It’s not what you look at that matters;it's what you see.

——Henry David Thoreau

Slow Art Day is a global event with a simple mission: help more people discover for themselves the joy of looking at and loving art.

Why slow?

When people look slowly at a piece of art, they make discoveries. The most important discovery they make is that they can see and experience art without an expert. And that's an exciting discovery. It unlocks passion and creativity and helps to create more art lovers.

How does it work?

One day each year, people all over the world visit local museums and galleries to look at art slowly. Participants look at five works of art for 10 minutes each and then meet together over lunch to talk about their experience. That's it. Simple by design, the goal is to focus on the art. In fact, Slow Art Day works quite well this way.

By the numbers

Over l, 200 individual Slow Art Day events have taken place since its official launch in 2010. Slow Art Day events have taken place on all seven continents.

700 venues (museums, galleries, artist studios, sculpture parks, public art sites. etc.) have hosted Slow Art Day events.

Participants love Slow Art Day

Feedback on this simple event has been overwhelmingly positive. Here's a sample:

“I loved taking the time to just 'be' with the works, particularly pieces I might otherwise walk by. It's a much better way of doing the art museum than the usual idle ramble. Discussion afterwards was fun, interesting, informative and eye-opening. I look forward to doing it again."

Slow Art Day 2017 is Saturday, April 8, in museums and galleries worldwide. Join us and experience art differently.

1.The author quotes Thoreau's words at the beginning to ________.

Dear Lan Lan ，

I’m now writing to you at Hartsop，a village in the Lake District，a place to have most beautiful scenery(景色) in England，I come here to spend Christmas with an English couple. This was planned for overseas students to know the British ways of life by living with British families.

We came two days before Christmas and during our stay，we have had everything we expected：Christmas turkey，Christmas cake，Christmas puddings，Christmas parties and gifts under the Christmas tree. All are exciting and amusing(有趣的)，but above all these，we are deeply touched by the hospitality(好客) of the family，Roger and Anne Marie.

Anne Marie is a nurse and all these days，she had been busy cooking meals，washing dishes and showing us around. Roger，who is a doctor，knows a lot about China and still wants to know more. He plays us Chinese music and it seems to me he does better in that than we do. In the evenings，we all sit around the fireplace with Tim，a lovely dog，by our side. Like long? time ?no ?see friends，we talk about all the things that have happened or we hope to happen in our lives. There is always so much to tell and to know.

After three months away from home，we are again feeling how sweet a home can be. Roger and Anne Marie are not like most of the other people we have met who always make us feel we are foreigners in a foreign country. They show such kindness to us that they bring us a person?to?person feeling，instead of a British?to?Chinese feeling. They make us believe that though there are differences of languages and cultures，one may always expect to find in every corner of the world the feeling of love and being loved.

How I wish Mum and Dad could meet them! How I wish you were here with me! How strange it is that the more I feel at home here，the more I miss my real home and all of you. We always talk about“when we go back home next year...”and soon we will turn this into“when we go back home THIS year...”for the New Year’s Day is coming. Miss you.

Love，

Gao Wen

A few things to do during weekends

to improve your life

Weekend at last! Something you’re so looking forward to after a tiring week at work. Here are several tips on how to make the most of your weekends.

Spend time with loved ones. Reconnect with family members or friends you neglected(疏忽) lately. Don’t do it out of guilt or because you have to. Do it because you want to. Reach out to them to see how they are doing. 1. Return their calls if you were busy when they last tried to reach you. Talk to them. Listen to them. Be there for them.

2. Stay away from TV, iPad, iPhone and any other electronic devices. Unplug! Your brain needs to clear up from all the stress you’ve put on yourself during the week. Why not read a book instead? A paper one. Seriously, when was the last time you did that?

Laugh, laugh and laugh again. You can never have enough of it. Laugh is the best medicine ever. 3. For example, it helps you manage stress, strengthen your immune system and you are 40 percent less likely to suffer a heart attack.

Express appreciation. 4. Be grateful for your family, friends, health, the food you put on the table, the clothes you wear and the air that you breathe.

There you are. Doing a few things during weekends will have a positive long-term effect on your life. 5. .

A. Apply the “no technology” rule.

B. Pause and pay attention to your thoughts.

C. Friendship is the best source of happiness.

D. Don’t call them only when you need them.

E. Put them into practice and you’ll beat the Monday Blues.

F. It benefits your mental and physical health in so many ways.

G. This is something you should be doing every day, not only on weekends.

The reality is not beautiful as we thought. If you choose only to complain and escape, it will always follow you wherever you go. But if you decide to be strong, the1. (hard) will turn out to be a fortune on 2. new hopes will arise. For me, small dose of hope is enough.

When I was in my first year in my high school, I hit a stretch where every area of my life was a disaster. I felt hopeless and alone, and more 3. ( depress) than I knew was possible. I have no idea about my future.

One day, I was walking from class across campus to catch my bus home head down, fighting tears of total despair, 4. an old man came down the sidewalk toward me. Embarrassed at5. (see) such an emotional mess, I turned my head away and hoped to hurry past. I felt he’d walk on by,6. he moved until he was directly in front of me. That time, I thought he was a strange man who got on 7. (I) nerves. But, to my surprise, I looked up and found him smiling. Looking into my eyes, this stranger spoke8. a quiet voice, “What is wrong will pass. You are going to be ok, just hang on” He then, smiled again and 9. (walk) away.
