第16題：

DemetriuswasateenagerborninNewYork.

A.Right

B.Wrong

C.Notmentioned

參考答案：C

文章的第1段提到“sincea17-year-oldcalledDemetriusstartedspraying

histag,TAKI183,allovertheNewYorkundergroundn,由此可以得知他

是一名青少年，但是沒(méi)有證據(jù)顯示他來(lái)自于紐約，因此該語(yǔ)句在文中沒(méi)有提到。

第17題：

ThegraffitischemeinRochdalewasforteenagersonly.

A.Right

B.Wrong

C.Notmentioned

參考答案：B

第2段中間一1句"Theschemestartedin2000,andhasattractedpeopleof

artistscame.

A.Right

B.Wrong

C.Notmentioned

參考答案：C

6

wereafraidtousethesubway.”，意思是在有組織的涂鴉藝術(shù)家們集中在

地鐵涂鴉之前，人們害怕搭乘地鐵，但是文中沒(méi)有說(shuō)到人們是否喜歡乘坐地鐵。

第19題：

Sincetheschemestarted,newwallinthetownweresprayedwithgraffiti.

A.Right

B.Wrong

C.Notmentioned

參考答案：B

文中第2段最后一句提到自從該計(jì)劃實(shí)施以來(lái)，由于給藝術(shù)家們提供了展示他們

作品的場(chǎng)所，在居民的私人財(cái)產(chǎn)上涂鴉的現(xiàn)象有所下降。很顯然不可能有新的墻

壁被亂涂亂畫(huà)。

第20題：

MostoftheothergraffitiartistsinEnglandwereabouttenyearsolder

thanTemper.

A.Right

B.Wrong

C.Notmentioned

參考答案：A

本題給出的信息正確。從第3段第4句“at12yearsold,Temperstarted

paintingwithalltheseguyshe'dhookedupwithwhowereabout22years

old",可知泰普12歲時(shí)和其他藝術(shù)家一起開(kāi)始繪畫(huà)，他們大約比他大十歲。

第21題：

Temper,astreetartist,isnowheadofgraffiticlubinEngland.

A.Right

B.Wrong

C.Notmentioned

參考答案：B

文中最后一段提到作為一名涂鴉藝術(shù)家，泰普敬佩并喜歡上了英國(guó)

Wolvehampicn的藝術(shù)家們。并沒(méi)有說(shuō)他現(xiàn)在是涂鴉俱樂(lè)部的負(fù)責(zé)人。

第22題：

參考答案：A

文中最后一段提到"Thewholehip-hopscenewasbuiltupofdifferentthings

andIdidabitofeverything.”他參與了有關(guān)嘻哈（文化）的各種活動(dòng)，因

此該判斷正確。
