资料：This exhibition brings together outstanding works from the earliest times to the present in a thematic arrangement that is fresh and unique.

With works spanning 5,000 years, no such cross-cultural exhibition on this scale has ever been attempted. The exhibition features over 150 of the finest bronzes from Asia, Africa and Europe and includes important discoveries as well as archaeological excavations. Many of the pieces have never been seen in the UK.

Arranged thematically, Bronze brings together outstanding works from antiquity to the present. Different sections focus on the Human Figure, Animals, Groups, Objects, Reliefs, Gods, Heads and Busts. The exhibition features stunning Ancient Greek, Roman and Etruscan bronzes, through to rare survivals from the Medieval period. The Renaissance is represented by the works of artists such as Ghiberti, Donatello, Cellini, and later Giambologna, De Vries and others. Bronzes by Rodin, Boccioni, Picasso, Jasper Johns, Moore, Beuys and Bourgeois are representative of the best from the 19th century to today.

Bronze has been employed as an artistic medium for over five millennia. It is an alloy consisting mainly of copper, with lesser amounts of tin, zinc and lead. Due to its inherent toughness and resistance, the material’s uses over the centuries have been remarkably varied. A section of the exhibition has been devoted to the complex processes involved in making bronze, enabling visitors to explore how models are made, cast and finished by a variety of different techniques. The exhibition offers a unique exploration of artistic practice, an understanding of the physical properties and distinctive qualities of bronze, and the rare opportunity to see the very best examples in one place.

Bronze has been organized by the Royal Academy of Arts. The exhibition is curated by Professor David Ekserdjian, of the University of Leicester’s Department of the History of Art and Film, and Cecilia Treves, Exhibitions Curator at the Royal Academy of Arts, with an advisory committee of experts in the relevant fields.

A.the most outstanding works
B.works spanning over 5,000 years
C.its themes
D.important discoveries

本题考查的是推理判断。

【关键词】central features of the exhibition.

【主题句】第1自然段This exhibition brings together outstanding works from the earliest times to the present in a thematic arrangement that is fresh and unique.“这次展览以新鲜又独特的主题形式聚集了从远古时代到现代的杰出作品。”

第2自然段

With works spanning 5,000 years, no such cross-cultural exhibition on this scale has ever been attempted.“作品跨度超过五千年，为历史上首次如此规模的跨文化展览”

【解析】本题的问题是“根据前两段，本次展览的核心特征是______”。根据主题句，原文第一段只有一句话，说明了本次展览作品年代跨度大并且是按主题展示。接下来的第二段第一句说作品年代跨度超过5000年，为历史上首次如此规模的跨文化展览。因此可以推知，本次展览的主要特征是选项B“ works spanning over 5,000 years”（跨度超过5000年的作品）,A意为“最杰出的作品”C意为“它的主题”D意为“重要发现”, 故B选项正确。
