The Forbidden City
For over 500 years，the Forbidden City was home to emperors from the Ming and Qing dynasties，their families and their many servants. This magnificent palace consisted of more than 9，000 rooms，filled with treasures. And it is believed that millions of labourers and craftworkers took part in its construction. No one could enter the Forbidden City without permission from the emperor.
Today，the Forbidden City is home to the Palace Museum，which opened in 1925. Since then，ordinary people have been able to enter the Forbidden City and admire the rich collection of the Palace Museum，which comprises around 1.8 million objects that cover thousands of years of Chinese history. The Palace Museum is one of only a few museums in the world which can be regarded not only as a museum of art and history， but also as one of architecture，as well as tradition and culture. In short ，it is a symbol of the great and glorious history of Chinese civilisation，preserving the cultural memory of the country.
The Forbidden City was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987. Today，more than 14 million visitors each year walk through its huge gates，making it the most visited world heritage destination in the world.

Look at the title and the pictures. Predict what the passage is about.
Now read the passage and check your prediction.
In the quiet courtyards of Xi San Suo，behind the high walls of the
Forbidden City，time ticks at its own pace. If it hadn’t been for a
three-episode documentary outsiders would never have known that the plainly-dressed people working here are masters of their craft，who have spent their lives restoring precious antiques.
Among these is the clock restoration master，Wang Jin. Walking through the seven crimson gates towards his workplace，Wang Jin still regards himself as an ordinary worker in the Palace Museum，although now he is often stopped by admirers wanting their photo taken with him. Day in，day out，Mr Wang and his students spend their time restoring clocks dating back hundreds of years.
But for quite some time，he and his student Qi Haonan used to be the only two people repairing timepieces in the Palace Museum.
Qing emperors were very fond of clocks. Therefore，in order to please them，foreign envoys presented these emperors with the most intricate and splendid timepieces. Today，the Palace Museum has one of the most significant collections of timepieces in the world，mainly originating from Europe and China. With objects ranging from small pocket watches to clocks over one metre in height，each of these requires its own unique method of restoration. Given the complexity of the work and the lack of necessary materials，this means that each expert can work on a maximum of two large pieces a year. But，through their painstaking efforts，Mr Wang and his students do more than repair the clocks — they bring them back to life.
The only sound to break the silence in Wang Jin’s workshop is the chiming melody of the repaired and polished clocks. To Wang Jin it is the most beautiful music in the world. Now，after eight months of endless adjustments，the time has finally come for Mr Wang to wind up the gigantic clocks that date back to the time of Emperor Qianlong. The intricately fashioned objects that have stood still for centuries instantly come back to life：water flows，boats sail，dogs bark，chickens flap their wings and a woman starts to spin . It is a truly awe-inspiring moment. It is suddenly clear that when the clock masters say that “these antiques have lives”， it is neither an exaggeration nor a metaphor.
But，despite the combined work of several generations of masters，it seems unlikely that the restoration of the clocks will ever be complete. Even if every clock in the Palace Museum were restored，there would still be work to do，because restoration would probably need to begin again on the clocks that were repaired long ago. This is a race against time that can never be won! Nonetheless，Mr Wang remains optimistic about the future of these timepieces.
Following in the footsteps of his own teacher all those years ago，Mr Wang has now passed on his skills to the new members，who will take on many of the future repairs. What’s more，inspired to follow in his father’s footsteps Mr Wang’s son now has also taken up repairing antique clocks. This new generation will not only help preserve traditional skills；the innovation they bring to the craft will also ensure that the art of clock repairing stands the test of time.
In today’s fast-paced world，the saying that “time waits for no man” has never seemed more apt . Yet inside the hidden courtyards of Xi San Suo，there is something timeless about the way Mr Wang and his colleagues sedately piece together the past with skilful hands and modest hearts. It is as if they have become one with their craft and with the history of the country.
Match the questions to the paragraphs and find out the answers.
□ a Why is Wang Jin optimistic about the future of the timepieces in the Palace Museum
□ b Why is it painstaking for Wang Jin and his students to repair the collection of timepieces in the Palace Museum
□ c What has been done to the clocks that date back to the time of Emperor Qianlong
a-（Para 5）Because he has passed on his skills to a new generation of artisans，who will not only help preserve traditional skills but also bring innovation to the art of clock repairing so that it stands the test of time.
b-（Para 3）Because repairing such a large and important collection of timepieces involves complex work，unique methods of restoration and sourcing difficult-to-find materials，which take a lot of time，care and attention to detail.
c-（Para 4）Wang Jin has spent eight months adjusting the gigantic clocks，which are about to be wound up and brought back to life.
□ d Who is Wang Jin and where does he work
□ e What qualities do Wang Jin and his colleagues display in their work
□ f What was special about Wang Jin and his student Qi Haonan
d-（Para 1）He is a clock restoration master，working in Xi San Suo in the Forbidden City.
e-（Para 6）They display qualities of skill，patience，modesty and devotion in their work.
f-（Para 2）They used to be the only two timepiece restorers in the Palace Museum.
Think & Share
What is your understanding of the title，“Masters of Time” What figure of speech does the
author use
What is your understanding of the sentence，“This is a race against time that can never be
won” Do you agree with this Give your reasons.
The title “Masters of Time” not only means Wang Jin is extremely skilled at restoring the ancient clocks but also means Wang Jin can be the owner of his time and make full use of time to repair the clocks. The author uses the punny figure of speech.
At present there are so many clocks in the Palace Museum that are still in need of restoration. As time goes by，they will become more and more worn out and need to be restored again so Wang Jin sees the clock restoration as a race against time. I agree with the opinion because time is limited，but clock repair is endless.
What do Bill Cunningham and Wang Jin in the two reading passages in this unit have in common
4 What can you do to help to pass on traditional skills and the spirit of craftsmanship
They are both devoted, motivated, passionate and skilled masters in their
fields of work.
I will focus on one thing for decades，no matter how boring and lonely it is.
I will really love what I am doing with higher standards and higher demand.
Work in groups. Give a speech about the spirit of craftsmanship in the Palace Museum.
Think about other masters in the Palace Museum. Then discuss the questions within your group
to prepare for your speech. Do further research if necessary.

3 Give your speech to the class.
Now think about your performance in the speech. Vote for the most convincing speech and ask the speaker to share some public speaking skills.
Writing an expository essay
Read the passage and answer the questions.
What do the Summer Palace，Yuanmingyuan and the Chengde Mountain Resort all have in common These Qing-dynasty architectural marvels，along with many others，were all built by members of the same family — the Lei family.
For seven generations，the Lei family quietly dominated imperial architecture. Their designs were admirable，varying from grand buildings to public works，such as roads and dams. So incredible was their skill that many of their buildings survived earthquakes and remained standing over hundreds of years.
The Lei family were also pioneering engineers，who used a grid system to plan their projects in minute detail . They took careful notes and made models of their projects，many of which have survived to this day and are registered as part of UNESCO’s Memory of the World Programme.
In addition to their architectural achievements，the Lei family showed diligence and humility. Each generation conscientiously learnt their craft and undertook ambitious projects，many of which took years to complete. Yet they did not seek fame，and even today，their great works are associated more with the imperial court than with them.
With their remarkable skills，innovation，diligence and humility，the Lei family leave behind their buildings and the legacy that true craftwork is a treasure that can last beyond a lifetime.
1 What is the passage about
The passage is about the Lei family，who for seven generations were behind the marvels of imperial architecture.
What qualities of the Lei family are mentioned Find examples in the passage to support your
answers.
3 What is the conclusion of the passage
The qualities mentioned are those of skill，innovation，diligence and humility. This is evident in their buildings surviving for hundreds of years，in their use of a pioneering grid
system to plan their projects，in each generation’s conscientious learning of their craft and undertaking ambitious projects，and in their works being more associated with the imperial court than with them.
Although the names of those who created these remarkable works may not be known by future generations，their spirit of craftsmanship is everlasting.
Choose one person who demonstrates the spirit of craftsmanship and complete the notes. Do further research if necessary.

Examples： __________________________________________
Conclusion：__________________________________________
The vividly coloured，finely shaped figurines of“Clay Figure Zhang”have been seeing a surge in popularity as an authentic and valuable traditional craft.
The nearly 200-year history of“Clay Figure Zhang”began with Zhang Mingshan，who became known for his ability to breathe life and beauty into these painted clay figurines. Born into a poor family， Zhang Mingshan made them as a means of earning a living. He often visited markets where he observed people of all walks of life，and went to theatres to observe those performing on stage. Day in，day out，he used tonnes of clay to mould what he saw，and sometimes added decorative items or new features to the figurines. So vivid and lifelike were they that they attracted crowds of spectators to the stand from which he sold them.
Fortunately，Zhang Mingshan’s craftsmanship has been passed down through his descendents，with these distinctive clay figurines now being crafted by the sixth generation of“Clay Figure Zhang”.
Now write an expository essay.
□ Learning to learn

The Forbidden City
For over 500 years，the Forbidden City was home to emperors from the Ming and Qing dynasties，their families and their many servants. This magnificent palace consisted of more than 9，000 rooms，filled with treasures. And it is believed that millions of labourers and craftworkers took part in its construction. No one could enter the Forbidden City without permission from the emperor.
Today，the Forbidden City is home to the Palace Museum，which opened in 1925. Since then，ordinary people have been able to enter the Forbidden City and admire the rich collection of the Palace Museum，which comprises around 1.8 million objects that cover thousands of years of Chinese history. The Palace Museum is one of only a few museums in the world which can be regarded not only as a museum of art and history， but also as one of architecture，as well as tradition and culture. In short ，it is a symbol of the great and glorious history of Chinese civilisation，preserving the cultural memory of the country.
The Forbidden City was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987. Today，more than 14 million visitors each year walk through its huge gates，making it the most visited world heritage destination in the world.

Look at the title and the pictures. Predict what the passage is about.
Now read the passage and check your prediction.
In the quiet courtyards of Xi San Suo，behind the high walls of the
Forbidden City，time ticks at its own pace. If it hadn’t been for a
three-episode documentary outsiders would never have known that the plainly-dressed people working here are masters of their craft，who have spent their lives restoring precious antiques.
Among these is the clock restoration master，Wang Jin. Walking through the seven crimson gates towards his workplace，Wang Jin still regards himself as an ordinary worker in the Palace Museum，although now he is often stopped by admirers wanting their photo taken with him. Day in，day out，Mr Wang and his students spend their time restoring clocks dating back hundreds of years.
But for quite some time，he and his student Qi Haonan used to be the only two people repairing timepieces in the Palace Museum.
Qing emperors were very fond of clocks. Therefore，in order to please them，foreign envoys presented these emperors with the most intricate and splendid timepieces. Today，the Palace Museum has one of the most significant collections of timepieces in the world，mainly originating from Europe and China. With objects ranging from small pocket watches to clocks over one metre in height，each of these requires its own unique method of restoration. Given the complexity of the work and the lack of necessary materials，this means that each expert can work on a maximum of two large pieces a year. But，through their painstaking efforts，Mr Wang and his students do more than repair the clocks — they bring them back to life.
The only sound to break the silence in Wang Jin’s workshop is the chiming melody of the repaired and polished clocks. To Wang Jin it is the most beautiful music in the world. Now，after eight months of endless adjustments，the time has finally come for Mr Wang to wind up the gigantic clocks that date back to the time of Emperor Qianlong. The intricately fashioned objects that have stood still for centuries instantly come back to life：water flows，boats sail，dogs bark，chickens flap their wings and a woman starts to spin . It is a truly awe-inspiring moment. It is suddenly clear that when the clock masters say that “these antiques have lives”， it is neither an exaggeration nor a metaphor.
But，despite the combined work of several generations of masters，it seems unlikely that the restoration of the clocks will ever be complete. Even if every clock in the Palace Museum were restored，there would still be work to do，because restoration would probably need to begin again on the clocks that were repaired long ago. This is a race against time that can never be won! Nonetheless，Mr Wang remains optimistic about the future of these timepieces.
Following in the footsteps of his own teacher all those years ago，Mr Wang has now passed on his skills to the new members，who will take on many of the future repairs. What’s more，inspired to follow in his father’s footsteps Mr Wang’s son now has also taken up repairing antique clocks. This new generation will not only help preserve traditional skills；the innovation they bring to the craft will also ensure that the art of clock repairing stands the test of time.
In today’s fast-paced world，the saying that “time waits for no man” has never seemed more apt . Yet inside the hidden courtyards of Xi San Suo，there is something timeless about the way Mr Wang and his colleagues sedately piece together the past with skilful hands and modest hearts. It is as if they have become one with their craft and with the history of the country.
Match the questions to the paragraphs and find out the answers.
□ a Why is Wang Jin optimistic about the future of the timepieces in the Palace Museum
□ b Why is it painstaking for Wang Jin and his students to repair the collection of timepieces in the Palace Museum
□ c What has been done to the clocks that date back to the time of Emperor Qianlong
a-（Para 5）Because he has passed on his skills to a new generation of artisans，who will not only help preserve traditional skills but also bring innovation to the art of clock repairing so that it stands the test of time.
b-（Para 3）Because repairing such a large and important collection of timepieces involves complex work，unique methods of restoration and sourcing difficult-to-find materials，which take a lot of time，care and attention to detail.
c-（Para 4）Wang Jin has spent eight months adjusting the gigantic clocks，which are about to be wound up and brought back to life.
□ d Who is Wang Jin and where does he work
□ e What qualities do Wang Jin and his colleagues display in their work
□ f What was special about Wang Jin and his student Qi Haonan
d-（Para 1）He is a clock restoration master，working in Xi San Suo in the Forbidden City.
e-（Para 6）They display qualities of skill，patience，modesty and devotion in their work.
f-（Para 2）They used to be the only two timepiece restorers in the Palace Museum.
Think & Share
What is your understanding of the title，“Masters of Time” What figure of speech does the
author use
What is your understanding of the sentence，“This is a race against time that can never be
won” Do you agree with this Give your reasons.
The title “Masters of Time” not only means Wang Jin is extremely skilled at restoring the ancient clocks but also means Wang Jin can be the owner of his time and make full use of time to repair the clocks. The author uses the punny figure of speech.
At present there are so many clocks in the Palace Museum that are still in need of restoration. As time goes by，they will become more and more worn out and need to be restored again so Wang Jin sees the clock restoration as a race against time. I agree with the opinion because time is limited，but clock repair is endless.

Writing an expository essay
Read the passage and answer the questions.
What do the Summer Palace，Yuanmingyuan and the Chengde Mountain Resort all have in common These Qing-dynasty architectural marvels，along with many others，were all built by members of the same family — the Lei family.
For seven generations，the Lei family quietly dominated imperial architecture. Their designs were admirable，varying from grand buildings to public works，such as roads and dams. So incredible was their skill that many of their buildings survived earthquakes and remained standing over hundreds of years.
The Lei family were also pioneering engineers，who used a grid system to plan their projects in minute detail . They took careful notes and made models of their projects，many of which have survived to this day and are registered as part of UNESCO’s Memory of the World Programme.
In addition to their architectural achievements，the Lei family showed diligence and humility. Each generation conscientiously learnt their craft and undertook ambitious projects，many of which took years to complete. Yet they did not seek fame，and even today，their great works are associated more with the imperial court than with them.
With their remarkable skills，innovation，diligence and humility，the Lei family leave behind their buildings and the legacy that true craftwork is a treasure that can last beyond a lifetime.
1 What is the passage about
The passage is about the Lei family，who for seven generations were behind the marvels of imperial architecture.
What qualities of the Lei family are mentioned Find examples in the passage to support your
answers.
3 What is the conclusion of the passage
The qualities mentioned are those of skill，innovation，diligence and humility. This is evident in their buildings surviving for hundreds of years，in their use of a pioneering grid
system to plan their projects，in each generation’s conscientious learning of their craft and undertaking ambitious projects，and in their works being more associated with the imperial court than with them.
Although the names of those who created these remarkable works may not be known by future generations，their spirit of craftsmanship is everlasting.
Choose one person who demonstrates the spirit of craftsmanship and complete the notes. Do further research if necessary.

Conclusion：__________________________________________
The vividly coloured，finely shaped figurines of“Clay Figure Zhang”have been seeing a surge in popularity as an authentic and valuable traditional craft.
The nearly 200-year history of“Clay Figure Zhang”began with Zhang Mingshan，who became known for his ability to breathe life and beauty into these painted clay figurines. Born into a poor family， Zhang Mingshan made them as a means of earning a living. He often visited markets where he observed people of all walks of life，and went to theatres to observe those performing on stage. Day in，day out，he used tonnes of clay to mould what he saw，and sometimes added decorative items or new features to the figurines. So vivid and lifelike were they that they attracted crowds of spectators to the stand from which he sold them.
Fortunately，Zhang Mingshan’s craftsmanship has been passed down through his descendents，with these distinctive clay figurines now being crafted by the sixth generation of“Clay Figure Zhang”.
