His paintings opened peoples minds and show
17、ed there were many ways to express ideas.Born in Spain in 1881, Picasso learned to paint at an early age because his father was a painter. At fourteen, Picasso began attending the Academy of Fine Arts in Barcelona. Although Picasso did well, his teachers wouldnt let him develop his own style. So he
18、changed schools. Though his new teachers praised his work, they still criticized (批评) it as being too unusual. Picasso made up his mind to express himself in his own way.Disappointed at his job in Spain, nineteen-year-old Picasso moved to Paris, where he learned about abstract (抽象派) art. However, an
19、 important development in his own style came along when his best friend killed himself. Picasso was so sad that he painted only in blue and grey. He painted the poor and the disabled. This is known as his “Blue Period”.In 1904, Picassos painting style changed again when he fell in love with an artis
20、t model. He began painting everything with colors of red and pink. He mainly painted circus performers (马戏团表演) and artists during this time, called his “Rose Period” .Picassos style went through another change as he began to learn about African art and geometry (几何学). Instead of painting with differ
21、ent colors, he used different shapes. His paintings surprised people because they looked like they had been broken and put back together incorrectly. Picassos new style became known as “Cubism”. Cubism was so unusual that it became very popular.Pablo Picasso is most remembered for his Blue, Rose and
22、 Cubism periods.

Some ask people passing by for a small amount of money and some just si
25、t and wait to be given money.To solve the problem, a plan has been suggested. Ten blue money boxes will be placed in busy places such as the market and the railway station. It aims to encourage people not to give money directly to beggars but instead to give generously to local homeless people.Suppo
26、rters of this plan think it will be a useful way to solve the beggars alcohol and drug problems (酗酒和吸毒). But the police are against the plan arguing that beggars who do not receive cash may turn to criminality to feed their addictions. The homeless charity “Crisis” said the success of any plan will
27、depend on its style. They think that imaginative and active plans can help create local understanding and sympathy instead of hardness. Most of the beggars dislike the plan because they think they will not get enough money from the boxes for their showers, food and clothes. Begging is a big social p
28、roblem both in developing and developed countries. Government must play a big role in solving this problem. Training beggars to work and helping them to find fit jobs is one option. This is especially true for developing countries where many low-skill jobs exist.The general community should also be
