24th june. i am sorry that you were so badly delayed that day. i would like to apologize for the inconvenience that was undoubtedly caused as a result.as you may know, there were a series of track circuit failures between dronfield and chesterfield yesterday morning. track circuits are a necessary part of the signaling system that helps to track a trains progress through the network and to generate the signaling reports. the faults were found to be the result of the cables stolen from the trackside. unfortunately, due to the scale of the theft and some damage of the trackside equipment caused by its removal, a temporary signaling system was used on this part of the route. while just as effective, it is much slower than the automated（自动化的）electrical system and trains were heavily delayed as a result. however, as a gesture of good will, we would like to give back the cost of the affected part of your train journey (a 50% refund). our minimum compensation (补偿) payment will be 10. once you have returned your ticket to us we will send you a cheque for the relevant amount, which will take up to ten days to process. alternatively, you can fill in the form attached to this letter so that we can transfer the money into your account by bacs. in addition, we would also like to offer you a journey with us in the future. once you have decided when and where you would like to travel, please give us a call on 0121 634 2040 so that we can send you your ticket. you can also let us know by email at customer.responsesco.uk. please provide at least five days notice before you

artists late in the last century were in search of a means to express their individuality. modern dance was one of the ways some of these people sought to free their creative spirit. at the beginning there was no exacting technique, no foundation from which to build. in later years, trial, error and genius founded the techniques and the principles of the movement. eventually, innovators (改革者) even drew from what they considered the dread ballet, but first they had to get rid of all that was academic so that the new could be discovered. the beginnings of modern dance were happening before isadora duncan, but she was the first person to bring the new dance to general audiences and see it accepted and acclaimed (称赞). her search for a natural movement form sent her to nature. she believed movement should be as natural as the swaying of the trees and the rolling waves of the sea, and should be in harmony with the movements of the earth. her great contributions are in three areas. first, she began the expansion of the kinds of movement that could be used in dance. before duncan danced, ballet was the only type of dance performed in concert. in the ballet the feet and legs were emphasized, with virtuosity (高超技巧) shown by complex, codified positions and movements. duncan performed dance by using her body in the freest possible way. her dance stemmed from her soul and spirit. she was one of the pioneers who broke tradition so others might be able to develop the art. her second contribution lies in dance costume. she rejected ballet shoes and stiff costumes. these were replaced with flowing grecian (希腊式的) tunes, bare feet, and unbound hair. she believed in the natural body being allowed to move freely, and her dress displayed this ideal.her third contribution was in the use of music. in her performances she used the symphonies of great masters including beethoven and wagner, which was not the usual custom. she was as exciting and eccentric (怪异) in her personal life as in her dance.9according to the passage, what did nature represent to isadora duncan? asomething to conquer.ba model for movement. ca place to find peace. da symbol of disorder.10compared to those of the ballet, isadora duncans costumes were less _. acostly bcolorfulcgracefuldrestrictive11which of the following is not mentioned as an area of dance that duncan worked to change?a. the stage
