These efforts came after many scientific studies had found that art education helps students develop self-confidence and teamwork skills, as well as habits of mind such as problem solving and cr
11、itical thinking, according to The Washington Post. Its true that none of these skills target specific jobs. But as former US ballet dancer Damian Woetzel told The Atlantic, the purpose of art is “to give kids the tools to become adults who are creative, adaptable, and expressive capable of having th
12、eir eyes and ears and senses alive”. And we can now see how we lost track of our born “artist self” on our way to growing up: We failed to keep our capabilities to see, hear and feel, and became blind, deaf and insensitive adults.

17、ike other major events, the marathon also generates a massive carbon footprint. Thousands travel some by planeto the location, and waste from food packaging and goody bags gets left behind by spectators and runners. This is becoming a big issue for citieshow to host a worthwhile event, encouraging p

Yet recently millions around the globe have downloaded FaceApp, which allows users to see how they might age in real life. Many had fun with it, joking that they love
26、 the FaceApp old filter. Beneath the humor is a serious subject: How do we learn to relate to our future selves? Its important that we try to because it could help strengthen the long-term decisions that we make. However, we often fail to make sacrifices for the grayer versions of ourselves. More th
27、an half of the respondents(调查对象) in a recent survey of 2,800 Americans said they rarely or never thought about what their lives might be like 30 years from now. This isnt surprising, since most of us are firmly rooted in the present and thinking about the distant future can seem like a distant prior

In an effort to narrow these empathy(共情)gaps, my research workmates and I have tried to humanize(使人性化) peoples future selves in the same way

Despite this research, Im skeptical that the app users will suddenly increase their pension contributions(养老金供款) and care about their health. The silly app isnt paired with an immediate opportunity to change any of t
