My father, Michael, led me through the outside shed he'd filled with his paintings. “When I

have an exhibition. . ” he began, pointing to the artworks he'd created, before stopping. Poor Pa, I

thought.

In 1994 he'd been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease only in his forties. But after finding the

right medication, he could continue on as normal and so had our family-Parkinson's just wasn't

something we spoke about.

A husband and father to three, he had had a successful career and had always been extremely

creative. Even when his Parkinson's advanced, my father decided to attend a painting course. In art

lessons, the class practised painting still life objects, like pears, but my father had other ideas. In-

spired by his favourite artist, Jackson Pollock, a leading abstract expressionist, he began producing

abstract pieces. He thought that it helped us to see the world in a different way. Soon, I realized he

was right. When I observed my father's works, I could interpret each of them in many ways. While

in 2019, my father was diagnosed with kidney cancer and given just three months to live. We all

couldn't contain our sadness, but we soon received great news that a new form of immunotherapy

miracle. To our sadness, his health battles had started to take a toll on him, and as he continued

speaking about wanting to share his paintings with the world, I knew what had to be done.

In October this year, we welcomed the public to “My Kids Could Do That", my father's first

public showing. Everyone loved his works. His eyes lit up with pride when he saw the walls filled

with his works. I've got three of his pieces in my home and I couldn't be more proud of what he's

achieved.

B. He held an exhibition in the shed.

C. He dreamed of sharing his paintings.

D. He showed off his masterpieces before his child.

International demand for black rhinos horn has seen the animals killed cruelly for decades in

countries such as Namibia, Zimbabwe and South Africa. In 1960 there were an estimated 100, 000

left, and by 1995 fewer than 2, 500 remained. Conservation efforts have brought the number up to

around 5, 600 today, but the species is still critically endangered, and poaching （非法捕猎） is
