科目：初中英語(yǔ) 來源： 題型：

Once there was an unknown young painter who made a living by painting portraits (pictures of persons) . One day,a rich man came by and asked him to draw a portrait for him. They agreed on the pay of 10,000 dollars.

Soon the portrait was finished. But the rich man hit on a bad idea, "The man in the painting is me. If I don't buy this painting,no one else will. Why should I pay so much money for it？”So he said, "I will only pay 3 ,000 dollars."

The young artist was shocked and strongly argued about the fairness. But the rich man just didn't listen to him, "I ask you one last time,will you sell it for 3 ,000 dollars or not?"

The young artist knew the rich man went back on his word on purpose,so he said calmly, "No,I'd prefer not to sell the painting rather than being humiliated by you. But if you break your promise today,you'll pay 20 times of it later. Let's wait and see."

Before long the painter moved out of this sad place,visiting many famous teachers to study hard on painting night and day.

More than a dozen ( means 12) years passed. The rich man had already forgotten the artist's painting and words until one day,some of his friends came to tell him, "It is so strange!We paid a visit to a famous artist's exhibition of paintings,and found that the man on one of the paintings which is marked 200,000 dollars looks exactly the same as you. It is so ridiculous that the title of the painting is Thief."

It was a headon blow to him. He immediately thought up the young painter years ago. If the painting was really the one on which he broke his promise that year,it would be terrible. He went to the exhibition right away. As he feared,the painting named Thief was no other than that one on which he had broken his words that year. He quickly apologized to the artist and paid 200,000 dollars to buy back the portrait.

The young painter finally brought the rich man to his knees. Nobody can really humiliate or beat you as long as you put all your heart in what you are interested in. And this young man's name was Pablo Picasso.

(   ) 6. The rich man changed his mind to pay only 3 ,000 dollars,because         .

   A. became very famous because of the painting Thief
