    There is a tendency to think of each of the arts as separate area of activity. Many artists, however, would prove there has always been a warm relationship between the a warm relationship areas of human activity. For example, in the late nineteenth century the connections between music and painting were especially close. Artists (invite) to design clothes and settings for operas and ballets, sometimes it was the musicians who were inspired by the work of contemporary painters. Of the musical compositions as responses to the visual arts, perhaps the most famous is Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition.

    Mussorgsky composed the piece in 1874 after the death, at the age of 39, of the artist Victor Hartman. their friendship had not been a particularly long-lasting one, Mussorgsky was shocked by Hartmann's unexpected death. The following year the critic, Vladimir Stasov, decided to told an exhibition of Hartmann's work, suggested that Mussorgsky (try) to relieve his grief by writing something in memory of Hartmann.

    The exhibition served as Mussorgsky's inspiration. The ten pieces that make up Pictures at an Exhibition (intend) as symbols rather than representation of the paintings in the exhibition. Between each is a promenade (舞曲中 行进), as the composer walks from one painting to The music is sometimes witty and playful, sometimes almost alarming and frightening. Thought a range of surprising contrasts, Mussorgsky manages (convey) the spirit of the artist and his work.

阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。

    When it comes to climate change, language does count. In March, the Guardian changed{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(it) wording – using "global heating" instead of "global warming" , after scientists found that Earth's temperature is set {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(rise) from between 2.5C and 4.5C. And on May 1, the UK parliament declared a "climate emergency", {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(become)the first parliament to do so.

    If with "global warming", we're still inside our comfort zone of handling the situation, entering the state of "global heating" is like heading to a point {#blank#}4{#/blank#} the delicate balance of nature is disturbed so much that there is no turning back. Everything will be changing: Coral will die, polar bears will lose their habitats completely, and extreme{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (weather) like droughts and heavy storms will happen at a higher{#blank#}6{#/blank#} (frequent). There is no denying that we're entering a climate emergency.

    Decades ago when the science on the climate issue was first increasing, the impacts could be seen as an issue for future generations," but now it's {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(definite) our issue, {#blank#}8{#/blank#}shift we all are living together.

    However, getting these messages {#blank#}9{#/blank#} is far from enough. It depends on each to find a solution – if there are any solutions left to find. The UK's Labor leader Jeremy urged that "we {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(take) rapid and dramatic action now".

    Indeed, language matters. But action matters even more.
