【2】D

【3】D

【4】C

【解析】作者介紹了畢加索的繪畫風(fēng)格是“不拘風(fēng)格”，不斷探索。

【1】B

推理判斷題。本文作者的寫作意圖是介紹畢加索的繪畫風(fēng)格，“不拘風(fēng)格”正是他的繪畫風(fēng)格。故選B.

【2】D

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。結(jié)合上下文看，該句介紹的是畢加索的繪畫風(fēng)格之一，這種風(fēng)格給人一種雜亂的感覺。句中“he seemed to ...”說明“好像那樣”，但并非真正撕碎。故選D.

【3】D

推理判斷題。從文章最后He showed us what the mind knew as well as what the eyes saw. At the age of 90，he remained as curious about the world as he had been when he was young.可知畢加索終生追求完美，即使90歲高齡，也還像年輕人那樣對世界充滿著好奇，所以才被稱為“the youngest painter in the world”。故選D.

【4】C

推理判斷題。根據(jù)kept on struggling to find the perfect expression till his death in 1973. Some of Picasso's paintings are rich soft colored and beautiful. Others are ugly, cruel and strange.和he remained as curious about the world等內(nèi)容可看出作者是畢加索的忠實崇拜者，對畢加索本人及他的作品給予了極高的評價，故選C.
