V. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet
to indicate the correct answer to each of the following questions.(1 Point)
A wonderful new show of paintings opened in New York last week. Maria
Arroyo, the artist, is new to New York. She is not a new artist, however. She grew up in
Mexico. She studied with several famous artists in Mexico City and then in New York.
Five years ago, she married Ted Diamond, a reporter from the New York Times. They
moved to Brazil, where her work became quite popular. She won several important
awards in Brazil and showed her work in Mexico and other countries.
Ms. Arroyo is a small, quiet person, but her paintings are very large. They are full
of colour and excitement. She explained that the colours she uses are Mexican colours.
In Mexico, the sky and the sea are usually very bright blue. The houses are often bright
colours, too.
In her paintings, the excitement comes partly from these colours. It also comes
from her style. She likes to paint large shapes that seem to move. Ms. Arroyo's
paintings do not show us the real world. Instead, they show us her feelings about the
world. We look forward to seeing more work from this very fine artist.
