Page 1 of 7 Lesson 26 The best art critics知识清单 I am an art student and I paint a lot of pictures. Many people pretend that they understand modern art. They always tell you what a picture is 'about'. Of course, many pictures are not 'about' anything. They are just pretty patterns. We like them in the same way that we like pretty curtain material. I think that young children often appreciate modern pictures better than anyone else. They notice more. My sister is only seven, but she always tells me whether my pictures are good or not. She came into my room yesterday. 'What are you doing?' she asked. 'I'm hanging this picture on the wall,' I answered. 'It's a new one. Do you like it?' She looked at it critically for a moment. 'It's all right,' she said, 'but isn't it upside down?' I looked at it again. She was right! It was! 最佳艺术评论家 我是个学艺术的学生，画了很多画。有很多人装成很懂现代艺术的样子。总是告诉你一幅画的“意思”是什么。当然，有很多画是什么“意思”也没有的。他们就是些好看的图案。我们喜欢它们就像我们喜欢漂亮的窗帘布一样。我觉得小孩子们往往比任何人都更能欣赏现代绘画。他们观察到的东西更多。我的妹妹只有七岁，但她总能说出我的画是好还是不好。昨天她到我房里来了。“你干什么呢？”她问。“我正把这幅画挂到墙上去。”我回答说，“这是一幅新画，你喜欢吗？”。她用挑剔的目光看了一会儿。“还可以吧。”她说，“不过，是不是挂倒了？”我又看了看。她是对的！是挂到了！ 知识要点 1、art [ɑːt] n. 艺术；美术；艺术品；(pl.)文科；adj. 艺术的；艺术品的 巧搭：modern art现代艺术 文学士对应的英文是：Bachelor of Arts a work of art一件美术品 the fine arts美术 art ware工艺品 by art用诡计，以技巧 art gallery美术馆，画廊 black art巫术 拓展：artist n.艺术家 artiste n.艺人 谚语：Art is long, life is short. 生有涯，而知无涯。 2、critic ['krɪtɪk] n. 批评家，评论家；爱挑剔的人 巧搭：a movie critic一个电影评论家 a football critic一个足球评论家 a fashion critic一个时尚评论家 a musical critic一个音乐评论家 social critic社会评论家 派生：criticism n.批评，评论 criticize vt.批评，评论 critique n.评论文章，评论 critical adj.批评的 critically adv.批评地，评论地 例句：Jack, a social critic, died last year. 杰克是个社会评论家，去年去世了。 例句：He was mad at the critic. 他很生那个批评家的气。 例句：This issue is widely criticized in the press. 各媒体都对此事进行了批评。 例句：Why are you so critical of me? 为何总挑我的毛病？ 3、paint [peɪnt] n. 油漆；颜料；绘画作品；v. 油漆；绘画 巧搭：oil painting油画 Chinese painting中国国画 Beijing opera京剧 例句：I liked painting very much when I was young. 小时候我很喜欢画画。 辨析：paint (用颜料)画、描绘 例句：She is painting a picture for her roommate. 她正在给她的室友作画。 draw (用笔和其他工具)画、划 例句：Draw a line under the letter “d”. 在字母“d”下面画条线。 拓展：painter n.油漆工,画家 painting n.画,油画 Wet paint!油漆未干 paint the town red酒宴,狂欢 Page 2 of 7 4、pretend [prɪ'tend] v. 假装 例句：Stop pretending. 别装蒜了。 巧搭：pretend to do sth.假装做某事。 例句：He pretends to know Japanese. 他假装懂日文。 例句：The wolf pretended to be sleeping. 这只狼假装在睡觉。 例句：They are pretending to be happy, which is not true. 他们假装开心，其实不然。 例句：He is never sincere, always pretending. 他从不真诚，老是在作假。 派生：pretended adj.假装的,虚假的 pretentious adj.炫耀的，矫揉造作的 pretender n.伪装者，冒牌者 5、curtain ['kɜːt(ə)n] n. 幕；窗帘；vt. 遮蔽；装上门帘 例句：Please open(draw) the curtains. 请把窗帘拉开(拉上)。 6、material [mə'tɪərɪəl] n. 材料，原料；物资；布料；adj. 重要的；物质的 巧搭：raw material原材料 building material建筑材料 curtain material窗帘布 例句：What material is the blue curtain made of? 那个蓝色的窗帘是用什么材料做的？ 7、appreciate [ə'priːʃɪeɪt] vi. 增值；涨价；vt. 欣赏；感激；领会；鉴赏 用法：作鉴赏讲时，appreciate＝understand and enjoy appreciate doing sth.很喜欢做某事 like—love—enjoy—appreciate程度加深 例句：A sensitive mouth is necessary to appreciate good wine. 品尝红酒需要有敏感的嘴。 例句：The French mouth can appreciate good XO. 法国人很懂得品酒。 巧搭：appreciate sb’s doing sth.感谢某人做的某事 appreciate one’s help感谢某人的帮助 appreciate deeply深表感激 appreciate sincerely诚挚地感谢 比较：appreciate v.感激，比thank更正式，程度跟强烈 拓展：appreciation n.感激,鉴赏 appreciative adj.感谢的,感激的 appreciable adj.值得重视的,可感知的 be appreciative for… 对…充满感激 例句：I am appreciative for your advice. 我对你的建议充满感激。 例句：I really appreciate your help. 十分感激你的帮助。 例句：Doctors are highly appreciated in that country. 在那个国家医生受到高度重视。 8、notice ['nəʊtɪs] n. 通知，布告；注意；公告；vt. 通知；注意到 (不能用进行时) 巧搭：at short notice或at a moment’s notice随时；一得到通知就 take no notice of sth.不注意,不理 take notice of sth.注意 without notice没有预先通知 give notice通知 come into notice引起注意 例句：I didn’t notice when it began to rain. 我没注意到天什么时候开始下雨的。 例句：The notice on the table says, “No Smoking.” 桌上的告示牌上写着：“禁止吸烟”。 例句：His writing brought him into public notice. 他的文章引起大家对他的注意。 例句：The matter attracted little notice. 这件事没有引起什么注意。 辨析：pay attention to注意(强调注意这个动作,思想上的注意) notice注意到(强调结果,细节上的注意) 例句：I paid much attention to the door, but I didn’t notice when you came in. 我密切注意着门口，但是没有注意到你什么时候进来的。 拓展：noticeable adj.值得注意的，显著的 notice board公告栏 9、whether ['weðə] conj. 是否；不论；pron. 两个中的哪一个 例句：Whether right or wrong, he usually wins the argument无论是对是错，在争论中获胜的通常是他。 辨析：whether, if Page 3 of 7 whether常与or连用，主要用途3点：1.表示两种条件或情况；2.引导间接问句；3.表示疑惑， 意为是否。If用于表示情况或条件，不能与or连用。 作是否讲得是否whether … or not＝if 10、hang [hæŋ] n. 悬挂；暂停，中止；vt. 悬挂；逗留；绞死；垂下；安装； 巧搭：hang out/around闲荡, 混在一起 hang up挂断(电话),把…挂起来,耽搁 hang back犹豫,畏缩 hang on to抓紧,抓住…不放 hang together团结一致 hang in there忍耐一下 hang loose放松 get the hang of得知做某事的窍门 例句：Sadam was hanged in 2007. 萨达姆2007年被绞死了。 例句：Will you please hang your jacket up? 请把你的外套挂起来，好吗？ 例句：He was upset.

新概念英语第二册课后习题答案详解Lesson 26
1. a
根据课文第3行Of course, many pictures are not about
anything(当然，有很多画是什么“意思”也没有的)，只有a. You can’t always ‘explain’ modern
pictures(你是往往不能解释现代画的含义的)最能表达作者暗示的意思，而其他3个选择都不是作者的想法。
2. d
根据课文的最后两行 ‘It’s all right,’ she said, ‘but isn’t it upside down?’ I
looked at it again. She was right! It was! 只有d. noticed(注意到)
最符合课文实际内容，其他3个选择都与事实不符。
3. c
本句是陈述一个事实，应该用一般现在时。谓语动词pretend 是一般现在时，它后面的宾语从句也应该是一般现在时。 a.
understood 是过去时， 不符合语法；b. are understanding 是现在进行时， understand
是一个表示状态的动词，这种动词一般不用进行时形式；d. understands
是一般现在时，只能用于第3人称单数，而本句的主语是They; 只有c. understand 是一般现在时，符合时态要求。
4. b
a. what is it about 的语序不对，在间接因语中应该用陈述句语序；
c. what about it is , d. what about is it 语序混乱，意思不通。
只有b. what it is about 符合间接引语的语序，所以选它。
5. c
因为在间接引语中和一般疑问句应该用if或whether 引导，句中采用陈述句语序。
a. weather(天气)是错误的，意思不对。
b. that , d. unless都不能引导间接引语中的疑问句，只有c. if 能引导间接疑问句，所以选c.
