A
Egg carving( 蛋雕 ) is often called the most fragile( 易碎的 ) art, as it requires great care
before, during and even after the carving. Yu Wen, the granddaughter of a famous local painter in
Dandong, Liaoning Province, has been practicing egg carving for about 25 years.
Yu has used more than 10,000 eggs, and years of hard work has left many thick calluses( 茧 )
on her hands. Sometimes she can’t even hold chopsticks properly after a long day of holding the
carving knife. But in Yu’s opinion, the difficult process makes egg carving twice as exciting. “If
you carve off too much, the work is broken and there is no way to deal with it. That makes the
sense of achievement even greater when you finish a piece,” said Yu.
Yu’s love for egg carving started with a local tradition. In northeast China, when a baby is
3
born, friends and relatives often give eggs colored red as gifts, and some may carve auspicious( 吉
利的 ) words on them. The character “ fu ” is a popular one to be carved onto eggs. Yu carves with
not only popular characters or traditional patterns, but also Peking Opera masks and wall
paintings. Her egg carving is just as much about eggs as it is about Chinese culture.
Now Yu teaches egg carving at a local university. In recent years, she has seen more people
coming from across the country learn the art. “I hope I can better combine( 结合 ) the art with
traditional culture in the future,” Yu said.
1.What is most needed during the process of carving an egg?
A.Much money. B.Colored eggs. C.Much attention.
D.Carving knives.
2.What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A.The work.
B.The process. C.The culture.
D.The knife.
3.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.Egg carving is the most fragile art because it only requires care during the carving.
B.Yu thinks the difficult process makes egg carving less exciting.
C.Yu’s love for egg carving comes from her grandfather.
D.Now Yu teaches egg carving at a university in Liaoning Province.
4.According to the passage, what does Yu Wen carve onto eggs?
① Babies’ pictures.
② Traditional patterns.
③ Peking Opera masks.
Wall paintings.
④
A. ①②③
B. ①②④
C. ①③④
D. ②③④
5.What can we learn from the passage?
A.Yu Wen loves egg carving very much.
B.Yu Wen works at a primary school now.
C.Yu Wen started to carve eggs at the age of 25.
D.There is something wrong with Yu Wen’s eyes.
B
When he learned to paint as a teenager, Xiao, a farmer in Henan, could never have imagined
it would help him make a lot of money.
In the past, villagers in Xiao’s village Wanggongzhuang drew and sold new year paintings, a kind
of business that goes back to the early 20th century when a man brought the skill to the village.
In the 1980s, Xiao practiced in his free time after farm work and traveled to cities to sell his
pieces. They sold so cheaply that he could hardly make any money.
Then in 1998, the Year of the Tiger, a client ( 客户 ) ordered a tiger painting. “I mainly painted
flowers and birds, but not once had I painted a tiger,” Xiao said.
With no real tigers around, he borrowed a tiger painting from a neighbor to copy. His
painting sold at a good price, and he realized he was onto something ( 掌握 ) that could benefit the
whole village.
So he began to travel, not to sell paintings, but to zoos in northeastern China to watch tigers
and paint them.
It was a great success. In 1999, he was the first in the village to buy a color TV, and a year
