Ⅰ.阅读理解

(2017·郸城一高月考)

When the Apollo astronauts (宇航员) landed on the Moon in 1969,

millions of people were rather sad. The person to blame for this was an

artist named Chesley Bonestell. For many years, Bonestell had been

creating beautifully detailed paintings of the Moon and planets. Viewers

of

his artwork were unhappy because the real Moon did not look like

Bonestell's pictures of it.

As a space artist, Bonestell tried to make his drawings look exciting

and as true as the Moon is. He worked closely with astronomers and

scientists to get the most up-to-date scientific information available. But

in

the 1940s and 1950s, no one had ever seen another planet up close. Yet

Bonestell's paintings looked so real that some people thought they were

photographs.

Even though Bonestell was interested in astronomy, he did not start

out as a space artist. As a young man he studied architecture — the art

and science of designing and making buildings. In 1938 Bonestell became a

special effects artist in Hollywood. It was here that he learned he could

improve his paintings by following the methods used in the movies.

In 1944, a popular magazine published a series of Bonestell's

paintings of the planet Saturn. He drew Saturn as if it were seen by

someone standing on each of the planet's moons. The results were

dazzling.

Within a few years, Bonestell's artwork was appearing regularly in

magazines and books on astronomy and space flight.

Many of Bonestell's artworks had been right all along. But the

biggest surprise was the Moon. Someone asked Bonestell what he was

thinking when he saw the first pictures from the Moon. “I thought how

wrong I was！” he said. “My mountains were sharp (陡峭的), and they

aren't on the Moon.”

But he shouldn't have felt bad. No space artist had ever before taken

so many people to so many faraway worlds. In the years just before the

first manned space flights, Bonestell's artwork prepared people for the

amazing space adventure to come.
