When Wang Haiyan was young, her favorite toys weren’t Barbie dolls. Instead, she started learning to make shadow puppets (皮影) from her father at the age of 13. Now 43, Wang has spent 30 years practising and spreading the art.
Shadow puppetry is a form of theater that uses puppets made from leather or paper with music and singing. It was invented during the Western Han Dynasty, it tells us about folk tales and historical stories, passing down culture and traditions over thousands of years.
Shadow puppetry is all about creating the puppets and performing with them. Wang’s hometown of Hua County, Shaanxi, is known as the birthplace of the folk art.

第 7 页/共 19 页

Puppet-makers must follow 24 steps to make the puppets, including washing the leather, carving (雕刻), and
painting. Carving is the most difficult part.

“We have a special carving skill — moving the leather under the knife.” Wang said. “You have to hold the knife still in your right hand and only move the leather in your left hand.”
It took Wang three years to master this skill. She used a brick (砖) to strengthen her left hand while practising.

“It takes about 3,000 carves to make a shadow puppet. The complicated (复杂的) steps make it hard to hand down the folk art.” she said.
But Wang has found a way to do so. In 2016, she made shadow puppets based on the cartoon series Huyao Xiaohongniang and gave an online performance. She used colors like blue and purple that aren’t often seen in shadow puppetry and added some sticks to the puppets to make the performance more lively. “I hope more and more young people enjoy shadow puppetry and pass it down.” She said.
26. What’s the main idea of the second paragraph?

A. What shadow puppetry is. B. How shadow puppetry is performed.

C. When shadow puppetry became popular. D. Why Wang is interested in shadow puppetry.

27 Which is the hardest step in making a puppet according to the passage?

A. Washing the leather. B. Carving the leather.

C Painting the leather. D. Folding the leather.

28. According to Wang, why is it difficult to spread shadow puppetry?

A. It’s difficult to learn to make puppets. B. This art is only known in Hua County.

C. It requires great strength to perform the art. D. The history of shadow puppetry is too old.

29. What can we learn from the passage?

A. Wang spent 30 years learning to cane puppets.

B. Wang enjoys getting young people interested in this art.

C. Wang has set up a company to make and sell shadow puppets.

D. Wang is working on a cartoon about shadow puppets.
