16、urope, involved a painstaking, laborious process. Wooden planks were joined, covered with gesso (石膏) to prepare the surface for painting, and then polished smooth with special tools. On this perfect surface, the artist would sketch a composition with chalk, refine it with inks, and then begin the de

17、liberate process of applying thin layers of egg tempera (用鸡蛋、水等稀释的颜料或涂料) paint egg yolk in which pigments (颜料) are suspended, with small brushes. The successive layering of these meticulously applied paints produced the final, translucent colors.Backgrounds of gold were made by carefully applying sh

18、eets of gold leaf, and then embellishing (修饰) or decorating the gold leaf by punching it with a metal rod on which a pattern had been embossed (使浮雕). Every step in the process was slow and deliberate, the quick-drying tempera demanded that the artist know exactly where each stroke be placed before t

19、he brush met the panel, and it required the use of fine brushes. It was, therefore, an ideal technique for emphasizing the hard linear edges and pure, fine areas of color that were so much a part of the overall aesthetic (审美) of the time. The notion that an artist could or would dash off an idea in

20、a fit of spontaneous inspiration was completely alien (相异的) to these deliberately produced works.Furthermore, making these paintings was so time-consuming that it demanded assistance. All such work was done by collective enterprise in the workshops. The painter or master who is credited with having

21、created the painting may have designed the work and overseen its production, but it is highly unlikely that the artists hand applied every stroke of the brush. More likely, numerous assistants, who had been trained to imitate the artists style, applied the paint. The carpenters shop probably provide

22、d the frame and perhaps supplied the panel, and yet another shop supplied the gold. Thus, not only many hands, but also many shops were involved in the final product.In spite of problems with their condition, restoration, and preservation many panel paintings have survived, and today many of them ar

26、paintingPassage 2Of all the varieties of music which fill our concert halls, theaters, and nightclubs, only jazz is native American music. Symphonies and concertos, the ancestors of movie and television scores as well as of “serious” or “legitimate” electronic music, were first composed in Germany.

27、Musical comedies descended from opera, which was first performed in Italy. And our ever-popular nightclub singers are the musical heirs of the French singers of chansons (歌曲).The one form of music which did not originate in Europe and which is popular today worldwide is jazz.

29、ce, plenty of freedom to play in whatever variations just as their creative mood happened to lead them along. But during the Swing (摇摆乐) era (1930s - 1950s), impromptu (即兴的) performances gave way to arrangement. It was a period when jazz had its widest popular appeal with the big bands that boasted
