  Most painters discover a style of painting that is fit for them and stick to that, especially if people admire their pictures.But Picasso, the great Spanish painter, was like a man who had not yet found his own particular style of painting.He kept on struggling to find the perfect expression till his death in 1973.

  Some of Picasso’s paintings are rich, soft colored and beautiful.Others are ugly and cruel and strange.But such paintings allow us to imagine things for ourselves.They force us to say to ourselves,“What does he see that makes him paint like that?”And we begin to look under the surface of the things we see.

  Picasso painted thousands of pictures in different styles.Sometimes he painted the natural look of things.Sometimes he seemed to break them apart and throw the pieces in our faces.He showed us what the mind knows as well as what the eyes see.At the age of 90, he remained as curious about the world as he had been when he was young.That is why people have called him “the youngest painter in the world”.

本文作者的写作意图是介绍毕加索的绘画风格,虽然介绍了他不同于一般画家,好像还没找到自己的风格,但这正是毕加索的伟大之处,“不拘风格”即是他的绘画风格。

(3)

结合上下文看,该句介绍的是毕加索的绘画风格之一,句中he seemed to…说明“好像那样”,但并非真正撕碎等。

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

  A new study warns that about thirty percent of the world's people may not have enough water by the year 2025.

  A private American organization called Population Action International did the new study. It says more than three hundred and thirty five million people lack enough water now. The people live in twenty eight countries. Most of the countries are in Africa or the Middle East.

  PAI researcher Robert Engelman says by the year 2025, about three thousand million people lack water. At least 18 more countries are expected to have serious water problems. The demand for water keeps increasing. Yet the amount of water on Earth stays the same.

  Mr Engelman says the population in countries that lack water is growing faster than in other parts of the world. He says population growth in these countries will continue to increase.

  The report says lack of water in the future may result in several problems. It may increase health problems. Lack of water often means drinking water is not safe. Mr Engelman says there are problems all over the world because of diseases such as cholera that are carried in water.

Some countries now get sixty percent of their fresh water from other countries. This is true of Egypt, the Netherlands, Cambodia, Syria, Sudan and Iraq.
