Question

【题目】Many of van Gogh’s paintings were inspired by warm, yellow sunlight because he loved how it could light up the world in different ways. His painting Sunflowers, for example,【1】(fill) with vivid yellows and browns. These colors give 【2】painting a feeling of warmth and well-being. However, the sunflowers are actually dead and dying.

Van Gogh’s most famous painting. The Starry Night, takes this 【4】(mix) of joy and sadness one step further. It is a landscape full of deep blues and shadows 【5】represent the sadness van Gogh was feeling as he 【6】(paint), rather than what he was actually seeing.

This is why van Gogh’s 【7】(image) in his painting look more imagined than real. The stars and moon in The Starry Night are 【8】(unusual) bright, 【9】(they) light swirling(旋动) above the darkening hills. A tree that looks like black fire cuts through the view of the night, 【10】(interrupt) its beauty.

【解析】本文主要是介绍画家梵高的一些名作。

【1】is filled 考查时态和语态。本文用现在时态描述，故此处也用现在时。be filled with“充满……”，是固定结构，故填is filled。

【2】 the 考查定冠词。此处为特指，故用the。

【3】with 考查介词。此处为固定搭配：combine……with……“把……和……结合起来”。

【4】mixture 考查名词。此处作动词take的宾语，故用名词形式，意为“快乐和悲伤的混合”。

【5】which/that 考查定语从句。此处为定语从句，先行词为landscape，且从句缺少主语，故填which/that。

【6】was painting 考查时态。此处意为“他在作画的时候”，故用过去进行时。

【7】images 考查名词。所有格后接名词，且此处应用复数，不只一种形象，故填images。

【8】unusually 考查副词。此处为副词修饰形容词，故填unusually。

【9】their 考查代词。此处作定语修饰后面的名词light，故填their。

【10】interrupting考查非谓语动词。此处填非谓语，因为后面不是句子，逻辑主语是前面整个句子，为主动关系，故填interrupting。
