The name of the 　　1　　 artist Picasso is very famous in the West. Today Picasso 　　2　　 “art”. Picasso started off with various styles of painting until he invented “Cubism(立体派)”.?

Picasso's father was also a painter, a Professor of Art at the local school of fine arts (美术). He taught his son how to draw figures and how to paint 　　3　　 oils and took him to some of the schools of art that he himself 　　4　　 .Although he was Spanish, Picasso spent much of his life in Paris and never took part in　　5　　 the Spanish Civil War, World War I or World War II.?

Picasso's 　　6　　 life was very unconventional(非传统的). He had four children 　　7　　 three different women, two wives and many lovers. In 1961, however, he married and stayed with Jacqueline Roque 　　8　　 the end of his life in 1973.?

Picasso produced paintings of acrobats (杂技演员) at the beginning of his 　　9　　 and moved into a different style when he started painting pictures of artists. 　　10　　 he developed his works into the famous style which is known as “Cubism”. He also created 　　11　　 and wrote poetry.?

Picasso 　　14　　 this style of painting with a colleague, Georges Braque in 1909. They painted objects by 　　15　　 them into small pieces and then viewed and painted them from several angles at once. 　16　　 used brown colors for the paintings.?

The Cubism Movement started with Picasso and Braque in Montmartre， Paris, and 　　17　　 rapidly among the artists. It began to develop into a second phase(阶段), in which artists added 　　18　　 objects to the painting in various materials, such as cloth or newspaper. In 　　19　　 1950's Picasso's works went through more changes when he started to look at the grand masters of art, like Velasquez.?

In his 80's and 90's he began to paint a mixture of many styles that he kept changing. Only after his death 　　20　　 fully appreciate his great achievements and in 1999 one of his paintings sold for us﹩51 million.

Today I am known for my voice. Perhaps the greatest honor came when I was asked to read The New Testament《新约全书》 on　 tape.

But it 36 a long time to believe such good things could happen to me. When I was a child, I stuttered（结巴）so badly that I was completely 37 to speak in public.

38 , when I was 14, Professor Donald Crouch came to my school. He was a retired college professor. English was his favorite subject and 39 was his deepest love. He held a book of poems as if it were a crystal(水晶), 40 pages as if uncovering treasures . When he heard that our school was teaching Shakespeare and other classics, he felt 41 for not being a part of our school sooner.

When he 42 that I not only loved poetry but was 43 it, we became closer. There was, however, one 44 between us—Professor Crouch could not stand the 45 that I refused to read my poems to the class.

“Jim, poetry is 46 to be read aloud,” he said. “You should be able to speak those beautiful words.” I shook my head and 47 .

One day he 48 me.

After handing in a poem, I waited for his 49 . It didn’t come. Instead, one day as the students had gathered together, he 50 me, “Jim, I don’t think you wrote this poem.”

I stared at him in disbelief. “Why,” I started to cry, 51 flooding me, “of course I did!” Well, then,” he said, “you’ve got to prove it by getting up and reciting it from 52 .“

By then the other students had settled at their desks. With knees shaking, I walked up to the front. For a moment I stood there, 53 . Then I began, and kept going. I recited my poem all the way 54 !

Afterwards, Professor Crouch encouraged me to read other writers’ poetry before the public. I discovered I did have a( n) 55　　　 and found my classmates actually looked forward to hearing me recite.
