Art is everywhere in our lives.Every man­made object is linked with art—a housea motor cara bridgea chaira teapotor a piece of cloth.Throughout historyhumans have made articles for a wide variety of purposesgenerally for everyday practical requirements.The style of practical objects reflects the outlook and the spirit of the times in which they are made and in consequence style is constantly changing.

It seems that humans possess a natural urge to improve constructed objects with decorationsometimes for beautificationsometimes for religious reasonssometimes to show off their wealth and powerand sometimes to tell a story.Decoration is not art in itself.Unnecessary decoration can ruin the form and perhaps the function of an objectbut when decoration is used with careit can beautifyproduce varietyand add interest.

The first essential(要点) in every creation is that it should properly fulfil its purposefor instancea teapot should pour perfectlyan easy chair should provide comfortable relaxationa block of flats should be a pleasant place in which to liveand a factory or commercial building should be a suitable building in which to work.

The second essential is that an object should please the eye with its formlineproportion(比例)colour and texture(质地)and it should be capable of inspiring the emotions.For examplecontemporary furniture designers must think of formfunction and structureand have taken their lead from the outstanding Scandinavian designs of DenmarkFinland and Swedenwhose preference was for simple functional furniture to suit the architectural environment of the day.Heavy furniture is no longer desirableand by contrastmodern furniture is often characterised by its good proportionpleasing linessimple fittings and attractive structures.

Motor vehicles are a perfect example of how design has changed to suit function.Early car design was greatly influenced by the horse­drawn carriagebut today we find functional design satisfying every requirement of practical use and good appearance.Designs in the 1980s and 1990s included streamlining(流线型) to reduce wind resistance in fast­moving vehiclesandat the same timesatisfy an important art principle—rhythm.But the cars of todayoften half size of their predecessors(前身)have taken the concept of industrial design way beyond simple strengthcomfort and beauty.They now include safety and ecological characteristicsreflecting the need to be environmentally friendly throughfor examplereduced fuel consumptionwhile at the same time satisfying the need to be stylishand appealing to the eye.For many peoplethe 21st­century car represents the greatest work of art.

1.What point does the writer make about decorating objects?

AIt is something people have always done.

BIt can show the object has a range of functions.

CIt always improves the appearance of an object.

DIt is usually done to make the object more noticeable.

2.The underlined word “fulfil” in Paragraph 3 means “________”

Akeep  Bfind

Cchange  Drealize

3.What is the best title for the text?

AForm Follows Function

BLife Is ArtArt Is Life

CArt in Everyday Life

DThe Best Work of Art

It had been a longhardwonderful day.The two of us had walked from the sea’s edge through the length of a beautiful valleyclimbed a superb mountaintravelled its narrowrocky ridge(山脊)and now stood on its final peaktiredhappy and looking for the perfect campsite.

The experienced backpacker has a natural feeling for such thingsand our eyes were drawn to a small blue circle on the maplike an eye winking at us.We could not see it from where we werebut we followed our judgement and went down steeply until it came into view.

We were right.It was a calm poolwith flat grass beside it.Gently taking our packs offwe made the first of many cups of tea before pulling up our tent.Later that eveningover another cup of tea and after a good mealwe sat outside the tent watching the sunset over a sea dotted with islandstowards one of which a ferry was slowly moving.It is not always so perfectof course.On another tripwith a different companiona thoroughly wet day had ended at a lonely farm.Depressed at the thought of campingwe had knocked and asked if we could use a barn(谷仓) as a shelter.

Backpacking could be defined as the art of comfortableself­sufficient(自给自足的) travel on foot.Everything you need is in the pack on your backand you become emotionally_as_well_as_physically_attached_to_it.I once left my pack hidden in some rocks while I made a long trip to a peak I particularly wanted to climb.I was away for nearly three hours and ended up running the last stretch in fear that my precious pack would not be there.It wasof course.

The speed at which the backpacker travels makes this the perfect way to see any country.You experience the landscape as a slow unfolding scenealmost in the way it was madeand you find time to stop and talk to people you meet.I’ve learned much local history from simply chatting to people I met while walking through an area.At the end of a tripwhether three days or three weeksthere’s a feeling of achievementof having got somewhere under your own power.

After years of going out walking just for the daymany people start backpacking simply through wanting to stay out rather than cut short a trip.
