　　Jean-Francois Millet(1814—1875)was a French painter who was famous for his scenes of farmers.

　　After his first painting, a portrait(肖像), was accepted at the Salon of 1840, Millet returned to Cherbourg to begin a career as a portrait painter. However, the following year he married Pauline-Virginie Ono, and they moved to Paris. After being refused at the Salon of 1843 and Pauline’s death, Millet returned again to Cherbourg. In 1845 Millet moved to Le Havre where he painted portraits for several months, before moving back to Paris. It was in Paris in the middle 1840s that Millet made friends with many famous artists who had great influences on him. Then he gradually revolutionized his painting style and created his own one.

　　This is the most well known of Millet’s paintings, The Gleaners(《拾穗者》), in which poor women are removing the bits of grain left in the fields following the harvest. A warm golden light suggests something holy(神圣的)in this daily scene where the struggle to survive takes place. During his years of studies, Millet thought about how to best tell the sense of repetition and tiredness in the peasants’ daily lives. Lines traced over each woman’s back to the ground and then back up again and again which means their hard labor. Along the horizon(地平线), the setting sun outlines the farm with its plentiful stacks of grain, in contrast to the large shadowy figures in the foreground(前景). The dark dresses of the gleaners cut strong forms against the golden field, giving each woman a noble strength.

　　In 1857, he presented the painting The Gleaners to the Salon to an unfriendly public.

　　1. The passage mainly tells us　.

　　A. how Millet gained his fame

　　B. one of Millet’s paintings, The Gleaners

　　C. how Millet became a portrait painter

　　D. Millet’s life experience and The Gleaners

　　2. What does the warm golden light in the painting imply?

　　A. Poor women are very hard-working.

　　B. People should go home and have a rest.

　　C. It is a very nice day which promises a good harvest.

　　D. Something related to religion deserves our respect.

　　3. It can be inferred from the passage that　.

　　A. Millet once left Paris but returned later

　　B. Millet’s painting present a happy countryside

　　C. Millet can express his thought very easily

　　D. The public thought highly of The Gleaners at that time

　　4. What does the underlined word “repetition” in the third paragraph mean?

　　A. A creative way of doing things.

　　B. New hope for the future.

　　C. Doing the same thing many times.

　　D. Disappointment with the hard life.

　　5. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

　　A. Millet’s new painting style was influenced by his friends.

　　B. People in Millet’s paintings are often very active.

　　C. Millet was never refused by any club in his life.

　　D. Millet took the career as a portrait painter all his life.

　　Ⅲ. 任务型阅读

　　(2017·安庆模拟)

　　Have you ever intended to be fully absorbed in your work but found yourself distracted by e-mail, the Internet or other things throughout the day?

　　“People often lose their concentration when they are bored, of course, but also when they are engaged in challenging tasks, ”says Peter Bregman. “They sometimes have a feeling to escape from what’s difficult or boring, so they jump out, ”he says. The part of the brain devoted to attention is connected to the brain’s emotional center. Any strong emotion—quarrels with colleagues, problems at home—can interrupt our attention. Studies over the last decade have shown that too much work to do at a time can easily lead to distraction.

　　Refocusing is hard for many people. Robert Epstein suggests the following, “Stop and listen to music for a few minutes. Go for a short walk or take a deep breath, where you breathe in deeply, count to five slowly, hold it and breathe out very slowly. ”This can “blow out all the tension and the unwanted in your mind to restore your focus”.

　　Take more control by structuring your time and becoming more aware of your behaviors. “Setting the phone alarm to go off every hour is my way of creating awareness, ”Mr. Bregman says, “You have to inform yourself that you’ve lost focus in order to do something about it. ”Starting the day with a to-do list is important, such as when to eat, when to go to the gym or take a walk. But if it’s overly ambitious, you will put yourself in a state of anxiety, which makes it hard for the brain to concentrate. “Choosing three or four things as your priority for the day allows your brain to settle down and focus, ”he says.

　　Topic How to become more(1)on the work?

　　(2)of getting distracted ▲People tend to get away from things that they’re(3)up with.

　　▲Strong(4)affect the brain’s part for attention.

　　▲People get distracted easily if(5)multitasks at a time.

　　(6)of strong emotions ▲Having a(7)with a colleague.

　　▲Meeting with problems at home.

　　Tips on holding attention ▲Stop working to restore your focus by(8)your breath and trying different relaxing things.

　　▲(9)your time effectively and create awareness of your behaviors.

　　▲Make a to-do list at the beginning of a working day.

　　▲Focus on 3 or 4 things and get them done(10)for the day.
