Renoir.
Pierre Renoir was a famous French artist. His paintings are very popular today because they show colourful, happy scenes, often in bright sunlight. He liked to show the good things in life because he thought there were many bad things around.
He was born in central France in 1841. His father was a tailor and his mother was a dressmaker. The family was poor. They moved to Paris when Pierre was three. As he grew older he showed a talent for drawing. He started work at the age of thirteen, learning how to decorate plates, cups and dishes. Later he studied at the Paris art school and became an artist.
Renoir liked to paint outdoor scenes of everyday life, for example, children on the beach or a woman at the seaside. A hundred years ago, French children did not swim in the sea. They did not have special clothes for the beach and they usually wore hats and gloves, even in the summer.
Renoir loved family life. He often painted pictures of families. Some of his paintings are of his own children. One of his sons, Jean, was also very artistic. He became a world-famous film director.
Pierre Renoir continued working to the end of his life, even when he became ill. He was seventy-eight when he died in 1919.
You can see his pictures in museums and art galleries all over the world. All collectors pay a lot of money for a painting by Renoir. In 2003 his picture of a woman sitting in her garden was sold for $23.5 million.

Task 2. Read the following passage.
For Questions 1-5, choose the correct answer (A, B, C or D) according to the text.

A recent investigation by scientists at the U.S. Geological Survey shows that strange animal
behavior might help predict future earthquakes. Investigators found such occurrences in a ten kilometer radius of the epicenter of a fairly recent earthquake. Some birds screeched and flew about widely; dogs yelped and ran around uncontrollably.
Scientists believe that animals can perceive these environmental changes as early as several
days before the mishap.
In 1976 after observing animal behavior, the Chinese were able to predict a devastating
earthquake. Although hundreds of thousands of people were killed, the government was able to
evacuate millions of other people and thus keep the death toll at a lower level.
1.What prediction may be made by observing animal behavior?
A an impending earthquake
B the number of people who will die
C the ten-kilometer radius of the epicenter
D environmental changes

2.Why can animals perceive these changes when humans can not?
A Animals are smarter than humans.
B Animals have certain instincts that humans don’t possess.
C By running around the house, they can feel the vibrations.
D Humans don’t know where to look.

3.Which of the following is NOT true?
A Some animals may be able to sense an approaching earthquake.
B By observing animal behavior scientists perhaps can predict earthquakes.
C The Chinese have successfully predicted an earthquake and saved many lives.
D All birds and dogs in a ten-kilometer radius of the epicenter went wild before the earthquake.

4.In this passage, the word evacuate most nearly means
A remove
B exile
C destroy
D emaciate

5.If scientists can accurately predict earthquakes, there will be
A fewer animals going crazy
B a lower death rate
C fewer people evacuated
D fewer environmental changes
