3. After reading

When I turn on the TV, it says more and more natural species are being extinct. When I walk on the road, the air is not clean. Also, it's only may, but we have to buy school uniform for summer. Nowadays, environment destroying problem is really serious. As a result, people are trying to find ways to reduce pollution, and constructing green buildings is one of them.
As I read this writing, I learned that there're many ways to save energy and reduce pollution by developing green buildings, like special drainge system, rooftop gardens, and bamboo floors.
I hope there'll be more green buildings so I can help save the environment.
However, I think the most important thing to save the environment is, trying not to pollute nature at first before inventing things removing them.

I went to school trip.

At first, I was really disappointed because we couldn't go abroad. However, when we are together, every place is fun!

Is art art?

I read a story about one musician who didn't play a piano at all for 4min and 33sec. Also, he says that is a piece of art. I disagree with his perspective thinking that is an art for several reasons.

First, art should give some kinds of feelings to people. The audience must be came to the concert looking foward to listening the pianist's piano playing. However , the pianist absolutely did nothing at all. In addition, He didn't explained or helped the people to understand his behavior better. It means he failed to connect with audience cause the they were confused when they saw his playing. . Also, he disappointed so many people who paid money to enjoy music.

Second, his playing has no elements which are essential to consist music. According to naver dictionary, music is a type of art which harmonizes and combines rhythm, melody, sounds through musical instruments or voice to express feelings. But the pianist's playing doesn't have any rhythms or melodies and even sounds. It can't be called as a part of music and also cannot be an art.

To sum up, I disagree with the idea to consider '4 min and 33sec' to be a type of art becasue, first it failed to communicate with the audience and second, it has no musical elements.
