【题目】 Chinese Paper Cutting or Jianzhi is the first type of paper-cutting design, since paper was invented in the Eastern Han Dynasty in China.

It’s a very distinguishing visual art of Chinese handicrafts. The art form later spread to other parts of the world with different areas adopting their own cultural styles. After hundreds of year’s development, now they’ve become a very popular means of decoration among country folk, especially women. The paper-cuts are also used to decorate doors and windows, and therefore they’re sometimes referred to “chuang hua”, meaning Window Flower. Paper-cuts are chiefly used as decorations. However, today, Chinese paper-cuts are also used for religious and ceremonial purpose, and they’re buried with the dead and burned at funerals.

Chinese people believe the red paper-cuts on the door can bring good fortune and happiness to the whole family. The paper-cuts are more often seen during traditional Chinese festivals, particularly in Chinese New Year, the Spring Festival. They’re also given as gifts to friends or other family members.

Paper-cuttings aren’t produced by machine, but by hand. There’re two methods of manufacture (制造): one uses scissors, the other uses knives. Knife cuttings are fashioned by putting several layers of paper on a relatively soft foundation (衬底). Following a pattern, the artist cuts the motif into the paper with a sharp knife he usually holds vertically. The advantage of knife-cuttings is that considerably more paper cuttings can be made in one operation than with scissor cuttings.

It’s easy to learn about cutting a piece of paper but difficult to master it with perfection. One must grasp the knife in an upright fashion and press evenly (均匀地) on the paper with some strength. Flexibility is required but any hesitation will damage the whole image.

People find hope and comfort in expressing wishes with paper-cutting. For instance: for a wedding ceremony, red paper-cuttings are a traditional decoration on the tea set, the dressing table glass, and on other furniture. A big red paper character ‘Xi’ (happiness) is a traditional must on the newlywed’s (新婚夫妇) door.

【1】It can be learned from the second paragraph that ___________.

A.paper-cuts are mainly used as presents

B.females are better at paper-cutting than males

C.paper-cutting varies from area to area

D.paper-cuts are used in various ceremonies but funerals

【2】What is the fourth paragraph mainly about?

A.Forms of paper-cutting.B.Means of paper-cutting.

C.Advantages of knife cuttings.D.Characteristics of paper-cutting.

【3】From the fifth paragraph, we can learn that ___________.

A.paper-cutting requires great strength

B.pause in paper-cutting makes no difference

C.it is by no means easy to acquire paper-cutting skills

D.it is fashionable to learn paper-cutting

【4】The author develops the last paragraph by ___________.

A.using examplesB.making comparisons

C.analyzing causesD.describing processes

One day when I was walking home, I had heard a noise behind me. It was a pretty dog, and he followed me home. Dad was surprised, saying she looked as the Smiths’ pet dog. Realizing she was very tired, I gave her a bath but kept her company until she felt comfortably.

A big surprise came next morning, when I found her with four little cute puppies! I was in great excite. Before long Dad led Mrs. Smith in, that thanked us for taking care of the dog. She asked whether I wanted to keep one of them — I was thrilling for the sudden joy!
