Even the rubbish bins were made of porcelain. We were 3 by their creativity. At the museum, we learned about how to make porcelain. First, the porcelain clay needs to be 4 into something, like pots. Then, the craftsmen use a special 5 called ceramic glaze (釉) to draw patterns on its surface. It takes them many hours to finish because they work 6 on the fine patterns. After that, the craftsmen put the pieces into a kiln (窑) and burn them at a very high 7 for 12 to 24 hours. Finally, the porcelain can be taken out after it 8 down. As the saying goes, 9 only comes through hard work. It’s easy to see that making porcelain is very time-consuming (耗时的). But the craftsmen’s hard work has 10 beautiful works.
