I am a good friend to my husband. I have tried to make marriage vows (誓约) mean what they say. I am a good friend to my

23、friends, and they to me. Without them, there would be nothing to say to you today.So heres what I wanted to tell you today: Get a life. A real life, not a desire of the next promotion (提升), the bigger paycheck, the larger house.Get a life in which you are not alone. Find people you love, and who lov

24、e you. And remember that love is not leisure (休闲), it is work. Pick up the phone. Send an e-mail. Write a letter. And realize that life is the best thing and that you have no business taking it for granted.It is so easy to waste our lives, our days, our hours, and our minutes. It is so easy to exist

25、 instead of to live. I learned to live many years ago.

It is a dream laboratory where researchers are at work studying dreamers. Thei

30、r findings have proved that everyone dreams from three to seven times a night, although in normal life a person may remember none or only one of his dreams. While the subjects usually students sleep, special machines record their brain waves and eye movements as well as the body movements that signa

31、l (信号显示) the end of a dream. Surprisingly, all subjects sleep soundly. Observers report that a person usually fidgets (烦躁不安) before a dream. Once the dream has started, his body relaxes and his eyes become more active, as if the curtain had gone up on a show. As soon as the machine shows that the dr

32、eam is over, a buzzer (电铃声) wakens the sleeper. He sits up, records his dream, and goes back to sleep perhaps to dream some more. Researchers have found that if the dreamer is awoken immediately after his dream, he can usually recall (回忆) the entire dream. If he is allowed to sleep even five more mi

On the one hand, we can all see that great art is old

36、art which is called great. But how do we know which art of our own times is great, and which will be forgotten? And who decides? These are important questions, for the great art of the past often was not considered great during its own time. When Shakespeare and Charles Dickens were writing, for exa

37、mple, most critics considered them as hack (平庸的) writers with little or no literary ability. Similarly, Van Gogh and many of the other Impressionist painters of the late nineteenth century were not allowed to participate in events involving what were thought to be the real painters of the time, and

38、often they were very poor. Yet today their paintings often sell for millions of dollars, while those so-called real painters are now barely remembered. So what makes great art? Can, for example, rock music be great art? Music videos? Cartoons and comics? Those who call themselves critics of the fine

39、 arts often have been the last to recognize great art in the past, and we can probably expect this to be the situation today. Critics often dont recognize great art because they tend to be prejudiced against what is popular. Popular works, whether they are novels, movies, or comics, are usually cons

40、idered to be produced for the sake of money only, and not for the sake of art. But popularity, it seems to me, is one of the three signs that a present-day work of art may come to be thought of as great. The other two are that it is groundbreaking, and that it is inherently (内在的) beautiful. Many wor

41、ks have one or even two of these qualities of being popular, unusual, and beautiful.
