No visit to Pairs is complete without a trip to the Louvre, one of the largest and most famous museums in the world. Inside, there are over 400,000 works of art, such as the painting Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci and the statue David by Michelangelo. It would take nine months to enjoy all the pieces.

COVID19 has changed our lives, and we're under a lot of stress. I agree with the opinion that outdoor activities can reduce stress, because fresh air and sunlight have the largest benefits for our health and mood.
In my opinion, there are many other ways to reduce stress.First, we can listen to some light music.Music can relax our bodies and mind.Then we can read some funny books or enjoy some interesting movies which can make us happy.What's more, talking to our parents or friends is a good way to reduce stress.We can tell them how we feel, and then they will help us.
All in all, we should work together to overcome COVID19.We can overcome it!
