Welcome to the four winds historical farm,where traditions of the past preserved for visitors like you.Today out master[b] [color=dimgray](th____)[/color][color=red]thatches茅草盖的,浓密的[/color][/b] will begin giving this [b]bar[color=red]n谷仓[/color][/b] behind me a sturty [b][color=dimgray](tha___)[/color][color=red]thatched茅草盖的,浓密的[/color][/b] roof able to withstand heavy winds and last up to handred years.How didi they do it?Well,in a[b] [color=purple]nutshell小东西,小容器。坚硬的果壳[/color][color=dimgray],(th___)[/color][color=red]thatcheing茅草盖的,浓密的[/color][/b] invovled covering the beams or[color=dimgray] [b](raphers)[/b][/color][b][color=red]rafters椽[/color],[color=purple]应该就是房梁那个横着的主要的木头吧。。[/color][/b]the skeleton of the roof,with [b][color=purple]reeds芦苇,茅草[/color] or [color=purple]straw稻草,麦杆[/color].Our [color=dimgray](th___)[/color][color=red]thathches茅草盖的,浓密的[/color][/b] here have harvested their own natural materials for the job,the bundles of water reeds,you see lying over there beside the bar[color=red]n谷仓[/color].ZO!wO#d1^I.\x'y|(U

Thathcing is certainly uncommon in the United States today.I guess that's why [b][color=dimgray](some)[/color][color=red]so many连读!!![/color][/b] of you have come to see this demostration.But it wasn't alwayes that way.In the 17th century,the colonies here thatched their roofs with reeds and straws,just as they had done in England.After a while [b][color=dimgray](that)[/color][color=red]though[/color][/b],they began to replace the thatch with wooden and [color=red][b]shingles屋顶板,木瓦[/b][/color] because wood was so plentiful.And [color=black]eve[color=red][b]n[/b][/color]tually other roofing materils like stone,[b][color=red]slate板岩[/color][/b],and [b][color=dimgray]([/color][color=dimgray]clake)[/color][color=red]clay黏土[/color][/b] tiles came into use.[/color]

It's a real shme that most people today don't realized how strong and long lasting a thathed roof is.In Ireland,which thathching is still practiced,the roof can survive winds of [color=red][b]up to[/b][/color] one hundred [color=red][b]ten[/b][/color] mile per hour.That's because straws and reeds are very[color=dimgray] [b](slexible)[/b][/color][color=red][b]flexible可弯曲的,柔韧性好的[/b][/color].It bend and don't break in the wind like other materials can.Another advantages is that the roofs keep the house cool in th summer and warm in the winter.And then of course,there's the roofs[color=dimgray] [b](agenety)[/b][/color][color=red][b]longgevity寿命[/b][/color].The average is 60 years but they can last up to a hundred.With all these reasons to start thatching roofs again,wouldn't is be wonderful to see this disappearing craft returned to popularity?

这篇是昨天听写的,因为网速抽风,我就用纸和笔写的,明显用得时间比较长,到不是因为没打,而是里面不会的词太多了,而且是对于我比较生僻的词,加上看到穗穗说要一句一句听完整,确实多花了不少时间.好在除了不会词的部分比较痛苦,别的还都算是简单.uwP8Yj*~ B

you may remembered a few weeks ago we discussed the question of what photography is.Is it art? Or it's a [color=blue][b]method of reproducing images[/b][/color]?Do photographs belong in museums or just in our house?Today I want to talk about a person who tried to [b]make his professinal life an answer to such questions[/b].1a
Gs(qD
:_cq}0Yo}
Alfred St/.. went form United States to Germany to study engineering.While he was there,he became interested in photography and began to experiement whith his camera.He took pictures[color=red][b] [color=dimgray](on)[/color]under[/b][/color] the conditions that most photographers considered[color=dimgray][b] (is)[/b][/color] too difficult.He took them at night,in the rain,and of people and object relected in [b][color=dimgray](the)[/color][/b] windows.[b][u]When he returend to the United States he continued these revolutionary efforts.St/.. was the first person to photograph [color=red][color=dimgray](skysc..)[/color]skyscrapers摩天楼,三角天帆[/color],clouds and views from an airplane[/u][/b].
6n
Z w-_s
f@
@6Y
Dx A,~
What St/.. was trying to do in these photographs was what he tried to do throughout his life.Make photography an art.He felt that photography could be just as beautiful a form of self-expression as painting and drawing.For St/.., [color=blue][b]his camera was his brush[/b][/color].While many photographers of the late 1800s and early 1900s thought of their work as [b][color=blue]reproduction of indetical images[/color][/b].St/.. saw his as a creative art form.He undersood the power of the camera to capture the moment.In fact, he never retouched his prints or made copies of them.If he were in this classroom today,I'm sure he'd say,painters don't normally make extra copies of their paintings,do they?M%IJ&Cjtz9Ia1|
/~OT:M9HYY
So,uh,as Jim said,James polk was the 11th president,and uh,well my report's about the next president,Z..Taylor.
m;x \H`:iN3Pg"T
beh#@@/H9T5gG!C;L4|)F
Taylor wew [b][color=blue](___)elected[/color][/b] in 1849.It's surprising because well he was the first [b][color=blue]president that didn't have any[/color] [color=purple](漏聽了previous先前的[/color])[/b]political experience.The main reason he was chosen as a candidates was because he was a war hero.+\WB0Z)BGT}
eciV:Cwbq
%B;Ps)yv+?
In the army,his men called him Old rough and ready.I guess because of his rough edges.He was kind of[b][color=red] ([color=dimgray]blood)[/color]blunt[/color][/b] and he didn't really look like a military hero.He liked to do things like wear [color=red][b][color=dimgray](clivian)[/color]civilian clothes [color=dimgray](and)[/color]instead[/b][/color] of a uniform,even in battle.And he was so short and plump he had to be lifted up onto his horse.But he did win a lot of battles and he became more and more popular.So the (wing)Whig party decided to nominate him for the presidency,even though no one knew anything about where he stood on issues.
S5M
G$n9vN p
0Cv5u u*r2}_
T5Gx)w1^)|I
I couldn't find much about his accomplishments.Probably because he was only in office about a year and a half before he died.But on thing,he pushed for the development of the [color=dimgray](transconcial)[/color][b][color=red]transcontinental横贯大陆的,穿越大陆的,在大陆另一边的 railroad[/color][/b] because the thought it was important to [color=dimgray]([/color][b][color=dimgray]formal?)[/color][color=red]form a link連讀...... [/b][/color]whith the west coast.There was a lot of wealth in California and[b][color=red] [color=dimgray](Or..)[/color]Oregon[/color][/b] from [color=blue][b]commerce and minerals and stuff[/b][/color].Also,he established [color=blue][b]an agricultural[/b][/color][color=dimgray] ([/color][b][color=dimgray]br__)[/color][color=red]bureau办事处 in the department[/b][/color] of the interior and promoted more government aid to agriculture[/size]

Wood was born in 1881 in Iowa farm country,and became interested in art very early in life.Although he studeied art in both in Minn.... and at the Art Institte of Chicago,the strongest influences on his art were European.He spent time in both Germany and France and his study there helped shape his own stylized form of realism.0Q)J*]s(B6{5Gx
5t!~ QiZ"K4y+z@1x
Whe he returend to Iowa,[b][u]Wood applied the stylistic realism he had learned in Europe to the rural life he saw around him and that he remembered from his childhood around the turn of the century.[/u][/b]His portraits of farm [b][u]families imitate the [color=blue]static靜止的固定的[/color] [color=dimgray](forma..)[/color] [color=red]formalism形式主義[/color] of photographs[/u][/b] of early settlers posed in front of their homes.His paintings of farmers at work,and of their tools and animials,emonstrate a serious respect for the life of the midwest United States.By the 1930s,wood was a leading figre of the school of art called American regionalism.

In an effort to sustain a strong midwestern artistic movement.Wood established an institute of midwestern art in his home state.Although the institute failed,the paintings you are [b][u]about see [color=dimgray](previous)[/color] [color=red]preserve保存保戶[/color] woods[/u][/b] vision of pioneer farmers.
