a world with so much information available, this is an important skill.”12. Why does the writer mention “goldfish”?A. To analyze data.     B. To introduce a topic.C. To settle problems.    D. To suggest a way out.13. What may cause a shorter attention span according to Dr. Ted Selker?A. Skipping around the internet.  B. Time to digest information.             C. Traditional methods of reading.     D. Making decisions.14. What will help students overcome a short attention span?A. Receiving emails.    B. Texting messages.C. Reading more books.     D. Watching quickie movies.15. What is Ray Cole’s attitude towards looking through websites quickly?A. Cautious.      B. Unfavorable.       C. Skeptical.         D. Supportive.第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Reading books is one of the best hobbies.
