Does it look like anything?Abstract art became popular in the early 20th century. Artists did not want to paint, draw, or sculpt things exactly like they looked. They didnt want their art to be realistic(现实的). They were more interested in basic shapes and colours.Picasso is probably the most famous of these artists. He painted and drew in many, many styles. Sometimes he used a lot of blue colours (his blue period). Later, he used more red and pink colours (his rose period). Many of his other paintings are called cubist (立体派的) because they are made of painted squares. After a long time, Picassos paintings became more and more abstract. He painted people and things using strange shapes. His work was so strange that many of his workmates didnt understand it. Kandinsky, another famous artist, used lines, shapes, and patterns to paint his subjects. His paintings also used strong colours to express feelings. Other artists like the surrealists (超现实主义画家)，were interested in subconsciousness (潜意识). Painters like Breton and Magritte used many symbols in their work. The meaning or subject of their work wasnt always clear. Dali, another surrealist artist, painted pictures that looked like dreams. There are still many abstract artists around the world. Thats the way many artists prefer. They want each person to look at art and find their own meaning in it. （1） Which would be most like abstract art? A . A painting of a house.B . A sculpture of a car.C . A drawing of two people in a coffee house.D . A red and blue painting, with no clear subject.（2） What happened to Picassos work after a long time? A . It became more abstract.B . It became less strange.C . He went from using red colours to using blue colours.D . He only painted with coloured squares.（3） How did Kandinsky express feelings? A . By using strong colours.B . By painting realistic people.C . By painting with a lot of symbols.D . By painting in red and pink colours.（4） Which of the following is NOT true? A .
