8A Unit 4主题阅读训练 在全球化与现代化浪潮的冲击下，传统手工艺作为中华民族文化瑰宝，正面临技艺失传、受众断层等严峻挑战。阳光中学通过组织沉浸式的非遗工坊探秘日活动，能让同学们近距离接触传统手工艺，在探索与思考中增强文化自信，主动承担起传承与创新的责任。 I.非遗浅观 学校在操场搭建了多个非遗展台，每个展台都展示了各式传统手工艺品。同学们正围着景泰蓝展台观看。 Cloisonne, or jingtailan in Chinese, is a special way of creating designs on metal. Lan means "blue" in Chinese, and jingtailan pieces often have a beautiful dark blue as the main colour. Usually, making cloisonne needs many steps: creating a metal base, using metal strips to create a design, filling the spaces with coloured powders, and firing. Each step needs cloisonne makers to be very careful and creative. Cloisonne appeared in the late 13th century and became popular in the time of Emperor Jingtai in the Ming Dynasty(1368-1644). This gave it the name of jingtailan. In 2006, cloisonne making was added to China's national intangible cultural heritage list. About eight years ago, Li Jinglong and Guan Dian visited the Palace Museum in Beijing. There, they fell in love with cloisonne objects. After their visit, Li and Guan decided to open a workshop to let more people know about Chinese-style cloisonne. This led them to start Handicraft Addicted. People can make their own cloisonne pieces there. Since 2018, they have opened three workshops in Beijing. The whole process of making cloisonne is very hard, but Li and Guan made it easier. People only need to bend thin metal wires into shapes they like and use coloured powders to fill the spaces. Chang Yunqi has been going to Handicraft Addicted in her free time for about five years. "The thin metal wires look like the pencil lines I draw on paper. It was challenging but also interesting," she said. Li and Guan enjoy teaching people to make traditional cloisonne. Many guests like Chang come to their workshop weekly, not only to create art but also to get away from their busy lives. 1. What can we learn about cloisonne from Paragraph 1? A.
