In 1932 he moved to Franc
32、e. His painting styles are Expressionism and Cubism(立体主义). In his paintings, he often painted violinists because he played the violin, so did his uncle. He was also famous for his paintings of Russian-Jewish villages.Salvador Dali Salvador Dali was born in Spain in 1904. When he was a child, he show
33、ed strange behavior and often interrupted his class in school. As he got older, he started to paint pictures that came from his dreams. His dreams and his paintings were scary and unreal. Salvador Dali drew everyday items, but changed them in odd ways. For example, one of his paintings is of melting
34、 clocks.Leonardo Da Vinci In 1452, Leonardo Da Vinci was born in Italia. He lived in the Renaissance, when everyone was interested in art. Even if Da Vinci was a great artist, he became famous because of all the other things he could do. He was a sculptor, a scientist, an inventor, a musician, and a
35、 mathematician. When he was 20, he helped his teacher finish a painting called The Baptism of Christ. When he was 30, he moved to Milan where he painted most of his pictures. Da Vincis paintings were done in the Realist style.Paul Klee Paul Klee was born in Switzerland in 1887. He loved cats. He had
36、 at least 8,926 works of art. In these works of art, he used simple lines and strong colors. He also used simple shapes to make important parts of the painting.

39、ra Chagalls works are about violinistsC. strong colors are used in every Paul Klees paintingD. Paul Klees paintings are mostly from simple shapesB Getting rid of dirt, in the opinion of most people, is a good thing. However, there is nothing fixed about attitudes to dirt. In the early 16th century,
40、people thought that dirt on the skin was a means to block out disease, as medical opinion had it that washing off dirt with hot water could open up the skin and let ills in. A particular danger was thought to lie in public baths. By 1538, the French king had closed the bath houses in his kingdom. So
41、 did the king of England in 1546. Thus began a long time when the rich and the poor in Europe lived with dirt in a friendly way. Henry IV, King of France, was famously dirty. Upon learning that a nobleman had taken a bath, the king ordered that, to avoid the attack of disease, the nobleman should no
42、t go out. Though the belief in the merit of dirt was long-lived, dirt has no longer been regarded as a nice neighbor ever since the 18th century. Scientifically speaking, cleaning away dirt is good to health. Clean water supply and hand washing are practical means of preventing disease. Yet, it seem
43、s that standards of cleanliness have moved beyond science since World War . Advertisements repeatedly sell the idea: clothes need to be whiter than white, cloths ever softer, surfaces to shine. Has the hate for dirt, however, gone too far? Attitudes to dirt still differ hugely nowadays. Many first-t
44、ime parents nervously try to warn their children off touching dirt, which might be responsible for the spread of disease. On the contrary, Mary Ruebush, an American immunologist(免疫学家), encourages children to play in the dirt to build up a strong immune system. And the latter position is gaining some
45、 ground.100. The kings of France and England in the 16th century closed bath houses because .A. they lived healthily in a dirty environmentB. they thought bath houses were to dirty to stay inC. they believed disease could be spread in public bathsD. they considered bathing as the cause of skin disea
46、se101. Which of the following best describes Henry IVs attitude to bathing?A. Afraid.B. Curious.C. Approving.D. Uninterested.102. How does the passage mainly develop?A. By providing examples.B. By making comparisons.C. By following the order of time.D. By following the order of importance.103. What
47、is the authors purpose in writing the passage?A. To stress the role of dirt.B. To introduce the history of dirt.C. To call attention to the danger of dirt.D. To present the change of views on dirt.C Gaudi Nanda sees a wearable computer as a handbagone thats built out of four-inch squares and triangl
48、es of fiber, with tiny computer chips embedded(嵌于) in it. It looks, feels and weighs like your typical leather purse. Thats where the similarities end: This bag can wirelessly keep track of your belongings and remind you, just as youre about to leave the house, to take your wallet. It can review the
49、 weather report and suggest that you take an umbrella. This purse can even upload your favorite songs onto your scarf. Surely, a computing purse and scarf set may seem like the stuff of science fiction. But these devices, part of next generation of wearable computers, could become commonplace within
50、 a few years. Dupont created new super strong fibers that can conduct electricity and can be woven into ordinary-looking clothes. And the chipmaker developed chip packaging allowing wearable computers to be washed, even in the heavy-duty(耐磨损的) cycle. As a result, these new wearable devices are diffe
51、rent from the heavy and downright silly versions of the recent past, which often required users to be wrapped in wires and type on their stomachs. Unlike their predecessors, these new wearable computers also make economic sense. When her bag becomes commercially available in two to three years, Nand
52、a expects it will cost around $150, which is the price of an average leather purse. Heres how the bag works: You place a special radio-signal-transmitting chip onto your wallet. A similar radio in your purse picks up the signal and notifies you that youve forgotten to take your wallet. In turn, sens
53、ors on your purses handles will notify the computer that youve picked up the purse and are ready to go. Already, these new kinds of wearable devices are being adopted for use in markets like auto repair, emergency services, medical monitoringand even, increasingly, for consumers at large. Indeed, mo
54、re people will want to cross that bridge in the coming yearsmaking for a booming market for wearable computers that dont look like something out of science fiction.104. According to the passage, the new wearable computers .A. require users to operate on the stomachB. pick up the signals through wire

The new wearable computers have become fashionable.B. People would like to learn more about the new computers.C. New wear

57、ts our lifeD An 800-year-old merchant ship was raised from the bottom of the South China Sea on Saturday, loaded with precious trading goods that might confirm the existence of an ancient maritime trade route linking China and the West. The 30-meter (100-foot) wooden ship contained thousands of gold
58、, silver and porcelain(瓷器) trading goods. Named the Nanhai No.1 or South China Sea No. 1 by archaeologists(考古学家), the ship was discovered in 1987 off the coast of Guangdong province, buried in two meters (6.5 feet) of mud at a depth of 30 meters. It was supposed to have been raised from the seabed o
59、ff South China in October, but strong wind and technical faults stalled the operation. The earliest possible timetable is late December. The Nanhai will be pulled into a 150 million yuan ($20 million) museum built to house it in Guangdong, where it will be placed in a tank called the crystal palace
60、with the same water temperature and pressure that it experienced on the seabed. The museum is expected to open by the end of next year and visitors will be able to watch excavation(出土文物) of the ship through windows in the sides of the tank. More than 4,000 gold, silver and porcelain containers have
61、been found on the Nanhai, one of the biggest and oldest merchant ships ever recovered in China. Also discovered were 6,000 copper coins from the Song Dynasty (960-1279 AD), when the boat was built. The Nanhai could provide evidence of a Marine Silk Road linking Chinas Guangdong and Fujian provinces
62、to Southeast Asia, Africa and Europe, similar to the better-known, overland Silk Road stretching across central Asia into Europe.
