Land Art, sometimes referred to as Earth Art or Earthworks, is a form of art which involves using physical landscapes to create art, taking art out of the museum 教育配套资料K12

and into the outside world. Modern Land Art movement really got going in the 1960s when American artists began creating Land Art on a large scale. Today, works of modern Land Art can be seen all over the world, sometimes right alongside much older pieces of Land Art created by people who lived thousands of years ago.

Land Art, which is not necessarily unchangeable, can take a number of forms. For example, in 1970 Robert Smithson created the Spiral Jetty(螺旋状防波堤), made of a collection of stones and mud, in the Great Salt Lake. The American artist made a large jetty in a spiral shape which sticks out into the waters of the lake.

Reshaping the landscape is a common characteristic of Land Art, which can be created by moving parts around. People can also add things to the environment to create Land Art, like salt, which is added to the Spiral Jetty. It is possible to use plants. In all cases, Land Art is immovable.

Land Art is designed to gradually form, change, and eventually decay(衰落). That's one of the biggest differences between Land Art and most of the art one sees in the museums. Some works of art can exist only for a few hours or days. Others are exposed to rain and wind so that they develop and decay over time, which is part of the attractiveness in the eyes of the artists.

语篇解读 地景艺术开始于数千年之前，它不同于传统的艺术，主要使用泥土、石块等材料在户外制作艺术品。

1. What can be learned from the first paragraph? A. Land Art was the most popular art in the 1960s. B. Land Art aims to get people interested in nature. C. American artists were the first to create Land Art.

D. People have been creating Land Art for thousands of years. 答案与解析：D 考查细节理解。根据第一段最后一句中的“sometimes right alongside much older pieces of Land Art created by people who lived thousands of years ago”可知，数千年前人们就开始制作地景艺术，故D项正确。

2. What do we know about Robert Smithson? A. He is a great creative artist. B. He lives near the Great Salt Lake. C. He made the most famous Land Art.

D. He was a pioneer in creating Land Art.

答案与解析：A 考查推理判断。根据第二段的第二句“For example, in 1970 Robert Smithson created the Spiral Jetty(螺旋状防波堤), made of a collection of stones and mud, in the Great Salt Lake”可知，地景艺术可以采取多种形式，Robert Smithson在大盐湖中用泥浆和石头制造了螺旋状防波堤；据此可以推断，他是一位非常有创造力的艺术家。

3. One of the unique characteristics of land Art lies in ________. A. showing the extreme beauty of nature

B. developing and decaying gradually over time C. combining the landscapes around completely

D. offering the artists a chance to get close to nature 答案与解析：B 考查细节理解。根据文章的最后一句“Others are exposed to rain and wind so that they develop and decay over time, which is part of the attractiveness in the eyes of the artists”可知，地景艺术会随着时间的推移而发展和衰落，故B项正确。

4. What is the passage mainly about? A. Works of Land Art. B. History of Land Art. C. Changes of Land Art.

D. Introduction of Land Art. 教育配套资料K12

教育配套资料K12

答案与解析：D 考查主旨大意。通读全文可知，本文的主题句是第一段的第一句“Land Art, sometimes referred to as Earth Art or Earthworks, is a form of art which involves using physical landscapes to create art，taking art out of the museum and into the outside world”，结合下文内容可知，本文主要介绍了地景艺术，故D项正确。

(2017·四川模拟)NASA's New Horizons probe(宇宙探测器) flew by Pluto(冥王星) this morning, sending back history's first up－close looks at the vast freezing－cold world. Closest approach came at 7：49 a．m. EDT. To celebrate, NASA gave out the latest photo of Pluto. It showed a reddish world with an amazing heart－shaped feature on its surface.

After today's close encounter, all the nine solar system's traditionally recognized planets have now been visited by a spaceship—a huge project begun in 1962 when NASA's Mariner 2 probe flew past Venus, a planet in the solar system. More than l,200 scientists, NASA guests and important persons, including 200 reporters, watched the flyby live at New Horizons' mission control center.

That close encounter has been a long time coming. The $723 million New Horizons mission was launched in January 2006 but began taking shape in 1989. “New Horizons is ‘a capstone mission’，” Glen Fountain, mission project manager told Space. com. “It is the first completion of the observations of our solar system. It's giving us a new idea about how we human beings fit into the universe.”

New Horizons “faced a crazy number of challenges.” Stern, a driving force behind New Horizons said，“So many people stuck with this for so long. They got knocked down; they stood up. They got knocked down again; they stood up again.”

In a coincidence, today's close approach falls on the 50th anniversary of the first flyby of Mars, another planet, which was completed by NASA's Mariner 4 spaceship.

There are no longer nine officially recognized planets, of course. The International Astronomical Union regarded Pluto as “a dwarf planet” in 2006 in a decision that remains controversial(有争议的) today.

语篇解读 NASA新视野号探测器飞掠冥王星使人类第一次看到了冥王星的清晰照片。 5．Which statement is TRUE according to the passage? A．Ideas still vary in the identity of Pluto. B．Only scientists could watch the flyby live.

C．Mars is the first planet visited by a spaceship.

D．New Horizons mission aimed to observe the solar system. 答案与解析：A 考查细节理解。根据最后一段中的“The International Astronomical Union regarded Pluto as‘a dwarf planet’in 2006 in a decision that remains controversial(有争议的)today”可知，A项正确。故选A。

6．Glen Fountain may probably agree that ________.

A．it is the most difficult to land on Pluto in the solar system B．New Horizons mission is a long and troublesome project C．their strong determination leads to the successful flyby D．people are likely to find new ways to fit into space 答案与解析：D 考查推理判断。根据第三段中的“It is the first completion of the observations of our solar system.It's giving us a new idea about how we human beings fit into the universe”可知，新视野号探测器从冥王星附近飞过，这是第一次完成对太阳系的探测考察，它给了我们一个关于人类应如何融入宇宙的新想法。由此可推知，人们可能会寻找新的方法以融入宇宙。故选D。

7．Which is the best title for the passage? A．A New Horizons Probe B．NASA's Huge Project 教育配套资料K12
