　　Children told to go play outdoors in a new nature campaign

　　The Wild Network aims to get school children off their computers and outdoors to experience the wonders of the wilderness.

　　A campaign is being launched in the UK to encourage children to give up 30 minutes of screen time a day to take part in the outdoor games.

　　The newly formed Wild Network，which consists of nearly 400 organizations，is attempting to attract school children away from television and computer screen and into fields，woods and parks.

　　Organizers say it is the UK’s biggest ever campaign to reconnect children with nature and outdoor play，and claim it could help improve fitness，mental alertness and general well­being.

　　A documentary film，Project Wild Thing，will be shown at more than 50 cinemas across the UK from Friday.it looks at the increasingly fragile (脆弱的)link between children and nature.

　　Members of the network include the National Trust，RSPB，Play England and the National Health Service sustainable(可持续的) development unit.

　　Andy Simpson，chairman of the Wild Network，said，“The tragic truth is that kids have lost touch with nature and the outdoors in just one generation.”

　　“Children seldom get in touch with nature，so time spent outdoors is down.Activity levels are declining(下降) and the ability to identify common species has been lost.”

　　Suggestions of how to get more time in nature include collecting conkers，camping or snail racing，and observing autumn colour on trees.

　　From January，the network will aim to make suggestions for decision­makers on how government can do more to get children muddy and bright­eyed.

　　This is not the first time that the message of less screen，more play has been brought up.Children in the 1980s were

　　begged to do the same by the BBC TV series Why Don’t You，which called on its viewers to “switch off your TV set，and do something less boring instead”．

　　1．The Wild Network was set up in order to

　　.

　　A．monitor students’ behavior at school

　　B．help students know more about science

　　C．reduce students’ time spent in classrooms

　　D．encourage students to play outdoor games

　　答案　D

　　解析　细节理解题。根据文章的前两段可知，名为“the Wild Network”的组织最近在英国成立，旨在鼓励孩子们远离电视、电脑，选择去参加户外活动。

　　2．What do we know about Project Wild Thing?

　　A．It was specially produced by the Wild Network.

　　B．Nearly 400 organizations worked together to make it.

　　C．It is about the relationship between children and nature.

　　D．It has been shown at over 50 cinemas across the world.

　　答案　C

　　解析　细节理解题。根据第五段内容可知，一部名为Project Wild Thing的纪录片将于周五开始在英国50多家电影院上映。这部纪录片反映了儿童与大自然之间越来越脆弱的联系。故选C项。

　　3．According to Andy Simpson，nowadays kids

　　.

　　A．have little connection with nature

　　B．live farther away from the country

　　C．know the name of common species

　　D．prefer going camping to staying at home

　　答案　A

　　解析　细节理解题。根据第七、八段中Andy Simpson说的话可知，在这一代人中，孩子失去了与大自然接触的机会。

　　4．Which of the activities would NOT be encouraged by the Wild Network?

　　A．Playing on the beach.

　　B．Exercising in the gym.

　　C．Going fishing.

　　D．Bird­watching.

　　答案　B

　　解析　推理判断题。根据短文内容可知，the Wild Network主要鼓励孩子们到户外活动。第九段关于如何增加孩子们的户外活动时间的建议包括：收集板栗游戏、露营或蜗牛赛跑和观察秋色。到体育馆锻炼属于室内活动，因此B项可被排除。

　　B

　　Soutine was born in Belarus (then part of the Russian Empire) in 1893.He was the tenth of eleven children.From 1910 to 1913 he studied in Vilnius at the Vilna Academy of Fine Arts.In 1913，he emigrated to Paris，where he studied at the École des Beaux­Arts under Fernand Cormon.He soon developed a highly personal vision and painting technique.

　　For a time，he and his friends lived at La Ruche，a residence for struggling artists in Montparnasse where he became friends with Amedeo Modigliani.Modigliani painted Soutine’s portrait several times，most famously in 1917，on a door of an apartment belonging to Léopold Zborowski，who was their art dealer.Zborowski supported Soutine through World War ，taking the struggling artist with him to Nice to escape the German bombing of Paris.

　　After the war，Paul Guillaume，a highly influential art dealer，began to champion Soutine’s work.In 1923，in a showing arranged by Guillaume，the prominent American collector Albert C．Barnes bought 60 of Soutine’s paintings on the spot.Soutine，who had been virtually penniless in his years in Paris，immediately took the money，ran into the street，hailed a Paris taxi，and ordered the driver to take him to Nice，on the French Riviera，more than 400 miles away.

　　Soutine once horrified his neighbors by keeping an animal carcass in his studio so that he could paint it (Carcass of Beef)．The smelly smell drove them to send for the police，whom Soutine promptly lectured on the relative importance of art over hygiene.There’s a story that Marc Chagall saw the blood from the carcass leak out onto the corridor outside Soutine’s room，and rushed out screaming，“Someone has killed Soutine.”

　　Soutine painted 10 works in this series，which have since become his most well­known works.His carcass paintings were inspired by Rembrandt’s still life of the same subject，which he discovered while studying the Old Masters in the Louvre.Soutine produced the majority of his works from 1920 to 1929.

　　5．It can be learned from the text that Soutine

　　.

　　A．was the last but one child in his family

　　B．moved to Paris at the age of 18

　　C．painted portraits several times for Modigliani

　　D．was a great German painter

　　答案　A

　　解析　细节理解题。由第一段中的“He was the tenth of eleven children.”可知，他排行第十，即十一个孩子中的倒数第二个。

　　6．Which of the following can be described as Soutine’s painting instructor?

　　A．Zborowski.

　　B．Paul Guillaume.

　　C．Fernand Cormon. D．Marc Chagall.

　　答案　C

　　解析　细节理解题。由第一段中的“where he studied at the École des Beaux­Arts under Fernand Cormon”可知答案应为C。Zborowski和Paul Guillaume是艺术品商人；D的身份在文中并没有提及。

　　7．What does the underlined word “champion” in the passage mean?

　　A．Hold first place in.

　　B．Protect.

　　C．Fall in love with.

　　D．Guide.

　　答案　B

　　解析　词义猜测题。由第三段前两句可知，Guillaume是个艺术品商人，还为苏丁安排画展，可以推知，他应是捍卫或保护苏丁的画，故选B。

　　8．What are the last two paragraphs mainly about?

　　A．Soutine’s painting style.

　　B．Soutine’s personal life.

　　C．Soutine’s strange behavior.

　　D．Soutine’s masterpiece.

　　答案　A

　　解析　段落大意题。综合文章最后两段内容可知，这两段主要是说苏丁的绘画风格。
