29、 years old, had difficulty walking, and could not speak. We mostly sat on the floor for our music lessons and Vanessa liked to sit on my lap. One of her favorite songs was John the Rabbit.

30、ating phrase, “Oh, yes!” Vanessa liked to put her hands together with mine and clap with me. We performed that song during every class, Vanessa and I clapping together. She never said or sang a word.One day late in the school year, when the song was finished, Vanessa turned around, looked me in the

31、eye, clapped her tiny hands two times and said the words “Oh, yes!” I opened my mouth and for that moment I was the one who could not speak.

32、ck with a big smile on her face and then clapped her hands two times, mimicking (模仿) the song we had performed in our music class.

37、d, sometimes right alongside much older pieces of Land Art created by people who lived thousands of years ago.Land art, which is not necessarily unchangeable, can take a number of forms. For example, in 1970 Robert Smithson created the Spiral Jetty (螺旋码头), made of a collection of stones and mud, in

38、the Great Salt Lake. The American artist made a large jetty in a spiral shape which sticks out into the waters of the lake.Reshaping the landscape is a common characteristic of Land Art.

39、salt, which is added to the Spiral Jetty. It is possible to use plants. In all cases, Land Art is immovable.Land Art is designed to gradually form, change, and eventually decay (衰落).

45、 the activities you might try. Take care of yourselfYou should make every effort to eat well and get enough rest.
