资料:A man looking for art for his new home has won a $1 million Picasso painting with a $138 raffle ticket. Jeffrey Gonano told the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review he's not sure he'll ever hang the masterpiece in his home in Wexford, in western Pennsylvania, given its value. The 25-year-old Gonano, who works for his family's fire sprinkler business, learned Wednesday that his ticket had won the Paris raffle. Organizers say nearly 50,000 tickets were sold worldwide, for 100 euros apiece, to benefit a Lebanese charity.The 1914 work, "Man in the Opera Hat," dates from Spanish master Pablo Picasso's cubist period. Picasso died in 1973.Gonano said he wants to keep the artwork, which features vivid shapes in opaque gouache paint."Maybe I'll lend it to a museum and let them put it on display rather than putting it in a vault, so other people can enjoy it," he told the newspaper. "It all depends. I don't know what the taxes are or anything."Gonano's girlfriend, Gloria Spataro, said he liked the odds in the contest and felt optimistic. Nonetheless, she presumed he was joking when he said he'd won."He thought the odds were actually pretty good compared to something like a lottery," said Spataro, of Pittsburgh. "He said, 'This will be my only chance to actually own something like this.'"The raffle raised about $3.5 million for the International Association for the Safeguard of Tyr, a UNESCO heritage site, said Reem Chalabi, an education coordinator with the group.Gonano and Spataro had recently begun to explore art galleries, and she had bought him a photograph by a Buddhist artist for Christmas."I'm glad I actually gave it to him before," she said, "because if I gave it to him afterward, that would look pretty insignificant compared to a Picasso."What does the last sentence said by Gloria really mean?A.The Buddhist painting in insignificant.B.The Picasso painting is extremely precious.C.She dislikes the Picasso Painting.D.She will explore more art galleries by herself.
选项
A.The Buddhist painting in insignificant.
B.The Picasso painting is extremely precious.
C.She dislikes the Picasso Painting.
D.She will explore more art galleries by herself.
答案
B
解析
本题考查的是细节理解。
【关键词】last sentence; Gloria; mean
【主题句】第8自然段"I'm glad I actually gave it to him before," she said, "because if I gave it to him afterward, that would look pretty insignificant compared to a Picasso."“我很高兴我以前给过他,”她说,“因为如果我后来把它给了他,那和毕加索相比,那就显得微不足道了。”
【解析】本题的问题是“格洛瑞亚说的最后一句话的真正含义是什么?”。选项A意为“佛教绘画不重要”;选项B意为“毕加索的绘画非常珍贵”;选项C意为“她不喜欢毕加索绘画”;选项D意为“她会自己探索更多的艺术画廊”。根据主题句可知,她的意思是毕加索的画极其珍贵,故选B。
