It was a fun thing but he was scared in the b 6 . He soon found it wasn’t a talent thing; it was just p 7 . So he did it more. After about five years of climbing, he found himself in Yosemite Valley on a big wall. He learned that if a person fell in love with something and did it all the time, he would get b 8 at it. Later he found his e 9 really helpful when learning how to read and write. Every day he spent many hours reading and writing, but he used to a 10 them as much as possible.

Since then, he has been creating these mini sculptures in his spare time. While working as a special makeup artist for film and television, he was only able to throw h 9 into the world of art for a few days every two or three months. Early this year, Li decided to start his own mini sculpture workshop (作坊) after l 10 his job. And he has a big dream — he hopes to have a mini sculpture art show in the near future. Hopefully, his dream will come true. You may think that you cannot live through summer without air conditioners. But in ancient China, hand fans were a 1 the only way for people to drive the heat away. Chinese people started to use hand fans over 2,000 years ago. The fans came in different s 2 , such as round and square. They were also made from all kinds of materials. Palm (棕榈树) leaf fans were c 3 and easy to make. Feather fans showed the o 4 high status (地位). Sandalwood (檀香) fans could send out a sweet smell. Later, hand fans became far more than just something that could cool you down. They developed into art w 5 , in which Tuanshan (round fans) and Zheshan (folded fans) were the most common. In the shape of a full moon, Tuanshan were usually m 6 of silk. They had beautiful birds and flowers on them. Women, e 7 those in the imperial palace (皇宫), liked to use them. Poets in ancient China often compared a woman’s unlucky life to tuanshan. Nalan Xingde w 8 during the Qing Dynasty, “If only life were as beautiful as when we first met, why should the autumn wind bother to pity deserted fans?” Meanwhile, men, especially the literati (文人), used Zheshan. The literati liked them b 9 Zheshan were usually made of paper and they could paint and write poems on them. It was a way for them to show off their ability in literature, painting and handwriting. Almost a 10 could be painted on Zheshan. Today, Chinese people still use these fans, though not many people write or paint on them any more. Next time when you are waving a fan, you may think of the stories behind it. There are many kinds of art forms in China. And each different part of China has its own special forms of t 1 art. These usually try to represent the things that are important in life such as love, beauty and family. The most common things, from paper to clay to bamboo, t 2 into objects of beauty. Paper cutting has b 3 around for more than 1,500 years. Paper cutting sounds very easy b 4 it can be difficult to do. The paper, usually red, is folded before it is cut with scissors. The most common pictures are flowers, fish, animals, and things about Chinese history. During the Spring Festival, they are put on windows, doors and walls as s 5 of wishes for good l 6 and a happy new year. Chinese clay art is famous because the clay pieces are so small that they look very real. The pieces are c 7 shaped by hand from a very special kind of clay and then allowed to air-dry. After drying, they are fired at a very high heat. They are then polished and painted. Finally, materials such as wood or paper are added to m 8 different things. I 9 takes several weeks to complete everything. These small pieces of clay art show the love that all Chinese people have f 10 life and beauty. 根据短文内容及首字母提示，填写所缺单词；使短文意思完整，每空限填一词。 Over the past twenty years, Shi Yanchun has helped restore (修复) more than 1,000 cultural relics (文物) in Shanxi Province.

Even by finishing that process, it does not mean that you will always create a good piece of work, and the h 7 part is to make it lifelike. In the past, straw items could be found almost in every family in the countryside, in the f 8 of straw hats and straw shoes, because they were practical in everyday life.

Called the “Land of Abundance (富足)”, Sichuan province is rich in grain production. The people of this area also enjoy a slow lifestyle. So when embroidering, they are usually p 3 enough to spend much time on the form’s intricacy (复杂精致) and elegance (优雅).

Meng has also popularized the culture of Shu embroidery s 9 the tradition was at a risk of waning (衰落). Many cheap products are made by modern machines. In 2005, the factory Meng worked in was f 10 to close. To make a living, Meng rented (租) a small space of 10 square meters, teaching young people embroidery skills. “In the early days, I set up the company just for survival, but now I really feel that I have the duty to pass on the traditional skill, to let it run from generation to generation,” she told China Daily. 2 同步新教材，周周有练习，月月有重点！ 7 同步新教材，周周有练习，月月有重点！ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024-2025学年一线教师制作精品新课系列资料，已编校！ 2024-2025学年一线教师制作精品新课系列资料，已编校！ Unit5 Art world 单元主题首字母填空16篇 短文填空 Roy is a middle-aged man who lives happily with his family in a big house.
