3. Topic Presentation 怎么写啊 题目MY FIRST CAR
I am going to talk about my first car. When I first come to this country 6 years ago. I was fresh-of-the-boat with $1000 in my checking account. Obviously I couldn't afford a car. So I saved up my meager RA salaries for the next 5 months until my saving reaches $2000. Meanwhile, I kept looking the classified ads for used cars. Eventually, I found a car that I can afford. Although it was beaten up 1989 Corolla, it was love-at-first-sight for me.
It met all my expectations: it has 4 doors, enough trunk space to put all my sports gears, and it runs smoothly. The mileage was relatively low for a 1989 car, because it only switches hands among college students that drive locally.
But I didn't rush to buy it, instead I took my housemate's advice to sleep over the idea. During that week, I started to compare every car I saw on the street with my target. Every comparison convinced me that the 89 Corolla was the best I can afford. So as always, I negotiated with the seller and wrote a check to get the key.
That day after dinner, I sat into my own car, parked behind my apartment, listening to the cassette player that comes with the car. I thought to myself: now I actually OWN a part of this country. A bigger than life satisfaction immerses me.

But unlike the latter, Matisse produced an oeuvre subservient to a single idea: the search for a balance of colours and forms; by the end of his life, he succeeded in imprinting this upon matter, though, as he himself made plain, it was not without effort.Indeed we learn from Matisse that from the first picture that got him noticed, Luxe, calme et volupté62616964757a686964616fe78988e69d8331333330336338, in 1904, all the way to the chapel at Vence, the simplicity, freshness and the immediately striking brilliance that characterise his work came into being only as a result of much deep thought.In order to reconcile colour with drawing through his gouache-painted cutouts, he had to deploy sculpture and flatness of colour in turn, in other words abstracting colour from design and vice versa, so as to circumscribe their respective potencies.So that "art and decoration" would be "just one and the same thing", he studied architecture and saw how painting can transfigure it. Finally, for painting to become that "art of balance, purity and serenity, with no troubling or disquieting subjects, so that for any mental worker, for example the businessman just as much as the artistic man of letters, it can be a soothing influence on the brain, rather the way a good armchair gives him relaxation from physical tiredness" (as he observed in 1908), Matisse pursued his original intuition through the great currents of art history over half a century: divisionism, fauvism and abstraction - without ever getting lost.He had to travel a great deal too: to Brittany and the south of France, opening himself to Eastern influences on a trip to Morocco, visiting America and Oceania.At the end of this odyssey through colour and ornamentalism, for the artists of the generation that came after him, both in the US and in Europe, Matisse became what André Masson called "the oasis of Matisse"; for the American abstract painters of the Fifties and Sixties, from Rothko to Kelly, from Sam Francis to Robert Motherwell; for Hanta? and Viallat in France in the Sixties - all of whom drew their source of inspiration from the freshness of his ?uvre. 1904Matisse's first exhibition, at the Ambroise Vollard gallery, Paris.1905Luxe, calme et volupté,painted during the previous summer at St-Tropez, is exhibited at the Salon des Indépendants and bought by Signac.
