Despite the fact that Mona Lisa is one of the most well-known paintings in the world, do you know that it's actually just 30 inches by 21 inches The famous and influential painting of Leonardo da Vinci is housed at the Louvre and is under reliable security, but in May 2022, an angry protester was still able to lob some cake over at it.
The man disguised himself as a senior in a wheelchair, and all of a sudden, he jumped up out of the wheelchair. He tried to break through the painting's protective glass case, and when he failed to do so, he broke some cake directly onto the glass and threw roses onto the ground. He was then taken out of the building by security guards.
As he was taken out, the man was said to have shouted, “There are people who are destroying the Earth... Artists should think about the Earth! All artists should think about the Earth. That's why I did this.”
Experts believe he was able to get so close to the painting thanks to the use of the wheelchair disguise. A museum spokesperson told BuzzFeed News that the museum had been following museum “usual procedures” for visitors with disabilities.
The painting was not damaged, but this was actually not the first time that it had faced the threat of damage. It first became well-known when Vincenzo Peruggia stole the painting in 1911. It took people 24 hours to notice that the painting was stolen, but then it was reported all over the front page of international newspapers. Peruggia was caught two years later and the painting became internationally known after being recovered for the extensive coverage.
In 1956, the painting was sprayed with acid(酸), with the lower part of the painting being affected. Then Ugo Ungaza Villegas threw a rock at the painting, hitting the lower elbow(肘部) of the woman in the painting. Following these events, the painting has been encased in bulletproof(防弹的) glass.
1.What does the underlined word “lob” in paragraph 1 mean
A.Take.　　　B.Paint.　　　C.Hang.　　　D.Throw.
2.Why did the protester pretend to be a senior in a wheelchair
A.To gain more sympathy.　　　B.To destroy the painting.
C.To visit the museum for free.　　　D.To watch the painting closely.
3.What do we know about the protester
A.He was dissatisfied with artists.　　　B.He wanted to draw others' attention.
C.He tried to force the museum to close.　　　D.He fought for the rights of the elderly.
4.What effect did the news reports about Peruggia's act have on the painting
A.It was further damaged.　　　B.It was easier to protect.
C.It became world-famous.　　　D.It led to no more attacks.
B
To say that the Spanish painter Pablo Picasso was a leader in Western art in the 20th century is to repeat an accepted fact, according to Time. “No painter before him had enjoyed such a large following and recognition in his own lifetime.”
Born on Oct. 25, 1881, Picasso had created more than 30,000 paintings, drawings, sculptures and other pieces of art by the time he died in 1973.
That's a long time to paint! The result is not only a lot of art, but a lot of different phases in Picasso's work. On its website, Christie's auction house lists eight different periods in the course of his painting career.
Over a century ago, the painter once said, “Every act of creation is first of all an act of destruction.” So the eight periods are all very different in their choice of subjects and yet unmistakably drawn by Picasso's hands. Financial Express called his style unusual.
As his style changed over time, it became more simplistic. A common joke is that Picasso forgot how to paint. After all, he was classically trained at the School of Fine Arts in Barcelona.
Now he is best known for leading an artistic movement known as “Cubism(立体派)”. It used geometric shapes to create human and animal figures. With this method, Picasso tried to show his figures from multiple perspectives in two-dimensional space. For example, a person's left eye may be shown from the front while his right eye and nose are shown from the side. The result is strange and beautiful, frightening and funny.
Picasso often said that he admired primitive art and drawings made by youngsters. “When I was the age of 14, I could draw like Raphael, but it took me a lifetime to learn to draw like them,” he said. Maybe that's why Picasso is still so popular and wins a lot of reputation. We look at his work and think, “Maybe I could do that!”
5.Which of the following best describes Pablo Picasso
A.Productive.　　　B.Optimistic.　　　C.Traditional.　　　D.Generous.
6.Why did Financial Express call Picasso's style unusual
A.His act of creation was destructive.　　　B.He created a series of simple images.
C.His painting style remained unchanged.　　　D.He drew different subjects in different periods.
7.What is special about a cubist painting according to the text
A.It is rather difficult to understand.　　　B.It shows figures from various perspectives.
C.It covers different subjects at the same time.　　　D.It shows some strange figures.
8.What does the underlined word “them” in the last paragraph refer to
A.Raphael's works.　　　　B.Artists.　　　C.Drawings.　　　D.Youngsters.

1.titled　考查过去分词。句意:在曼谷,一名瑜伽爱好者在名为“梵高再现”的沉浸式文森特·梵高艺术展上摆好姿势准备拍照。分析句子可知,句中已有谓语动词,所以设空处应用非谓语动词;所给提示词title与被修饰词exhibition之间为被动关系,所以用过去分词作后置定语。故填titled。

译文　亮点之一是专门为他的“双正方形”全景画设立的房间,这种全景画是一次技术革命,他使用了非常长且薄的油画布,暗示了电影制作艺术中的宽屏景观。
Ⅲ.A
◎语篇解读　本文是一篇记叙文。文章叙述了世界名画《蒙娜丽莎》自问世以来所受到的破坏,以及人们为此所做的防护措施。
1.D　词义猜测题。根据第二段中的“when he failed to do so, he broke some cake directly onto the glass and threw roses onto the ground”可知,这个抗议者当时应该是把蛋糕直接扔向了保护这幅画的玻璃罩上,蛋糕在玻璃罩上摔烂了;结合画线词所在部分的意思“但在2022年5月,一名愤怒的抗议者仍然能够向它lob些蛋糕”可推断,画线词lob应该表示“扔;投”。故选D。
2.B　推理判断题。根据第二段中的“The man disguised himself as a senior in a wheelchair, and all of a sudden, he jumped up out of the wheelchair. He tried to break through the painting's protective glass case”可推断,这个抗议者把自己伪装成一个坐轮椅的老年人是为了能够毁坏这幅名画。故选B。
3.A　推理判断题。根据第三段中的“There are people who are destroying the Earth... Artists should think about the Earth!”可推断,这个抗议者认为有人正在毁灭地球,艺术家没有为地球着想,说明他对艺术家不满。故选A。
4.C　细节理解题。根据第五段最后一句“Peruggia was caught two years later and the painting became internationally known after being recovered for the extensive coverage.”可知,两年后Peruggia被捕,这幅画因被广泛报道而闻名于世。故选C。

【差距词汇】　1.disguise...as...把……伪装成……
2.extensive adj.广泛的　3.spray v.喷;向……喷洒
4.encase v.把……装箱
长难句
原句　It took people 24 hours to notice that the painting was stolen, but then it was reported all over the front page of international newspapers.
分析　本句为并列复合句,but连接两个并列分句。在前一分句中,It作形式主语,后面的不定式短语to notice...是真正的主语,其中的that引导宾语从句,作notice的宾语。
译文　人们在24小时后才注意到这幅画被偷了,但后来国际报纸的头版都报道了这件事。
B

5.A　细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Picasso had created more than 30,000 paintings, drawings, sculptures and other pieces of art by the time he died in 1973”可知,毕加索是一位多产的画家。故选A。
6.D　细节理解题。根据第四段中的“So the eight periods are all very different in their choice of subjects...Financial Express called his style unusual.”可知,在不同的时期,毕加索的画的主题是不同的。故选D。
7.B　细节理解题。根据题干中的关键词“cubist”可定位到文章的第六段,根据第六段中的“With this method, Picasso tried to show his figures from multiple perspectives in two-dimensional space.”可知,立体派画作的特殊之处是从多个视角展示人物/动物。故选B。
8.D　词义猜测题。根据最后一段中的“Picasso often said that he admired primitive art and drawings made by youngsters. ‘When I was the age of 14, I could draw like Raphael, but it took me a lifetime to learn to draw like them,’ he said.”可知,毕加索常说他欣赏原始艺术和年轻人画的素描画,他花了一生的时间去学习像他们那样画画。所以them指的是上文提到的youngsters。故选D。
