Many artists late in the last century were in search of a means to express their individuality(个性). Modern dance was one of the ways some of these people sought to free their creative spirit. At the beginning there was no exact technique or no foundation from which to build. In later years, trial, error and genius founded the techniques and the principles of the movement. Eventually, innovators even learned from ballet, but first they had to abandon 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 saw it accepted.
Her search for a natural movement form sent her to nature. She believed movement should be as natural as the swaying(摇摆) of the tree 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 movements 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(精湛技巧) shown by complicated positions and movements. Duncan performed dance by using all her body in the freest possible way. Her dance came from her heart and soul. She was one of the pioneers who broke tradition so others might be able to develop the art.
Her second contribution lies in dance costumes. She gave up corsets(紧身衣), ballet shoes and still costumes. These were replaced with long loose dresses, bare feet, and unbound hair. She believed in the natural body being allowed to move freely, and her dress displayed this idea.
Her third contribution ____________. In her performance she used the symphonies of great masters, including Beethoven and Wagner, which was not the usual custom.
She was as exciting and eccentric(古怪的) in her personal life as in her dance.

If it takes Kate twenty seconds to add 12 and 26, while Terry can do the sum in a quarter the time on his pocket calculator, how much better grades will Terry get than Kate in the maths exam?
Pocket calculators are as cheap to buy as a pair of shoes, and as essential to thousands of school children as a pencil and eraser. Schools have tried to limit their use, by allowing them in science lessons, to save time but by not allowing them to be used in maths classes. When children do their homework, a pocket calculator is a must. Nowadays in Britain, calculators can be used freely in school examinations, and already in many schools the only sound to be heard during a mathematics examination is the sound of children tapping out their answers.
Many parents feel that their children are not being given a basic understanding of the facts of maths. “The process of addition, division, subtraction and multiplication is part of a training in logic which is important for every child. It teaches them to take series of steps necessary in coming to a conclusion,” says a local maths teacher. “ With a calculator, the child can reach the right answer, but have no idea at all how he got there.” Another teacher in the same school disagreed. “Of course the children understand the principles(基本原理) behind what they do on the calculator. It makes no difference to the mental processes they go through, except to make them much faster, and less boring.” “It’s far easier to teach them to completely understand the idea of division and multiplication by making them understand which button they need to push than to talk about apples being cut in pieces,” said another teacher, who uses calculators to keep the interest of his class.
In any case, the pocket calculator is here to stay; it’s taking the stress out of mental labor in all sorts of ways.
