背景导学
It’s OK to say you’ve never heard of Grime-unless yon’re from the UK. That’s
because this music was invented in the UK in the early 2000s.
To someone who’s not familiar with underground music culture, it’s easy to get
confused between hip hop and Grime since they are both noisy. And many people didn’t
bother to tell them apart, until earlier this month when Grime stars like Stormzy
and J Hus led this year’s MOBO Awards—“Music of Black Origin”—an award in the
UK.
Just like UK electronic music and hip hop, from which Grime drew influence, it mostly
reflects the thoughts of young people. But different from hip hop, Grime singers
sing in dialect with strong accents, giving a special flavor to their songs. Lady Leshurr, known as the “Grime Queen”, said that she once tried to hide her
accent, as she didn’t want people to judge her. But one day, she realized that she
didn’t need to change herself just to please others. And there’s no doubt that
this is the most basic and important quality of Grime music: be yourself.
Also different from the hip hop culture, which usually focuses on being rich, Grime
singers pay more attention to social phenomena like the European refugee problem
and the gap between the rich and the poor.
Although still quite young, Grime seems to be getting favored by more and more people.
In 2016, the English Grime musician Skepta won the Mercury Prize with his album
Konnichiwa, beating big names like David Bowie and Radiohead. However, whether Grime
is one day accepted by the mainstream music world or not, one thing is for sure:
in Grime, singers always stay true to themselves.

教材原文 教材译文 A SHORT HISTORY OF WESTERN PAINTING
What is Western art? It is hard to give a
precise definition. As there have been so
many different styles of Western art, it
is impossible to describe them all in a
short text. Perhaps the best way to
understand Western art is to look at the
development of Western painting over the
centuries.
The Middle Ages (from the 5th to the 15th
century)
During the Middle Ages, the purpose of
Western art was to teach people about
Christianity. Thus, artists were not
interested in painting realistic scenes.
Their works were often primitive and
two-dimensional, and the main characters
were often made much larger than everyone
else to show their importance. This began
to change in the 13th century with Giotto
di Bondone (1267-1337). While his
paintings still had religious themes, they
showed real people in a real environment.
In particular, his paintings are set apart
from other paintings by their realistic
human faces and deep emotional impact.
The Renaissance (from the 14th to the 17th
century)
New ideas and values gradually replaced 西方绘画简史
什么是西方艺术?很难给出一个准确的定义。由于西方艺术的风格迥异,用一篇简短的文章把它们都描述出来是不可能的。也许了解西方艺术的最好方法就是看看几个世纪以来西方绘画的发展历程。
中世纪(5至15世纪)
在中世纪,西方艺术旨在向人们宣传有关基督教的知识。因此,艺术家们对描绘写实的场景并不感兴趣。他们的作品通常较为原始且二维化,主体人物往往被塑造得比其他人大很多,以此来彰显他们的重要性。13世纪, 随着乔托·迪·邦多纳(1267—1337)的出现,这种情况开始发生变化。虽然他的画作仍然有宗教主题,但它们展示了真实环境中的真实人物。他的绘画作品尤其因逼真的人物面貌和深刻的情感冲击而有别于其他绘画作品。
文艺复兴时期(14至17世纪)
新的观念和价值观逐渐取代了中世纪的旧观念和价值观。因此,画家们对宗教题材的关注变少了。他们开始对生活采取更具人文主义的态度。这一时期的一个重要突破就是马萨乔(1401—1428)对透视法的运用。一些颇具影响力的画家,例如莱昂纳多·达·芬奇(1452—1519)、米开朗基罗(1475—1564)和拉斐尔(1483—1520), 在乔托和马萨乔的创新基础上继续发展,创作出了欧洲前所未见的一些最伟大的艺术作品。
另一个创新是油画颜料的使用。因其深
