Artis considered by many people to be little more than a decorative means ofgiving pleasure. This is not always the case, however, at times, art may beseen to have purely functional side as well. Such could be said of the sandpaintings of the Navaho Indians of the American Southwest; these have amedicinal as well as an artistic purpose.

According to Navaho traditions, one who suffers from either a mental orphysical illness has in some way disturbed or come in contact with thesupernatural—perhaps a certain animal, a ghost, or the dead. To counteract thisevil contact, the sick person or one of his relatives will attract a powerfulsupernatural being. During the ceremony, which may last from 2to 9days, the“singer” will produce a sand painting on the floor of the Navaho house. On thelast day of the ceremony, the patient will sit on this sand painting and the“singer” will rub the sick parts of the patient’s body with sand from aspecific figure in the sand painting. In this way the patient absorbs the powerof that particular supernatural being and becomes strong like it. After theceremony, the sand painting is then destroyed and disposed of so its power willnot harm anyone. Theart of sand painting is handed down from old “singers” to their students. Thematerials used are easily found in the areas the Navaho inhabit: brown, red,yellow, and white sandstone, which is ground into powder by being crushedbetween two stones much as corn is ground into flour. The “singer” holds asmall amount of this sand in his hand and lets it flow between his thumb andforefinger onto a clean, flat surface on the floor. With a steady hand andgreat patience, he is thus able to create designs of people, snakes and othercreatures that have power in the Navaho belief system. 26. The word “decorative” in Paragraph 1most probably refers to ___. A).functional B).medicinal C).artistic D).pure 27.According to the Navaho traditions,one is ill because he has met with _____. A).something with supernatural powers B).a dead goat C).any animal D).too many dead people 28. How can a sick person recover fromhis illness according to the passage？ A).He must avoid the evil contact. B).He needs help from another powerful supernatural being. C).He must draw a sand painting. D).He must sing at a ceremony. 29. The reason for the sand painting tobe destroyed after the ceremony is _____. A).not to allow others to use it freely B).to harm the patient C).not to harm others D).to protect the patient 30.Which of the following is TRUE of the designs of people, snakes and othercreatures created by the “singer” ？ A).They are sand paintings. B).They have healing powers. C).They attract supernatural beings. D).All of the above

Man has always wanted to fly.Some of the greatest men in history have thought about the problem.One of these，for example，was the great Italian artist, Leonardo da Vinci(达·芬奇).In the sixteenth century he made designs for machines that would fly.But they were never built.Throughout history, other less famous men have wanted to fly.An example was a man in England 800 years ago.He made a pair of wings from chicken feathers.Then he fixed them to his body and jumped into the air from a tall building.He did not fly very far.Instead，he fell to the ground and broke every bone in his body.

The first real steps took place in France, in 1783.Two brothers, the Montgolfiers, made a very large “hot air balloon”.They knew that hot air rises.Why not fill a balloon with it？The balloon was made of cloth and paper.In September of that year，the King and Queen of France came to see the balloon.They watched it carry the very first air passengers into the sky.The passengers were a sheep and a chicken.We do not know how they felt about the trip.But we do know that the trip lasted eight minutes and that the animals landed safely.Two months later，two men did the same thing.They rose above Paris in a balloon of the same kind.Their trip lasted twenty-five minutes and they travelled about eight kilometers. 26.Leonardo da Vinci ______ . A.said that man would fly in the sky one day B.built a kind of machine which never flew C.drew many beautiful pictures of birds D.made designs for flying machine 27.Eight hundred years ago an Englishman ______ . A.made a kind of flying machine B.tried to fly with wings made of chicken feather C.wanted to build a kind of balloon D.tried to fly on a large bird 28.In fact，the Englishman who tried to fly ______ . A.lost his life B.flew only 8minutes C.got badly wounded D.succeeded in flying 29.The very first air passengers in the balloon were ______. A.two animals B.two Frenchmen C.the King and the Queen D.the Montgolfiers 30.When did two Frenchmen rise above Paris？______ A.In December 1783. B.In September 1783. C.In November 1783.
