Unit 1 Art

Ⅰ.阅读理解

Look around the walls of your classroom.Do you see pictures of paintings？Most of the art on show was probably created by yourself and your classmates，using imagination and your own hands.

Each year in Toronto thousands of school children make the best use of their imaginations and their creative abilities in workshops provided by an organization called the Inner City Angels.These children work directly with professional(专业的)artists on different art programs.

Natalie McHaffie is one of the many professional artists who work with the Inner City Angels.“My purpose is to teach the children about design，”she says.“Once they learn how to put things together，they can use that knowledge for other things they may want to do，such as making a kite or designing a house.”

Recently Ms. McHaffie worked with 16 children at St.Bernard School to create a wall painting in the hallway leading to the kindergarten classroom.Together they designed and did the wall painting during one school week.

When Ms. McHaffie first met the student artists，she told them，“We mus t do a

painting that will not only please the kindergarten kids but will also offer them information.”

Each of the 16 students was asked to imagine and draw ideas for the painting.After discussing the different ideas together，they chose the theme (主题) “The Four Seasons.”

Finishing the painting，four of the student artists had something to say about their experience.

Alfea：“You learn more when you do it yourself.As you go along you keep finding out things you didn’t know before.”

Mauro：“I like working in a gr oup because you get more done than if you work alone.”

Paolo：“It’s been fun working in a group，not the same kind of exciting fun as when you’re playing basketball.When you do art，it makes you feel peaceful.”

Paulina：“You can learn from working with the oth er kids.By talking to each other you can find ways to do things.”
