Today many people call Paul Cezanne the Father of Modern Painting.In fact,he sold few pictures and won no prizes.He had to be supported by his father and was also helped by the writer Emile Zola,his boyhood friend.Only in the last ten years of his life was his greatness recognized.
Paul Cezanne was born in AixenProvence,France,on Jan.19,1839.His father,LouisAuguste,was a successful banker.Cezanne received an education at the College Bourbon and studied drawing at the Aix Museum.After studying for a short time at law school and working in his father’s bank,he went to Paris to study painting.Then he often returned to Aix.He worked many summers painting the scenery (景色) near his father’s home away from the center of the city.
During the FrancoPrussian War in 1870,Cezanne fled to L’Estaque,near Marseilles.With him went Hortense Fiquet.In 1872 their son Paul was born.
Cezanne took part in the first exhibition of impressionist (印象派的) paintings in 1874,though he later broke with the impressionists.He was more concerned with structure and color than with the effects produced by light.
Not until Cezanne was about 60 years old did galleries and museums begin to look for his works.Even with his newfound success he still remained unsociable.However,he continued to paint until a week before his death on Oct.22,1906.
Most 20thcentury painters were influenced by Cezanne.He invented a way of modeling threedimensional (三维的) forms by painting in small areas of color.He painted from nature but often changed a shape or its color to express its special effect.His finest works are very calm and peaceful but they are powerful expressions of forms in space.

The Internet plays a big part in human life.We use it for work and pleasure.We use it to learn a new language.We find advice on it.We use it to connect with family and friends.We use it to stay in touch with events we care about.The list goes on and on.
Well,that train has left the station.But can using the Internet too much be bad for our health?It might be,researchers say.A new study finds that heavy Internet use may be connected to high blood pressure (血压) in an unlikely group : teenagers.
High blood pressure makes your heart and blood vessels (血管)work too hard.Over time,this extra pressure increases your risk of a heart attack.High blood pressure can also cause heart and kidney (肾脏)disease.It is also closely linked to a brain disease.
The Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit,Michigan did the study.335 young people,from 14 to 17 years old ,took part in it.134 of the teens were described as “heavy Internet users.”And researchers found that out of these 134 teens,26 had high blood pressure.The researchers say the study is the first to connect heavy web use with high blood pressure.Other research has connected heavy Internet use with anxiety,depression and obesity(肥胖).
The lead researcher is Andrea CassidyBushrow.She said,“Using the Internet is part of our daily life,but it shouldn’t ruin us.” Ms CassidyBushrow adds that it is important for teens to take regular breaks from their computers or smartphones and do some kind of physical activity.She also suggests that parents limit (限制) their children’s use of the Internet to two hours a day,five days a week.
