His first connection(关联)with paintings came in 1869He worked for an art dealer（经营者）in London and Paris for four years, before he became a teacher in England for a short time. He moved back to France in 1877 and soon began to paint. He didnt stay long in Paris. He was attracted（吸引）by the c010urs of the countryside and, in 1883, he moved to Ales, a small town in the south of France. There, he painted his most famous paintings. He enjoyed painting people, farms, flowers, and other natural things. Some of his most famous paintings are The Potato Eaters, The Starry Night, and some different sun flower paintingsThe Starry Night is now kept in the Museum of Modern Art in New YorkThere is a quiet Vi11age and a tall black tree under an angry sky. Some people say that it shows a war（战争）in Van Goghs mind between peace（和平）and angerIt was finished on June 19th， 1889.Scientists say that it is a true picture of the stars on that day. He was poor most of his life. He made hundreds of paintings, but only sold one of them while he lived. He was a lonely, unhappy man and died at the early age of 37.

This is very much like different greetings in English at different times of the day or night. In Japanese culture, it also depends on whether（是否）you are on the phone or you are close to the person you are greeting. We dont get formal（正式）with our friends. We seldom greet them with "Good morning" or "Good evening". A "Hi" is enough. The most popular and most well-known translation for "Hello" is still "Konnichiwa", but it is not exactly how to say hello in Japanese. Perhaps it is not the most suitable word for it. Actually, the correct greeting in English for "Konnichiwa" is "Good day" or "Good noon", and I am sure you wouldnt like greeting people with a "Good day" at any time, and Japanese also dont like to say "Konnichiwa" when they want to say "Hello". Then what to do? Lets do it the way the Japanese do. Use "Ohaiyo Gonzaimasu" when its noon and "Konbanwa" to greet somebody in the afternoon. Things are different when you are on the phone. Just say "Moshi, Moshi", which is actually similar (相似) to saying "Hello" over the phone, because one doesnt often use "Good morning" or 66Good afternoon" or "Good evening" right after picking up the phone. One invariably uses the sweet old "Hello". Next time, Ill tell you something about my life in Japan.9. How do Japanese people greet each other in the afternoon? A. By saying "Konbanwa". B. By saying "Moshi, Moshi". C. By saying "Konnichiwa". D. By saying "Ohaiyo Gonzaimasu".10. Which of the following is true according to the writer? A. Japanese people are not very friendly to each other. B. Japanese culture is similar to American culture. C. Japanese people dont like using "Konnichiwa" as a greeting for the whole day. D. People dont need to be polite to their close friends.11. The underlined word "invariably" may mean_. A. likely B. maybe C. always D. sometimes12. From the passage we know that the writer A. is from Britain B. lived in Japan for some time C. is working in a radio station now D. knows both Chinese and Japanese13.

This spring, I chose Yangzhou to be my first stop on a 16-month trip around China. It was like love at first sight. At 15, I bought a book that was a collection of poems of the Tang Dynasty.

What a shame I simply could only afford half a day!My next stop was He Garden, one of the best protected gardens in Yangzhou. It was once owned by the family of He Zhidao during the Qing Dynasty. He Zhidao successfully brought Chinese and Westernarchitectural (建筑的) features together.Yangzhou is also the starting point of the Grand Canal tour.
