【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了美国表演艺术家Chita Rivera,其百老汇生涯跨越半个多世纪,凭借才华与坚韧,两度荣获托尼奖,展现了其艺术生涯的辉煌与不懈追求。
1.B　推理判断题。由文章第二段“Rivera first gained wide notice in 1957 as Anita in the original production of the musical play West Side Story. She was still dancing on New York’s Broadway stages a half century later in 2015’s The Visit.”可知,作者提到这两部戏,是为了强调Rivera漫长的艺术生涯。故选B。
2.A　推理判断题。由文章第三段“‘I wouldn’t know what to do if I wasn’t moving or telling a story to you or singing a song,’ she said at the time. ‘That’s the spirit of my life, and I’m really so lucky to be able to do what I love, even at this time in my life.’”可知,艺术对她来说就是一切。故选A。
3.C　代词指代题。由文章第七段中“The second Tony was an especially sweet victory for the star. Just five years earlier, Rivera had been in a serious car accident that broke her right leg.”和“It could have ended her career.”可知,第七段中的it指代前文提到的严重车祸。故选C。
4.C　推理判断题。由文章第七段“The second Tony was an especially sweet victory for the star. Just five years earlier, Rivera had been in a serious car accident that broke her right leg. It could have ended her career. After months of physical treatment to regain her dancing skills, she returned to the stage singing and dancing as energetically as ever. She said, ‘It never entered my mind that I wouldn’t dance again.’”及全文内容可知,Chita Rivera不仅才华横溢,多次获得托尼奖,而且在遭遇严重车祸后,通过数月的治疗重返舞台,展现出极强的决心。因此,最能描述她的词语是“坚韧且有才华”。故选C。
B
【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文,以在大都会艺术博物馆展出的一幅1565年的绘画作品The Harvesters为例,说明了人们可以通过过去的艺术作品了解当时的农业情况。
5.B　细节理解题。根据第一段中“The work describes farmers cutting wheat nearly as tall as they are…”和“Nowadays, if you walk through a wheat field, you basically see wheat is about knee-high…”可知,小麦的高度由几乎和人一样高变成齐膝高,在高度上经历了很大的变化。故选B项。
6.C　推理判断题。根据第三段中“This is one of the best painters ever from that era. So if he paints it like that, that’s the way it must have been.”可知,Vergauwen认为这是那个时代最好的画家之一,所以如果他把它画成那样,那它就一定是那样的。由此可知,Vergauwen认为Frans Snyders画的西瓜是真实的,表示支持。故选C项。
7.B　细节理解题。根据最后一段中“The team hopes to set up an online research database…when they visit a museum or exhibit through the hashtag.”可知,创建社交媒体话题标签是为了收集更多的与植物有关的绘画作品,建立一个在线数据库,提供研究资源。故选B项。
8.D　主旨大意题。根据第一段中“Wheat is just one example of how historical artworks can help track the transformation of food crops over time.”并结合全文内容可知,本文以在大都会艺术博物馆展出的一幅1565年的绘画作品为例,说明了过去的艺术作品可以展现当时的农业情况。故D项(古老的艺术作品揭示了农业信息。)最能概括本文大意。故选D项。

●Ⅴ 阅读理解
A
Famous American performer Chita Rivera died on January 30 in New York. She was 91 years old. The famed dancer, singer and actor won many awards and honours in her long career on Broadway and beyond.
Rivera first gained wide notice in 1957 as Anita in the original production of the musical play West Side Story. She was still dancing on New York’s Broadway stages a half century later in 2015’s The Visit.
“I wouldn’t know what to do if I wasn’t moving or telling a story to you or singing a song,” she said at the time. “That’s the spirit of my life, and I’m really so lucky to be able to do what I love, even at this time in my life.”
Rivera was born on January 23, 1933, in Washington, DC.Her father was a musician. He died when Rivera was seven. Her mother was of Scottish and Italian ancestry (血统).
Rivera studied dance as a young girl and was accepted into a highly respected school for ballet. She was 17 when she won her first part in a musical.
She won two Tonys, the highest award for live theatre in the United States. Her first came in 1984 with the production of The Rink. She won again in 1993 for the play Kiss of the Spider Woman.
The second Tony was an especially sweet victory for the star. Just five years earlier, Rivera had been in a serious car accident that broke her right leg.It could have ended her career. After months of physical treatment to regain her dancing skills, she returned to the stage singing and dancing as energetically as ever. She said, “It never entered my mind that I wouldn’t dance again.”
When accepting a Special Tony Award for Lifetime Achievement in 2018, Rivera said, “I wouldn’t trade my life in the theatre for anything, because theatre is life.”

Pieter Bruegel’s 1565 realistic painting The Harvesters hangs at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. “The work describes farmers cutting wheat nearly as tall as they are,” Ghent University biologist Ive de Smet says. “Nowadays, if you walk through a wheat field, you basically see wheat is about knee-high, which is a result of selective breeding (培育) from the second half of the 20th century.” De Smet says he’s teaming up with art historian David Vergauwen of Amarant to look at things where they can spot differences in shape, in colour and in size. Wheat is just one example of how historical artworks can help track the transformation of food crops over time.
Friends since childhood, they took interest in plants in artworks and began with a visit to the Hermitage Museum in Russia—where they noticed an odd-looking watermelon in an early-17th-century painting by Flemish artist Frans Snyders.
“So if you think of a watermelon, and cut it through, it should be dark red on the inside. But that one appeared to be pale and white.” De Smet assumed the painter had done a poor job. But Vergauwen said, “This is one of the best painters ever from that era. So if he paints it like that, that’s the way it must have been.” Other paintings showed that both red and white watermelons were raised during the 17th century.
The team hopes to set up an online research database of historical plant artworks. They create a social media hashtag (话题标签) for it. Anyone could send pictures of relevant artworks and details of plants when they visit a museum or exhibit through the hashtag. But, they add, the sources need to be realistic. “If you’re going to use, for example, Picasso to understand how a pear looked, you might be misled.”
(　)5.What can we learn from De Smet’s words in Paragraph 1
A.Humans have mainly fed on wheat since 1565.
B.Wheat has gone through great changes in height.　
C.The scene in The Harvesters may be unbelievable.
D.Selective breeding affects agricultural structure.
(　)6.What is Vergauwen’s attitude to the watermelon painted by Frans Snyders
A.Doubtful. B.Disapproving.
C.Favourable. D.Curious.
(　)7.Why is the social media hashtag created
A.To encourage people to focus on art.
B.To collect more paintings for their database.
C.To advertise their research database.
D.To share some historical plant artworks.
(　)8.What is the text mainly about
A.Ancient paintings focused on food crops.
B.Two men create a database of plant artworks.
C.Plants today are different from their ancestors.
D.Old art reveals agricultural information.
