23、ry”可知,该词指的是用涂鸦做标记的人,故选C项。3.D推理判断题。根据第三段中的“artists are reclaiming cities for the public from advertisers”可知,D项正确。4.A推理判断题。根据最后一段提到的艺术家以及最后一句“Graffiti is now sometimes big business.”可知,涂鸦现在已经成为主流,可以让艺术家受益,故选A项。.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了中国独特的传统艺术之一书法。1.considered考查过去分词作后置定语。句意:书法被认为是中国独特的传统艺术之一,它有着大约1 000年的
24、悠久历史。此处Calligraphy 和consider之间是一种被动关系,因而用过去分词作后置定语,故填considered。2.but考查固定搭配。句意:它不仅是一种文化交流的工具,更是一种艺术瑰宝,闪耀着非凡的美。固定搭配not only.but (also).意为“不但而且”。故填but。3.is known考查动词的时态和语态。句意:作为中国艺术的代表,它被称为东方最古老的艺术形式。固定短语be known as意为“作为而著称;被称为”。这里在叙述一个客观事实,且主语是单数第三人称it,故填is known。4.countries考查名词复数。句意:书法在世界范围内产生了广泛的影响
25、,甚至被引入到许多邻国。根据many后面跟名词复数可知,这里用country的复数形式,故填countries。5.requires考查主谓一致和动词的时态。句意:练习书法不仅需要基本的四宝工具,还需要专注力去运用充满液体墨水的软毛笔在纸上写字,因为墨水很快就会扩散。动词不定式作主语,谓语动词用单数形式,且这里在讲述一个客观事实,所以句子用一般现在时态,故填requires。6.where考查定语从句引导词。句意:参见上题。此处paper作先行词,在后面的定语从句中作地点状语,故填where。7.strength考查名词。句意:一旦运笔犹豫,就会产生一个黑色的标记,因此速度、力量和敏捷性是优秀
26、作品的精髓。分析句子结构,这里是并列的名词作主语,所给词strong是形容词,其名词是strength“力气,力量”,故填strength。8.themselves考查反身代词。句意:许多书法家在书写时,会忘却一切烦恼,甚至忘了自己,将一切思想融于艺术之美中。此处用反身代词作宾语,意为甚至忘了“自己”,故填themselves。9.like考查介词。句意:书法就像一面镜子,是心灵的无声反映。介词like意为“像一样”,故填like。10.especially考查副词。句意:虽然各种各样的现代方式已经取代了原来的书法,特别是用毛笔创作的书法,但人们仍然热爱这种古老的形式,并不懈地练习它。此处用副词修饰后面的整个句子,故填especially。- 4 - 版权所有高考资源网
