Throughout the ages, man has tried to create beauty through painting, music, sculpture(雕刻) and other kinds of artistic expression. It seems to be a basic need for humans to surround themselves with art. Some people, however, feel that the government is wasting money by spending it on art, particularly when there are so many other more important things that the money can be used for.

It can be wrong for governments to spend large sums of money on art. Too often, governments spend the money unwisely. Cities end up with huge statues or expensive, empty buildings that are only used by a few people. Many times, the art is also chosen to represent social or political

rather than artistic ideas, and even if it represents artistic ideas, tastes in art can change very rapidly. Without thinking carefully about how to spend the money, the people may end up                                                                        with an expensive collection of worthless paintings of tasteless productions.

At the same time it would be wrong to say that governments should not spend any money at all on art. Painters, musicians, and composers cannot survive without monetary support. Many times, the art is inaccessible (很难到的) to ordinary people because only rich people and large companies can afford it. Governments have a duty to make this art available to everyone. Art helps people enjoy life,

Although people do need to be provided with the necessities of life, governments also have a duty to provide their citizens with something more. I firmly believe that spending money on art is vital (必不可少的) part of a government’s responsibility, and I am confident that my country is able to contribute a great deal to the rich collection of art from around passage?

45. What does the author mainly tell us in the passage?

A. Why tastes in art change so rapidly.

B. The importance of art to human beings.

C. Humans’ need to be surrounded by art.

D. Whether or not the government should spend money on art.

46. The following are reasons why governments spend too much money on arts EXCEPT that _____.

A. art is changing with time rapidly

B. they choose art to serve political purpose

C. they don’t think carefully enough about what to buy

D. art is necessary for the life of poor people

47. The underlined word “monetary” in the third paragraph probably means“_____”.

A. political          B. financial            C. temporary(临时的)          D. continuous

48. According to the author, what is the function of art?

A. Art can be very valuable when it is traded.    B. Art makes people’s lives worthwhile.

C. Art can unite governments.                      D. Art can make governments fashionable.

高三英语单项填空简单题查看答案及解析

Neatness and personal cleanness have been around for ages and have become an important part of everyone’s daily routine. You might think that all modern societies would have the same neatness and personal cleanness practices. After all, doesn’t everybody take baths? Most people do recognize the need for cleanness, which is the basis for health. Neatness practices include all the little things people do to make themselves look their best, such as combing their hair and putting on makeup. However, while most modern people agree that these things are important, people in different cultures take care of themselves in different ways.

There used to be an old joke in America that people should take a bath once a week, whether they need one or not. In fact, though, Americans generally take a bath or more commonly, a shower every day. But in contrast to some cultures, most Americans get their shower in the morning so that they can start the day fresh. Americans are known for having very sensitive noses. In America, body smell is socially unacceptable. For that reason, Americans consider it a must to use special lotion (浴液) to prevent the smell. Ladies often add a touch of perfume. Men may spray on after – shave cream or manly – smelling perfume.

Some of the cultural varieties in neatness practices result from physical differences between races. Whereas many Asian men have little facial hair, Westerners have a lot. As a result, most American men spend some time each day shaving or tidying their facial hair to keep it nice. American women, on the other hand, generally prefer not to be hairy at all.

　Americans put great value on both neatness and personal cleanness. For some people, taking care of themselves has become almost a religion. As the old saying goes, “Cleanness is next to godliness.” Whether or not being clean and neat – looking brings one closer to God, it certainly at least brings one closer to others. Americans look down on people who don’t take care of themselves, or who “let themselves go.”

68．We can infer from the first paragraph that ________.

A．everyone takes baths daily to get a nice look.

B．people have the same neatness practices today.

C．neatness practices may be affected by cultures.

D．neatness means combing hair and doing makeup.

69．Americans have a bath in the morning to ________.

A．begin an energetic day                                  B．refresh their sensitive noses

C．prevent their body smell                               D．style their hair at home

70．According to the author, physical differences between races can cause differences in ________.

A．cultures                   B．locations                  C．religions                   D．neatness practice

71．The underlined phrase in the last paragraph means “________”.

A．care much about themselves                      B．give loose to themselves

C．stay away from other people                       D．stay closer to other people
