the museum and into the outside world.Modern Land Art movement really got going in the 1960s when American artists began creating Land Art on a large scale.Today，works of modern Land Art can be seen all over the world，sometimes right alongside much older pieces of Land Art created by people who lived thousands of years ago.Land Art，which is not necessarily unchangeable，can take a number of forms.For example，in 1970 Robert Smithson created the Spiral Jetty (螺旋状防波堤)，made of a collection of stones and mud，in the Great Salt Lake.The American artist made a large jetty in a spiral shape which sticks out into the waters of the lake.Reshaping the landscape is a common characteristic of Land Art，which can be created by moving parts around.People can also add things to the environment to create Land Art，like salt，which is added to the Spiral Jetty.It is possible to use plants.In all cases，Land Art is immovable.Land Art is designed to gradually form，change，and eventually decay (衰落)Thats one of the biggest differences between Land Art and most of the art one sees in the museums.Some works of art can exist only for a few hours or days.Others are exposed to rain and wind so that they develop and decay over time，which is part of the attractiveness in the eyes of the artists.语篇解读 地景艺术开始于数千年之前，它不同于传统的艺术，主要使用泥土、石块等材料在户外制作艺术品。4What can be learned from the first

Robert Smithson?AHe is a great creative artist.BHe lives near the Great Salt Lake.CHe made the most famous Land Art.DHe was a pioneer in creating Land Art.解析：考查推理判断。根据第二段的第二句“For example，in 1970 Robert Smithson created the Spiral Jetty(螺旋状防波堤)，made of a collection of stones and mud，in the Great Salt Lake”可知，地景艺术可以采取多种形式，Robert Smithson在大盐湖中用泥浆和石头制造了螺旋状防波堤；据此可以推断，他是一位非常有创造力的艺术家。答案：A6One of the unique characteristics of Land Art lies in_.Ashowing the extreme beauty of natureBdeveloping and decaying gradually over timeCcombining the landscapes around completelyDoffering the artists a chance to get close to nature解析：考查细节理解。根据文章的最后一句“Others are exposed to rain and wind so that they develop and decay over time，which is part of the attractiveness in the eyes of the

B10.C9. D8.解析：推理判断题。根据第三段的内容可知，在二月份Rojas接到了耶鲁大学的电话；在接下来的几个星期之内，他接到了其他七所大学的电话、邮件和信件；他还被斯坦福大学及其附近的两所大学录取。由此可知，他一共收到了十一所大学(1712)的录取通知。故A项符合题意。答案：A14How do we understand what Tinajero said?ARojas is good at speech and debate competition.BThe hard work of his parents inspired Rojas greatly.CRojas parents knew Rojas loved them deeply.DRojas motivation was misunderstood by his parents.解析：推理判断题。根据第五段最后一句可知，Rojas成功的动力来源于他的父母；由此可推知，Rojas父母的努力工作大大地激励了他。故B项符合题意。答案：B15Why did Rojas choose Yale at last?AYale is famous for Latin American studies.BHe wants to be a lawyer as his career.CHe cares more about the expense.DYale is responsible for all his cost.解析：细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的内容可知，Rojas选择耶鲁大学是因为一年64 000美元的大学费用他自己只需承担6
