There have been many great painters in the rich history of Chinese art. Here are four of the greatest painters
from China.
Li Cheng (919—967, Five Dynasties and early Song Dynasty)
Li Cheng contributed greatly to one of the golden ages of landscape paintings in world history. During his time,
he was considered the best landscape painter ever. He is remembered especially for the winter landscapes he
created and for simple compositions of tall, old evergreens set against a dry landscape. Several of his paintings are
in thin ink which gives them a foggy appearance.
Fan Kuan (990—1020 , Song Dynasty)
Fan Kuan began his career by modeling Li Cheng's work but later created his own style, claiming that the only
true teacher was nature. His finest workTravelers among Mountains and Streamsis a masterpiece of landscape
painting and many future artists turned to it for inspiration.
Qi Baishi (1864-1957)
One of the greatest contemporary Chinese painters, Qi Baishi is known for not being influenced by Western
styles like most painters of his time. He can be considered as the last great traditional painter of China. He painted
almost everything from insects to landscapes. He is regarded highly in Chinese art for the freshness that he
brought to the familiar types of birds and flowers, insects and grass.
Wu Guanzhong (1919—2010)
Widely considered as the founder of modern Chinese painting , Wu Guanzhong has painted various aspects
of China, like its architecture, plants, animals, people and landscapes. Wu went on to combine Western and
Chinese styles to create a unique form of modem art. In 1992, he became the first living Chinese artist whose work
was exhibited at the British Museum.

Newspapers in Great Britainvarygreatly in their ways of carrying the news. There are serious papers for those
who want to know about important happenings everywhere, both at home and abroad. There are popular
newspapers for those who prefer entertainment to information.
The London newspaper that is best known outside Great Britain is probably the Times. It began in 1785, and
has a high reputation for believable news and serious opinions on the news. It calls itself an independent paper,
which means that it does not give its support to a particular political party. Its leading articles give the opinions of
the editors, not those of the owners of the paper.
Letters to the editor are printed in the newspaper. These parts of the Times are always interesting. Most of
the letters are serious subjects. But from time to time there will be long letters on the subject which is not at all
serious, perhaps on a new fashion of dress, or the bad manners of the young people, compared with manners of
thirty years ago.
4. If you want to get pleasure, please buy yourself _________.
A. a serious newspaper B. foreign newspaper
C. any independent paper D. a popular newspaper
5. The Times has been famous to outside Great Britain for ________ years.
A. 19 B. 85 C. 236 D. 229
6. The Times is an independent paper because ________.
A. it supports no political parties B. it is not controlled by the British Government
C. it gives special support to all the political parties.
D. the editor’s opinions are not examined by the owners of the paper
7. The underlined word “vary” in the passage probably means “_________”.
A. improve B. compete with each other
C. are different D. keep in touch with each other

Bob and Sue Harvey spent nine years as resident fellows in a dormitory at Sanford and in their bookVirtual
Reality and The College Freshman, they write “The Freshman oftenfaces an identity problem during the first
semester.” College is a more pressured environment than it used to be, in part because the academic gap between
high school and college has increased. Many college freshmen have never had to make independent decisions
about sex, drugs and alcohol. Most don’t know how to manage their time or money. They often feel lonely and
overwhelmed, resulting in anxiety and depression.
Nancy Corbin, director of clinical service for student-counseling (咨询) services at Iowa State University, says
her office is seeing a significant increase in requests for counseling from freshmen who are having trouble making
