In this world, in many cases, a lot of same things can be united together. Also, many opposite things cannot be united by many people. But there is always a chance to unite two different things in one work. The following passage will tell you more about the possibility of combining painting and poetry.

Perhaps, it is not a new idea that a great work can be created by combining paintings and poems. In this case, we can unite both things in two ways. The first way is to make the poem as the main inspiration for the painting. It is also possible to write a poem after looking at a painting.

What about the next idea to combine painting and poetry? Well, we can combine both of them on a canvas. You can paint an oil painting on it and then write down the poem on that canvas. I do not know whether this kind of idea has been used for years. But this is quite a great new idea for me. It will make more people love painting and poetry at the same time. You will not need to read the poem on plain white cloth anymore.

A poem is a good way to represent a story or a thought. It is usually not too long and not easy to be understood literally (照字面意义). It is a series of words arranged in stanza (诗节) and lines with rhyme, which are quite changeable. Therefore, combining it with another type of art (such as painting) would be very good. You can get the message of the poem through the colors on the canvas. All you need to do is to use your creativity to make a painting with the right color and with great words on it.

1.The underlined word “canvas” in Paragraph 3 probably means ____.

A. a wall of a building　　 B. a piece of paper

C. cloth for painting　　 D. the screen of a computer

2.What can be inferred from the passage about painting and poetry?

A. Painting and poetry are so alike that they can be united.

B. Poetry can inspire us to paint and the opposite is also true.

C. Painting and poetry have been recently combined together.

D. The author created the idea of combining painting and poetry.

3.According to the passage, a poem usually has all of the following features EXCEPT ________.

A. not being too long　　 B. being representative

C. having deep meanings　　 D. having fixed forms

Tu Youyou together with William Campbell and Satoshi Omura won the 2015 Nobel Prize for their work against parasitic diseases. Irish-born Campbell and Japanese Omura won half of the prize for discovering a new drug, avermectin, that has helped the battle against river blindness and lymphatic filariasis, as well as showing effectiveness against other parasitic diseases. The Chinese scientist Tu Youyou, an 85-year-old female scientist, was awarded the other half of the prize for the discovery of artemisinin(青篙素), a drug cure for malaria(疟疾) that has saved millions of lives all over the world, especially in the developing world.

When the news broke that Tu won the Nobel Prize, there were cheers as well as doubts. It also has highlighted differences in prize-awarding practices between China and the West. Some said the achievement was the result of collective efforts by lots of Chinese scientists, so it was unfair to award the prize only to Tu. Indeed, Chinese science awards are mainly presented to projects, instead of individual scientists. But Western awards tend to honor individual scientists who are the first to come up with a new idea or method. Li Zhenzhen, a researcher of the China Academy of Sciences said that the West believes that the advancement of science comes from individuals’ creative minds.

In 1969, Tu started to hold a government project aimed at eliminating malaria. Tu and her teammates experimented with 380 extracts in 2,000 candidate recipes before they finally succeeded in getting the pure substance qinghaosu, later known as artemisinin. In 2011, Tu was awarded the Lasker Debakey Clinical Medical Research Award, commonly referred to as “America’s Nobel Prize”. (278 words)

A. Because she discovered the avermectin, a drug cure for malaria

B. Because she contributed to the traditional Chinese medicine

C. Because she discovered the artemisinin which shows effectiveness against other parasitic diseases

D. Because she has saved millions of lives for the discovery of artemisinin.

2.What is the difference in prize-awarding practices between China and the West?

A. Chinese science awards are mainly presented to individual scientists, instead of projects

B. Chinese believes that the advancement of science comes from individuals’ creative minds

C. Western awards tend to honor individual scientists who are the first to come up with a new idea or method

D. Western awards are presented to both individual scientists and projects

3.How old was Tu Youyou when she was awarded the “America’s Nobel Prize”.

A. 85　　　　　 B. 81　　　　　　　　 C. 46　　　　　 D. 39

4.What is the best title of the passage?
