Suggesting much personal and emotional content, her worksmany of them self-portraitshave been exhaustively psychoanalyzed, while their political content has been less studied. Yet Kahlo was an ardent political activist who in her art sought not only to explore her own roots, but also to champion Mexicos struggle for an independent political and cultural identity.Kahlo was influenced by Marxism, which appealed to many intellectuals in the 1920s and 1930s, and by Mexican nationalism. Interest in Mexicos culture and history had revived in the nineteenth century, and by the early 1900s, Mexican indigenista tendencies ranged from a violently anti-Spanish idealization of Aztec Mexico to an emphasis on contemporary Mexican Indians as the key to authentic Mexican culture. Mexican nationalism, reacting against contemporary United States political intervention in labor disputes as well as against past domination by Spain, identified the Aztecs as the last independent rulers of an indigenous political unit. Kahlos form of Mexicanidad, a romantic nationalism that focused upon traditional art uniting all indigenistas, revered the Aztecs as a powerful pre-Columbian society that had united a large area of the Middle Americas and that was thought to have been based on communal labor, the Marxist ideal.In her paintings, Kahlo repeatedly employed Aztec symbols, such as skeletons or bleeding hearts that were traditionally related to the emanation of life from death and light from darkness. These images of destruction coupled with creation speak not only to Kahlos personal battle for life, but also to the Mexican struggle to emerge as a nationby implication, to emerge with the political and cultural strength admired in the Aztec civilization. Self-portrait on the Border between Mexico and the United States (1932), for example, shows Kahlo wearing a bone necklace, holding a Mexican flag, and standing between a highly industrialized United States and an agricultural, preindustrial Mexico. On the United States side are mechanistic and modem images such as smokestacks, light bulbs, and robots. In contrast, the organic and ancient symbols on the Mexican sidea blood-drenched Sun, lush vegetation, an Aztec sculpture, a pre-Columbian temple, and a skull alluding to those that lined the walls of Aztec templesemphasize the interrelation of life, death, the earth, and the cosmos.Kahlo portrayed Aztec images in the folkloric style of traditional Mexican paintings, thereby heightening the clash between modem materialism and indigenous tradition; similarly, she favored planned economic development, but not at the expense of cultural identity. Her use of familiar symbols in a readily accessible style also served her goal of being popularly understood; in turn, Kahlo is viewed by some Mexicans as a mythic figure representative of nationalism itself.31.Which one of the following best expresses the main point of the passage?32.Which one of the following statements concerning psychoanalytic and political interpretations of Kahlos work would the author be most likely to agree?33.Which one of the following stances toward the United States does the passage mention as characterizing Mexican nationalists in the early twentieth century?34.In the context of the passage, which one of the following phrases could best be substituted for the word romantic（Paragraph 2, Line 7） without substantially changing the authors meaning?35.The passage implies that Kahlos attitude toward the economic development of Mexico was（）.问题1选项A.The doctrines of Marxist ideology and Mexican nationalism heavily influenced Mexican painters of Kahlos generation.B.Kahlos paintings contain numerous references to the Aztecs as an indigenous Mexican people predating European influence.C.An important element of Kahlos work is conveyed by symbols that reflect her advocacy of indigenous Mexican culture and Mexican political autonomy.D.The use of Aztec images and symbols in Kahlos art can be traced to the late nineteenth-century revival of interest in Mexican history and culture.问题2选项A.The psychoanalytic interpretations of Kahlos work tend to challenge the political interpretations.B.Political and psychoanalytic interpretations are netplementary approaches to Kahlos work.C.Recent political interpretations of Kahlos work are causing psychoanalytic critics to revise their own interpretations.D.Unlike the political interpretations, the psychoanalytic interpretations make use of biographical facts of Kahlos life.问题3选项A.Opposition to United States involvement in internal Mexican affairs.B.Desire to decrease emigration of the Mexican labor force to the United States.C.Desire t
