   New picture
   The Gallery (美术馆) now has a fine still life by the Dutch 18th century painter Jan van Os. This large picture (89.1cm × 71cm) of flowers and fruit is painted in light bright colours on wood. It is one of the first pictures of this type in the Gallery. The picture is signed and dated 1777 and 1778. It is not unusual for a picture like this to be dated in two years : the artist waited for par ticular flowers to come out in their different seasons in order to paint them. This picture was given to the Gallery by Miss Violet Churchman in memory of her sister Ida Nancy. It is now on show in Room 25.
   Special exhibition
   The exhibition ’Painting in Spain During the Late 18th Century’ opened in the Sunley Room on 15 March. Recently the Gallery has bought works by three Spanish painters of this period -- Paret, Melendez and Francisco Bayeu, who are the focus (重点) of the exhibition. These three artists are joined by Francisco’ s brother Ramon, by Antonio Gonzalez, and by two Italians who worked in Spain during these years -- Corrado Giaquinto and Giovanni Battista Tiepolo. The exhibition runs until 31 May.
   Lecture news
   Lectures will be given along with the special exhibition every Wednesday. On 5 April, Lizzie Barker will discuss the work of Melendez, while on 12 April, Sarah Symmons will lecture on Luis Parter. On 19 and 26 April, Juliet Wilson will talk about Francisco Bayeu. On 25 April, a Tues day, Erika Langmuir will explain how artists often ’ tell a story’ through their pictures.
Which speaker will give a lecture on a general topic rather than on particular artists?
选项 A、Erika Langmuir.
B、Lizzie Barker.
C、Sarah Symmons.
D、Juliet Wilson.
答案A
解析 细节题。题干意为“下列哪一位的讲座不是具体地限定在某些画家上，而是从总体上来说的”。从文章的最后一句话…will explain how artists often tell a story through their pictures可知，Langmuir的报告是从整体上对艺术家及他们的作品来说的。所以本题的正确答案为A。
