“I would almost rather see you dead,” Robert S.Cassatt, a leading banker of Philadelphia shouted when his twenty-year-old eldest daughter announced that she wanted to become an artist.In the 19th century, playing or drawing or painting on dishes was all right for a young lady, but serious work in art was not.And when the young lady's family ranked among (躋身于) the best of Philadelphia's social families, such an idea could not even be considered.
That was how Mary Cassatt, born in 1844, began her struggle as an artist.She did not tremble before her father's anger.Instead, she opposed (抗拒) him with courage and at last made him change his mind.Mary Cassatt gave up her social position and all thoughts of a husband and a family, which in those times was unthinkable for a young lady.In the end, after long years of hard work and perseverance (堅(jiān)持), she became America's most important woman artist and the internationally recognized leading woman painter of the time.
1.What was Cassatt's main reason in opposing his daughter's wish?
[ ]
A.Drawing or painting was simply unthinkable in those days.
B.He thought his daughter had no talent for art.
C.He believed an artist's life would be too hard for his daughter.
D.Ladies of good families should not become artists in those times.
2.What do we know about Mary Cassatt's marriage?
[ ]
A.Her marriage failed because she never gave a thought to her husband and family.
B.She never married because she did not want to be just a wife and a mother.
C.After marriage she decided to give up her husband.
D.She didn't marry because she couldn't find an ideal husband.
3.What did women consider the most important in Mary Cassatt's times?
