Salvador Dali (1904-1989)was one of the most popular of modern artists.The Pompidou Centre in Paris is showing its respect and admiration for the artist and his powerful personality with an exhibition bringing together over 200 paintings，sculptures，drawings and more.Among the works and masterworks on exhibition the visitor will find the best pieces，most importantly The Persistence of Memory.There is also L'Enigme sans Fin from 1938，works on paper，objects，and projects for stage and screen and selected parts from television programmes reflecting the artist's showman qualities.

The visitor will enter the World of Dali through an egg and is met with the beginning，the world of birth.The exhibition follows a path of time and subject with the visitor exiting through the brain.

The exhibition shows how Dali draws the viewer between two infinities(无限)．“From the infinity small to the infinity large，contraction and expansion coming in and out of focus：amazing Flemish accuracy and the showy Baroque of old painting that he used in his museum-theatre in Figueras，”explains the Pompidou Centre.

The fine selection of the major works was done in close collaboration(合作)with the Museo Nacional Reina Sofia in Madrid，Spain，and with contributions from other institutions like the Salvador Dali Museum in St.Petersburg，Florida.

【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了巴黎蓬皮杜艺术中心展览了萨尔瓦多·达利众多的艺术展品，以帮助人们了解萨尔瓦多·达利的作品风格。

1．Which of the following best describes Dali according to Paragraph 1? A．Optimistic. C．Generous.

B．Productive. D．Traditional.

【解析】 推理判断题。由第一段中的 The Pompidou Centre in Paris is showing its respect and admiration for the artist and his powerful personality with an exhibition bringing together over 200 paintings，sculptures，drawings and more.可知，巴黎蓬皮杜艺术中心的展览汇集了达利200多件油画、雕塑、绘画等作品，由此可以推断出他是一个多产的(productive)艺术家。对于他的“乐观”、“慷慨”和“传统”，文中没有信息句支持。故选项B正确。

【答案】 B

2．What is Dali's The Persistence of Memory considered to be?

- 2 -

A．One of his masterworks. B．A successful screen adaptation. C．An artistic creation for the stage. D．One of the best TV programmes.

【解析】 细节理解题。由第一段中的Among the works and masterworks on exhibition the visitor will find the best pieces，most importantly The Persistence of Memory.可知，The Persistence of Memory是达利最优秀的作品之一，即杰作之一。故选项A正确。根据第一段最后一句．..works on paper，objects，and projects for stage and screen and selected parts from television programmes reflecting the artist's showman qualities.可知是其他作品与 stage，screen，television programmes有关，而不是 The Persistence

of Memory这部作品，故排除B、C、D三项。

【答案】 A

3．How are the exhibits arranged at the World of Dali? A．By popularity.

B．By importance.

C．By size and shape. D．By time and subject.

【解析】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的The exhibition follows a path of time and subject with the visitor exiting through the brain.可知，达利的作品展览是按照时间和主题组织的。对于按照“流行度”“重要性”“尺寸和形状”等这样的形式，文中并无信息支持。故选项D正确。

【答案】 D

4．What does the word “contributions”in the last paragraph refer to? A．Artworks. C．Donations.

B．Projects. D．Documents.

【解析】 词义猜测题。最后一段强调了对主要作品进行了精选(the fine selection of the major works)，又点明contributions来自其他机构，所以可推断出 contributions 应该属于 works 的范畴。故选项A正确。

【答案】 A

B

Agatha Christie said she never knew where the ideas for a new novel would spring from：“Plots come to me at such moments, when I am walking along the street，or examining a hat shop... suddenly a splendid idea comes into my head.”Christie's inspiration came from the world she knew.As a natural observer, her descriptions are often accurate.Her grandson, Mathew Prichard, has described her as“a person who listened more than she talked, who saw more than she was seen”．

Historian C．V.Wedgwood wrote of Christie：“Her social settings, her characters

and her dialogue are always accurately observed.There is no better all-round (全面的) craftsman in the field.”She made notes in dozens of notebooks on potential plots and characters as they came to her.Christie spent her time working out all the details and clues in her head before putting pen to paper.Her son-in-law, Anthony Hicks，once said，“You never-saw her writing.She never shut herself away，like other writers do.”

It was often the most everyday events and casual observations that formed a new plot.Her second book The Secret Adversary came from a conversation overheard in a tea shop.A theatre trip to see the actress Ruth Draper led her to write Lord Edgware

Dies. Murder on the Links was written because of a newspaper article about a suspicious

death in France.A Caribbean Mystery was published in 1964.The Caribbean island was beautifully described and was probably based on St.Lucia，an island Christie had visited on holiday.

Agatha was also an avid reader(酷爱阅读的人)in her youth and throughout her adult life.She quoted much literature in her own writings.Her library ranged from Charles Dickens to P．G.Wodehouse, and Lewis Carroll to William Shakespeare.

5．What can we know about Agatha Christie? A．She was a talkative woman.

B．She closed herself in a room to write. C．She was good at observing things. D．She had a poor memory.

【解析】 推理判断题。根据第一段As a natural observer，第三段的casual observations可知阿加莎·克里斯蒂善于观察事物。

【答案】 C

6．The underlined sentence in Para.2 implies Wedgwood ． A．didn't like Christie's writing style B．didn't think Christie was a great writer C．thought highly of Christie

D．learned a lot from Christie's spirit

【解析】 句意理解题。本句所在段落旨在赞扬阿加莎·克里斯蒂的文学造诣。本句意思是“她在这一领域(文学写作)堪称大师”。

【答案】 C

7．Which book's source came from a theatre trip? A．The Secret Adversary. B．Lord Edgware Dies.
