The history of modern art begins with Impressionism, a movement started in Paris in the mid-1800’s. At that time many artists painted in a very traditional way that involved spending hours in a studio, painstakingly (辛苦地) creating paintings that were extremely detailed. These paintings were sometimes of people or landscapes or historical events. In 1863, Edouard Manet exhibited his painting “Dejeuner sur l’erbe” at the Salon des Refuses. The painting caused a commotion (骚动), thus starting the Impressionist movement. Although Edouard Manet is the declared leader and founder of the group, he was not present at the first group exhibition or any of the other eight collective Impressionist shows. The movement gained more attention in the April of 1874 when Claude Monet, Auguste Renoir, Alfred Sisley, and Jean-Frédéric Bazille formed Society of Artists, Painters, Sculptors, Engravers and began exhibiting outside of the official salon. The same year, the term Impressionism was invented by criticizing (批评的) journalist Louis Leroy to describe their paintings, who worked for the magazine Le Charivari.
The Impressionists often paint out of doors and want to show how light and shadow fall on objects at particular times of the day. Their works are sometimes described as “captured moments” and are characterized by short quick brushstrokes (笔) of colour which, when viewed up close looks quite messy and unreal. If we step back from the Impressionist paintings, the colours are blended together by our eyes and we are able to see the painters’ subjects which often show colourful landscapes, sunlight on water as well as people busy with outdoor activities.
【小题1】Before Impressionism, the works of artists were         .

A.quite abstractB.very confusing
C.very detailed D.quite controversial
【小题2】Who first started Impressionism? ___________
A.Claude Monet.B.Edouard Manet.
C.Auguste Renoir.D.Alfred Sisley.
【小题3】 The works of the Impressionists are best viewed         .
A.with imagination B.at a distance
C.outdoors D.in a studio
【小题4】The second paragraph is mainly about ______.
A.the painting style of the Impressionists
B.how to describe the Impressionist paintings

     The Couch Surfing network is an online community stretching across the globe with over one and a
half million members. The basic concept is to provide a platform for travelers to contact people who are
willing to put them up free of charge. Travelers connect with potential hosts online and, if they like each
other, exchange details to make further arrangements.
     Basil is one traveler from Switzerland who is currently couch surfing with a Chinese host in Beijing.
"I thought staying in hostel is nice but you mostly meet foreigners and speak English. If you use Couch.
Surfing
you have chance to meet people living here and really get a chance to know the life of the place
you visit." Basil was speaking during a regular meeting of the Beijing network of Couch Surfing with a
membership of almost 2 000.
     Although some people may have concerns about meeting complete strangers and giving them full access
to your house, Beijing group member Fred Sharp from California says that the Couch Surfing community
is one that generally attracts trustworthy people.
     "I have never had a problem with guests. I'd say that this Couch Surfing community worldwide is a fairly
trustworthy community. Like I say, always be cautious, make sure that you read everyone's profile that you
re considering hosting, and if it doesn't feel right just say 'no', it's ok."
     Originally launched in the US as a non-profit organization in 2004, Couch Surfing is growing fast across
the world. China is no exception with around 30 000 members and hundreds more signing up each week.
One of them is Beijing resident Hai Yan who joined in November 2009. She says the first time she hosted a
guest was a very positive experience. "My first guest was from Italy. He was very kind and helpful. He
bought me a present from Italy, a handbag. It's a famous brand!"
     As the organization grows from strength to strength, hotel owners across the world will be watching
very closely and possibly thinking twice about raising their prices too high.
