When people first saw his paintings they were convinced that they were looking through a hole in the wall at a real scene. ( 当人们第一次看到他的画时，还以为是透过墙上的小洞来观察真实的场景，并对此深信不疑。)21·世纪*教育网
该句是一个复合句，when引导一个时间状语从句，主句为they were convinced，且包含一个省略了that的宾语从句。looking后面接了两个介词短语through a hole和at a real scene, in the wall作a hole的后置定语，汉语意为“通过墙上的小洞来观察真实的场景”。
On the one hand, some modern art is abstract; that is, the painter does not attempt to paint objects as we see them with our eyes, but instead concentrates on certain qualities of the object, using colour, line and shape to represent them. (有些现代艺术是抽象的，也就是说，画家并不打算把我们眼睛看到的东西如实地画出来，而是集中展现物体的某些品质特性，用色彩、线条和形状把它们呈现出来。)
本句中的that is可以作that is to say，意为“换句话说”，相当于in other words，用于更清楚地解释刚刚说过的话。解释部分是一个由but连接的并列句：前一个分句包含一个as引导的方式状语从句；后一个分句中的using colour, line and shape为动词-ing形式短语作状语。

Dear Sir,
As we know, we will establish a great museum of the 21st century, building up an “Art Kingdom” of the cyber world, which has a plentiful supply of art and an invaluable collection of works of art. I think we should serve art lovers from all over the world, making their life more prosperous through art.
In order to meet the 2008 Olympic Games, I suggest starting a new gallery to spread our national civilization and improve the Olympic movement. The emblem “Chinese Seal, Dancing Beijing” adopts a special form of traditional Chinese art combining the arts of Chinese characters, seal carving and art of handwriting. Some fine photographs of some famous Olympic athletes also can be collected. Sculpture works will be exhibited and confirmed the great progress that has been made in the creation of Chinese sculpture. One of the sculptures conveys the strenuous effort made by Chinese athletes in global sports competitions in order to bring honor to their homeland. It captures a typical movement of the athlete as she relaxes her hip joints and walks on her heels and toes. 21cnjy.com
So we should mainly show Chinese paintings. In this broad and deep historical river, Chinese calligraphy art reappear this historic evolutional process with its particular artistic form and artistic language seals carving and art of handwriting. People will be pleased with Chinese folk art, such as paper cutting, kites, jade and other stone carvings, wooden toys — these arts with ancient roots in China are still widely practiced, especially among ethnic groups. Embroidery is a traditional Chinese craft, which consists of pulling colored threads through a background material with embroidery needles to stitch colored patterns. All kinds of products about Chinese knots, which is a kind of characteristic folk decoration of handicraft art expressing warmest regards, best wishes and finest ideal. Today, more and more people are fond of it for its characteristic form, colorfulness and profound meaning.
What’s more, the following products can be considered to be shown: the colorful national arts of minor nationalities, especially the condemns, beautiful natural sightseeing and landscape pictures of our motherland, glorious architectural sculptures and the photographs showing the great changes of all professions after joining WTO.
Yours sincerely,.
Ask the students to write a letter to the headmaster of the school asking for permission to improve the environment of the school. Tell them while writing, they can refer to the instruction in
WRITING TASK.
A sample letter:
Dear Mr. Wang,
As you know, our school used to look like a beautiful garden with green trees and many kinds of flowers in our schoolyard all year round. But great changes have taken place since a chemical work was built near our school two years ago. It produces poisonous gases and pours a large amount of waste water into the river. The terrible pollution has done great harm to students and teachers as well as to the surroundings. It’s time for us to do something to protect our school and prevent her from being polluted.
First, we must make great efforts to clean up polluted water and stop further water pollution. Ask the government to maintain and improve present facilities, and construct new project with health, safety, and protection of the environment as primary concerns.
Second, we must insist that water pollution control laws be passed and strictly enforced. This responsibility extends also to members of the general public in our surrounding community. An important aspect of this responsibility is making ongoing programs to protect the community’s air, land and water quality. This is of such importance, that is must be given precedence over operating productivity.
Finally, we can also protect ourselves against polluted water. We should take measures to clean the polluted water. To cooperate with government, industry and academia is supporting research and maximizing benefits for the general public in safety, health and environmental matters.
We hope you will give us a permission to carry out the project and donate 5,000 yuan we need. And we also require you to make a report to ask for the government’s rescue. By doing so, we will be able to live a healthier and happier life.
Yours sincerely,
Liu Wei
