Lesson 26 Lesson 26:The best art critics 最佳艺术评论家 First listen and then answer the question. 听录音，然后回答以下问题。 Who is the students best critic? I am an art student and I paint a lot of pictures. Many people pretend that they understand modern art. They always tell you what a picture is about. Of course, many pictures are not about anything. They are just pretty patterns. We like them in the same way that we like pretty curtain material. I think that young children often appreciate modern pictures better than anyone else. They notice more. My sister is only seven, but she always tells me whether my pictures are good or not. She came into my room yesterday. What are you doing? she asked. Im hanging this picture on the wall, I answered. Its a new one. Do you like it? She looked at it critically for a moment. Its all right, she said, but isnt it upside down? I looked at it again. She was right! It was!
