18、then we brushed glue (胶水) to the section, and at last we poured colored sand onto the glue in order to make it fixed.Unfixed sandpaintings have a long cultural history around the world.

19、e often temporary(临时的).

25、 of direction, that is. But why is that some people would find their way across the Sahara without a map, while others can lose themselves in the next street?Scientists say were all born with a sense of direction, but it is not properly understood how it works. One theory is that people with a good

26、sense of direction have simply worked harder at developing it. Research being carried out at Liverpool University supports this idea and suggests that if we dont have it, we lose it.“Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around,” says Jim Martland, Research Director of this p

27、roject. “However, if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car, they never develop the skills.”Jim Martland also said that young people should be taught certain skills to improve their sense of direction.

33、 happily，it is a bad thing for young people. Puppy love（早恋）may bring stress for young people and can lead to depression. The study shows that girls become more depressed than boys, and younger girls are the worst of all. The possible reason for the connection between love and higher risk of depressi

34、on for girls is “loss of self”.
