Choose the best answer(根据短文内容, 选择最恰当的答案)

    Dinosaurs, one of the most successful groups of animals that have ever lived, evolved(进化) into many sizes and shapes. The word "dinosaur" was invented by Sir Richard Owen in 1842 to describe these "fearfully great reptiles(爬行动物) ".

    Some things to keep in mind about dinosaurs:

    ·Not everything big and dead is a dinosaur. Dinosaurs were a special group of reptiles. Although Pterosaurs(翼龙) were similar, they were not true dinosaurs.

    ·Not all dinosaurs lived at the same time. Different dinosaurs lived at different times. Although you can see Stegosaurus(剑龙) fought against Tyrannosaurus

(暴龙) in some movies like King Kong and Jurassic Park, no Stegosaurus ever saw a Tyrannosaurus. It's because Tyrannosaurus appeared on the Earth about 80 million years after Stegosaurus died out.

    What do you see when you look at abstract (抽象的)art? Can you understand it? 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 didn't 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, Picasso's paintings became more and more abstract. He painted people and things using strange shapes. His work was so strange that many of his workmates didn't 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 wasn't always clear. Dali, another surrealist artist, painted pictures that looked like dreams.

    There are still many abstract artists around the world. That's the way many artists prefer. They want each person to look at art and find their own meaning in it.
