The main color was blue. In this painting, Picasso showed the life of poor unhappy people. Step III Reading Task 1 Fast reading
T: You can see four beautiful paintings. On the right of them are six short passages, which tell something about the paintings. I allow you five minutes to read the paragraphs. Then match paintings 1 － 4 with descriptions in paragraphs A － D. Five minutes later.

S: Picture 4 is by a famous American artist named Roy Lichtenstein. So Picture 4 matches Paragraph B. T: Do you agree with him / her? Ss: Yes.
T: Good. Now read the passages again and say which paintings are mentioned in Paragraphs E and F.

the twentieth century.

T: Yesterday I asked you to write about your favorite artists. Now I’d like some students to report your homework. Any volunteer?
S1: My favorite artist is Hua Qunwu who is a caricaturist. He was famous for the caricatures he created. Many of his caricatures satire the ugly aspects of society. I like his works. Often his drawings teach us a lot. We can also learn about his views. I think he is a great artist.
S2: Xu Beihong is one of my favorite artists. I admire him a lot. He was an outstanding painter and also an educator of art. In his early years, he went to France and studied there. After graduation he went home. Many of his works are highly thought of. His picture with six running horses is most famous. It seems as if they were running towards you. His works show high techniques and suggest strong national color. He is honored as the founder of realistic art education. Many of his oil paintings, drawings, sketches and traditional Chinese paintings are always shown in Xu Beihong Museum built for him by the Chinese government.
S3: Qi Baishi was one of my favorite artists. He was born in Hunan. He is a master of art, and is outstanding in his personality, drawing, poetry, handwriting and carving. He was an expert in drawing birds. All his works show a lively atmosphere. He is honored as “the artist of the people”. One of his works that is about some shrimps, is my favorite.

A multimedia computer, a projector and some slides. Teaching procedures & ways 教学过程与方式 Step I Topic Sentences Task 1
Ask the students to look through the passage in READING AND VOCABULARY and find the topic sentence in each paragraph.
T: I allow you a few minutes to read the passage in READING AND VOCABULARY again and find the topic sentence in each paragraph. A few minutes later.
T: Have you finished? Let’s check your answers.
S1: The topic sentence in Paragraph A is: This is a painting by the Spanish artist, Pablo Picasso, considered to be the greatest western artist of the twentieth century.

Let the students do Activity 1 in WRITING.
T: Look at the sentences of Activity 1 in WRITING. Put them into the right order to make a paragraph. Find the topic sentences first. After several minutes, check the answers. Step II Writing Task
Write a paragraph that begins with the topic sentence given.
In this part, the teacher can read out the topic sentence, and then ask the students to write a paragraph individually. Then they can exchange their writings with their partners and correct the mistakes. After that ask a few students to read out their paragraphs to the whole class. At last, show them a model passage.
T: Now, let’s go on with Activity 2. I’d like you to write a paragraph using the topic sentence given. Before you write, please read the writing tips on the slide. Show the tips on the slide and ask the students to read them as quickly as possible. Learning to learn
When you write a paragraph in English, remember that you can use relative
pronouns to write longer and more interesting sentences.
That’s one of the differences between Chinese and English. Chinese sentences
tend to be shorter.
T: OK. I allow you a few minutes to discuss the topic sentence and then you should finish your writings in about fifteen minutes. Sample version 1:
Everyone agrees that traditional Chinese paintings are very beautiful. The
paintings not only show the beautiful scenery of nature, but also reflect the feelings of the artists. Seeing the paintings, we can enjoy the beauty of nature. Besides, we can learn a lot from the paintings, which often make us love the mountains and rivers of our country. While appreciating the paintings, we can’t help admiring the creativities
of the artists and making up our minds to make the greatest contributions to our country. It can also widen our horizons, and mould our characters. Sometimes the influence they leave us is beyond description. We are all proud of our Chinese traditional paintings and our country. Sample version 2:
Everyone agrees that traditional Chinese paintings are very beautiful. This kind of
painting is known for its brush drawings in black inks and natural colors. Chinese history is full of famous artists who are known for their contributions to traditional Chinese painting. From ancient China up to now, such artists as Wu Daozi who lived in the Tang Dynasty and Zhang Zeduan in the Song Dynasty as well as Qi Baishi and Zhang Daqian have left us great cultural heritages. They not only show us the beautiful nature, but also their feelings as well as their views on society and life. They have a great influence on us. Their works have long been greatly admired and highly valued.
Sample version 3:
Everyone agrees that traditional Chinese paintings are very beautiful. These
artists paint in watercolors and inks, using soft brushes. They often use lines to outline the beautiful scenery or people’s activities or both from different aspects. Let’s take two famous artists in the Song Dynasty for example. Zhang Zeduan was famous for his immortal painting showing the busy market in Bianjing during the Qingming Festival. He showed the prosperous market as well as the beautiful scenery, making us know a lot about that period of time. Another artist who also lived at that time was Wang Ximeng. He was well-known for his painting named Qian Li Jiang Shan Tu. In the painting he drew the undulating mountains and the extending rivers, the villages and the actions of many people. Their works are collected and highly valued. Step III Speaking and Writing (WORKBOOK)
This step is designed to train the students’ speaking and writing abilities. Ask them to discuss the statements and decide which they agree and disagree with and write a short passage based on the topic sentences listed in Exercise 17. Task 1 Speaking
T: Now turn to workbook. Let’s come to Exercise 17. I’d like you to decide which of the opinions you agree or disagree with. After a few minutes.
T: Are you ready? Please tell me your opinions.
S1: Yes. I agree with c. Landscape paintings show us the beautiful landscapes as well as human activities sometimes. But portraits only show us people’s images. S2: I agree with f. Traditional art styles are more realistic, while most modern art is abstract and it’s difficult to understand its deeper meanings.
S3: I agree with j. Art is very important. We should pay more attention to it at school. S4: I disagree with b. Paintings should be part of our life. Buying them is not a waste of money.
S5: I can’t agree with d. Science is important, but art is equally important. S6: I don’t think i is right. Not everybody can enjoy paintings and drawings. ...
Then deal with Exx. 18 ＆ 19. Task 2 Writing
T: Now I’d like you to choose one of the topic sentences in Activity 17 and write a paragraph. Sample version 1:
Everyone thinks life without art would be awful. I can’t agree more. Art can
widen our horizons, make us enjoy the beauty of our life, and enrich our life. It arouses us to love nature and our life. It is art that makes us learn about history and today, mak us value history and look forward to the future. Also art has a great influence on the shaping of our character. Humans can’t improve the spiritual life without art. Art will develop with life and society for ever. Sample version 2:
Art should be a lot more important at school. As we all know, art was originated
from people’s needs and it is an important part of our life. Art has a great influence on the shaping of character.
Life without art is unimaginable. To help us students develop fully and healthily,
schools should provide enough art lessons for us. Unfortunately, we have only one art lesson a week, which is far from enough. I hope that our school will offer us enough art lessons. Sample version 3:
Some people think art isn’t so important as science. Is it really so? Of course
science has greatly changed people’s life and their thoughts. With the development of science, our life is changing day by day. People enjoy all the benefits brought by science. But can we live without art? Art widens our horizons, makes us love nature and makes our spiritual life colorful. Without art, our horizons would be limited and our spirit would be barren. It is art that makes our life becomes beautiful and colorful. Depending on science and neglecting art will be dangerous for the development of character. Science and art are both important for our whole society, and they can’t be separated from each other. Step IV Homework
Go over and summarize what you have learned in this module.

III. 文化背景知识
Qi Baishi （1863-1957）and His Paintings
Qi Baishi is one of the greatest Chinese painters. Chinese tradition
places essences, character, and spirit above the simple faithfulness to appearances. Qi Baishi’s paintings well represent the Chinese tradition, but in an innovative form and
style. Though the art of Qi Baishi was originated from nature, which one can learn from his paintings of animals, insects, and flowers, he painted them in a way nobody else had achieved before. He once said, “The excellence of a painting lies in its being alike, yet unlike. Too much likeness flatters the vulgar taste; too much unlikeness deceives the world.” Qi Baishi had developed his style over his life-long learning, studying and innovation. His paintings were not matured until his late life. Xu Beihong（1895-1953）
Xu Beihong is a great artist in the modern history of China. He was
born in the countryside of Jiangsu province in 1895.
His parents were so poor that they had no money to buy him toys. He had to play with the animals around and began to love them. He always watched them carefully and tried to draw them with fingers, pencils or writing brush. He worked very hard.
When he was already a young man, Xu Beihong went to France to learn drawing
from the French artists.
He became a well-known artist both in China and in the world. In his later years
he kept a good number of cats not only because he loved them, but also because he wanted to draw them. The artist was always watching the and he drew them in a lively way.
Once you have a good look at the artist’s drawing of cats, it seems that they are
alive, running to you out of the picture. Some of them are playing in the tree or on a stone, others are sitting under a tree. Every cat looks lovely.
If you look carefully at the beautiful pictures of cats, you could find some of them
are happy, some sorry, and others angry.
People only know Xu Beihong’s drawing of horses, but the artist himself would
rather enjoy his drawing of cats.
Modern Chinese Figure Painting
Since the Song and Yuan dynasties, the painting style of the literati has
constituted the mainstream of Chinese painting; and most pictures depict things of the natural world, such as landscape, flowers and birds. Figure painting developed rather slowly. As modern realist art began to influence China at the beginning of this century, the number of figure paintings increased. The introduction of Western realistic painting skills after the founding of New China, and the start of sketching classes with live models in Chinese art schools further stimulated the development of figure painting in China. Many new figure painting artists, such as Wang Menglie, Liu Wenxi, Fang Zengxian, Yang Zhiguang, Li Zhenjian and Zhou Sicong, have made their names known in the society. They comprise the new Chinese figure painting generation after Xu Beihong and Jiang Zhaohe.
