There was once a King and he wanted to find out who could paint the best picture of peace. And he would offer a prize to the artist. Many artists tried. The King looked at all the pictures but there were only two he really liked and he had to choose between them.

One picture was of a calm(平靜的) lake. The lake was a perfect mirror for peaceful mountains all around it. Overhead was a blue sky with white soft clouds. Everyone thought that was a perfect picture of peace.

The other picture had mountains too. But these were rugged(崎嶇的） and bare（無遮蔽的）.

Above was an angry sky, And it was raining and lightening. Down the side of the mountain, a waterfall fell quickly. This did not look peaceful at all.

But when the King looked carefully, he saw behind the waterfall a bush(矮樹叢)growing in a crack（裂縫） in the rock． In the bush a mother bird had built her nest（巢，窩）， There， she sat on her nest ... in perfect peace.

Which picture do you think won the prize?

【答案】

【1】To paint the best picture of peace.

【2】That was a perfect picture of peace

【3】Because he thought it had the real meaning of peace.

【5】Real Meaning of Peace

【解析】

本文主要講的是國王尋找關(guān)于和平的最佳畫作的故事，在評價環(huán)節(jié)出現(xiàn)了兩幅畫作，國王卻喜歡那副大眾不在意的，畫面中充滿噪音、喧鬧的畫作，后來國王以獨特的視角做出了解釋，認(rèn)為真正的平和是內(nèi)心的平和。

【1】題干意思：國王想讓藝術(shù)家做什么？ （不超過10個單詞）。文章首句“There was once a King and he wanted to find out who could paint the best picture of peace.”（曾經(jīng)有一位國王，他想找出誰可以畫出關(guān)于和平的最佳畫作。），所以可以得出國王的目的，這里用不定式結(jié)構(gòu)來表達(dá)目的，填To paint the best picture of peace.

【2】題干意思：每個人對第一張照片有什么看法？（不超過7個單詞），原文“Everyone thought that was a perfect picture of peace.”（每個人都認(rèn)為這是和平的完美圖景。），從這里可以得出每個人對第一張圖的觀點，故填That was a perfect picture of peace.

【3】題干意思：為什么國王選擇了第二張照片？（不超過11個單詞），原文“Because peace does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble, or hard work.”（因為和平并不意味著在沒有噪音，麻煩或辛勤工作的地方。），這句話是國王做出的解釋，為了用限定的字?jǐn)?shù)回答問題，可以改寫成“他認(rèn)為這幅畫擁有和平的真實含義”，填Because he thought it had the real meaning of peace.

【4】“mean”為“意思是”；“those things”指的是“noise, trouble, or hard work”這些煩擾之事，“be calm in your heart”意思是“內(nèi)心要寧靜，要冷靜”，整合起來，就是：身處如此多的煩擾之中，而依然能心存安寧，才是真正的寧靜。

【5】本文主要講的是國王尋找關(guān)于和平的最佳畫作的故事，在評價環(huán)節(jié)，國王以獨特的視角解釋了和平真正的含義，所以標(biāo)題可以選“Real Meaning of Peace”。
