This Kung Fu demonstration by Shaolin monks (僧人) was a highlight of the 2023 Shaolin Cultural Day，a rare cultural event for the Orange County community in Southern California. “The event offers a unique opportunity for the Orange County community to actively engage with Shaolin culture and gain firsthand experience in various Shaolin activities，” said Anne Shih，chairwoman of the Board of Governors of Bowers Museum.“Whether it's learning from Kung Fu masters or enjoying interactive Shaolin activities，these experiences will help audiences to experience the Chinese culture and better understand Chinese traditions，” Shih said.

As far back to more than 8，000 years ago，people began mixing clay (黏土) and water then baking it until it held its shape. People attached the word “pottery” to their discovery. For a more convenient and better life，ancient people used it to create various containers and tools to cook，to store things，and to hold cuisine or water as dishes. As time passed，the technique became mature. Different kinds of pottery appeared in different times and regions. Yangshao Culture，5，0007，000 years ago to today，developed a technique for painted ceramic wares (陶器).Qujialing Culture and Longshan Culture，about 4，000 years ago，were known for their black ceramic wares. During the Shang Dynasty (16th11th century BCE) bronze containers grew into somewhat of a status symbol; common people，though，still used traditional clay ceramic wares. From the Warring States Period through the Han Dynasty，the art and culture of pottery boomed. The Terracotta Warriors (兵马俑)，discovered in Xi'an，are the finest representatives of artworks of that time. A representative example of pottery is the tricolor glazed (上过釉的) pottery of the Tang Dynasty (618907)，known as Tangsancai in Chinese. The pottery appeared to be light yellow，reddish brown，or light green but the most popular were yellow，brown and green. The sculpture of figures，animals or daily appliances was amazingly combined with the characteristics of Tang art—graceful and lively. Preferred by many foreigners to the region，such pottery had been transported worldwide. Another choice pottery that won great reputation for hundreds of years is purple clay pottery. It is well­known for its mild color，concentrated structure，high intensity and fine particles (微粒).As early as the Song Dynasty (9601279)，people found that purple­clay teapots looked much more graceful than those of other materials. In the Ming and Qing dynasties，tea developed as a simple and tasteful art. Modern people still take delight in this classic fashion artwork. 5．Why was pottery originally used? A．To add more to farm tools. B．To mark private properties. C．To hold food and water. D．To enhance the quality of life. 6．When could pottery be used to identify one's social status? A．Around 6，000 years ago. B．From the Warring States Period. C．During the Shang Dynasty. D．Throughout the Han Dynasty. 7．What can be known about Tangsancai from Paragraph 3? A．It combined pottery with typical Tang art. B．It represented common people's daily life. C．It adopted the most popular three colors. D．It was well­received by all foreigners. 8．What is the text mainly written? A．To introduce pottery­related information. B．To display fine examples of ancient pottery. C．To explain why pottery was created. D．To explore the colors applied to pottery. 【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了中国陶器的发展历史。 5．D　[解析]细节理解题。根据第一段的最后一句“For a more convenient and better life，ancient people used it to create various containers and tools to cook，to store things，and to hold cuisine or water as dishes.”可知，陶器最初是用来提升生活质量的。故选D。 6．C　[解析]细节理解题。根据第二段中的“During the Shang Dynasty (16th11th century BCE) bronze containers grew into somewhat of a status symbol; common people，though，still used traditional clay ceramic wares.”可知，在商朝，陶器在某种程度上成为社会地位的象征。故选C。 7．A　[解析]推理判断题。根据第三段的第三句“The sculpture of figures，animals or daily appliances was amazingly combined with the characteristics of Tang art—graceful and lively.”可知，唐三彩把唐朝的艺术和陶器结合起来了。故选A。 8．A　[解析]推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了中国制陶技术的起源、发展、典型代表等信息。故选A。 Ⅱ.语法填空 (2024·浙江强基联盟高三联考)Ancient Chinese healing methods 1.__________ (spread) along the Silk Road for over two millennia，but the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) has further boosted the internationalization of the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM).
