She created almost two hundred dance pieces. She is often called the Mother of Modern Dance. Earlier in her life, however, Martha did not know that she would become a dancer. At that time, the dancers were looked down on. So Marthas parents didnt approve of her desire to dance at the beginning. Until 1916, she began her studies at the newly created Denishawn School of Dancing and Related Arts, founded by Ruth St. Denis and Ted Shawn, where Graham worked very hard to improve her ability to dance because she was considered too old to begin dancing. In 1936, Graham made her defining work “Chronicle”， which signaled the beginning of a new era in modern dance. The dance brought serious issues to the stage for the general public in a dramatic manner. Influenced by the Wall Street Crash of 1929, the Great Depression that followed, and the Spanish Civil War, it focused on depression and isolation, reflected in the dark nature of both the set and costumes. Graham continued to dance past the age of seventy. Once again, she was met with criticism from people who came to watch her shows. But she didnt give up. Her last completed ballet was 1990s Maple Leaf Rag. “A Dancers World” is an introduction to Graham and her work. She tells about her dances and her dance group shows some of their methods. Martha Graham received many awards during her lifetime, including the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1976. She was the first dancer to receive the countrys highest civilian honor. She died in 1991 at the age of ninetysix. In 1998, Time magazine listed her as the “Dancer of the Century” and as one of the most important people of the twentieth century.【语篇解读】本文是一篇人物传记，主要介绍了现代舞之母玛莎格兰姆和她所取得的成就。4.

In order to answer this question，we must first examine whether people really want to preserve the historic feel of an area.Not all historical buildings are attractive.However，there may be other reasonsfor example，economic reasonswhy they should be preserved.So，let us assume that historical buildings are both attractive and important to the majority of people. What should we do then if a new building is needed? In my view，new architectural styles can exist perfectly well alongside an older style.Indeed，there are many examples in my own hometown of Tours where modern designs have been placed very successfully next to old buildings.As long as the building in question is pleasing and does not dominate(影响) its surroundings too much.it often improves the attractiveness of the area.It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt(破坏)the area they are in，but the same can be said of some old buildings too.Yet people still speak against new buildings in historic areas.I think this is simply because people are naturally conservative(保守的)and do not like change.Although we have to respect peoples feelings as fellow users of the buildings，I believe that it is the duty of the architect and planner to move_things_forward.If we always reproduced what was there before，we would all still be living in caves. Thus，I would argue against copying previous architectural styles and choose something fresh and different，even though that might be the more risky choice.【语篇解读】本文是一篇议论文，讨论了现代建筑是否应该和古老的历史建筑建在一起。8.
