Unit 1 Cultural relics

Ⅰ.阅读理解

A

(2018·成都高三“零诊”) “Hungary？” I looked at my school headmaster in confusion. “I never mentioned wanting to go to Hungary.” And with that, my adventure started.

My name is Jonathan Diamond and I just finished an amazing school exchange year in Hungary.

Going on an exchange had always been my dream. When my high school offered an all-year program, I jumped at the opportunity. It would pay for almost everything and all I had to do was to get a plane ticket. I knew where I wanted to go: Spain, the country of dancers wearing flowing red dresses. So when I heard that I was going to Hungary, I was pretty shocked. But I decided to make the best of it, since it was, after all, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Before I knew it, I was on the airplane, leaving for Budapest International Airport, Hungary.

I had times when I almost gave up. Hungarian is the hardest language on the planet. Cultural differences occasionally embarrassed both my peer teens and me. I had to give up eating carrots, my beautiful favorite, for they think carrots are rubbish in their country. The change in the landscape was amazing, looking nothing like skyscrapers, bullet trains, cars, and people in tiny houses that I had been accustomed to. Gradually, I fell in love with the relaxing lifestyle, the warm-hearted people, and getting home at 2：30 pm at the latest from school. And I was sad to leave on my very last day.

Having the host family who took me as one of their own members was the best thing I've ever experienced. From my little sisters, I learned how to embrace life to its fullest. From my brothers I learned that it's OK for a boy to run around the house. From my host parents I learned to stay positive, to smile, and that when you pick the right persons and take their hands, suddenly, you become friends.

It's difficult to think of a better-known work of art than Leonardo da Vinci's

Mona Lisa. Michelangelo's The Creation of Adam on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel

comes close, but that's a detail of a huge work, not a work of art on its own. Images by many 20th-century artists like Spain's Pablo Picasso and the US' Andy Warhol are also instantly recognizable. However, no other painting is nearly as famous as the portrait in oils of a fashionable young lady of Florence, Italy.

This painting isn't just famous because the image is now able to be reproduced over and over again. Its fame has at least something to do with the fact that it's a fine piece of work. Da Vinci was a leader in the revolution in painting in the Renaissance period. The Renaissance was more centered around humans than previous 试卷+教案+习题

European culture was, and the Mona Lisa is a fine example of Renaissance humanism. The work is about a person. The woman da Vinci painted does not represent a religious idea, but is an individual whom one feels that one could talk to and know.

And the question of who the woman is has always interested the public. The earliest answer, from 1517, is that she was just a “certain Florentine lady”， but in 1550, famous historian and painter Giorgio Vasari said she was Mona Lisa, the wife of silk merchant Francesco del Giocondo. Over the centuries, a number of other women have been put forth as the model, including a suggestion that da Vinci used himself, looking in a mirror, as well as the idea that she was painted from da Vinci's imagination. The work invites the viewer/reader to discover for himself or herself, perhaps invent, what it means.

Leonardo kept it himself, and took it with him to Milan, Rome, and France, and used it as a “calling card”， said Larry Feinberg from the Art Institute of Chicago—sort of an advertisement：“Hey, look what I painted! I can paint for you, too！”
