3、sometimes right alongside much older pieces of Land Art created by people who lived thousands of years ago.Land Art, which is not necessarily unchangeable, can take a number of forms.

4、he Great Salt Lake. The American artist made a large jetty in a spiral shape which sticks out into the waters of the lake.Reshaping the landscape is a common characteristic of Land Art, which can be created by moving parts around.

5、e salt, which is added to the Spiral Jetty. It is possible to use plants. In all cases, Land Art is immovable.Land Art is designed to gradually form, change, and eventually decay（衰落）. Thats one of the biggest differences between Land Art and most of the art one sees in the museums. Some works of art

6、 can exist only for a few hours or days. Others are exposed to rain and wind so that they develop and decay over time, which is part of the attractiveness in the eyes of the artists.1.

9、 for example. Taxis in Finland are mostly high-class Benz（奔驰）with a fare of two US dollars a kilometer.

10、sign of anxiety.The dining rooms in all big hotels not only serve their guests, but also serve outside diners. Hotel guests have their meals free, so they naturally go to the free dining rooms to have their meals. The most they would do to show their good faith is to wave their registration card to

11、the waiter. With such a loose check, you can easily use any old registration card to take a couple of friends to dine free of charge.The Finnish workers are paid by the hour. They are very much on their own as soon as they have agreed with the boss on the rate（价钱）. From then on they just say how man

12、y hours they have worked and they will be paid accordingly（相应地）.With so many loopholes（漏洞）in everyday life, surely Finland must be a heaven to those who love to take “petty advantages”.
