art class of sculpture , the school is planning to downsize the class size from 30 to 15, due to two reasons, the first one is that too many students may not get the attention from teacher as when it was of a smaller size, and 交流 is crutial to art class. the second reason is that it is too expensive to buy the materials(不记得啥了) for so many studerts.
女生观点：完全不同意，sculpture is so important for students of arts that they would like to choose the class even if not paid so much attention from the teacher, the new regulation will 剥夺很多art student’s previlige to choose the class they want. Secondly, the art students would pay for the materials themself, just to get the chance to attend the class.
学校要减少一个art 什么的课的人数，理由是 人太多造成教授的attentive受到影响，另一个就是费用比较高。一男一女两个同学讨论，男问女的看法，女同学说很不开心，这个课很重要，less attentive is better than do not have any class at all，对于花费高她说这个也不是个好理由，这课真的很重要，所以即使要掏钱学，很多人会pay for it. 复述女孩的态度

：Progress explanation means somebody tells sb else how to do some work. Progress explanation有两类：1、directive explanation。teach people how to carry out a project step by step. with instruction 2、informational explanation。just tell people a general idea about it ,without instruction, people are not told how to finish the task themselves.
：the professor use two examples to illustrate two types: 1、he bought a cell phone recently，但不会put the telephone number into cell phone. His friend taught him how to enter the name and phone number step by step,for example, first input a number then a name . but one night the prof saw on Tv a program , says how signal is transmitted from one cellphone to another when dialed, by atenas and satellites, but it didn’t tell how to use the phone, so the prof didn’t know how to use the phone even after watching the program
question: how does the prof illustrate the definition of progress explanation using examples?
两种process，一种directive,还有一个informational，文章解释了这两个概念。教授说自己昨天买了个新手机，不知道怎么输号码，然后一个朋友走进来教他使用，然后他就能自己用了。然后说那天在电视上看到report，讲手机的原理，什么什么的，但是知道了这些原理也不知道怎么用手机。问题：用教授的例子解释这两个概念。

Task 6
paitings were not perspective which means flat lacking dimensions before the renaissance,
but after the renaissance, several methods were used that helped the paintings look more perspective and realistic, 但是只是作者推测
1.artists began using optical devices such as camera or mirrors, for example, to draw a bow of fruit, they can use mirror to reflect the image on canvas, then trace the lines,最后一句不记得了
2.artists began using special paint oils, which takes more time to dry, the artist could pay more attention to details, which also makes the painting more perspective
question: 文艺复兴后画家们用了哪些办法让油画更立体?
一个艺术史的讲座，基本没听懂，看到题才知道是讲的从文艺复兴到现实主义过渡中的两个理论，一个是用反射什么的，camera什么的，说了一堆我没听懂。还有一个是油画oil painting。画的可以很慢，所以可以有时间描绘细节，什么时候觉得画好了什么时候停。
