131"The arts (painting, music, literature, etc.) reveal the otherwise hidden ideas and impulses of a society."

Every civilization has its distinctive art style. Sometimes, it somehow reflects the reality of temporary society in certain time and attitude of the some people. And, in modern time, arts also predict some transformations of feelings and viewpoints about world and uniquely express that. However, there are still some common themes or ideas universally shared and expressed by the different artists in different times, countries or subjects. After all, arts are too complex to be summarized as a sentence, or else, the public would not rely on the connoisseurs or scholars’ advice to uncover or explore the meaning of certain style.
Admittedly, to some extent, arts reflect some typical aspects of their temporary situation. For instance, all kinds of popular arts, pop music, TV series, or Movies, merely attempt to cater the taste and fashion of the majority and earn profit. What they demonstrate or express is not far from the enjoyment or feelings which the society at the time could appreciate, at least would not disgust. In the hundreds of Hollywood movies, the typical plot is the heroic actors with Harrison Ford’s face, or with Schwarzenegger’s muscle, lead a common life at first and then are involved into a conspiracy and he found that and try his best to get rid of it, finally defeated all the enemy. And even in the classic art works, the social feelings are one of their important main ideas. From the Renaissance, the subject matters of art works tend to gradually get rid of the constrain of religion and eulogy of the God’s characters, but more try to vividly depict the social living and the character of human themselves. Even the drawing with the themes about the theology, the artists endow the goddess and god in the drawing with more humanity, say, moods, feelings, anger or pleasant etc. It somehow reflects the end of the Middle Age in which the human’s character was looked upon and pressed, and the coming of the Humanism thought.
However, underlying ideas of the arts are not congruous to what the majority believe, sometimes it reveal the feelings of forthcoming transformation of mental world or simply the revolt against the mainstream style in previous time，but not reveal something at the temporary society. In the modernism works, more and more masterpieces did not get the applauding of the contemporary world but enjoy great fame aftermath till now. Compared with the tradition, the modernism like to praise evil, ugliness, wild, and highlight the frenetic emotion and describe distortion or abstraction of reality. Yet, the beauty of the reality and goodness, which used to be extolled and praised in Classicism and Romanticism time, is demeaned and disparaged. The Baudelaire’s The Flower of Evil and Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring in two different ways represent the spirit of Modernism. The latter work even caused chaos in the theatre in Paris at its debut. Maybe people in nowadays has been given or provided with so much joy from all kinds of ways, but stray away from the direction which used to be guided by the church and religion. Then the modernism somehow takes the place of the church and religion, maintains the severity of themes, and reminds people of previous catastrophes and miseries through the exaggeration of emotion, reality, goodness and evil.
And what is interesting is some permanent themes or content always appears in the plot or themes of art in every time. Compared to the superficial variations of social appearance, these inner presence are hidden behind and persisted.  The emotions or humanity among people, like loyalty, friendship, anger, hatred, love, are not only shown in the ancient Greek Tragedies and Comedies and tremendous epics but also in Shakespeare’s outstanding classic works and glorious Russian novels. Till now, they still constitute the stories of dramas, TV series or movies. The happiness is not only flowed in Beethoven 9th symphony but also exaggerated in the laughters of Zaporozhian Cossacks. Suffering is expressed as heavy as Haulers’ trudging besides the Volga, and remained in every note of Tchaikovsky’s the pathetic.
In other word, some importance in the world, say humanity or emotion, is permanently maintained the arts.
In sum, art is not so easy to be summarized. Although the arts and artists cannot survive without certain social background, there are still some content always be attractive and living forever. Neglecting these themes, art cannot develop profoundly with any further. It reflect characters, whatever is linked with or without society, from human beings and make people more human.

看了一遍，我觉得lz语言很好，例子很多。
但是逻辑不清。看了半天我都没看明白你是赞同题目还是反对题目。还是没有完全了解题目问的是什么意思。
让步那段的开头说，arts部分反应现实。但是题目说是显示隐藏起来的现实。你的这段内容看上去是完全反对题目的。用admittedly开头显然不是很合适，应该把自己这段的主题写在第一句。

英语类的文章关键在于每一段只讲一个意思，最好不要一边让步一边反对，如果你想说arts再部分时候也是展现了隐藏的社会信息的，那就用一段说。然后接着3段全部反对。这样混着写，会confuse读者。

第二段你用however开头，但是however这段的内容，还是在反对题目。跟前一段不是转折关系把。再次让我觉得迷惑了。不过出了这个开头，这段论述基本是一个意思，所以我看明白了。

第三段的论述在我看来就完全偏题了。至少你的论述并没有把内容和题目联系在一起。

最后的结尾段让我明白了，你写的这篇是个杂文，或者一个散文。因为这句话能作为这道题目的答案么
试想一下 一个人对你说，我觉得艺术有展现当时社会一些被隐藏起来的信息，如果没有艺术作品，这些都会不为人知。
你应该回答什么不是答非所问，你回答，我不认为，首先，艺术反应的都是大家都看到的xxx其次 艺术肿即使有些大家看不明白的，那也不是在反应隐藏信息，而只是不同流派xxx，再次艺术的主题是不跟着时代变化的，所以也不会反应隐藏信息，比如每个时代的人都渴望快乐，于是艺术就反应快乐，这不叫隐藏信息，诚然有时候反应那么一点但是那也不是艺术的全部。

但是你的结尾段的内容，完全没有直接相应题目。在我看来答非所问。这不应该是一篇议论文的结尾。

总的来说就是你这篇文章如果不是issue，是一篇很好的文章，但是是issue就有点偏离的issue紧扣题目展开议论的重点。

re 小哀
我觉得你这篇习作的一个主要毛病就是观点不够鲜明。比如说Admittedly, to some extent, arts reflect some typical aspects of their temporary situation，后面举了很多例子。但是看下来觉得好像体现了挺多东西，但概括的来说，到底是什么呢？可以具体到一个点上，比如，崇尚自由，挑战精神，etc.。
