20、Mirroring Chinas Past:Emperors and Their Bronzes (青铜制品)Chinese bronzes of the second and first millennia BC are some of the most distinctive achievements in the history of art. These vessels (容器) were made to carry sacrificial offerings, to use in burial or to honor noble families in public ceremoni
21、es. When they were found by emperors centuries later, these spiritually significant objects were seen as signs of heavenly messages about a ruler or a dynasty and became prized items in royal collections. This exhibition the first to explore these ancient objects throughout Chinese history presents
22、a rare opportunity to experience a large number of these works together in the United States.Unlike Greek and Roman bronze sculptures of human and animal forms, most objects from the Chinese Bronze Age were vessels for ceremonial use. Beginning with the Song Dynasty (960-1279), emperors unearthed th
23、ese symbolic works and began collecting them, considering them to be evidence of their own authority as rulers. In addition to impressive collections, the royal fascination with bronzes led to the creation of numerous reproductions and the comprehensive cataloguing of palace holdings. These catalogu
24、es are works of art themselves, featuring beautiful drawings and detailed descriptions of each object.From the 12th century onward, scholars and artists also engaged in collecting and understanding ancient bronzes. Unlike emperors, scholars regarded bronzes as material evidence of their efforts to r
25、ecover and reconstruct the past, and they occasionally exchanged them as tokens (象征) of friendship. Today ancient bronzes still occupy a primary position in Chinese culture as historical objects and as signifiers of an important cultural heritage that inspires new generations, as seen in the works o
26、f contemporary artists on view in this presentation.Mirroring Chinas Past brings together approximately 180 works from the Art Institute of Chicagos strong holdings and from the Palace Museum in Beijing, the Shanghai Museum, and important museums and private collections in the United States. By prov
27、iding viewers with a new understanding of ancient bronzes and their significance through time, the exhibition demonstrates Chinas fascinating history and its developing present.28.In what way are Chinese bronzes different from Greek and Roman ones?A.They fascinated the royal family.B.They took anima
28、l or human forms.C.They served ceremonial purposes.D.They were important cultural heritage.29.What does the author think of catalogues of bronzes?A.Unreal. B.Creative.C.Artistic. D.Necessary.30.What can we infer about the exhibition according to the text?A.It is held in China.B.It is arranged by tim
29、e.C.It is organized by scholars.D.It includes modern artworks.31.What does the underlined word “holdings” in the last paragraph refer to?A.Viewers. B.Collections.C.Museums. D.Art dealers.DA parent might place his daughters drawing on the fridge out of a love for his child rather than for the wonderf
30、ul image, but for many people, that children art is actually quite amazing. In fact, adult artists were often inspired by childrens drawing. For the museum-goers out there who tend to point to a piece of modern art and say, “My kid could have made that!” Its worth remembering that often, thats actua
31、lly just what the artist had in mind.For many kids, drawing is exciting not because of the final product it leads to, but because they can live completely in the world of their drawing for a few minutes. Even children are scribbling(涂鸦), theyre representing through action, not through pictures. Lian
32、e Alves, a prekindergarten teacher, recalled a student who presented her with a drawing featuring a single straight line across the page. Alves assumed the child hadnt given too much thought to the drawing until he explained that the line was one of the stems (茎 ) from The Princess and the Pea, one
33、of the fairy tales they read in class.Maureen Ingram, whos a preschool teacher at the same school,said her students often tell different stories about a given piece of art depending on the day, perhaps because they werent sure what they intended to draw when they started the picture. “We as adults w
34、ill often say, Im going to draw a horse, and we set out. and get frustrated when we cant do it,” Ingram said. “Children seem to take a different approach, where they just draw, and then they realize, it is a horse.”And what about those odd or scary-looking drawings? Does that mean kids are telling t
35、hemselves stories that are odd or scary? Its hard to say, but its rarely a good idea to over-interpret it. Ellen Winner, a psychology professor, pointed to parents who worry when their kid draws a child bigger than the adults. Whats most important to remember is that “childrens art has its own logic
36、,” Winner said. “Children are not being crazy.”32. What may the author agree most probably according to the first paragraph?A. Children are more skilled and creative than adults in art.B. There might be similar patterns in artists and kids drawings.C. No one knows what the drawing experience means t
37、o children.D. Parents should become drawing teachers of their children.33. The author gives the example of Lianes student to prove that .A. simple scribbles from children are meaningfulB. not all the children like drawing in the classroomC. childrens drawing is too complicated to understandD. teache
38、rs often find it hard to teach children drawing34. What is most important for children while they are drawing?A. The best image.B. Drawing process.C. A copy of real things.D. The ending of story.35. What should parents do if their children draw things odd or scary?A. Ask teachers to show the childre
39、n how to draw.B. Help the children to draw the picture again.C. Invite other children to have a discussion about the drawing.D. Take it easy and listen to the story behind the picture.第 二 节 (共 5 小 题 ； 每 小 题 2 分 ， 满 分 10 分 )根 据 短 文 内 容 ， 从 短 文 后 的 选 项 中 选 出 能 填 入 空 白 处 的 最 佳 选 项 。 选 项 中 有 两 项 为 多 余 选
