Painting, the execution of forms and shapes on a surface by means of pigment, has been【C1】______practiced by humans for some 20, 000 years. Together with other activities【C2】______ritualistic in origin but have come to be designated as artistic(such as music or dance), painting was one of the earliest ways in which man【C3】______to express his own personality and his【C4】______understanding of an existence beyond the material world.【C5】______music and dance, however, examples of early forms of painting have survived to the present day. The modern eye can derive aesthetic as well as antiquarian satisfaction【C6】______the 15, 000-year-old cave murals of Lascaux — some examples【C7】______to the considerable powers of draftsmanship of these early artists. And painting, like other arts, exhibits universal qualities that【C8】______for viewers of all nations and civilizations to understand and appreciate.
The major【C9】______examples of early painting anywhere in the world are found in Western Europe and the former Soviet Union. But some 5, 000 years ago, the areas in which important paintings were executed【C10】______to the eastern Mediterranean Sea and neighboring regions.【C11】______, Western shared a European cultural tradition — the Middle East and Mediterranean Basin and, later, the countries of the New World.
Western painting is in general distinguished by its concentration on the representation of the human【C12】______, whether in the heroic context of antiquity or the religious context of the early Christian and medieval world. The Renaissance【C13】______this traitor through a【C14】______examination of the natural world and an investigation of balance, harmony, and perspective in the visible world, linking painting【C15】______the developing sciences of anatomy and optics. The first real【C16】______from figurative painting came with the growth of landscape painting in the 17th and 18th centuries. The landscape and figurative traditions developed together in the 19th century in an atmosphere that was increasingly【C17】______"painterly" qualities of the【C18】______of light and color and the expressive qualities of paint handling. In the 20th century these interests【C19】______to the development of a third major tradition in Western painting, abstract painting, which sought to【C20】______and express the true nature of paint and painting through action and form.
【C13】
选项
A、extracted
B、extended
C、extorted
D、extruded
答案
B
解析
动词词义辨析。extract“提取;摘录”;extend“延伸;扩大”;extort“敲诈;强求”;extrude“挤出;逐出”。上一句提到文艺复兴以前的西方绘画对人体的关注,这句话则提到了对自然世界和可见世界的观察与研究,由此可见绘画题材的范围是扩大了,本题应该选extended。故答案为B。
