		<description>My favorite artist is Marc Chagall. I was eighteen years old when I first &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;&lt;del datetime=&quot;2010-07-03T17:52:58+00:00&quot;&gt;time&lt;/del&gt;&lt;/span&gt; saw his exposition which took place &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;in&lt;/span&gt; The Museum of Contemporary Art in London. The &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;show&lt;/span&gt; was not spacious&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;.&lt;/span&gt; There were just two rooms &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;with&lt;/span&gt; the paintings belonging to the series called “Lovers”. But &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;these artworks&lt;/span&gt; impressed me so &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;greatly&lt;/span&gt; that I could not leave the &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;show&lt;/span&gt; for a couple of hours. The feelings that I had looking at Chagall’s paintings were remarkably &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;strong&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffa500&quot;&gt;lexical development&lt;/span&gt;. I was dissolving in a world of odd figures and deep glowing colors &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;of&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #00ff00&quot;&gt;within&lt;/span&gt; his masterpieces. I still wonder how &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;with so little&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffa500&quot;&gt;syntax&lt;/span&gt; he managed to express so much! &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;There is&lt;/span&gt; extremely simple content, generally, two figures or two faces (male and female), depicted in a rather &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;plane&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffa500&quot;&gt;plain?&lt;/span&gt;, “primitive” way, which is considerably far from the classical, academic manner of painting people. The objects and scenery in Chagall’s paintings disobey the rules of perspective and are normally unproportional. But the feelings and sensations &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;that the artwork of&lt;/span&gt; Marc Chagall evokes in me are immensely rich and deep. The imagery seems to have a direct access to my subconsciousness. 
After such a memorable first encounter with the art of Chagall, I started to search for more information about this prominent artist and his creative work. I &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;have&lt;/span&gt; visited a number of Chagall’s exhibitions &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;since&lt;/span&gt; that time. Several of &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;the greatest pieces of&lt;/span&gt; the artist belong to the state museums of Moscow and St. Petersburg. 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #00ff00&quot;&gt;rethink positioning&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
Mark Chagall was born in a small Russian town named Vitebsk &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;in 1887&lt;/span&gt;. &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;His family was Jewish,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffa500&quot;&gt;background&lt;/span&gt; like the majority of the population of Marc’s hometown. During &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #00ffff&quot;&gt;definite article needed&lt;/span&gt; late &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;tsar’s&lt;/span&gt; period of Russian history, Jews &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;were&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffa500&quot;&gt;change to active voice&lt;/span&gt; the discriminated ethnic minority, which implied a number of limitations including residential areas. For instance, in order to travel to St. Petersburg, the dream of the young artist, Marc Chagall had to get special permission from the government, which only specific craftsmen could obtain. Thereby &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;nineteen years old&lt;/span&gt; Chagall arrived to the capital of the Russian Empire as a sign painter. He had been making signs for bakeries, grocery stores, and the &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;entire&lt;/span&gt; markets while taking classes in art school. 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #00ff00&quot;&gt;Don&#039;t leave me hanging.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>My favorite artist is Marc Chagall. I was eighteen years old when I first time saw his exposition which took place in The Museum of Contemporary Art in London. The show wasn&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;’&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffa500&quot;&gt;avoid contractions&lt;/span&gt;t &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;big&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffa500&quot;&gt;lexical development&lt;/span&gt;. There were just two rooms with the paintings belong&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;ed&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffa500&quot;&gt;present participle usage&lt;/span&gt; to the series called “Lovers”. But these artworks impressed me &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;so much&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffa500&quot;&gt;lexical development&lt;/span&gt; that I could not leave the show for a couple of hours.

		<description>I believe I was fourteen years old when the following dramatic episode happened. I had a cat and she gave birth to four kittens. At that time&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #00ffff&quot;&gt;punctuation&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffa500&quot;&gt;comma usage&lt;/span&gt; no one neutered pets in Russia, so &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;it&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffa500&quot;&gt;paraphrase&lt;/span&gt; was quite normal to have your cat pregnant from time to time and get rid of the kittens right after their birth. Usually&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #00ffff&quot;&gt;punctuation&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffa500&quot;&gt;comma usage&lt;/span&gt; men in the family were in charge of this secret elimination. But this time my father was traveling and my mother and me decided that we were going to keep the kittens.

		<description>My favorite artist is Marc Chagall. I was &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;18&lt;/span&gt; years old when I first time saw his exposition. &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;It&lt;/span&gt; was in The Museum of Contemporary Art in London. &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;It&lt;/span&gt; wasn’t a big show&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;,&lt;/span&gt; there were just two rooms with the paintings belon&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;g&lt;/span&gt; to the series&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;,&lt;/span&gt; called “Lovers”. But &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;it&lt;/span&gt; impressed me so much that I could not leave &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;it&lt;/span&gt; for &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #00ffff&quot;&gt;indefinite article&lt;/span&gt; couple of hours. The feelings that I had looking at Chagall’s paintings were so strong&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;,&lt;/span&gt; that I even stopped thinking&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;,&lt;/span&gt; I was dissolving in &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;the&lt;/span&gt; world of odd figures and deep glowing colors of his masterpieces. I still wonder how with so little he &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;was&lt;/span&gt; manag&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;e&lt;/span&gt; to express so much! If you ever saw his paintings from this particular series, you would understand what I’m talking about. There is very simple content – usually two figures or two faces (male and female), depicted in a &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;very&lt;/span&gt; plane, “primitive” way, which is quite far from &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #00ffff&quot;&gt;article needed&lt;/span&gt; classical, academic way of painting people. The objects and scenery in Chagall’s paintings &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;are&lt;/span&gt; not obey&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;ing&lt;/span&gt; the rules of perspective and &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #00ffff&quot;&gt;verb needed&lt;/span&gt; usually unproportional. But the feelings and sensations that &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;these&lt;/span&gt; artworks evoke in me are so rich and deep, that &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;it&lt;/span&gt;’s hard to find a logical explanation &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;to it&lt;/span&gt;. &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;It&lt;/span&gt;’s like his imagery has &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;the&lt;/span&gt; direct access to my unconsciousness.</description>

There is very simple content – usually two figures or two faces (male and female), depicted in a <span style="color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00">very</span> plane, “primitive” way, which is quite far from <span style="color: #000000; background-color: #00ffff">article needed</span> classical, academic way of painting people. The objects and scenery in Chagall’s paintings <span style="color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00">are</span> not obey<span style="color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00">ing</span> the rules of perspective and <span style="color: #000000; background-color: #00ffff">verb needed</span> usually unproportional. But the feelings and sensations that <span style="color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00">these</span> artworks evoke in me are so rich and deep, that <span style="color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00">it</span>’s hard to find a logical explanation <span style="color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00">to it</span>. <span style="color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00">It</span>’s like his imagery has <span style="color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00">the</span> direct access to my unconsciousness.</p>

		<description>I &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;think&lt;/span&gt; I was fourteen years old when &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;it&lt;/span&gt; happened. I had a cat and she gave birth to four kittens. At that time&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #00ffff&quot;&gt;punctuation&lt;/span&gt; no one neutered pets in Russia, so it was quite normal to have your cat pregnant from time to time and &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;got&lt;/span&gt; rid of &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #00ffff&quot;&gt;definite article&lt;/span&gt; kittens right after their birth. Usually men in the family were in charge of &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;it&lt;/span&gt; and they were doing &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;it&lt;/span&gt; secretly.  But this time my father was traveling and my mother and me decided that we&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;’re&lt;/span&gt; going to keep the kittens. Unfortunately&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #00ffff&quot;&gt;punctuation&lt;/span&gt; my cat didn’t have milk to feed her babies and right after she gave birth she left them. I still can’t understand why &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;did it&lt;/span&gt; happe&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;n&lt;/span&gt;, but her mother’s instinct didn’t work. I was trying to feed them, but the only milk I could find was conserved milk (which they could not digest), because &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;it&lt;/span&gt; was wintertime and we were living in Siberia. My kittens were so tiny and defenseless and they were crying from hunger. My heart was breaking from pity, I could not help them. &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;It&lt;/span&gt; was like a nightmare&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;,&lt;/span&gt; they were slowly dying. After I found out that my classmate had a cat, which had kittens two months earlier, I brought the last kitten to her place hoping that the cat would feed him – &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;it&lt;/span&gt; didn’t work. I still feel so much pain when I’m thinking about &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;this&lt;/span&gt;.</description>

		<description>I used to cry&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;ing&lt;/span&gt; when I talked about my saddest moment but it happened &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;on&lt;/span&gt; the past so I don&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;’&lt;/span&gt;t have to cry&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;ing&lt;/span&gt; anymore. Well, when I was a child my parents were planning to get divorced &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;&lt;del datetime=&quot;2010-05-25T05:21:26+00:00&quot;&gt;you know the reasons&lt;/del&gt;&lt;/span&gt; because my father cheated &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;to&lt;/span&gt; my mom. My parents didn&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;’&lt;/span&gt;t live together&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;,&lt;/span&gt; sometimes m&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;i&lt;/span&gt; father went to visit us, but he didn&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;’&lt;/span&gt;t visit us frequently.

I remember it was my sister&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;’&lt;/span&gt;s birthday and my father went to the party, which my mother organized &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;to&lt;/span&gt; her. We were having a good time but suddenly the lover of my father arrived to the house. And all my uncles started to scream and they told her&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;,&lt;/span&gt; g&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;o&lt;/span&gt;t out of my house. My sister started to cry and my mother g&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;ets&lt;/span&gt; very angry&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;,&lt;/span&gt; I was w&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;hit&lt;/span&gt; my uncle and I w&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;ere&lt;/span&gt; crying too. I can&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;´&lt;/span&gt;t forget that moment&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;&lt;del datetime=&quot;2010-05-25T05:21:26+00:00&quot;&gt;,&lt;/del&gt;&lt;/span&gt; and I remember what she was wearing.</description>

		<description>When I talk&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;ing&lt;/span&gt; about my happiest moment, I have many funny memories. One of th&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;at&lt;/span&gt; moments is when I was w&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;hit&lt;/span&gt; my friend playing basketball, and suddenly one of my friends hit a child &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;how&lt;/span&gt; was near to her&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;,&lt;/span&gt; It was funny&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;,&lt;/span&gt; because the boy went to his mother and told her what had happened. The boy was crying because by friend hit him in the head w&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;hit&lt;/span&gt; the ball.  And his mother very angr&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;y&lt;/span&gt; asked &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;&lt;del datetime=&quot;2010-05-25T05:32:58+00:00&quot;&gt;to&lt;/del&gt;&lt;/span&gt; my friend what had happened and she tried to explain&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;ing&lt;/span&gt; but the mother&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;’&lt;/span&gt;s boy was very angry.
The funny moment was when all the team saw the worried face of my friend.</description>

		<description>One of the angriest moments &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;in&lt;/span&gt; my life was when we lost the &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;tournament soccer&lt;/span&gt;.
I was &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;10&lt;/span&gt; years old&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;,&lt;/span&gt; my friends and I went to play the tournament in Atlixco&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;, and it&lt;/span&gt; was an exciting experience.
In the event, I remembered that I scored &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;10&lt;/span&gt; goals but unfortunately we couldn&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;´&lt;/span&gt;t win the trophy.
 In the final match we had bad luck&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;ing,&lt;/span&gt; only I scored one goal and I didn&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;´&lt;/span&gt;t play the &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;90&lt;/span&gt; minutes because I injured my leg. We cried a lot because we &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;though&lt;/span&gt; w&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;i&lt;/span&gt;n the &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;event&lt;/span&gt;.
When we came back &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;at&lt;/span&gt; the school, the principal gave us a present for &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;the&lt;/span&gt; second place.
&lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;For&lt;/span&gt; the next year, we didn’t play &lt;span style=&quot;color: #000000; background-color: #00ffff&quot;&gt;preposition needed&lt;/span&gt; the tournament because our coach left the school.</description>
