9、re Social Sculptures?C Do You Know about Trash Art?D How Can We Deal with Used Cans?【解题导语】 本文主要讲述了一位德国艺术家利用垃圾创造艺术作品的故事， 并以此鼓励 读者行动起来，为环保出一份力。【难句分析】 All that counts is the time in which we are living.分析：本句是一个复合句。that 引导定语从句，在从句中作主语，修饰先行词 All ；in which =where，引导定语从句，在从句中作状语，修饰先行词the time。译文：重要的是我们所生活的

10、时代。1B 考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“ They are sculptures to spread the id ea thatwelive in a time of garbage”可知，Schult 的作品反映了环境问题，故选 B。A 项错在 Schult的作品是用来当垃圾桶的，这一信息文章并未提及；C 项错在 Schult 的作品首次是在法国巴黎展出，这与第一段最后一句“ He first exhibited them in 1996 in the western Germanstate of NorthRhine-Westphalia”不符；D 项错在 Schult 的作品是为了提

11、高人们的经济意识，这与其环保思想相悖，故排除。2 A 考查推理判断。根据第三段最后一句“ All that counts is the time in which we are living ”和第二段的整体内容可推知， Schult 的作品同样传递了这样一个思想，即艺术 家除了自己的艺术追求之外，也应该有社会责任感，故选A。3 D考查推理判断。根据最后一段第一句“ You can be anartistlike Schultifyoutry ”可推知，作者认为普通人也可以利用周围的废物或者垃圾而成为一位艺术家，故选D。4 A考查标题判断。文章最后一段第一句“ You can be anart

12、istlike Schultifyoutry ”点题，再结合全文内容可推知，本文主要通过讲述一位艺术家利用垃圾创造艺术作品的 故事，激励人们行动起来，为环保作贡献，人人都可以成为一位艺术家，故A 项最适合做文章3标题。*语法填空。The British have many traditionsbut there is nothing more typical than takingafter noon tea.
