A Picure to Remember

I read this book "A Picture to Remember". I went to Latin America recently, so it was possible to read very interesting.

After Reading
Q2:Which museums or art galleries have you visited? Are there any pictures that you remember very well? Why?

I visited some famous museums, for example, Musee du Louvre and Musee d’Orsay in Paris, and National Gallery and Tate Modern in London, and Kunsthistorsches Museum in Wien, and Museum Modern Art in New York, and The Art Institute of Chicago, and so on. When I visited foreign country, I usually visited museums because I like both paintings and atmosphere of the museum.
In these museums, “La Charmeuse de serpents” painted by Henri Rousseau left the deepest impression for me. It is exhibited in Musee d’Orsay. This painting is very mysterious and fantastic. The woman in this painting is drawn almost in the black, and only eyes are clear. I felt not only beauty but also fear.

No.8 On page 40, Daniel phones his policeman friend. Write their conversation.

Hello, it is Daniel

Oh hi, Daniel.

I would like to consult with you about my friend Cristina.
I think someone is seeking her life. She hurt in my gym
the other day. She felt someone fell the weight.
And then she had a chance to go hit by car. I am afraid for her.
Now we are going to go to police station to meet you. Is it OK?

It’s OK. But I think she is under watch. So I feel she is dangerous
to come to police station. They probably will kill her.
Shall we meet in front of her house?

Let’s do that. Thank of your advice! See you later.

A picture to Remember

I have read the book.I interested to this story.

I selected the after reading No.3: Which character did you like best in "A picture to Remember".

I like Daniel. Daniel is a gym manager at the Recoleta Health Club in Argentina. I thought if Daniel is not exist in story, then this story is not established.But he is not both a main person and a heroine.
Daniel save Cristina(main person in story) from mafia(Roberto and Calros). And her headache went away by Daniel's action as 3 below things in story.

1. Roberto dropped a weight to Cristina and hurt her, when Daniel quickly leave for her and give medical treatment in his managing gym. Also after following her, he aggressively tryed to dig out the criminal.

2. When Cristina and Daniel ran away from mafia(Calros and Roberto) on the Argentine road , he actived to protecting her at ending story. Then Daniel said things at last sean (Carlos and Robert's car hit the police car), he said "Stay here, It could still be dangerous." I felt he calmed down and judged a situation at any time.

3. A lot of people come at his gym. Maybe his gym is comfortable and clean for guest by his good humanity (At anytime, he smile and polite to first coming guest).

I wanted to emulate Daniel's behavior after reading this story.
