新人教版高中英语选择性必修三课文及翻译Unit1 Reading and ThinkingA SHORT HISTORY OF WESTERN PAINTING西方绘画艺术简史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.什么是西方艺术?很难给出一个精确的定义。

由于西方的艺术风格多种多样，在短短的一篇课文里不可能进行全面的描述。

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。

The Middle Ages (from the 5th to the 15th century)中世纪(5世纪到15世纪)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.在中世纪，西方艺术的目的是向人们传授基督教因此，艺术家对写实场景不感兴趣。

选择性必修三unit1 reading课文翻译加拿大——多元化的国度加拿大如同一朵盛开的花儿，绽放出惊人的美丽与丰富，深受那些喜欢其多元化的人们的青睐。

这是一个幅员辽阔、景色宜人的国家，从大西洋绵延至太平洋。

这也是世界上民族最为多元化的国家之一，有其独特的文化。

组成加拿大的十个省份和三个地区在地理风貌上有很大的差异。

太平洋海岸向东耸立着巍峨的落基山脉，这里有高耸的山峰和被冰川与水流侵蚀而成的深谷。

古老的冰川缓缓移动，向陆地靠近。

种类繁多的野生动物在偏远的森林中漫步。

国家公园的建立使得很多这样美丽的地方成为供公众游玩和欣赏的保护区，如班夫国家公园和贾斯珀国家公园。

加拿大真正独特的一处景点是雄伟壮阔的尼亚加拉瀑布。

水流从瀑布边缘倾泻而下，景色壮观，水声轰鸣。

除了其地理环境的多元化，加拿大的许多农村地区和城市中心还体现了其居民的多元化。

加拿大最早期的一些移民被认为是土著民族的祖先，从现称作西伯利亚的地方经由大陆桥穿越白令海峡而来。

数千年前，他们在这片辽阔的土地上定居。

数百年前，第一批欧洲人也开始在加拿大东部的一些省份定居。

今天，加拿大反映了各种民族背景的广泛融合。

加拿大人口中大约有五分之一是在外国出生的。

例如，主要的族群包括英格兰人、苏格兰人和法国人，而少数族裔包括来自新加坡和太平洋岛屿的居民。

种族多元化相应地导致文化多元化。

如果你发现自己置身于其中一种亚文化中，那么（它的）语言、饮食、建筑、艺术和音乐会说明你邂逅的是何种文化。

例如，在温哥华这个活力四射的城市，加拿大华人的比例全国最高，你可以参加中国新年的庆祝活动，也可以到中山公园喝喝茶。

在蒙特利尔，世界最大的讲法语的城市之一，你可以品尝具有典型法式风味的美食，还可以观赏原汁原味的法式风格建筑。

最后，如果你想独辟蹊径的话，可以去新斯科舍省的布雷顿角岛玩玩。

在岛上你可以随着小提琴的曲调翩翩起舞，领略凯尔特移民的文化和传统。

当你接触到不同的文化时，你可能会产生穿越时空之感。
