Every artist knows in his heart that he is saying something to the public.Not only does he want to say it well, but he wants it to be something that has not been said before.He hopes the public will listen and understand —he wants to teach, and he wants them to learn from him.What visual (视觉) artists like painters want to teach is easy to make out but difficult to explain, because painters translate their experiences into shapes and colors, not words.They seem to feel that a certain selection of shapes and colors, out of the countless billions possible, is exceptionally (特殊地) interesting for them and worth showing to us.Without their work we should never have noticed these particular shapes and colors, or have felt the delight which they brought to the artist.Most artists take shapes and colors from the world or nature and from human bodies in motion and repose (静态), their choices show that these fields of the world are worth looking at, that they contain beautiful sights.Contemporary (当代的) artists might say that they only choose subjects that provide an interesting pattern, that there is nothing more in it.Yet even they do not choose entirely without reference to the character of their subjects.If one painter chooses to paint a gangrenous (生疮的) leg and a lake in moonlight, each of them is directing our attention to a certain aspect of the world.Each painter is telling us something, showing us something and emphasizing something, all of which means that he is trying to teach us.1．An artist hopes that the public will ．A．understand him and learn from himB．notice only shapes and colors in his workC．teach him somethingD．believe what he says in his work【解析】细节理解题。

【答案】 CBIn 1970, my five brothers, my sister and I lived in the housing projects of Toronto with our parents. My father was a factory worker, and my mother stayed at home. Each year my father would dress up as Santa Claus and go through the streets of the projects sharing joy and candies with the children there. He loved it as much as they did!But around the Christmas in 1970, my father was out of his job and money was tight. In fact, there was no money for Christmas and my parents weren't sure what they'd provide for us.That Christmas Eve, however, as usual, my father left the house dressed as Santa Claus. He knew that even though our Christmas would be hard, he could not disappoint the other kids in the neighbourhood.As my father left the house and went down the walkway, Santa Claus was walking up, with a great sack full of gifts for us! He said nothing, only smiled a sweet smile at my father, and wished him a Merry Christmas. The happy man handed Dad the sack and walked away down the block.We never knew who the man was and who showed us great kindness on a snowy Christmas night. We do know, however, that without him we would have had nothing under the tree. His kindness gave my parents hope and showed us in a very real way the true meaning of Christmas.Our family has never forgotten this kind stranger. Each year we tell the story of the mysterious Santa Claus and try to repay his gifts by giving gifts to others in need.【语篇解读】文章讲述了一个关于圣诞节的故事。
