阅读下面短文, 根据短文内容回答问题。
Most women like to have things for daily use in their handbags at all times. Few will put a pair of scissors（剪刀）among these things. But for Shi Qinling, scissors are always with her everywhere she goes.
Shi is a paper-cutting artist. She took an interest in paper-cutting when she was a child. At that time, she often played with paper, cutting it into different shapes. This interest later became a great love for paper-cutting. In 2010, Shi started learning paper—cutting and also got a good job about it in Shanghai.
At first, it was very boring for Shi because she had to spend at least eight hours cutting one shape every day. However, when she was able to try a more difficult shape, Shi would get a sense of achievement（成就）. That made her try harder.
After nearly 12 years of learning and hard work, the 35-year-old became the youngest paper-cutting inheritor（继承人）in Shanghai. She is great.
Although she is so good at paper-cutting, she keeps doing things to improve herself. The reason is that she thinks paper-cutting is not only an art form, but also a form of learning about traditional Chinese culture.
Shi plans to make more creative works of art to draw people to learn papercutting. She says, "Writers tell stories using words. I do something similar, but with a pair of scissors."
