The Mayor's decision to build a multi-storey parking garage in the place where Lawton Park now stands has caused angry protests from residents. The parking problem in the city is well- known. However, those opposing the decision claim that the destruction of the park is unnecessary. They also say it shows a total lack of regard for the needs of children especially, who enjoy playing in the park. They insist that another site should be found for the parking garage. Growing populations in cities leads to the development of more facilities like shopping malls, and parking garages to cater for the needs of the residents. This often happens at the expense of nature such as parks, fields or forests in the area. What are the advantages of destroying a park in order to build a parking garage that would serve the needs of a community? Are there any disadvantages? Discuss the issue giving examples.

new yorkers used to see the graffiti on the walls of poor neighbourhoods and subway trains as an example of young people rebellion. the slogans were seen as aggressive, the work of vandals seeking to express their identities or even make a political point. up to the 1970s, most new yorkers hated graffiti.

since those days, graffiti has changed a lot and it is not longer found only in the subway and in the poor areas of the city. nowadays, it has the status of “street art” and you get graffiti in places where you would not expect to – in advertisements, on clothes, on toys, and even on the wall street journal’s official website! in the early 1980s, there was a real craze for graffiti art and the sophisticated manhattan art world had displays of street art in its galleries. then trend was short-lived – until the arrival of hip-hop music in the late 80s.

in her book,  subway art, martha cooper says, “graffiti came back with hip-hop music and people are now appreciating it for its style, which they couldn’t back then, because they couldn’t get beyond the vandalism thing.” hip-hop was originally black music, sung by young african americans from the poor, run-down districts of american cities. when it suddenly got to the top of the american music charts, hip-hop culture was spread, bringing graffiti with it.

today companies are starting to use the appeal of graffiti in advertising. kel rodriguez, who used to spray new york subway trains, was the artist chosen to design the wall street journal’s website and it is obviously done in graffiti style.

many of this new wave of artists give lectures on developments in the art. lee quinones is having a lot of success in europe and feels that european galleries and museums are more open to this art form. “they want to support an artist as he develops,” comments quinones, who can get up to $10,000 for his paintings. indeed, the groninger museum in holland is one of the few museums in the world that displays and recognizes graffiti as an art form.

another artist, blade, has his own website devoted only to the world of graffiti. this website has ‘a page’ where blade sells things with his own original designs all over the world – everything from baseball caps to yo-yos! leonard mcgurr, a street artist for 25 years, went from painting subway trains to designing and marketing graffiti-inspired clothes for young people. “graffiti has been a story of survival,” he says. “there’s a way to benefit from your work without spoiling public property.”

объяснение:

работа с конфликтом.

потерять друзей так же легко, как завести друзей, если вы не знаете 1) как справиться с гневом и конфликтом. конфликт является частью жизни каждого. он появится в школе, на работе и 2) дома. это нормально чувствовать злость, разочарование, раздражение, разочарование или грусть. эти чувства естественны, но это то, как вы справляетесь с 3), что имеет значение. некоторые люди кричат, кричат, ругаются, называют имена людей, пытаются отомстить или даже ударить человека, который причинил им боль. другие стараются держаться подальше от разногласий, 4) так как немногие успешно справляются с конфликтами.

разрешение конфликта - это шаг за шагом. прежде чем приступить к обсуждению проблемы, охладитесь, сосчитайте до 10, сделайте глубокий вдох и представьте себе место для отдыха. затем скажите, что действительно беспокоит вас. делая это, смотрите, как вы выражаете себя. не обвиняй и не обвиняй. поделитесь тем, что вы чувствуете, используя «я» заявления. например, не говорите: «вы всегда руководите мной», но «я расстроен, потому что вы не обращаете внимания на то, что я думаю».

вы хотите, чтобы люди услышали ваше мнение, поэтому убедитесь, что вы практикуете то, что проповедуете. внимательно слушайте 5) другого человека и признайте, что он или она может увидеть проблему по-другому. будьте гибкими и непредубежденными, готовыми извиниться, прощать и двигаться.
