Egg carving (蛋雕) is often called the most fragile (易碎) art, as it needs great care before, during and even after the carving. Yu Wen, the granddaughter of a famous local (当 地) painter in Dandong, Liaoning Province, has been practicing egg carving for about 25 years.
Yu has used more than 10, 000 eggs, and years of hard work has left many thick calluses (茧) on her hands. Sometimes she can't even hold chopsticks (筷子) properly after a long day of holding the carving knife. But in Yu's opinion, the difficult process (过程) makes egg carving twice as exciting. "If you carve off too much, the work will be broken and there is no way to solve it. That makes the feeling of achievement even greater when you finish a piece." Yu said.
Yu's love for egg carving started with a local (当地的) tradition. In northeast China, when a baby is born, friends and relatives often send eggs colored red as gifts, and some may carve auspiciouswords on them. The character "福" is a popular one to be carved onto eggs. Yu carves with not only popular characters or traditional patterns (图案) , but also Peking Opera masks and wall paintings. Her egg carving is just as much about eggs as it is about Chinese culture.

A、①②③ B、①②④ C、①③④ D、②③④(5)、What can we learn from the passage?A、Yu Wen loves egg carving very much. B、Yu Wen works at a primary school now. C、Yu Wen started to carve eggs at the age of 25. D、There is something wrong with Yu Wen's hands.7. 阅读理解Ancient art doesn't have to be boring. Technology in the 21st century can help to bring it to life by combining (融合) the best of the old and the new.

In early Tang Dynasty, it was introduced to Japan and Korea, so it was called the "Tang Umbrella".
