Soy sauce was invented by the Chinese over 2,000 years ago and is still used in Chinese cooking every day. Nowadays people don’t give much thought to the traditional way of making soy sauce, as they mostly buy the soy sauce produced in modern chemical methods.
Little known to the outside world, a century-old factory in Xianshi town, Luzhou city, Sichuan, still uses the natural method to produce soy sauce. It simply puts the soybean mixture in big jars under the sun. It takes up to three years to complete. Since 1893, the company has been making soy sauce for more than 130 years.
Water, salt and soybeans are needed to make soy sauce. Natural bacteria (菌群) and old jars make it taste better. The process (工序) allows the beans to naturally produce oil, making a full taste. It is the most special thing of this soy sauce. The factory can only produce about 2,000 jars of soy sauce every year. Also, it takes over ten times longer to finish the whole process in this traditional way. As a result, the factory has faced many ups and downs.
Luckily, the traditional method of making soy sauce in this factory became an intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) in Sichuan province in 2007 and an intangible cultural heritage of China in 2014. “I had the idea to give it up, but I usually said to myself that good things never come easy, just like our soy sauce.” the factory owner said.
1.Why do people seldom think of the natural way of soy sauce making now
A.Because they think soy sauce is unhealthy.
B.Because they mostly buy soy sauce made in modern ways.
C.Because they seldom use soy sauce when cooking.
2.What can we know about the factory in Paragraph 2
A.It is a famous factory in China. B.It has a history of over a century.
C.It took up to 3 years to build the factory.
3.What does “It” refer to in Paragraph 3
A.The low price. B.The long history. C.The good taste.
4.What can we learn from the factory owner’s words
A.Never give up.
B.Knowledge is power.
C.Seeing is believing.
5.What is the main idea of this passage

To tie-dye, you first need to use thread (麻绳) to tie your cloth together. Then you put the cloth into the dye. Some parts of the cloth will become dark blue, while other parts will be lighter in color. When you open out the cloth, you’ll see beautiful patterns.

Yang once made two sets of tie-dyed special dresses. It took him about two years. He used many skills of Anning tie-dye to finish them. Some patterns on the dresses are traditional, while some are modern. “I want to put all the beautiful things into tie-dye works. ” he said.
Yang now teaches tie-dye in many places. More than 100, 000 people have learned from him. Some people worry that there won’t be tie-dye any more because using machines is fast and cheap. But Yang said, “machines can’t take the place of our creative hands.”

China is an old country with a long history and special culture. As time passes by, Chinese people’s clothing changes, too. There are many types of costume in Chinese history, such as qipao and Chinese Tang costume. 35 Sometimes you can see foreigners wearing them. Nowadays more and more people begin to try another costume — Hanfu.
Hanfu was the traditional clothing of ancient (古代的) Chinese people. 36 Ancient Chinese people thought of Hanfu as a very important part of their culture. They wore Hanfu during some special occasions, like the Spring Festival. 37 According to the legend (传说), his wife was the first to know how to make silk and taught others to make Hanfu with silk.

In summer, people wave their fans to keep cool. But the traditional Chinese fan is not just a tool for cooling down. It’s an important part of Chinese culture.
The history of the Chinese fan dates back to over 3,000 years ago, around the time of the Shang Dynasty. One of the earliest known “fans” were named shanhan. They weren’t like the fans we see today. These were tied to a horse-drawn carriage (马车) to prevent the heat (热) of the sun and shelter passengers from the rain. The shanhan then developed into a long-handled fan called zhangshan. This type of fan was made of silk or bird feathers and was mainly used by the emperor’s honor guard (仪仗队) for decoration. It wasn’t until the Zhou Dynasty that people started using folding fans (折叠扇) to cool down.
During the Han Dynasty, the fan became popular among common people. This was because more affordable bamboo fans had been invented. The popularity of these fans continued until the Tang and Song Dynasties. Around the same time, a new type of silk fan was also introduced. Loved by young women, the silk fans were round to resemble the moon. They were also called “round fans,” or tuanshan. Later, this moon-shaped fan took on many other shapes.
The ribs (扇骨) of these silk round fans were traditionally made from bamboo or animal bones. The handles were usually decorated with different designs. The main “face” of the fan was often hand-painted with calligraphy and scenes such as mountains or flowers. Folding fans were mainly made up of panels and ribs. For the ribs, people used different kinds of materials, including wood, bones and bamboo. The panels of the folding fan were usually made of paper, silk or other materials. They formed an empty space for artists to use as a canvas. Their calligraphy work and painted scenes added color to the fans.
From the Song Dynasty on, fan painting became an art form of its own. Works of art featuring birds and flowers were popular among young women. Men, however, preferred fans decorated with calligraphy. Mythical creatures were also popular choices. Dragons were often painted onto men’s fans while ladies usually preferred phoenixes.

41.Why did fans become popular among common people

He enjoys teaching people to make lanterns themselves. He feels very happy when the children complete their work. Technology has made it easier to make lanterns, but Zhai thinks that it’s necessary to pass on the tradition and skills of man-made lanterns. “We need to let more people understand palace lanterns and the culture,” Zhai said in a recent interview.

56 Luckily, more and more young craftsmen (手艺人) are trying to save it. Murong Yi is one of them.
Recently, she shared a video of making a velvet flower online and the video soon got many likes. 57 For beginners, it’s still a big challenge. Murong at first tried to learn from online videos. 58 Finally, she found a one-hour TV program. An inheritor (传承人) carefully showed how to make velvet flowers in it.
Buying materials is another problem. Velvet flowers making needs copper wires (铜线). One key step is to choose the size. Even one millimeter (一毫米) will lead to a different shape. 59 .
When Murong grew as a skilled craftsman, she opened an online store to sell the materials and her products. By doing this, Murong hoped more people would love velvet flowers making.

The hot summer has arrived, and everyone is looking for something cool, such as air conditioners (空调), fans, or maybe some ice-cold drink.
Speaking of fans, I used to love using them in summer when I was young. Back then, my grandmother would sit in the yard, waving a fan to cool me down, and she would point to the stars and tell me stories.
In fact, fans have a very long history.
Did you know that the Chinese word “shan” for “fan” has the word “feather” (羽毛) in it This was because the first fans were made with bird feathers and leaves. The ancient people liked them very much because fans could cool them off and protect themselves from the sun. And that’s how the fan was born.
An old fan in China was found in the Changsha Mawangdui Han Tomb. It was a bamboo fan that was nearly two meters long! Back then, only noble (尊贵的) people could use such a long fan. Later, people realized that short-handled fans were easier to use, so everyone started using these smaller fans.
Over time, fans began to come in many different shapes and sizes. Some were square, some were round, and some were even folded. The fan covers were different, too. Some were made of feathers, some of bamboo, and others from silk or paper.
Fans don’t just bring coolness, but show wisdom and art. They are even used as weapons in the war!
Do you know any other stories about fans
60.The Chinese character for “fan” has the word “feather” because the earliest fans were made with bird feathers and leaves.

“More and more young people are getting interested in intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产),” said Zhang Dingjuan. The 28-year-old lady often shares her bamboo weaving (编织) works online.
Zhang comes from Sichuan province. In the past, bamboo weaving in the area was mainly for making tools. Now, it becomes a beautiful art form.
After college, Zhang went back to her hometown to work as a bamboo crafts designer. Zhang loves trying new ideas in her work. In this way, she adds a modern feel to traditional bamboo weaving works. For example, one of her famous pieces added new colors to the bamboo. This made the patterns look more lifelike.
Once, Zhang worked with an art student. The student advised her to make metal (金属) look like bamboo. This gave her new creative ideas. Traditional bamboo weaving only uses bamboo, but thinking differently brings more chances.
Today, Zhang works with many designers to make different bamboo-woven things. She once made a beautiful bamboo fan with panda designs for a company. The fan, using different colors, mixed a traditional look with a modern feel.

In Tongren city, Guizhou province, there is a special embroidery called leaf-vein embroidery (叶脉刺绣). This beautiful art is one of the main types of embroidery in China.
Leaf-vein embroidery has a history from the Song Dynasty (960-1279). It was first used for communication among people in different areas.
Making leaf-vein embroidery is not easy. It takes a lot of steps. First, choosing the right leaves is important. The leaves from local trees with harder veins served as the best materials. Second, put leaves in clean water for two days to make it soft. Third, brush the leaves gently. Then, it takes three to five days to make them fully dry. Finally, you can create the patterns on the leaves.
Yang Li, a master of leaf-vein embroidery, notes that only about 20 people in Tongren have been able to finish the whole steps by themselves in the last ten years, so it’s challenging to keep this traditional skill alive.
“I have introduced this art in colleges, communities and villages, but very few people wanted to learn it because it was very difficult.” Yang said.
In 2011, she started a leaf-vein embroidery workshop, creating jobs for more than 500 women, including women from villages with disabilities. “In my lifetime, it’s my duty to improve and pass on leaf-vein embroidery. “She said. After that, she also used the social media to show these traditional skills and got many fans.
“Leaf-vein embroidery is a treasure. I decide to save and inherit this skill and hope more young people will return to their hometown to learn it.” Yang said.

As we all know, silk is truly one of the most amazing inventions in the world. It was first found in ancient China. The discovery of silk not only changed the way people dressed but also opened up new paths for trade and cultural exchanges around the world.
Silk has some really special qualities. It is wonderfully strong, which means clothes made of it can last a long time. 81 It is thought to be one of the best materials for clothes.
There is an interesting story about silk. Long ago, Lei Zu, the wife of Huang Di, was enjoying a cup of tea. Suddenly, a silkworm cocoon (蚕茧) fell into her cup. To her surprise, as she pulled on the cocoon, it started to spread itself, and the “line” of silk appeared. She thought that the strong line could be used to make clothes. She then spent a lot of time studying silkworms. She learned about their living habits, what they ate, and how they made cocoons. 82 With everyone’s hard work, the silk industry (产业) was born.
For centuries after that, silk was only used by rich people. It was a symbol of identity and status. The rich would wear silk clothes to show their wealth. However, with the development of the silk industry, things started to change. People found better ways to raise silkworms and make silk, so more silk was produced. 83
In the Han Dynasty, they transported silk as far as Spain, Rome and many other countries. The long trade road they took was well known as the Silk Road. It wasn’t just silk that was traded. People also shared ideas, food, and different ways of life. 84
85 It’s not just for clothes any more. Artists use silk to create beautiful paintings because it is perfect for showing different colors. Kites made of silk can fly higher in the sky. Silk is always warmly received around the world. Wherever it goes, silk brings the charm of Chinese culture and shows the wisdom of the ancient Chinese people.
A.At the same time, it is light and soft.
B.As a result, it was no longer just for rich people.
C.Today, silk can be used for many kinds of things.
D.Things made of silk were too expensive for most people to buy.
E.The Silk Road connected China with the rest of the world, making the world smaller.
F.Then Lei Zu taught her people how to raise silkworms and how to get silk from the cocoons.
