21、What do you see when you look at abstract art？Does it make sense to you? Does it look like anything? Is it supposed to be like …?

Abstract art became popular in the early 20th century. Artists did not want to paint, draw, or sculpt things exactly like they looked. They didn’t want their art to be realistic. They were more interested in basic shapes and colours.

Picasso is probably the most famous of these artists. He painted and drew in many, many styles. Sometimes he used a lot of blue colours (his “blue period”). Later, he used more red and pink colours (his “rose period”). Many of his other paintings are called “cubist” because they are made of painted squares.

After a long time, Picasso’s paintings became more and more abstract. He painted people and things using strange shapes. His work was so original that many of his fellow artists didn’t understand it.

Kandinsky, another famous artist, used lines, shapes, and patterns to paint his subjects. His paintings also used strong colours to express feelings.

Other artist like the surrealists, were interested in subconscious(潜意识). Painters like Breton and Magritte used many symbols in their works. The meaning or subject of their work wasn’t always clear. Dali, another surrealist artist, painted pictures that look like dreams.

There are still many abstract artists around the world. That’s the way many artists prefer. They want each person to look at art and find their own meaning in it.

【1】Which would be most like abstract art?

A. A painting of a house.

B. A sculpture of a car.

C. A drawing of two people in a coffee house.

D. A red and blue painting, with no clear subject.

【2】What happened to Picasso’s work after a long time?

A. It became more abstract.

B. It became less original.

C. He only painted with coloured squares.

D. He went from using red colours to using blue colours.

【3】How did Kandinsky express feelings?

A. By using colours and shapes.   B. By painting with a lot of symbols.

C. By painting realistic people.   D. By painting in red and pink colours.

【4】Which of the following is NOT true?

A. Picasso painted in many different styles.

B. Dali was interested in dreams.

C. Abstract artists feel each work of art only has one meaning.

D. Magritte’s art was full of symbols.

22、Choose the best answer (根据文章内容，选择最恰当的答案)

Traditionally, the President is the highest-pad public employee. A salary of $ 400,000, along with other benefits, is paid to the President annually. But President Obama’s income for 2008 was far more than that, according to the White House.

The White House recently published the tax returns (纳税申报单)of Obama and Vice –president Joe Biden. Tax returns are reports of tax that a person has to pay. They often include income information used to calculate the tax. In the US, people whose incomes are over a certain amount have to file tax returns(纳税申报)every year. The tax returns of government officials are open to the public. This transparency helps to prevent corruption(腐败)。

From Obama’s tax returns , we can see that the President and first lady President’s two books Dreams From My Father and The Audacity of Hope(《无畏的梦想》). The two books, published in 1995 and 2006,are very popular and have been on the bestseller(畅销书)list for a long time.

The Obama’s income is down from 2007,when they made ＄4.2 million. However, that is still far more than former US President George Bush earned, who reported a total of ＄719,274 for his final year. The Obamas’ income also greatly exceeded(超出)that of Biden, who reported a family income of ＄2269,256.That’s about a tenth of what the Obamas earned. As Vice-president, Biden earns a salary of ＄220,000.US families earn an average income of about ＄50,000.

The Obama’s tax returns also show that together, the President and his wife paid about ＄933,000 in taxes. They gave $172,050 —nearly 6.5 percent of their earnings —to different charity groups. In the US, if a person gives his money to churches and non-profit(非盈利)organizations, the law reduces his or her taxes. This is one reason why rich people in the US like to give money to charity.

【1】_______had the highest income in 2008.

B．Because it can make government officials well-known to the public.

C．Because it can help government officials to get more money.

23、Some people have to use public transport, some dislike it and still some love it. If everyone has a car and drives anywhere they want to go, there will be serious traffic problems on the road. Luckily, trains are a good form of public transport.

British people use trains a lot. This is especially so for people who are travelling from London to Paris. Every day about 20 trains leave London. They travel at a very high speed and people feel glad that the trains take only 2 hours and 30 minutes to reach Paris. It's much faster to travel by train than by bus or by car. This is because people have to drive cars or buses very carefully and lowly for many reasons, such as speed limits and traffic jams. However, when you are travelling by train, the speed is almost the same and there is no traffic jam for a train.

Besides, Londoners think taking a train is one of the safest ways of travelling on the ground. Trains take quite a number of quality tests while they are made. More importantly, they have to take many safety checks before they are used on the rail track.

What's more, trains in Britain are comfortable and provide fine services for their users. When you are on a London train, you will find that the train has comfortable tables and seats where people can sit. They also provide food services and power plugs(电源插头) for personal computers or mobile phone.
