You can travel three or four hundred miles or only fifty miles a day, just as you like.

Holiday planningBMartha Graham, born in 1894, was one of the most famous dancers and creators of dance, whose influence(影响) on dance has been pared with the influence Picasso had on the modem visual arts, Stravinsky had on music, or Frank Lloyd Wright had on architecture. She created almost two hundred dance pieces. She is often called the Mother of Modem Dance.Earlier in her life, however, Martha did not know that she would bee a dancer. At that time, the dancers were looked down on. So Marthas parents didnt approve of her desire to dance at the beginning. Until 1916, she began her studies at the newly created Denishawn School of Dancing and Related Arts, founded by Ruth St. Denis and Ted Shawn, where Graham worked very hard to improve her ability to dance because she was considered too old to begin dancing.In 1936, Graham made her defining work, “Chronicle”, which signaled the beginning of a new era(纪元) in modem dance. The dance brought serious issues to the stage for the general public in a dramatic manner. Influenced by the Wall Street Crash of 1929, the Great Depression that followed, and the Spanish Civil War, it focused on depression and isolation, reflected in the dark nature of both the set and costumes. Graham continued to dance past the age of seventy. Once again, she was met with criticism from people who came to watch her shows. But she didnt give up. Her last pleted ballet(芭蕾舞) was 1990s Maple Leaf Rag. “A Dancers World” is an introduction to Graham and her work. She tells about her dances and her dance group shows some of their methods.Martha Graham received many awards during her lifetime, including the Presidential Medal of Freedom in nineteen seventy-six. She was the first dancer to receive the countrys highest civilian honor. She died in 1991 at the age of ninety- six. In 1998, Time magazine listed her as the “Dancer of the Century” and as one of the most important people of the twentieth century.24.
