At first, he copied designs (图样) he found in books and gradually made great progress. He was able to create his own designs at the age of ten. Today Jeong has become a master in paper folding. For Jeong, paper folding is not just a hobby. It’s a great way to clear his mind. “Whenever I study for a test or search for a job, I make sure I have a piece of paper with me,” Jeong said. “There are moments when things don’t go my way—that’s when I prefer to take my paper out and begin to fold.

It is a popular activity for people of all ages. Many artists have been practising it for years, and some are even making a living out of their excellent paper folding skills. As a big fan of paper folding, Jaeil Jeong knew nothing about it before his parents brought home a paper folding book. Young Jeong quickly took an interest in the creations inside and learned to fold some of them himself. As a result, he found it so interesting that he decided to take it up as a hobby. At first, he copied designs (图样) he found in books and gradually made great progress. He was able to create his own designs at the age of ten. Today Jeong has become a master in paper folding. For Jeong, paper folding is not just a hobby. It’s a great way to clear his mind. “Whenever I study for a test or search for a job, I make sure I have a piece of paper with me,” Jeong said. “There are moments when things don’t go my way—that’s when I prefer to take my paper out and begin to fold. My mind is clear as if I am meditating (冥想). It can really bring me lots of pleasure.” 41. How did Jaeil Jeong know about paper folding? ______________________________________ 42.
