Pei, the ChineseAmerican, who was regarded as one of the last great modernist architects, has died at the age of 102. Although he worked mostly in the United States, Pei will always be remembered for a European project: His redevelopment of the Louvre Museum in Paris in the 1980s. He gave us the glass and metal pyramid in the main courtyard, along with three smaller pyramids and a vast subterranean (地下的) addition to the museum entrance. Pei was the first foreign architect to work on the Louvre in its long history, and initially his designs were fiercely opposed. But in the end, the French—and everyone else—were won over. Winning the fifth Pritzker Architecture Prize in 1983, he was thought as giving the 20th century some of its most beautiful inside spaces and outside forms … His talent and skill in the use of materials approach the level of poetry. After studying architecture at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard, Pei set up his own architectural practice in New York in 1955. Designing the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library amp。 Museum in 1964 established him as a name. His East Building of the National Gallery of Art in Washington in 1978 changed people39。s ideas of a museum. The site was an odd trapezoid (梯形) shape. Pei39。s solution was to cut it in two. The resulting building was dramatic, light and elegant—one of the first crowdpleasing cathedrals of modern art. Though known as a modernist, and notable for his forms based on arrangements of simple geometric (幾何的) shapes, he once urged Chinese architects to look more to their architectural tradition rather than designing in a western style. In person, . Pei was goodhumored, charming and unusually modest. His working process was evolutionary, but innovation (創(chuàng)新) was never an intended goal. Stylistic originality is not my purpose, he said. I want to find the originality in the time, the place and the problem.(1)What can we learn about the result of redevelopment of the Louvre Museum?

But in the end, the French—and everyone else—were won over. ”貝聿銘是盧浮宮悠久歷史上的第一位外國(guó)建筑師,最初他的設(shè)計(jì)遭到強(qiáng)烈反對(duì)。但最終,法國(guó)人,以及全世界,都被(他的精妙設(shè)計(jì)所)折服。從而可以推測(cè),羅浮宮博物館重建非常成功。故選B。 (2)考查句義猜測(cè)。根據(jù)第三段中的“His talent and skill in the use of materials approach the level of poetry.”中的關(guān)鍵詞talent and skill和the use of materials可知,此句字面含義為:他在使用(建筑)材料方面的才華和技藝達(dá)到了詩一般的境界,即他是應(yīng)用材料方面的專家。故選A。 (3)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第四段中的“After studying architecture at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard, Pei set up his own architectural practice in New York in ,1955年,貝聿銘在麻省理工學(xué)院和哈佛大學(xué)學(xué)習(xí)建筑學(xué);第五段中的“Designing the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library amp。 Museum in 1964 established him as a name. ”1964年,貝聿銘設(shè)計(jì)了約翰肯尼迪總統(tǒng)圖書館和博物館;“His East Building of the National Gallery of Art in Washington in 1978 changed people39。s ideas of a museum.” 1978年設(shè)計(jì)了華盛頓國(guó)家美術(shù)館東館;第三段中的“Winning the fifth Pritzker Architecture Prize in 1983, he was thought as giving the 20th century ‘some of its most beautiful inside spaces and outside forms …”貝聿銘于1983年獲得普利茲克建筑獎(jiǎng)。故選B。 (4)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第六段中的“Though known as a modernist, and notable for his forms based on arrangements of simple geometric (幾何的) shapes, he once urged Chinese architects to look more to their architectural tradition rather than designing in a western style.”可知,貝聿銘設(shè)計(jì)的建筑物基于簡(jiǎn)單幾何形狀排列的形式而聞名,從而推斷出,他喜歡簡(jiǎn)單的幾何形狀。故選D。 【點(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解,句義猜測(cè)和推理判斷三個(gè)題型的考查,是一篇人物類閱讀,要求考生準(zhǔn)確捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息,結(jié)合上下文的邏輯關(guān)系,進(jìn)行分析,推理,從而選出正確答案。8.閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng)。 Kincaid looked at his watch: eightseventeen. The truck started on the second try, and he backed out, shifted gears, and moved slowly down the alley under hazy sun. Through the streets of Bellingham he went, heading south on Washington 11, running along the coast of Puget Sound for a few miles, then following the highway as it swung east a little before meeting Route 20. Turning into the sun, he began the long, winding drive through the Cascades. He liked this country and felt unpressed stopping now and then to make notes about interesting possibilities for future expeditions or to shoot what he called memory snapshots. The purpose of these causal photographs was to remind him of places he might want to visit again and approach more seriously. In later afternoon he turned north at Spokane, picking up . Route 2, which would take him halfway across the northern United States to Duluth, Minnesota. He wished for the thousandth time in his life that he had a dog, a golden retriever, maybe, for travels like this and to keep him pany at home. But he was frequently away。 overseas much of the time and it w
