About 20 years ago,Zhou Baokang noticed a small clay toy called taiping nijiaojiao(太平泥叫叫 )at a temple fair in Huashan village,Zhenjiang.As someone who loves folk art,he was immediately drawn to it.Today,the 63-year-old Zhou is an inheritor(继承人)of this traditional art form and has spent years protecting and promoting it.
At first sight,taiping nijiaojiao looks like an ordinary clay toy.However,it can also be used as a whistle(哨子).This art form dates back more than 1,000 years to the Southern Dynasty (420-589).Many nijiaojiao pieces use traditional cultural elements that stand for good wishes,such as fish,animals and plum blossoms.
Anyone can learn to make taiping nijiaojiao.The most important step is shaping the clay by
hand.Instead of using sketches(草图),artists use their fingers and imagination to turn a piece of
clay into animals or plants.Simple tools like combs or spoons are often used to make patterns,such as creating the lines of a fish tail.For coloring,different kinds of paint can be used.
Zhou especially enjoys making nijiaojiao in the shape of animals.Every year,he designs pieces based on the Chinese
zodiac sign(生肖),using simple and eye-catching parts to
show each animal's spirit.To pass on this skill,Zhou has taught children in schools for many years and opened a folk art
museum.He also combines nijiaojiao with daily items like pen-holders and tea sets,helping this ancient art stay alive in modern life.
Task 1:
47.Where and when did Zhou Baokang first notice taiping nijiaojiao?
48.What is the most important step in making a taiping nijiaojiao?
49.How do artists shape the clay instead of using sketches?
50.What specific theme does Zhou Baokang use for his designs every year?
51.)What has Zhou Baokang done to pass on the skill of making taipingnijiaojiao?
Task 2:
52.The passage says Zhou was"immediately drawn to"the clay toy because he loves folk art.
Have you ever felt "drawn to"a traditional handicraft or artwork?What was it,and what made it special to you?Please share your ideas in about 30 words.
VI.Writing (作文)(本大题共1题,共15分)
53.Write a passage in at least 60 words according to the following situation.(以“My Opinion
on Managing Money”为题,根据以下情境写一篇不少于60个词的短文,标点符号不占格)
“A penny saved is a penny earned”“节约一分钱,就等于赚到一分钱”,这句话提醒我们珍惜每一份资源;“Use future money!”“用未来的饯”则鼓励我们为梦想提前规划。请选择你更认同的一个观点,结合生活实例,写一篇短文谈谈你的理解与理由。
