At the age of thirteen, he went to learn from Domenico Ghirlandaio，who was not only a painter but also an artist.Michelangelos talents became apparent as he worked for Domenico.Within a year or so Domenico sent him to the powerful Medici family to continue his training under the sculptor (雕刻家) Bertoldo di Geovanni.Michelangelo was able to work with some of the finest artists and philosophers of the time.During the next few years，Michelangelo produced many famous sculptures including Madonna of the Steps，Battle of the Centaurs and Bacchus. In 1496 Michelangelo moved to Rome.A year later he was asked to make a sculpture called The Pieta.It would become one of the masterpieces of Renaissance - 2 - art.Today this sculpture sits in St.Peters Basilica in the Vatican.It is the only piece of art that Michelangelo signed. Michelangelos fame (名声) as a great artist began to grow.He returned to Florence and was asked to create a large statue of David.It took him a couple of years to finish the giant statue.The piece of marble ( 大 理 石 ) he began with was very tall and thin.Many people didnt think he could do much with it.He worked without letting anyone see it until it was finished.David became Michelangelos most famous work of art.It is thirteen feet tall and is the largest statue made since Ancient Rome.It is considered by many experts in art to be a nearly perfect sculpture.Today the statue sits at the Academy of Fine Arts in Florence，Italy. 【语篇解读】米开朗基罗是意大利文艺复兴时期著名的艺术家，本文向我们介绍了一些他的生平事迹。 1.

The lives of these people have finally been recorded thanks to the efforts of a Frenchman from Paris called Gin.Gin spent five months in early 2015 exploring the most remote corners of this area， which sits on the edge of the Amazonrainforest， with half its population of only 250,000 living in its capital，Cayenne. - 4 - “I have a special love for the French Guianese people.I have worked there on and off for almost ten years ，”says Gin.“Ive been able to keep firm friendships with them.Thus I have been allowed to gain access to their living environment.I dont see it as a lawless land.But rather I see it as an area of freedom.” “I wanted to show the audience a photographic record touching upon the uncivilized life，”continues Gin.“I prefer to work in black and white，which allows me to show different specific worlds more clearly.” His blackandwhite pictures present a world almost lost in time.These pictures show people seemingly pushed into a world that they were unprepared for.These local citizens now have to balance their traditional selfsupporting hunting lifestyle with the lifestyle offered by the modern French Republic ， which brings with it not only necessary state welfare，but also alcoholism，betrayal and even suicide. 【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。在法国圭亚那地区的热带雨林深处居住着一群土著居民。他们虽然是法国公民，却按照自己的方式生活。一位摄影家的照片使这群土著居民进入公众视野，也使他们逐渐受到现代的法国生活方式的影响。 5Why does the author feel surprised about the indigenous people in French Guiana? AThey seldom follow the French law. BThey often ignore the Guianese law. CThey are separated from the modern world. DThey are both Guianese and French citizens. 【解析】细节理解题。由题干中的 feel surprised 定位到第一段中的信息Surprisingly ， these people live largely by their own laws and their own social customs.，由此可知让作者吃惊的是，这些土著人在很大程度上按照他们自己的法律和社会风俗生活，尽管他们实际上是法国公民，却不遵守法国法律(the French law is often ignored)，故选 A 项“他们很少遵守法国法律” 。B 项应改为 They often ignore the French law.；C 项和 D 项不是作者感到吃惊的原因。 【答案】A 6Gin introduces the special world of the indigenous Guianese as _. - 5 - Aa tour guide Ba geographer Ca film director Da photographer 【解析】推理判断题。根据第四段中的 show the audience a photographic record 以及第五段中的 blackandwhite pictures 可推知 Gin 是一名摄影师，他通过拍摄的照片让观众了解这群土著居民，故选 D 项“一名摄影师” 。A 项“导游” ，B项“地理学家” ，C 项“电影导演” ，均与文中所提供的信息不符。 【答案】D 7What is Gins attitude towards the lives of the indigenous Guianese? ACautious. BDoubtful. CUninterested. DAppreciative. 【解析】推理判断题。通读第三段可知，Gin 对这群土著居民有特殊的爱，他们之间有深厚的友谊。Gin 认为这是一块自由的土地。由这些描述可知 Gin 欣赏这群土著居民的生活方式， 故选 D 项 appreciative(欣赏的)。 A 项 cautious “谨慎的” ，B 项 doubtful“怀疑的” ，C 项 uninterested“不感兴趣的” ，均与文章内容不符。 【答案】D 8What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refer to? AThe modern French lifestyle. BThe selfsupporting hunting. CThe uncivilized world. DThe French Republic. 【解析】词义猜测题。解本题的关键是读懂最后一句话。这些当地居民不得不兼顾他们传统的自给自足的狩猎生活方式和法兰西共和国带给他们的现代的生活方式，伴随这种生活方式的不仅仅有必不可少的国家福利，还有酗酒、背叛，甚至自杀。故 it 指代的是现代的法国的生活方式，A 项正确。B 项“自给自足的狩猎(生活)” ，C 项“野蛮世界” ，D 项“法兰西共和国” ，均不符合此处的语境。 【答案】A .语法填空 Last week，in an unusual way，a stranger treated me with generosity.At an Asian grocery store on a busy evening，I was shopping for the items I needed 1._ my voluntary work of cooking breakfast on Saturday at a shelter for the homeless in San - 6 - Jose.I went to the store 2._ (buy) tofu and vegetables.As I 3._ (wait) in line to finish the purchase，the lady next to me 4._ (approach) me to find out how I was going to consume the big box of tofu I was buying.Enthusiastically，I replied that I was buying food to cook breakfast for homeless people.
