He was most well-known for his brushwork and the way in which he connected with the human soul. His life, however, was not happy. He was born on July 15, 1606 in Leiden, the Netherlands. His father wanted him to have a real, learned profession but Rembrandt left the University of Leiden after becoming bored. He began studying art under a local teacher but soon left and studied in Amsterdam where he mastered all his lessons in six months!At the age of 22, he moved back to Leiden and began to get his own students. One of his students was the famous artist Gerrit Dou. In 1631 he returned to Amsterdam where he became the most popular portrait painter in Holland. Rembrandt met Saskia and married her in 1634. She was a cousin of a very successful art dealer and she helped him to meet wealthy people who commissioned (委任制作) many paintings from him. He used her as a model in many of his paintings. Rembrandts private life, however, was very unfortunate. He had four children with Saskia but only one, Titus, survived. Saskia died in 1642 at the age of only 30. In 1649, his housekeeper became his second wife and was also a model for many of his paintings. Even though Rembrandt was very successful as an artist, art dealer and teacher, he lived in a careless way and had to declare bankruptcy (破产) in 1656. He even had to sell his whole art collection and his house to pay off his debts.His unfortunate life, however, didnt affect his art. He painted many great paintings during that time. His new love, Hendrickje, died in 1663 and his 27-year-old son, Titus, died in 1668. Eleven months later, on October 4, 1669, Rembrandt died in Amsterdam. He produced more than 600 paintings and over 2,000 drawings!56. Which of the following is the reason that made his business fail? A. As an extraordinary Dutch painter, he knew nothing about business. B. He spent most of his time on art, leaving no time to care his business. C. All his children but Titus died, which made him very sad. D. Like other famous artists, he was thoughtless. 57. From the passage we learn that Rembrandt . A. graduated from the University of Leiden. B. began his teaching career in 1628. C. married Saskia when he was 22 years old.D. was good at drawing animals and flowers.58. How many members of Rembrandts family died before him, not including his parents? A. Four B. Five C. Six D. Seven59. Whats the best title for this passage? A. A brief biography of Rembrandt B. A great Dutch painter C. The greatest painter in the world D. Rembrandts unhappy family BI credit my typing skill to so many hours of chatting online. Unfortunately, as my typing speed increased on the Internet, all grammatical rules went out of the window. You see instant messages have their own shorthand language and grammar isnt important, of which even a newbie (新手) is aware. They can leave out articles, subjects (主语), pronouns, etc. They can misspell or “respell” almost any word. They often ask “A/S/L” when they first chat. Abbreviations (缩写) and capitalizations (大写) are particularly important. English-speaking instant messengers also refuse to burden themselves with punctuation and capitalization.After I came back China, I discovered not one but two instant messaging crazes. The first, which brought back memories of my previous addiction to the computer, was QQ. I can see evidence that the Chinese have the same kind of separate instant messaging language, even when they chat in English. My first word in this language, for example, was “ft”. This abbreviation for “faint” is used whenever there is a need to express surprise. I also discovered that Chinese use the same kind of abbreviation for a laugh. And there is an extraordinary number of smileys (表情符) to the “vomit” and “army soldier” smileys. There is even a SARA smiley.After QQ, there is another, perhaps more widespread messaging trend. You guessed it - cell phone text messaging. I now understand how useful text messaging is and why it is so common. I admit that I have been guilty of sending text messages while walking outside or sitting on the subway. Who hasnt ? No matter where I go, I see people on their cell phones, messaging. In fact, its rare to see someone actually talking on their phone!So it looks as if there is no escape from the instant messaging crazes, no matter where in the world I go. And thats plainly not going to change. In the end, though, I cant complain: instant messaging is quick, its cheap, its easy and its extremely fun too. And after all, everyones doing it.60. The underlined phrase “went out of the window” in Paragraph 1 probably means . A. increased B. occurred C. disappeared D. changed61. Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. Grammar and correct spelling are very important while chatting online. B. There are enough smileys and icons to express yourselves while chatting on line. C. The writer is skilled at typing and once was addicted to online games. D. It is impolite to leave out some unimportant words or letters while chatting online.62. The writer believes that instant messaging is . A. full of fun but time-consuming B. widespread but unnecessary C. quick but difficult to do D. common, used and cheap63. Which might be the main idea of the passage? A. Who can escape QQ and cell phone text messaging? B. Why is instant messaging so popular?C. Chatting online is good for your typing skill.D. Chatting on QQ is natural for people. CAlthough Wu Huifei was only a concubine (妃子) of Tang Xuanzong (AD 685-762), the sixth emperor of the Tang Dynasty, her influence was far greater than most in her position. Historians say that the ruler loved her so much that, in AD 724, he banished his wife and made Wu a royal concubine. Although she was only a concubine, she was treated as an emp
