在古代中国有一位艺术家，他的画几乎栩栩如生。

这位艺术家的声誉使他感到骄傲。

这个画家确信他会被选中，但当他把他的杰作呈献给皇帝的首席大臣时，老臣笑了。

这位聪明的老人告诉他去漓江旅行—也许他可以向世界上最伟大的艺术家学到点东西。

艺术家满怀好奇，收拾好行囊离开了。

当他问江岸上的村民在哪里可以找到这位传奇画
家时,他们微笑着指向江边。

第二天早上，他租了一艘船，出发去找那位著名的画家。

当小船在河边缓缓地移动，山峦静静地倒映在水面上，他说不出话来。

他走过乳白色的瀑布和深蓝的群山。

当他看到从河里升起的薄雾和环绕山顶的轻云时，他不禁泪流满面。

最终，地球上最伟大的艺术家，自然母亲，让这位艺术家感到谦卑。

请看答案及详解：
本文是一篇寓言故事，旨在告诉我们有很多东西要向大自然学习,最重要的是谦卑。

61. whose考査定语从句的引导词。

“In ancient China lived an artist.，whose paintings were almost lifelike. 在古代中国有一位艺术家，他的画几乎栩栩如生。

”关系代词whose引导定语从句，先行词artist还原到定语从句中为：the artist’s paintings were almost lifelike. 因此，用关系代词whose作定语，修饰paintings。

62. finest 考查形容词最高级。

“One day the emperor wanted to get his portrait (画像) done so he called all great artists to come and present their finest work, so that he could choose the best. 有一天，皇帝想让人给他画一幅肖像,于是他把所有伟大的画家都请来,展示他们最好的作品,以便他从中挑选最好的(画家)。

”由空格后面的the best可知,空格处也应该填fine 的最高级。

63. be chosen 考查时态和语态。

“The artist was sure he would be chosen, but when he presented his masterpiece to the emperor’s chief minister, the old man laughed. 这个画家确信他会被选中，但当他把他的杰作呈献给皇帝的首席大臣时，老臣笑了。

”主语he和动词choose构成被动关系，需用被动语态，情态动词+be done，表被动。

64. curiosity考查词性转换。

“Filled with curiosity, the artist packed his bags and left. 艺术家满怀好奇，收拾好行囊离开了。

”空格中所填单词在句中作介词with的宾语,故用curious 的名词形式curiosity。

65.When/As 考查状语从句的引导词。

“When/As he asked the villagers on the banks of the river where he could find the legendary (传奇的) artist, they smiled and pointed down the river.当他问江岸上的村民在哪里可以找到这位传奇画家时,他们微笑着指向江边。

”分析句子结构可知,这是一个主从复合句,逗号前面为时间状语从句，表示“当……时”，故用When或As引导。

66 pointed考查谓语动词的时态。

“they smiled and pointed down the river.他们微笑着指向江边。

”and是并列连词,在句中连接两个并列谓语,两个谓语时态要一致，由句中smiled可
知, point也应该用一般过去时。

67. to find 考查非谓语动词。

“The next morning he hired a boat and set out to find the well-known painter. 第二天早上，他租了一艘船，出发去找那位著名的画家。

”to find the well- known painter.是不定式短语作目的状语。

68. gently 考查词性转换。

“As the small boat moved gently along the river he was left speechless by the mountains being silently reflected in the water. 当小船在河边缓缓地移动，山峦静静地倒映在水面上，他说不出话来。

”空格中所填单词在句中修饰谓语动词moved,需用gentle的副词形式gently。

69. surrounding 考查非谓语动词。

“And when he saw the mists rising from the river and the soft clouds surrounding the mountain tops, he was reduced to tears. 当他看到从河里升起的薄雾和环绕山顶的轻云时，他不禁泪流满面。

”surrounding the mountain tops是现在分词短语作后置定语,修饰the soft clouds, surround与逻辑主语the soft clouds之间是主动关系，因此用现在分词。

70.on 考查介词。

“The artist was finally humbled (谦卑) by the greatest artist on earth, Mother Nature. 最终，地球上最伟大的艺术家，自然母亲，让这位艺术家感到谦卑。

”on earth 是固定搭配,意思是“在地球上。
