Line number

1. The most famous painter in Victoria's history is Emily Carr. She was born
2. in 1871 and, as a child, she discovered that walking in the woods appealed
3. more to her than playing with other children. She discovered that she was
4. more interested in roaming the streets of old Victoria than playing at home
5. with dolls. Emily was a plump little girl who spent much of her childhood in
6. Hill Park, which was very close to her family home. Drawing fascinated her,
7. and she also liked to play with the animals she kept as pets. She had ducks
8. and chickens, and even domesticated a crow. She was particularly interested
9. in the Chinese people she saw in Victoria's Chinatown.
10. Their culture and way of dressing seemed so distinct from her own.
11. At the age of sixteen she began to study drawing seriously. As she became a
12. young, strong and independent woman Emily began to go on longer and
13. longer trips into the uncharted forests to paint and draw what she saw. In the
14. summer of 1895 she went on an expedition with two other women to explore
15. the wilderness along the Cowichan River.
16. Some time later she travelled up the coast by boat to visit and draw the
17. native villages along the way. This required great daring and strength.
18. When you look at her paintings, you can sense the atmosphere of these
19. dark, mysterious forests. Her paintings are now very famous and, although
20. the dark colours may not be attractive to some people, they evoke the beauty
21. and mystery of the deep woods and the skill of a great artist.

1. Benjamin Franklin is famous in the history of the United States because of

2. his many and varied accomplishments later in his life, as a brilliant diplomat, as
3. a scientist, as an inventor, as a philosopher, and as a public official. Early in his
4. life, however, he was headed for a career as a printer. He was apprenticed at the
5. age of twelve in a print shop that belonged to his half-brother James. Where
6. faced with the unhappy prospect of spending nine years in an intolerable
7. situation, Benjamin devised a way to get out of his contract as an apprentice
8. printer in a rather unusual and creative way.
9. Benjamin’s half-brother James ran a weekly newspaper, the New-England
10. Courant, and it was in this paper that young Benjamin worked as an apprentice
11. printer. Unbeknownst to his half-brother James, who owned the paper, a very
12. young Benjamin wrote a series of humorous letters to the paper.
13. He did not sign his own name to these letters. Instead, he used the pseudonym
14. Mrs. Silence Dogood. In these letters he mocked the life around Boston. The
15. letters amused the paper’s readers, but they did not have the same effect on city
16. officials.
17. As a result of the letters, city officials forbade James to publish his
18. newspaper. James then decided to continue printing the paper using Benjamin’s
19. name rather than his own; in order to do this, however, James had to release
20. Benjamin from his contract as an apprentice. After all, a newspaper could not
21. be headed by an apprentice printer. After James had released Benjamin from his
22. apprenticeship, he was to discover that Benjamin had written the letters that had
23. caused so much trouble. He was angry that he had lost the right to publish
24. his paper because of Benjamin. On his part, Benjamin was delighted to have
25. been released from his contract as an apprentice.
26. Later in his life, after he had achieved success in so many varied fields of
27. endeavor, Ben Franklin did admit that he had not handled his dissatisfaction
28. with his apprenticeship in the most mature way. However, he still appreciated
29. the creative way that he had dealt with the problem.
