1 Match the paintings in the text to the descriptions of the different art movements.
Movement Description Artwork
Cubism Artists uses little cubes and other shapes. Objects and people are often
painted from many different angles and in different shades of a colour.
Impressionism Artists uses bold colours, and thick dabs and blobs of paint. There are
no clear outlines or much details, with one colour blending into the next
and almost no boundaries between them. These paintings are mainly
of outdoor scenes and often play on images of fog, sunlight, clouds and
reflections on water.
Pop Art These art pieces show commonplace objects and recognisable imagery,
and artists make use of bright colours, innovative techniques, mixed media
and collage.
Renaissance Art This was the first time in history that artists represented the world in
a three-dimensional, realistic manner, using techniques to give their
paintings a sense of depth. Subjects were mostly religious. Non-religious
paintings tended to be individual portraits.

How are you? I’m here in New York. I arrived yesterday and I’m settling into my new home in my new city. It’s
all so new and exciting. Where to begin?
Well, my host family is wonderful. My host mother is Mary, my host father is Paul and my new little sister is
Clare. They always have students from abroad, so it is normal for them to have someone new in their home.
I also have my own room. I'm responsible for my own things, so I have to clean my room and do my own
laundry!! Help!! . My new family is very open and have a lot of questions about Argentina. Tomorrow,
I'm going to make some empanadas to introduce them to our wonderful food.
I'm going to visit my new school as well. I wonder what it is like. I hope I make friends there. I'm going to learn
how to use the underground. Hopefully I don’t get lost. I'm also going to start looking for a job. Wish me luck.
I miss you all, but we can talk anytime so call me. My number here is 1-217-548-0872.
Bye!
