You've probably never seen a movie quite like this one. Loving Vincent is the first animated film in the world to be made completely with paintings. Every scene was created by using oil paint on canvas (画布). Twelve paintings were needed just to show one second of the film. It took more than 100 artists seven years to complete it.

The movie has gotten good reviews (评论) since it came out on the Chinese mainland on Dec. 8. Its box office earnings have reached over $20 million (132.43 million yuan) worldwide, according to Variety.

The film tells the story of the final months of famous Dutch artist Vincent van Gogh (1853—1890). The story is told through his paintings and the characters in them. It shows his death as being part of a murder (谋杀) mystery, as Hollywood Reporter said.

A young man named Armand Roulin serves as both detective and storyteller. A year after the death of Vincent van Gogh, Armand is instructed by his father, Postman Joseph Roulin, to personally deliver a letter to Vincent's brother, Theo. Armand doesn't like Van Gogh, but to please his father, he agrees to deliver the letter, traveling across Europe to the town where Vincent spent his final months. When he finds that Theo has died of a disease shortly after his brother, he visits several important people in Van Gogh's life to find out the truth behind his death. He talks with Van Gogh's friend, a doctor, and the owner of the hotel he lived in. But each person tells a different story.

There are many examples of the artist's work in the movie. The film shows over 120 of his paintings, such as The Night Cafe, Wheatfield With Crows, and The Starry Night. It's no wonder Empire Magazine called it "one of the most beautiful films of 2017".

The real-life letters that Van Gogh wrote to his brother are shown as well. The movie lets you see the real Vincent van Gogh in a different way.

"Did you even hear my question, Lucho?" asked Mr Parra.

The students at the front of the class turned round to watch the show. They were all smiling. Eva Villa had turned to watch too, but she wasn't smiling. For a moment Eva looked straight into Lucho's dark sad eyes and he could feel his face turning bright red. Then she turned back to the front and said something to the girl sitting next to her. The girl laughed.

Mr Parra walked towards Lucho's desk. Lucho liked Mr Parra, although he didn't like history class. There was too much information to remember.

"Maybe you could tell us what I have been talking about for the last twenty minutes, Lucho, while you were looking out of the window," said Mr Parra.

Lucho's heart felt heavy. He had no idea what to say. He looked down at his history textbook. The page was about "The stolen past" and there was a photograph of a gold object that looked very old. Next, he looked quickly at the board and saw one of Mr Parra's favourite things: a mind map. Every time they had to write about something for homework, Mr Parra asked them to make a mind map.

The mind map had four empty circles joined by four lines to a bigger circle in the centre. In the centre circle Mr Parra had written the word "guaca". Lucho tried to remember where he had heard the word before.

They were all waiting. Lucho looked out of the window for a second and saw a little yellow bird. Yes, that was it! Guaca was a word that his grandmother had used, but what did it mean? The class was still waiting for him to speak. Suddenly he heard the little yellow bird singing in the tree outside and he opened his mouth.

"We were talking about guaca, sir," he answered.

"And what is guaca, Lucho?" Mr Parra asked.

"Guaca means ‘special object'. An antique object that was made by South American tribes, usually from gold, sir."

Mr Parra looked surprised. He hadn't expected Lucho to know the answer.

The girl next to Eva turned to look at Lucho again. The rest of Lucho's classmates had lost interest. Lucho felt better, but Mr Parra hadn't finished with him yet.

"That's correct, Lucho," said Mr Parra. "And what is today's homework?"

Homework? Lucho hadn't heard Mr Parra talk about homework. He looked at the mind map on the blackboard again. Outside, the bird had stopped singing.

Bryan and Amelia were waiting for the school bus together. It was Amelia's first day of school, and Bryan was 1 that his friends might laugh at him if they knew Amelia was his sister.

"Amelia, don't call me at school. Just pinch (捏) your nose when you see me," Bryan said. Amelia pinched her nose, "Like this?" Bryan replied, "Perfect!"

Amelia kept her eyes wide open, "But why?" "It's a cool way to say hi," Bryan explained.

Amelia agreed, and Bryan was pleased with his 2.

At school, during the P.E. class, Bryan was playing basketball on the other side of the gym. When Amelia saw Bryan 3 her, she pinched her nose. Mr. Clark, the P.E. teacher, misunderstood it and looked unhappy. "This is a gym class. A little sweat (汗) is a 4 thing!" Amelia dropped her hand. Seeing this, Bryan nodded a quick hi but Amelia didn't notice.

At lunch, when Amelia was waiting in line for food and met Bryan for the 5 time, she pinched her nose again. Mrs. White, the lunch lady, said angrily, "Does the food 6 that bad?" With a red face, Amelia took her hand off her nose 7.

In the afternoon, Bryan was asked to take a message to Amelia's classroom. As soon as Amelia saw Bryan, she pinched her nose, which made the whole class 8. Amelia whispered to her teacher, "It's a cool way to say hi to my brother." The kids laughed again and started to 9 her, trying to pinch their noses. Bryan never thought such a signal would cause so much embarrassment.

After school, Amelia met Bryan by the bus. "Can we make some 10?" she asked. Bryan smiled, "Of course. You can hug or wave when you see me. Just no more pinching. No matter what way of saying hi, it all shows love." Then they got on the bus and went home happily.

One day, Andy was on his trip to business. When he was walking past a village, he saw many people1 their work busily in a large field. At that moment, a young man who sat by the road caught2 attention.

Andy wondered why the young man was free in3 a busy season. He was very curious. Then he decided4 up and asked, "Have you grown your vegetables?"

The young man shook his head and sighed, "Not yet! I5 about the weather. If there is a storm, my vegetables may6. If it is too cold, the seeds may not come out from the ground at all. If it is too hot, the seeds may even go7 in the soil."

Andy nodded his head and asked again, "Then, have you grown rice?" The young man thought for a while, and answered, "Not yet. I should be careful about the birds. They may eat the rice. I can't take that risk." "So, what have you grown then?" Andy asked in8.

The farmer replied, "I haven't grown anything. I am waiting for the best time! I must make sure that9 is going to destroy my plants."

Of course, the best time10 came. The young man didn't get anything from the field at last. In our life, many people may have11 same problem.12 they have dreams, they don't take action because they worry too much about the things that haven't come yet. They always worry about the13 in the future. However, if they don't do anything,14 can they achieve their dreams?

Then, try to do at least (至少) twenty minutes of exercise a day. If you are busy, you can look for some easy ways to exercise. For example, get up from your desk to do stretches (伸展运动) during your break between classes.

At last, find a partner or join a sports team. It can bring a lot of fun when you exercise with others.

Soon they arrived at Miss Minchin's School for Girls and went into the big house. Miss Minchin was a tall woman in a black dress. She looked at Sara, and then gave a very big smile. "_______" she said to Mr. Crewe.

Sara stood quietly and watched Miss Minchin. "Why does she say that?" she thought. "I am not beautiful, so why does she say it?" Sara was not beautiful, but her father was rich. And Miss Minchin liked girls with rich fathers, because it was good for the school (and good for Miss Minchin, too).

"Sara is a good girl," Mr. Crewe said to Miss Minchin. "Her mother was French, so she speaks French well. She loves books, and she reads all the time. But she must play with the other girls and make new friends, too." "Of course," said Miss Minchin. She smiled again. "Sara is going to be very happy here, Mr. Crewe."

Mr. Crewe stayed in London for a week. He and Sara went to the shops, and he bought many beautiful, expensive dresses for his daughter. He bought books, and flowers for her room, and a big doll with beautiful dresses, too.

Miss Minchin smiled, but she said to her sister Amelia, "All that money on dresses for a child of seven! She looks like a little princess, not a schoolgirl!"
