Module 4　Fine Arts—Western, Chinese and Pop Arts 　　阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。 Seven-year-old artist Kieron Williamson has sold his 16 watercolours for ￡17,000 in just 14 minutes, setting the world record as the youngest successful painter. His latest paintings of landscapes(风景),seascapes and churches were supposed to be on display for a month at the Picturecraft Gallery in Holt. They went on sale at 9 am but were bought by 9:14 am, some by telephone from abroad. Kieron is red hot. People are saying that he could become an all-time great artist. They want his paintings as investment(投资) because they think the price will go up.? The last child artist was Picasso. And Kieron is getting better and better. The pace at which he learns is quite amazing. He has a very mature mind and has mastered certain techniques at an early stage which some artists would take years to perfect. His work has been very unusual and impressive. His use of tone, colour and light is wonderful. The way he gets his paintings to do the talking is extremely good. He just paints when he wants. He still likes playing football and playing computer games like other seven-year-olds. Inspired to start painting on a family holiday in Devon and Cornwall, Kieron was just six when he asked his parents for paper to draw a boat and swiftly developed a mature and confident talent for seascapes and countryside scenes that has been described as close to the“young Picasso”. The talented boy described his show’s sell-out success as“brilliant”.“Painting is my favourite hobby but I like football as well,”said Kieron, who is so absorbed in painting that he is always drawing from getting up to going to school. 1.Kieron Williamson set the world record as the youngest painter by　　　.?
