(2025·南京外国语学校检测)At the International Grand Bazaar (大巴扎集市) in Urumqi, capital of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, Wang Ge, a paper-cutting artist, runs a small store where excellent examples of her work are on display in the popular tourist destination. With just a pair of scissors and paper, the 70-year-old native craftswoman creates different kinds of paper-cuts.
Wang is an inheritor (继承者) of Xinjiang’s valuable cultural heritage of paper-cutting. Growing up in the region and influenced by diverse ethnic cultures, she devoted herself to telling Xinjiang stories through her paper-cutting while protecting and promoting the traditional folk art.
She has cultivated her craft since childhood and grew up in a family fond of the skill. At the age of 4, she began to copy her grandmother and mother, using scissors to cut out patterns of flowers, birds, fish and insects.
“Paper-cutting is a combination of folk art and daily life,” said Wang, who graduated from Xinjiang Normal University. During her decades of paper-cutting, she has been inspired by real-life experiences. She often travels to Kashgar, Hotan and Aksu prefectures in southern Xinjiang to explore how local ethnic people live.
“The bazaar is a window on Xinjiang,” she said. “I hope that I can spread Chinese cultural heritage to people of different ages and from different countries.” Wang also gave online lectures on paper-cutting, attracting 100,000 viewers and teaching them how to cut the images of medical workers, scientists and other heroes from paper to show respect.

(2025·福建龙岩市期末)If you ask a Chinese friend, especially an elderly one, to recommend a popular form of exercise or workout, the answer will most likely be Taijiquan, commonly known as Tai Chi Chuan or Tai Chi in English, a special type of martial arts (Wushu).
Today, there is growing evidence from around the world showing that this mind-body practice can play an important role in treating or preventing many health problems and slowing aging.
In Chinese philosophy (哲学), Taiji is the final source and motive force behind all things and phenomena (现象) in the universe. It also produces the two primary elements of the universe, namely, yin and yang, and the cultural understanding of the unity of heaven and humanity.
The roots of Taijiquan are also closely connected with traditional Chinese medicine. For instance, traditional Chinese medicine holds that qi, or life energy, must be able to move freely throughout the body in order to keep good health and the balance of mind and spirit. And practice of Taijiquan is believed to be one of the best means to unblock the flow of qi. This element has proved that it can benefit people of all ages, particularly the elderly.
Studies around the world suggest that Taijiquan has a number of specific health benefits, such as reducing stress and anxiety, improving mood, increasing energy, and bettering one’s balance and quickness. Other evidence shows that the exercise may help improve the quality of sleep, lower blood pressure, improve overall wellbeing, and reduce the risk of falls among the elderly.
As a daily practice, it requires no special equipment. In aerobic exercise we’re taught to tense the muscles and push hard. Tai Chi is the opposite; it’s about the flow of the whole body in the movement. In order to unite human beings with the natural world, Taijiquan imitates (模仿) motions found in nature, such as movements of animals. Those movements all have very poetic names like “waving hands like clouds”.
5.What’s the purpose of practicing Tai Chi according to the text?( )
A.To promote a typical type of martial arts.
B.To apply the philosophy of yin and yang.
C.To serve as a form of traditional Chinese medicine.
D.To improve physical health and mental well-being.
6.What does paragraph 3 mainly discuss?( )
A.Natural phenomenon. B.Taiji’s philosophical meaning.
C.The construction of the universe. D.The harmony between man and nature.
7.How does Tai Chi benefit the elderly particularly?( )
A.It removes stress and anxiety. B.It prevents blood pressure.
C.It leads to a free flow of qi. D.It builds muscle strength.
8.What’s the best title for the text?( )
A.Tai Chi: A Fitness Art B.Tai Chi: A Chinese Philosophy
C.Tai Chi: A Medicine of Mind D.Tai Chi: An Ancient Practice
