第一篇
科学家发现,努力工作的人要比普通人的寿命长。
有工作的女人要比家庭主妇健康。
有证据表明无业者比有工作的人身体要差。
一项调查显示,当失业率增加1%的时候,死亡率就会增加2%。
所有这些都说明一点,那就是工作有益健康。
为什么工作有益健康呢?
是因为工作让人们变得繁忙,从而远离孤独。
研究表明,当人们无事可做的时候,就会感到不快乐,担忧和孤独。
相反地,最快乐的人就是那些忙碌的人。
那些喜欢他们的工作并取得很高成就的人觉得他们努力工作的时候是最幸福的时候。
工作是连接人类和现实的桥梁。
人们通过工作与他人接触,通过集体活动找到友谊和温暖。
这对健康是有好处的。
没有了工作就意味着没有了一切。
失业影响人的精神状态,从而使人生病。
另外,工作给人一种责任感和成就感。
工作使人感受到自己的价值以及在社会中的地位。
当一个作家完成了他的著作,一个医生成功地对病人做了手术,一个教师看到自己学生的成长,他们的幸福无以言表。
通过上述情况,我们可以得出这样一个结论,那就是,你工作的越多,你就会越幸福,越健康。
第二篇
艺术史的学习可能是学习文化的一个好的方法,因为他比在普通历史课堂上学的要多。
大多数典型的历史课程主要关注政治、经济和战争。
但是艺术史关注的远比这个多,因为艺术不仅反映一个人的政治价值,而且也反映出他的宗教信仰、情绪和心理。
另外,艺术也能够提供我们祖先日常行为的信息。
简而言之,艺术传达了一个时代和一个地区的基本情况,艺术研究提供给我们的理解要比大多数历史书提供给我们的理解要深刻的多。
。
在历史书中,讲述了一个国家政治生活的客观信息;也就是说,只给出了政治事实,但是并没有表达观点。
另一方面,艺术是主观的:
它反映了情绪和观点。
伟大的西班牙画家弗朗西斯科戈雅恐怕是第一个真正地政治艺术家。
在他1808年著名的画作“TheThirdofMay”中,他批评西班牙政府对人们滥用武力。
同样,艺术也可以反映一个文化的宗教信仰。
在欧洲,几百年来,宗教艺术几乎是唯一的艺术形式。
教堂和其他的宗教建筑内充满了描述圣经人物和圣经故事的画作。
尽管人们不能读圣经,但是他们仍旧能够理解教堂墙壁上图画描述的圣经故事。
于此相对照的是,中东地区艺术的主要特征是人类和动物形象出现在艺术中。
这反映了伊斯兰信仰中雕像不是神圣的。
第三篇
盲人可以用身体的其他部位来“看”东西。
这种事实可以帮助我们理解我们关于颜色的感觉。
如果盲人能够感知颜色的不同,那么我们可能也无意识地
