She was my first teacher of the arts, and my father was the first to appreciate my performance. Even at tha

31、t young age, I had a simple understanding of how art and culture affect us as human beings and how we can connect to each other through the arts, which shapes my life to this day.When I was growing up, my parents supported my interest in taking acting classes and doing community theater. Their faith

32、 in me and the professional training I was getting from my theater teachers gave me a sense of purpose and a sense of self-confidence. I learned what artistic achievement actually was and what hard work the business was. Although many people see the rosy picture to our business, I was really learnin

33、g what it would require for me to become a professional.I became an actress, but arts education isnt just about preparing our young people for a job in the arts. I recently talked to some of the kids attending theater education. Some of them want to work in theater, and some dont. They are learning

34、not only theater skills, but also about the world around them. They learn about discipline(纪律) and hard work and whats required and what they have to do to bring themselves to the work. They learn how they can be of service in the world through the arts. They learn how to work with a team. By studyi

35、ng the arts, these students are open to worlds and lives that they might not have any other way of knowing about or any other way to connect with in their lives the way they are right now.These young people are our future.

39、er persons bargain. That is why so many Americans do not throw things away. They put them outside their houses. They put on a “For Sale” sign. And, as simple as that, they have a yard sale.The sellers put a paid announcement in a local newspaper. It tells when and where the yard sale will take place

40、. These sales are very popular during weekends in spring, summer, and autumn. Early in the morning, all the things to be sold are carried out o f the house. Then they sit all day in the sunlight-like tired guests at a party -waiting for someone to take them home.Just about anything can be sold at a

41、yard sale. Sometimes, there are more clothes than anything else. Cooking equipment is also popular. So are old toys, tools, books, tables and chairs. Then there are objects called “white elephants”. A white elephant is something that you think is extremely ugly or useless. It may be an electric ligh

42、t shaped like a fish. You feel a sharp pain whenever you look at it. To someone else, however, it might be a thing of beauty and joy.Some people go to yard sales to find aa special thing that they collect. It may be old toy trains, for example, or painting of dogs. Experts say more Americans are col

43、lecting old things now than ever before. Most people who go to yard sales, however, are not looking for anything special. They might buy an object simply because it costs so little.

47、owing cause for concern. Tired of having to constantly(不断地) warn both locals and tourists to pay more attention to their surrounding to avoid serious accidents, authorities of a small German town have come up with a more positive solution -installing traffic lights in the pavement to make them visib

48、le to people constantly looking down at their phones while walking.The seemingly ridiculous safety measure was put in place. Authorities in Augsburg decided to act, installing ground level traffic lights at two tram(有轨电车) stops last Tuesday. The lights flash red every time a tram is coming, or when

49、the regular traffic light turns red. “We realized that the normal traffic light isnt in the line of sight of many pedestrians these days,” said Tobias Hermes, a city administration official. “So we decided to have an additional set of lights -the more we have, the more people are likely to notice th

50、em.”Some Augsburg residents appear to be quite happy with the idea. “I think it makes sense,” said Jack Smith, “One always sees young people these days running over red lights. This makes it more obvious that you need to stop.” Others, however, found theneed for ground traffic lights disturbing and

51、even frightening. “I find it rather frightening that smart phone users are so engrossed that they need to install lights in the ground so that they notice the tram coming,” one person told the local paper.But do this kind of pavement-installed lights actually work? Well, if one interviewed teenager

52、is to be believed, not really, “To be honest I didnt even notice it,” he said, “Maybe itd be useful at night, but yeah, I didnt realize it was there until just now.”The word “smombie” -a mashup(糅合)of the words smartphone and zombie(麻木迟钝的人) -was born in Germany.

Seeing this, the man quickly led the horse back to the market. He gave the horse back to the owner and refused to buy it.
