29、By the mid-1920s, Pablo Picasso, one of the most influential artists of the 20th century. had been one of the most celebrated men .In 1957, when Pablo Picasso was in his seventh decade, he joked that x-ray technology might one day reveal a lost work underneath one of his early paintings. Today, that prediction became reality although the technology involved goes far beyond x-rays.
Using hyper-modern tools to peer into one of his Blue Period paintings, researchers have not only shown a hidden piece of art history in astonishing new detail, they have revealed a striking amount of insight into Picasso's creative process and style.
The investigation focused on"La Miséreuse accroupie, "or" Crouching Woman, "painted in 1902 and currently owned by the Art Gallery. The painting, an oil on canvas (画布) piece drawing a crouching (蜷坐的) woman who wears a long coat, shows Picasso’s typical Blue Period colors: grey, green, blue and white. It shows that the innovative modernist was inspired by the lines of an underlying landscape painted by an unknown artist.
The analysis also exposes several changes to the woman described in the painting,many of which Picasso ultimately abandoned. Researchers released their findings on Saturday’s press conference of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in Austin, Texas. “We think now it's a landscape painted by someone enrolled at the fine arts academy in Barcelona, someone in Picasso’s orbit but not in his close circle, ”says Kenneth Brummel, assistant curator of modern art for the Art Gallery of Ontario.
As to why Picasso would have “recycled” another artist’s canvas(油画布), reasons could range from economic necessity, as a young artist still establishing himself, to deep inspiration driven by the lines of the image already laid down there. Picasso often re-used canvases for this reason."
“He didn't shave off the canvas or put a preparatory layer over it,” Brummel says.“ Picasso saw this landscape, found inspiration, and decided he was going to paint it immediately."
【1】According to the text ,the most likely process of Picasso's painting?
①Picasso reused another artist's canvas.
②Inspired by a landscape painting, Picasso decided to paint one too.
③Picasso painted a woman on the landscape painting.
④Not happy with the landscape, Picasso covered it totally.
⑤Picasso made changes to the woman
A．②③④
B．④②③
C．①③⑤
D．②①④
【2】How did Picasso deal with the landscape painting?
A．He reused it because he hated wasting anything.
B．He hid his own paintings beneath the landscape.
C．He took the advantage of it and created a new one.
D．He kept it to himself with the permission of its owner.
【3】What can we infer from the passage?
A．People often celebrated Picasso’s success.
B．Picasso was not well-off when he started his career.
C．Picasso became successful overnight.
D．Picasso was good at imitating other artists’ works.
【4】Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A．Picasso's predication turned out to be joke.
B．High technology uncovered art mysteries.
C．Seeing is not always believing.
D．Lost Artwork Found Under Famous Picasso Painting.

31、
Two years ago, when Jordie Rowland came into the barbershop the first time, it was a “disaster”, 【1】 Lisa Ann McKenzie recalls. The little boy struggled with his parents to run outside the moment he got in the shop. McKenzie ended up walking around the barbershop with Jordie that day, even 【2】 on the floor with him. She finally got in a few quick cuts, but stopped when she saw that Jordie was very upset.
The 10-year-old has autism(自闭症). Even a simple haircut can be painful and 【3】 for some autistic children, Jordie was no different.
McKenzie felt that she’d failed, but it also made her want to do better, “I wanted to learn more about autism so I could 【4】 with him and take away his fear,” says the barber.
After the first unsuccessful haircut, McKenzie suggested to Jordie’s parents that they bring him back every two weeks at 【5】 time. She would cut just a little bit each time, often at no 【6】, and the boy would run around the shop as always. That went on for a few months. McKenzie even went to Jordie’s house to give it a try. No luck.
One day, the 【7】 of the barbershop got mad at McKenzie for allowing a customer to come in after business hours. Frustrated, she left that job. Soon after, she opened her own shop.
Every two weeks, Jordie would come by McKenzie’s shop after it was closed. This 【8】 about eight months.
Then, a few weeks later, they had a breakthrough, McKenzie sang “The Wheels on the Bus” to Jordie. To her surprise, the boy looked at her as if mesmerized(着迷的). Then McKenzie gave him a full haircut for the first time. The moment McKenzie finished her job, she and Jordie’s parents all realized their painfully slow, two-year 【9】 had paid off.
By the time Jordie’s haircut was a success, he was far from her only autistic customer. Word had gotten around town that McKenzie was pretty good with special needs kids. She started cutting the hair of many other “special kids.” She also plans to hold a monthly Sunday set aside only for these beautiful, 【10】 children.
