世界各地的艺术家为垃圾回收想出了不少奇特的点子。阅读材料，完成任务。

6.
The Spanish(西班牙的) artist Julio Anaya copied some famous paintings on waste cardboard(硬纸板), like delivery boxes and shoe boxes. He kept the lines, marks and words on the cardboard as part of his art. For example, when he copied Van Gogh’s work, he cut many layers(层) in the cardboard to create the special light and shadow. That helped to show the man’s feelings clearly in the painting.
The Canadian(加拿大的) a图1st Benjamin Von Wong made the sculpture(雕塑) “Giant Plastic Tap(巨型塑料水龙头)”. When the tap is on, it has no water but plastic waste. This fun way made people care about plastic pollution.
Is it a walking robot? No, this is a big sculpture. A German(德国的) artist, HA Schult, used waste washing machines to make it. It’s six metres high and it weighs three tons(吨). It was almost as heavy as the electronic(电子的) waste German families made in 72 seconds(秒). HA Schult called on people to fix electronics, not to throw them away.

任务一：
1. A 【细节理解】由材料中的“The Spanish artist Julio Anaya copied some famous paintings on waste cardboard...”可知，胡里奥·阿纳亚是在废弃的硬纸板上临摹名画的艺术家。
2. C 【细节理解】由材料中的“The Spanish artist Julio Anaya...He kept the lines, marks and words on the cardboard as part of his art.”“...he cut many layers in the cardboard to create the special light and shadow. That helped to show the man’s feelings clearly in the painting.”可知，胡里奥·阿纳亚使用的硬纸板上可能有一些文字；该艺术家切割硬纸板营造出光影；硬纸板上的画能展现出人物情感。文中并未提及胡里奥·阿纳亚用鞋盒临摹梵高的作品。
3. B 【细节理解】由材料中的“The Canadian artist Benjamin Von Wong...When the tap is on, it has no water but plastic waste.”可知，从该水龙头中流出的是塑料垃圾。
