（1）泉州市 2021 届高中毕业班质量监测(一)之A篇

The City of Toronto currently delivers three public art programs: the Public Art & Monuments Collection, the

Percent for Public Art Program and StreetARToronto (StART). The programs have had a transformative effect on

the city’s vitality, gathering a collection of public art that is of international significance.

Pubic Art & Monuments collection

The City commissions (委托制作) and accepts donations of high-quality public art works and monuments that

are relevant to their prospective community, and enrich the urban experience of Toronto’s residents and visitors.

These City-owned works of public art and historical monuments enhance public spaces all over Toronto.

Percent for Public Art Program

The governing principle for the Percent for Public Art Program is that art is a public benefit to be enjoyed and

experienced by residents and visitors through the city. The privately-owned art is intended to make building and

open spares more attractive and interesting and to improve the quality of the public spaces. The Program requires

that the artwork must be clearly visible at all times from publicly accessible areas.

StreetARToronto

StreetARToronto (StART) is a series of programs designed specifically for streets and public spaces. Launched

in 2012 as part of the City’s Graffiti( 涂鸦 )Management Plan, StART has been successful in reducing graffiti

vandalism and replacing it with colourful, community-engaged street art.

（2）浙江省杭州市杭州二中 2021 届第一学期高三年级第一次月考之 C篇

Johannes Vermeer is such a quiet and introspective (内省的) artist that it took hundreds of years for anyone to

notice he was a genius.

A major Vermeer exhibition opens this month at the Louvre in Paris, whose permanent collection includes his

great painting of a woman absorbed in close, visually demanding work, The Lacemaker (about 1669-1670). Like

other paintings by Vermeer, this image represents modern culture.

So attracted are today’s art lovers by Vermeer that it was thought shocking when a recent survey found that

82% of Americans can’t name who painted The Girl with the Pearl Earring. Well, maybe they don’t go to the

movies much.

It is not true to say he was forgotten—that would suggest he was famous in his lifetime. He was not. Vermeer

was one more painter among the many who worked for money in the Dutch Republic in the 17th century. He was

not a star like Rembrandt. He obviously took himself and his art seriously. His self-referential painting The Art of

Painting proves that. Even though he worked all his life in Delft, he painted only 35 known works and left his

family poor when he died in 1675 at the age of 43.

It is fitting that Paris is celebrating Vermeer, because it was the French avant-garde ( 先锋派) in the 19th

century who saved him from being completely forgotten. Compare his paintings Woman in Blue Reading a Letter

or The Little Street with, say, Edouard Manet’s A Bar at the Folies-Bergere (1882) or Camille Pissarro’s The

Boulevard Montmartre at Night (1897) and it is easy to see why the art of Vermeer found its natural audience in

Parisian bohemia. (放荡不羁的艺术家)

All these artists are likely to have known about and admired Vermeer due to the efforts of the critic Thore-

Burger, a veteran of the 1848 revolution.

Vermeer’s rediscovery is part of the history of modern French art. Vermeer is not only a great artist. He is a

great modern artist.

8. What can we know about Vermeer from Paragraph 4?

A. He was well-known when he was alive.

B. He gained a good fortune for his family.

C. He didn’t witness the popularity of his works.

D. He considered painting as a way to have fun.

9. Who made a great contribution to introducing Vermeer to other artists?

A. Rembrandt. B. His family.

C. American art lovers. D. Thore-Burger.

10. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
