2024届高考英语大一轮复习综合训练:必修2 Module 4《Fine Arts—Western Chinese and Pop Arts》(外研版含解析)

  第一部分 必修二 Module 4

  Ⅰ.阅读理解

  The values of artistic works,according to cultural relativism (相对主义),are simply reflections of local social and economic conditions.Such a view,however,fails to explain the ability of some works of art to excite the human mind across cultures and through centuries.

  History has witnessed the endless productions of Shakespearean plays in every major language of the world.It is never rare to find that Mozart packs Japanese concert halls,as Japanese painter Hiroshige does Paris galleries.Unique works of this kind are different from today's popular art,even if they began as works of popular art.They have set themselves apart in their timeless appeal and will probably be enjoyed for centuries into the future.

  In a 1757 essay,the philosopher David Hume argued that because “the general principles of taste are uniform (不变的) in human nature,”the value of some works of art might be essentially permanent.He observed that Homer was still admired after two thousand years.Works of this type,he believed,spoke to deep and unvarying features of human nature and could continue to exist over centuries.

  Now researchers are applying scientific methods to the study of the universality of art.For example,evolutionary psychology is being used by literary scholars to explain the long­lasting themes and plot devices in fiction.The structures of musical pieces are now open to experimental analysis as never before.Research findings seem to indicate that the creation by a great artist is as permanent an achievement as the discovery by a great scientist.

  语篇解读:本文是说明文,主要介绍了根据文化相对主义,艺术作品永恒受欢迎的原因是人类的审美具有共同性,并且就此展开说明。

  1.According to the passage,what do we know about cultural relativism?

  A.It introduces different cultural values.

  B.It explains the history of artistic works.

  C.It relates artistic values to local conditions.

  D.It excites the human mind throughout the world.

  答案:C 推理判断题。根据第一段第一句话,可知根据相对主义,艺术作品就是把艺术的价值与当地的社会经济条件结合在一块,故选C项。

  2.In paragraph 2,the artists are mentioned in order to show that ______.

  A.great works of art can go beyond national boundaries

  B.history gives art works special appeal to set them apart

  C.popular arts are hardly distinguishable from great arts

  D.great artists are skilled at combining various cultures

  答案:A 推理判断题。第二段提及的艺术家的作品在历史长河中跨越了国界,因此可知艺术作品是没有国界的,故选A项。

  3.According to Hume,some works of art can exist for centuries because ______.

  A.they are results of scientific study

  B.they establish some general principles of art

  C.they are created by the world's greatest artists

  D.they appeal to unchanging features of human nature

  答案:D 推理判断题。根据第三段第一句话可知,David曾辩论到人性对于艺术鉴赏的总原则是不变的,所以一些艺术是可能永生的,故选D项。

  4.Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage?

  A.Are Artistic Values Universal?

  B.Are Popular Arts Permanent?

  C.Is Human Nature Uniform?

  D.Is Cultural Relativism Scientific?

  答案:A 标题归纳题。本文主要从相对论的角度来说,艺术的价值只能反应当时的社会经济,但作者提出了不同的观点,故选A项。

  Ⅱ.七选五

  根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

  How do you stay true to yourself when you're surrounded by friends and/or family that have an opinion on everything you do? It's not easy! __1__ Here are four tips which can help you live a dynamic life.

  __2__

  Stay true to yourself by listening to the only opinions that really matter—your own and those from people who believe in and encourage you. Deep down you know yourself better than anybody else.

  Don't fear people

  __3__ The reason most people don't take risks, or live on the edge is the fear of what others might think of them. If you want to live the life you truly deserve, you must give up the need to be liked by everybody.

  Value yourself and your choices

  When you do, others will too. Own the choices you make in your life.__4__ When you believe in yourself, in time, others will believe in you too. Show confidence in your choices, and what you stand for whether others agree or not.

  Focus on appreciation

  No matter what the circumstances are, there is always something to be grateful for. All successful people ask,“What am I grateful for? How can I improve my situation and use these tough times to inspire others?” __5__

  These steps, if applied, will help you transform your peace of mind, lifestyle, and productivity.

  A.Focus on your own talents and strengths

  E.Stay fearless in everything you will have to do.

  F.Be thankful to life and be helpful to others, and you'll lead a successful life.

  G.However,there are great possibilities that you can lead the life you really want.

  语篇解读:本文为说明文。作者给出了几个如何使你忠于你自己(stay true to yourself)的建议。

  1.G 本段的功能是提出主题。只有告诉读者忠于自己是可能的,才能接下面的句子。由此可见答案为G项。

  2.B 根据本空下面的内容可知本段的主题是:永远不要让别人的观点影响你的选择。故答案为B项。

  3.E 根据主题“Don't fear people”中的fear及E项中的fearless可推知E项为答案。

  4.D D项(When you doubt yourself,others will doubt you.)与下面的“When you believe in yourself,in time,others will believe in you too.”构成对比。

  5.F 根据本部分中的appreciation,grateful和F项中的thankful可判断F项为本题答案。
