“
Greetings, all. I'm Zhuojuema, sharing insights on Tibetan black pottery's evolution.” You might
encounter this cheerful 19- year- old at the Jambhala Tibetan Pottery Training Institute in Sichuan's Zamtang
county.
In 2016, Zhuojuema started mastering black pottery at the institute. Since graduating in2019, she's been
committed to preserving and promoting this 1.000- year- old Tibetan pottery craft However, its traditional
craftsmanship is fading due to lack of interest, especially among young people like Zhuojuema.
Choi Wang, Zhuojuema's mentor, founded the institute with local government support to revive (复兴)
ancient crafts. Zhuojuema noted,“ The lack of systematic written records and patterns poses the biggest challenge,
as skills were traditionally transmitted orally from master to apprentice.” Zhuojuema and her team compiled
materials by consulting historical texts, gathering black pottery, and interviewing senior craftsmen for
manufacturing details.
An authentic Jambhala Tibetan pottery is purely handmade, free from modern tools. Fired with highland
barley (青稞), it uniquely interacts with local clay, producing its characteristic black color, as explained by
Zhuojuema.
Firing pottery items in the kiln(窑) is a key technique.“ The size and shape of pottery are closely related to
the time and temperature of heating,” Zhuojuema said. Without much previous experience, artisans (工匠) from
the institute keep experimenting and consulting seasoned craftsmen.
Young potters like Zhuojuema have revived the craft, master ing Xi’ an and Jingdezhen techniques. Over
time techniques have evolved, enhancing Tibetan Jambhala pottery with polishing for shine and modernity.
“
We' re making the craft more accessible through small items like teapots and cups,” Zhuojuema notes.
Typically used for large storage (5L+), Tibetan Jambhala pottery now adapts to modern needs.

“
To make it well- known, we must adapt,” Zhuojuema said, sharing her pottery- making
and daily life videos on Douyin to showcase local culture.

4. What do Zhuojuema and her companions work for?
A. Creating pottery with modern tools.
B. Increasing Tibetan pottery production.
C. Preserving the art of Jambhala Tibetan pottery.
D. Selling Tibetan pottery at reasonable prices.

5. How were traditional techniques of Jambhala Tibetan pottery passed down in the past?
A. By word of mouth.
C. By pottery patterns.
B. By records in books.
D. By systematic education.
6. Why is firing in the kiln a crucial skill in Jambhala Tibetan pottery?
A. Because it decides the pottery's color.
B. Because it makes the pottery shiny.
C. Because it uses highland barley as fuel.
D. Because it determines the pottery's size and shape.
7. What is the purpose of Zhuojuema sharing videos on Douyin?
A. To popularize the Tibetan pottery craft.

B. To compete with other artisans in the market.
C. To promote the institute where she learned the craft.
D. To show off her personal skills in pottery- making.

For many, Burning Man is more than just an annual festival; it's a community, a way of
life, and a gathering of like- minded individuals who come together in the Nevada desert to
celebrate art, self- expression, and the spirit of community. However, this year, the event is
facing a significant shift as ticket sales have slumped, leading to a smaller crowd than in
previous years.
The festival, always a sell- out, is noticing a shift. Long- time attended a Lenhart
observes that while the core group of“ absolute friends and family” remains, overall numbers
are decreasing. Artist Tim Bremner from Oakland sees this as potentially positive, as it might
reduce attendees who are more interested in the experience than the festival's ethos,
potentially making room for a new generation of Burners truly interested in its aim.
Bremner's perspective is insightful, as he himself was once a newcomer who managed
to attend due to last- minute ticket availability. The festival's policy change in 2011, which
required registration in advance, has made it harder for casual attendees to secure a spot.
However, the recent drop in sales might once again open the doors to those who previously
found it challenging to get tickets.
The expectation among the“ new generation” of Burners is obvious, as evidenced by the
posts on the Burning Man 2024 Facebook group. Katie Kritzell, a self- proclaimed newbie,
expresses her eagerness to share experiences. Her enthusiasm is a testament to the festival's
lasting popularity and its ability to attract fresh blood into the fold.
On the other hand, some first- times like Mike Morrow have a more skeptical view. His
post, which remarks about skipping the event even if weather is favorable and crowds are
smaller, has sparked debate within the community. Morrow's words make us wonder what
really makes the Burner experience.
In short, the drop in ticket sales at Burning Man might not be bad. It could let the
festival change and bring in new people who really get what it's about. It will be fun to watch
how Burning Man keeps its special spirit as it grows and changes.

D
In an era where policymakers neglect play's significance, its absence from national agendas highlights its
overlooked status. Since 2008, the UK has lacked a unified play plan, with the Conservative Party (保守党)
neglecting previous Labour efforts ( unlike Scotland and Wales). Some non- profit organizations are trying hard,
yet their impact and resources are limited.
The sudden stop to a parliamentary report on children and the built environment, which was close to ending
during the election calls, highlights the previous administration's disrespect for the issue. The children's minister,
David Johnston, reinforced this neglect by refusing to provide evidence, signaling a broader lack of attention to
children's well- being.
Amid Labour’s proposals to ease planning regulations to ensure that new developments meet children's
needs, play should take on a more notable role. Even in educational settings, play could offer a healthy alternative
to excessive screen time. Experts, including Professor Heler Dodd, stress that the scarcity of opportunities for
unstructured and adventurous play contributes to rising anxiety among young people. The well- documented
connection between sedentary(久坐的) lifestyles, poor diets, and unhealthy weights emphasizes the importance of
addressing this issue immediately.
The Centre for Young Lives, founded by Anne Longfield, the former Children's Commissioner for England,
has taken the initiative by launching a commission to advance this critical agenda. A suggested so lution is to
incorporate (吸收) play into Ofsted's inspection framework, although concerns arise about the potential for turning
children's leisure activities into a game or assigning grades.
While play is a natural part of childhood, the new government must go beyond the assumption that children
will naturally benefit from play without the guidance of strategic policies. Francis Alÿs's video artwork serves as a
powerful reminder of the richness and value of play, emphasizing its potential to enrich lives and foster creativity.
Bridget Phillipson, the freshly appointed Education Minister, stands ready to back this vita cause. By
acknowledging the urgency to restore play as a cornerstone of childhood, she can pave the way for a brighter, more
energetic future for our youth. The moment to act is upon us, and th potential for success is high.
