The renaissance period had a deep effect on European culture development. Having its beginnings in Italy, by the 16th century, it had spread to the rest of Europe. Its influence was felt in different fields such as philosophy, literature, religion, science, politics, and, of course, art. The scholars of the renaissance period applied the humanist method in every field of study, and wanted human emotion and realism in art. Renaissance scholars studied the ancient Latin and Greek texts, searching the monastic(修道院的)libraries of Europe for works of ancient times that had bee obscure, in their hunt for improving and perfecting their worldly knowledge. This was pletely different from the religion that Christianity(基督教)stressed. However, that does not mean that they refused Christianity. In fact, much of the greatest works of the renaissance period was devoted to it, with the church supporting a lot of the works of renaissance art. However, there were slight changes in the manner in which the scholars began to treat religion, which affected the cultural life of the society, which in turn influenced the artists of that period and therefore was reflected in their art. In Raphaels School of Athens, for example, some well-known people were described as classical scholars, with Leonardo da Vinci being given as much importance as Plato in his time. Giotto di Bondone, 12671337, a Florentine, who is regarded as the greatest Italian painter just earlier than the renaissance period, is thought to be the first artist who treated a painting as a window into space. However, it was only after the writings of Filippo Brunelleschi, 13771446, who is considered the first great builder of the Italian Renaissance, that perspective was formally accepted as an artistic technique. 【文章大意】文章介紹了文藝復(fù)興的發(fā)源地意大利在當(dāng)時(shí)的背景下的文化特色和相關(guān)藝術(shù)家在這個(gè)時(shí)期的作用。1.

The U. S. -style scheme would see the long-term jobless ordered to take up four-week placements in order to get them used to having a full-time job. The idea is part of major reforms, due to be unveiled this week, to make cuts to Britains huge welfare bill, reduce dependency on benefits and weed out those earning money but not declaring it, papers said. “What we are talking about here is people who have not been used to working having both the opportunity and perhaps a bit more of a push as well, to experience the workplace from time to time. The vast majority of people in Britain will think that is the right thing to do. ”Foreign Secretary William Hague told BBC TV. Shortly after the Conservative-Liberal Democrat Union took power in May, Work and Pensions Secretary Iain Duncan Smith unveiled plans to simplify the plex web of benefits available to reduce errors and inefficiencies. Duncan Smith said the system had bee regressive and was not giving people the right encouragement to work as many were financially better off unemployed. Under his plans, separate benefits for items such as housing, ine support or disability will be replaced by a“universal credit”system whereby(靠那個(gè))individual households would get a single welfare payment to ensure those in work would be better off. The Observer newspaper said that in return, long-term unemployed would be told to take up work placements of at least 30 hours a week for a four-week period. If they refuse or fail to plete the programme, their jobseekers allowance, worth 64. 30 pounds a week for those over 25, could be stopped for at least three months. 【文章大意】由于英國的福利過高, 再加上近年來的經(jīng)濟(jì)危機(jī)造成的高失業(yè)率, 越來越多的英國人不愿再去勞心費(fèi)力地工作, 干脆賴在家里向政府伸手要錢。當(dāng)局為了減少養(yǎng)“好逸惡勞者”的經(jīng)費(fèi), 出臺強(qiáng)制性勞動(dòng)方案, 要求失業(yè)的人從事勞力工作, 以此督促他們積極尋找工作。5.

They are for it since its unfair for the employed and unemployed. D.
