Art has always been a vital part of my life. When I was old enough to appreciate genuine fine art, my parents started bringing me to museums that housed works of the greatest artists in the world.
When my art teacher asked us to do a Cubist (立体派的) drawing, my first thought was that she was just joking. I didn't like Cubism. I thought to do so means making fun of the true artists I admired. Unwillingly, I began to find out items for my drawing, I carelessly drew the objects all from different view points. The pictures all looked like a mess of lines and shapes anyway, but I was more concerned with how many more minutes were in the period because I was hungry. Yet, the other part of me was growing quieter. I began to take my task seriously and darken specific lines. I stared at my drawing and determined which ones needed to be emphasized. I was soon shading certain shapes black and they brought out important figures. It must be absolutely perfect.

When I showed her my finished drawing, my teacher looked at me with her huge smile and simply stated, “You are a Cubist.” At that moment the world stopped moving. My cubist drawing was the best piece of art I had ever created, not because I had spent the most time on it but because I had felt it. I thought of how I produced it. Once I felt frustrated, trying to perfect my black lines. Another time I was delighted in breathing life into the drawing by adding color. All of these emotions showed themselves in my work, giving it life that none of my previous works had had. Cubism set me free, showing everything I knew, everything I was, and everything I wished I could be. I had found the missing link, and the world began to move again.

Beginners might think they need to run nearly every day to meet their fitness or weightloss goals, but this couldn't be further from the truth. 4 , especially for beginners whose muscles and bones haven't yet been conditioned for such intense (剧烈的) exercise. So it's important to give your body ample rest between workouts. Follow a training plan that includes rest days.
Comparing yourself to others

【语篇解读】 跑步这项运动对我们身体有很多的益处,但是很多初次跑步者会犯一些错误。文章列举了其中一些错误,以使人们在跑步时尽量避免犯这些错误。
1.解析:选G 根据上文“Given that it's so easy to take up the sport, a lot of beginners jump right into running without actually knowing what it takes to establish a healthy routine.”可知,因为跑步这项运动十分容易,所以很多初次跑步者通常在不知道如何养成一个健康的日常习惯的情况下就开始跑步。下文又说避免以下几个误区以增加跑步成功的机会,因此此处需要填一个承上启下的过渡句。故选G。
