27、 Old puppets still dance
非遗传承:小小皮影经精雕细琢,与光影共舞。
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 13. Now 43, Wang has spent 30 years practicing and spreading the art.
Shadow puppetry is a form of theater that uses puppets made from leather (皮) or paper, accompanied by (伴随) music and singing. Invented during the Western Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD 24), it tells us about folklore (民间传说) and historical stories, passing down culture and customs over thousands of years.
Shadow puppetry is all about creating the puppets and performing with them. Wang’s hometown of Hua County, Shanxi, is known as the birthplace of the folk art.
Puppet-makers must follow 24 steps to make the puppets, including washing the leather, carving (雕刻), and painting, according to Wang. Carving is the most difficult part.
“We have a special carving technique (技巧) — 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 stone (砖块) to strengthen her left hand while practicing. 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 (以……为基础) the cartoon series Huyao Xiaohongniang (《狐妖小红娘》) and gave a livestreaming (现场直播) performance. She used colors like blue and purple that are rarely seen in shadow puppetry and added more sticks to the puppets to make the performance more lively.

【3】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 a small county.
C.It requires people of great strength to perform the art.
D.The stories it tells are too old-fashioned for modern audiences.
【4】What is the last paragraph about?
A.Wang’s favorite shadow puppets.
