Taipingnijiaojiao is a clay toy, but it can be used as a whistle (哨子). It is a traditional toy from Zhenjiang, Jiangsu. It has a history of more than 1,000 years.
Taipingnijiaojiao is made of the mud from the local mountain. It takes more than ten steps to make the clay toy, and the key step is to knead (捏) it with your hands. You can knead the clay toy into any shape, like animals and plants. The blowhole is the most difficult part to make, for the size of the blowhole makes a difference to the sound.
About 20 years ago, Zhou Baokang first noticed Taipingnijiaojiao during a temple fair (庙会) in Huashan Village, Zhenjiang. He soon became interested in it. He later learned from local artists how to make the toys himself. Now he is an inheritor (传承人) of the Taipingnijiaojiao art form.
Zhou loves to make Taipingnijiaojiao in the shape of animals because there is great space (空间) to create. Without drawing any drafts (草图), you can turn some mud into the thing you want. He makes Taipingnijiaojiao for the Chinese animal sign (生肖) of each year. For example, when he was making tigers, he tried to show the spirit of the king of animals through exaggerated (夸张的) details, like big mouths and sharp teeth.
Zhou works hard to pass on his skills. He teaches kids to make the toy at school. Besides, he opens a folk art museum to show the toy. “Taipingnijiaojiao is a small toy that carries traditional culture. We should pass it down,” Zhou said.
( ) 26. What is special about Taipingnijiaojiao?
A. It is only made in Zhenjiang.
B. It can be both a toy and a whistle.
C. It is made of expensive materials.
D. It has a history of 100 years.
( ) 27. What does the underlined word “mud” mean in Paragraph 2?
A. Soft silk. B. Clean water.
C. Dead wood. D. Wet earth.
( ) 28. How did Zhou Baokang get interested in Taipingnijiaojiao?
A. By watching a video about it.
B. By learning from a book.
C. By seeing it at a temple fair.
D. By meeting an inheritor.
( ) 29. Why does Zhou like to make Taipingnijiaojiao in animal shapes better?
A. Because animals are easy to make.
B. Because he needs to follow the tradition.
C. Because it allows more creative ideas.
D. Because kids like animal-shaped toys better.
( ) 30. What does Zhou do to pass on the Taipingnijiaojiao art?

A. ①② B. ②③ C. ①④ D. ③④

Do you know Chuanjiang boating songs? Can you sing them? The boating songs are a kind of folk music. They are the intangible cultural heritages (非物质文化遗产) and a symbol of Chongqing.
Do you know the history of the songs? In the past, the boatmen were poor and they had a hard life, so they pulled the boats to make a living. At that time pulling boats wasn’t an easy job for them. The river ran too quickly for boats, so it was difficult for them to work well.
What’s more, to make sure boatmen could move the boats in the same way, they sang something when pulling the boats. When they sang the songs, they felt more excited and they were full of power to move the boats. Later, these songs became more popular, and people called them Chuanjiang boating songs or Chuanjiang Haozi. This is the history of the songs.
▲ When the boatmen went upstream (向上游), they sang Shangshui Haozi. The voice was strong like a tiger. The job needed a lot of power and they would feel tired, so they sang Haozi to pull the boat more easily. When they went downstream, they sang Xiashui Haozi. Because the river ran too quickly, it was dangerous and difficult. They sang together to cheer themselves up.
What are the spirits behind Chuanjiang boating songs? Chuanjiang boating songs have great meaning to people in Chongqing. They also tell us the importance of teamwork.

My Favourite Traditional Chinese Folk Art
Among all the traditional Chinese art forms, my favourite is paper-cutting. It’s a kind of folk art in China, with a history of more than 1, 500 years. People cut different pictures of people, animals or plants with knives or scissors on red paper.
I’ve been practicing paper-cutting for more than five years. It’s such a wonderful art form that I fell in love with it the first time I came across it. Firstly, it’s a perfect way to make me patient and careful. Secondly, paper-cuts are great presents for my family and friends on special days.
Paper-cutting is part of Chinese culture that all Chinese people should be proud of. And I want to spread it to others.
