问题     Between about 1910 and 1930, new artistic movements in European art were making themselves felt in the United States. American artists became【S1】______with the new art on their trips to Paris and at the【S2】______in the famous New York gallery "291" (named after its address on Fifth Avenue) of the photographer Alfred Stieglitz. But most important in the spread of the modern movements in the United States was the【S3】______Armory Show of 1913 held in New York, in which the works of many of the leading European artists were seen along with the works of a number of【S4】______American painters.
    Several of the American modernists who were【S5】______by the Armory Show found the urban landscape, especially New York, an appealing subject. Compared with the works of the realist painters, the works of American modernists were much further removed from the actual【S6】______of the city; they were more interested in the "feel" of the city, more【S7】______with the meaning behind appearance. However, both the painters of the "Ash Can School" and the later realists were still tied to the nineteenth century or earlier styles, while the early modernists shared in the international breakthroughs of the art of the twentieth century.
    The greatest of these breakthroughs was Cubism, developed most fully in France between 1907 and 1914, which brought about a major revolution in Western painting. It overturned the【S8】______tradition that had been built upon since the Renaissance. In Cubism, natural forms were broken down analytically into geometric shapes. No longer was a clear differentiation made between the【S9】______and the background of a painting: the objects represented and the surface on which they were painted became one. The Cubists abandoned the【S10】______single vantage point (优势) of the viewer, and objects depicted from multiple viewpoints were shown at the same time.

A. appearance        B. rational          C. national          D. acquainted
