8、r D. seldom答案:1解析:such a . that 是固定搭配,that引导程度状语从句。答案:B2解析:从后面的out of gas on a lonely road可以判断用stopped。答案:B3解析:一直要走到找到汽油为止,故用until来引导这个时间状语。答案:A4解析:找到卖汽油的人所以用sell。答案:B5解析:时间状语从句,在我发现一间房子之前。答案:A6解析:这跟前句没有原因、让步、和条件的关系,应该是并列关系。答案:B7解析:a little old lady of long white hair 指长满长长的白发的女人。答案:B8解析:由语境可知,此处指“我
9、已经等你很久了”。答案:D9解析:根据下文的 “Oh, Alfred! Gas? You used to like tea.” 可推知。答案:C10解析:come for some gas 表示“来买点汽油”。答案:A11解析:宾语从句,引导词what在从句中作about的宾语,what she was talking about 指“她正在说什么”。答案:B12解析:这里是表示转折,我解释我要汽油,但她好像没听到似的。答案:A13解析:从上下文可以看出她是在不停地叫我Alfred。答案:B14解析:宾语从句,只要注意时态的一致,还有语序的正确。答案:B15解析:be anxious to l
10、eave 急着要走。即不是说什么,也不是呆在那儿。答案:B16解析:在进退两难时他又发现了另一座房子,所以说是很幸运。答案:B17解析:说的关于前面所经历的事情,所以选experience。答案:C18解析:live by oneself 独自生活,没有人陪伴。答案:C19解析:否定句用anyone。答案:A20解析:再也没有回来,否则现在就不会一人独居了,故never是惟一答案。答案:CBEvery artist knows in his heart that he is saying something to _1_.

11、ut he wants to be something which _3_ been said before. He hopes the public will listen and understand he wants to teach them and he wants them to _4_ from him.What visual artists like painters want to teach is easy to make _5_ but difficult to explain, because painters translate their experiences i
12、nto _6_ and colors, not words. They seem to feel a _7_ selection of shapes and colors is exceptionally interesting for them and _8_ showing to us. Without their work we should never have _9_ these particular shapes and colors, _10_ have felt the delight which they brought to the artist. Most artists
13、 take their shapes and colors from the world of _11_ and from human bodies in motion and repose. Their choices _12_ that these aspects(外表) of the world are worth looking _13_, that they contain beautiful _14_. Contemporary artists might say that they merely _15_subjects that provide an interesting p
14、attern, that there is _16_ more in it. Yet even they do not choose entirely with reference _17_ that character of their subjects.If one painter chooses to paint an injured leg or a lake in moonlight, each of them is directing our attention _18_ a certain aspect of the world.

18、. 连接两个并列分句,not only位于句首时,该分句要部分倒装;此句时态为一般现在时,故选does he。答案:A3解析:艺术家不仅要被认可,而且要创新,即想使他的作品成为以前没有人说过的东西。which代替something作主语为单数,故选has not。答案:B4解析:learn from sb. 意为“向某人学习”。此句意思是:从他身上学到一些东西。答案:D5解析:make out意为“理解、辨认出”。答案:A6解析:shape“形状”。注意下文shapes and colors 也作了暗示。答案:A7解析:certain 意为“某种”。答案:C8解析:worth doing st
