Ⅴ.阅读理解
In the Chinese countryside, many art forms have been invented and liked by the folk(老百姓). The art of papercutting is one of them. Chinese women in the countryside，from teenage girls to whitehaired grandmothers，can cut paper with scissors into all kinds of things, making papercutting of great interest.
Paper cuts are used to beautify walls，doors，roofs, lanterns and at weddings and funerals. Because papercutting is a Chinese folk art，it has close links with traditional Chinese festivals and customs in the countryside. For example, window, door and lantern paper cuts are put up during the Spring Festival and the Lantern Festival. During the Spring Festival, farmers usually stick white paper on the windows of their houses and then paste(粘贴) green and red paper cuts on them. Paper cuts are stuck to doors and roofs as well on the evening of the Lantern Festival. To celebrate a new marriage, paper cuts are put on the furniture and many places in the bridal chamber(洞房). They are also pasted in rooms to celebrate birthdays or in honor of the dead at funerals. Generally speaking, paper cuts are pasted in courtyards, rooms and on everyday goods to add to a cheerful atmosphere.
There are some special paper cuts of traditional designs. These are used for embroidery(刺绣) on clothes，shoes, hats, pillows, bed curtains and door curtains. The cutter first cuts the outline of paper. Second, the outline is sewn onto another piece of paper. The paper is then charred(熏黑) by a lamp or candle and then the sewn pattern outline is removed. Thus the original design is saved to provide the pattern for embroidery. In this way traditional patterns have been handed down from generation to generation.
