When Frida Kahlo’s paintings were on show in London,a poet described her paintings as “a ribbon (丝带)around a bomb”.Such comments seem to suggest Kahlo had a big influence on the art world of her time.Sadly,she is actually a much bigger name today than she was during her time. Born in 1907 in a village near Mexico City,Kahlo suffered from polio(小儿麻痹症)at the age of seven.Her spine(脊柱)become bent as she grew older.Then,in 1925,her back was broken in several places in a school-bus accident.Throughout the rest of her life,the artist had many operations,but nothing was able to cure the terrible pain in her back.However,the accident had an unexpected side effect.While lying in her bed recovering,Kahlo taught herself to paint. In 1929,she got married to Diego Rivera,another famous Mexican artist.Rivera’s strong influences on Kahlo’s style can be seen in her early works,but her later works from the 1940s,known today as her best works,show less influence from her husband. Unfortunately,her works did not attract much attention in the 1930s and 1940s,even in her home country.Her first one-woman show in Mexico was not held until 1953.For more than a decade after her death in 1954,Kahlo’s works remained largely unnoticed by the world,but in the 1970s her works began to gain international fame at last. 1.What does the phrase “a much bigger name” in Paragraph 1 most probably mean?

Jane Clarke, My daughter is coming up to her finals.She eats reasonably well but less so in term time,as getting out to buy fresh fruit and vegetables is time-consuming.She has recently often had flu.Can you offer guidance on what to eat and drink when under pressure? Mary King, She should mainly take in the B vitamins,the group largely responsible for the smooth running of the nervous system,and vitamin C,which experts believe we need in much greater quantities when we are stressed than the usual. B vitamins are found in many foods but especially pork,bacon,nuts,dairy products,lean meat,fish,eggs and whole grains-so even if your daughter can’t shop regularly,other foods can work in her favor.Tinned oily fish are good,which can help to block production of the enzyme(酶)that makes us feel tense when under pressure. Fresh produce usually has the highest and best all-round levels of nutrients such as vitamin C,but if your daughter has a freezer she could buy frozen vegetables,which contain good levels.Fresh juice is another good source of vitamin C. She should avoid caffeine,as it increases the adrenaline(肾上腺素)generated at times of stress; water would be better.Frequent small meals can help concentration. High-sugar foods such as biscuits and sweets could make people feel excited,and patients often feel the same; better avoid eating them.Pasta,rice or a jacket potato,will help to calm us down.And drinking plenty of water can also help concentration. 1.If lacking vitamin C,one had better eat . A. dairy products and oily fish B. fresh vegetables and fruits C. caffeine and biscuits D. lean meat and fresh vegetable 2.We can learn that the daughter of Mary King . A. doesn’t have enough time to go shopping B. is fond of buying frozen vegetables C. is getting on well with her classmates D. is too stressed to prepare for the finals 3.According to the passage,why should high-sugar foods be avoided? A. Because it increases the adrenaline. B. Because it can make students more stressed. C. Because it can excite people. D. Because it can make people fat. 4.We can infer from the passage that A. the more water one drinks,the better B. Jane Clarke knows Mary King very well C. eating is closely related to people’s mental health D. the daughter of Mary King takes in too much caffeine

Everyone talks about the “five” senses of man.And it is true that we get our information about the outside from our sense of sight,hearing,smell,touch and taste.Researchers tell us that the sense of sight—our visual sense—gives us up to 80% of what we know about the world outside our bodies; while the other senses,the auditory (hearing),the olfactory (smell),the tactile (touch),and the gustatory (taste) bring into our brains information about the other 20% of what is happening.But there are two other senses that we cannot get along without,though they are little noticed.These are the senses of balance (平衡),without which we would act like a drunk after a heavy drink,and the kinesthetic sense(动觉),which gives us our ideas about our own motion (运动). 1.Which is the best title for this passage?

A. about half of our information about the world B. about 20% of our information about the world C. 80% of our information about the world D. all the needed our information about the world 3.The senses of hearing,smell,touch and taste supply us with .
