21、ses, maybe talk to them a bit,but never once have I watched the needle go in my arm”可知,在献血时他看着天花板或者护士,也许跟护士聊一聊,但从来不看针扎进手臂。据此可以判断,他在献血时很紧张,故A项正确。C(2018济宁市高考模拟考试)Two years ago,Dimas Aliprandi and Elton Plaster didnt know of each others existence.Then they learned they had been switched at birth by mis

128、882)or Camille Pissarros The Boulevard Montmartre at Night(1897)and it is easy to see why the art of Vermeer found its natural audience in Parisian bohemia.All these artists are likely to have known about and admired Vermeer due to the efforts of the critic ThorBrger,a veteran of the 1848 Revolution

132、f Americans cant name who painted Girl with a Pearl Earring.分析:该句为主从复合句。主句使用了so.that.结构,表示“如此以至于”,that引导结果状语从句;该从句中又含有when引导的时间状语从句when a recent survey found that 82% of Americans cant name who painted Girl with a Pearl Earring,在该时间状语从句中,who painted Girl with a Pearl Earring为who引导的宾语从句,作及物动词name的宾语。
133、译文:尽管现今有许多艺术爱好者被Vermeer吸引,但是最近的一项调查发现,82%的美国人不知道戴珍珠耳环的少女是谁的作品,这一发现令人们震惊。9B考查细节理解。通读全文可知,本文共提及Vermeer的五幅画作,包括第二段提及的The Lacemaker、第三段提及的Girl with a Pearl Earring、第四段提及的The Art of Painting、第五段提及的Woman in Blue Reading a Letter和The Little Street,故B项正确。10C考查推理判断。根据第四段最后一句“Even though he worked all his lif
134、e in Delft,he painted only 35 known works and left his family poor when he died in 1675 at the age of 43”可知,尽管他终身在代尔夫特工作,但是直到他在43岁去世时仅留下了35件被人们所知的作品,他是在贫困中离世的;结合第一段第一句“Johannes Vermeer is such a quiet and introspective(内省的)artist that it took hundreds of years for anyone to notice he was a genius”可知
135、,人们在数百年后才发现他的艺术价值;据此可以判断,他没能看到他的作品受欢迎,故C项正确。根据第四段第四句“He was not a star like Rembrandt”可知,他在世时并不出名,故A项错误;根据第四段最后一句“Even though he worked all his life in Delft,he painted only 35 known works and left his family poor when he died in 1675 at the age of 43”可知,他在贫困中离世,并没有给家人带来财富,故B项错误;根据第四段第五句“He obviousl
