It is commonly believed that the city described in the painting isBianjing (present-day Kaifeng), the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty. 张择端的《清明上河图》是中国艺术的杰作，此画为五米绢笔长卷，它对于我们洞悉12世纪中国的生活面说是极其重要的。 人们通常认为，画中描绘的城市是济京(今开封)，即北来的都城。 The ancient scroll has survived the test of time remarkably well, and is currently housed in thePalace Museum in Beijing. 这幅古老画卷历经沧桑依日完好，现藏于北京故宫博物院。 副词修饰动词 paragraph 2 The scroll consists of three main sections. The first section presents a peacefulscene of rural life near Bianjing, featuring crop fields, a river winding through thelandscape, and farmers hard at work. 全画可分为三部分第一部分展现了汴京近郊恬静的乡村生活，重点描绘了农田，蜿蜒而过的河流和辛斯劳作的农民。 The second section shows the riverbanks and the central bridge alive with activity as boats sail in and out of Bianjing. Civilians can also be seen walking through the city gate in both directions. 第二部分则展现了熙熙攘攘的河岸和中心桥，往来京城的船只穿梭着，城门处能看到进进出出的百姓。 The third and final section pictures life inside the city itself. Here, hundreds of people from all walks of life, including butchers, hairdressers and government officials, can be seen going about their daily business. 第三部分，同时也是最后一部分。描绘了城内的生活。我们能看到数以百计各行各业的人，肉贩，理发匠。官差。都在忙着各自的营生。 The combination of these three sections gives the viewer an idea of what life was like for the people of Bianjing. 三部分综合起来，观者便可对当时京人的生活状况有一大致了解。 paragraph 3 While reading Careful reading: Qingming Scroll Basic information Artist Style Painted on Topic Housed in Three sections Section 1 Section 2 Section 3 Painting techniques Material Impression Zhang Zeduan Chinese art the riverbanks; the central bridge alive with activity a peaceful scene of rural life near Bianjing Palace Museum in Beijing life in Bianjing in China in the 12th century five-metre-long silk scroll life inside the city itself using ink on silk precise brushwork Post-reading Write a summary of the essay.
