[江苏淮阴中学2020高二期末]Art-no matter whether you choose to create it yourself or simply observe and enjoy it-is a relaxing and inspiring activity for many people. However,the particular benefits of artistic expression go much further.
Studies suggest that art therapy(疗法)can be very valuable in treating issues such as depression and anxiety disorder. It is a great way to express your emotions without words,process complex feelings and find relief.
You don't necessarily have to see a therapist in order to experience some of the benefits of artistic expression. There are many simple activities you can try from the comfort of your home such as reading art journals,drawing,making collections,sculpting with clay,etc. It doesn't matter which medium you choose. The only thing that matters is that you feel comfortable using it. Human beings are naturally creative,and all you need to do to complete an art therapy activity successfully is be with yourself and your emotions. Once you free your creativity,your inner artist will quickly wake up.
However,working with a licenced therapist also has its advantage because a professional can tailor each activity to meet your own needs. If the activities are done in a group, they are excellent for building healthy connections with other people, which may be very helpful if you are fighting depression.
Experts agree that art therapy has many benefits, from promoting your self-respect and providing you a safe outlet to relieve your emotions, to giving you a sense of control over your life and helping you to get to know and understand yourself better. During the process of art creation, you will be taking yourself on a journey of self-discovery that will help you get rid of emotional roadblocks and learn how to communicate with yourself and others.

How the Arts Contribute to Our Economy When it comes to the arts,most people tend to imagine the end product-beautiful paintings,wonderful pieces of music,or award-winning performances in the theatre. But art groups bring broader value to communities. 1
The arts create jobs that help develop the economy. Any given performance takes a tour bus full of artists,technical experts,managers,musicians and writers to create an appealing piece of art. 2 Another group of folks is needed to help market the event. Digital media experts,photographers,booking agents and promoters(承办者)are hired to sell tickets and promote the event.
3 Here is an example. In 2005,when the Bishop Arts Theatre Center was donated to a town in Dallas, the place was considered a poor area. After putting more than $1 million in reconstructing the building, they began producing a full season of theatre performances, jazz concerts, and year-round art education programmes. Soon, waves of jazz lovers flooded in to enjoy an evening. Then came a series of workforce outside the art industry, including accountants, marketers, hotel managers, printers, and other kinds of workers. 4
Definitely, the arts are efficient economic drivers when supported. It's wrong to have prejudice against majors in art and assume art groups cannot make a profit. But to stay in business, art groups must produce returns. 5 But those who truly understand the economic effect and can work to change the patterns can create a wide range of career possibilities.
A. Here are some tips on how to achieve profits in the arts.
B. Here are some ways in which the arts benefit our economy.
C.A successful art neighbourhood creates a chain effect throughout a community.
D. These people earn a living for their professional knowledge and skills.
E. No doubt the theatre has contributed to the area's development and economic growth.
F. To be a major in the arts, you need to have an understanding of the brilliant potential of your choice.
G. If you are a student considering taking up the arts, the chances are you have been ill-advised to have a plan B.

2.as句意为:许多人都认为,该操作系统不仅象征着中国作为科技大国的崛起,更是通过把该系统命名为中文“鸿蒙”来向中华古典文化致敬。“科技大国”表示的是中国的身份,所以应填介词as,意为“作为”。故填as。
