These unconscious acts consist of a
19、ll the little personal habits that we dont even think about, but definitely should. These are some of the things that present an image of who we are to others, and if we are careless in performing them, this image may well be other than we would like it to be. Parents who insist that their children
20、practice good manners and habits at home are doing them a great service, for these habits then become lifelong and the natural way they do things. It proves true that their unconscious actions will reflect a well-mannered person. People who, for example, eat with both arms on the table at home will
21、likely do so when out. Those who are lazy and slow in private will certainly be so in public.

This is an area where the saying “pr
22、actice makes perfect” may be applied. There is an article about the actress, Audrey Hepburn, known for her beautiful carriage and posture.

27、person practice more 【小题 4】 Which of the following are NOT true A If we are not careful about our unconscious acts, the images of ourselves presented to others will be quite undesirable. B The good habits formed in ones childhood will benefit him throughout his life. C If parents do not care about t

Surprisingly, I heard the small, clear voice I knew so well, Information. I hadnt planned on this but I heard myself saying, Could you please tell me

39、ined constant to artists. No matter what objects they select, artists are to bring forth new forces and forms that cause changeto find poetry where no one has ever seen or experienced it before. Landscape(风景 ) is another unchanging element of art. It can be found from ancient times through the 17th-
40、century Dutch painters to the 19th-century romanticists and impressionists. In the 1970s Alfred Leslie, one of the new American realists, continued this practice. Leslie sought out the same place where Thomas Cole, a romanticist, had produced paintings of the same scene a century and a half before.
41、Unlike Cole who insists on a feeling of loneliness and the idea of finding peace in nature, Leslie paints what he actually sees. In his paintings, there is no particular change in emotion, and he includes ordinary things like the highway in the background. He also takes advantage of the latest devel
42、opments of color photography(摄影术 ) to help both the eye and the memory when he improves his painting back in his workroom.

43、ty in brief emotional effects, the realists in everyday subjects and in forest scenes, and the Cro-Magnon cave people in their naturalistic drawings of the animals in the ancient forests. To sum up, understanding reality is a necessary struggle for artists of all periods. Over thousands of years the
44、 function of the arts has remained relatively constant. Past or present, Eastern or Western, the arts are a basic part of our immediate experience. Many and different are the faces of art, and together they express the basic need and hope of human beings. 【小题 1】 Leslies paintings are extraordinary b

47、ence. C They are considered important for variety in form. D They are regarded as a mirror of the human situation. 答案： 【小题 1】 C 【小题 1】 B 【小题 1】 D You know that pearls grow inside oysters(牡蛎 ), but would you ever think to look for diamonds inside an ostrich(鸵鸟 ) Well, a hunter once shot an ostrich an
48、d discovered, to his great surprise, that the big bird had swallowed a bunch of diamonds. How could such a strange thing happen Like many other birds, the ostrich swallows small stones that stay inside its “gizzard”. The gizzard is a birds second stomach. It is where the food is ground up. The small stones help to grind up the food so it can be digested. The small stones do the chewing because birds dont have teeth. In that case of the ostrich with the diamonds, the bird simply had expensive t
