Face-changing is a special technique (技艺) which is widely used in the performing art of Sichuan Opera to build characters, and it is also a very romantic way to show the thoughts and feelings of different characters of the play.

It is widely believed that the skill of face-changing could be traced back to ancient times. In order to scare away the dangerous animals and protect themselves, the ancient people painted their faces in different colors, making themselves look fierce (凶猛) .Later this technique was taken into the art of Sichuan Opera and gradually developed into a unique (独特的) and famous art form.

Generally speaking, there are three kinds of techniques of face-changing, including wiping (擦) the face, blowing the face and pulling the face. Besides, there is sometimes the skill of changing the color of face by breathing.

Before performing the technique of wiping the face, the actor will first spread some special grease paint (油彩) on some certain parts of the face. While on the stage, he could change the color of his face by wiping it. Before the actors perform the skill of blowing the face, a small box full of cosmetic powders is placed on the stage, and the actor just needs to do a movement of kissing the ground. During the process, he blows the box, and then the powders are blown to his face, changing the color into another. The skill of pulling the face is more difficult During the performance of the play, under the cover of the dancing movements, the actor pulls each piece of the facial makeups which is tied with a thin thread (线) and stuck to the his face, therefore the color of the face is changed. The actor must do the movements carefully, or the actor could perhaps pull off none or all of them. What’s more, the actor must do the movements very quickly. Sichuan Opera master Peng Denghuai changed 14 masks in 25 seconds!

In a word, the skill of face changing is very unique and amazing in the arts of Sichuan Opera. It has be widely used as a source of reference by many other forms of operas both in China and the rest of the world.

Several were built around the coast of Britain, and are still standing today-the most famous ones are at Denge, near Dungeness, Kent It is a well-known secret, and there is no public way to get to them, but they can be seen on a special guided walk. The only sound mirror outside of Britain is also one of the biggest: the 61 meter (200 feet) sound mirror in Maghtab, Malta. It is known locally as “il widna,” which means "the ear".

阅读下面的短文，根据短文内容回答问题。

In 1826, a Frenchman named Niepce needed pictures for his business. But he was not a good artist So he invented a very simple camera. He put it in a window of his house and took a picture of his yard. That was the first photo.

The next important date in the history of photography was in 1837. That year, Daguerre, another Frenchman, took a picture of his workroom. He used a new kind of camera and a different process. In his pictures, you could see everything very clearly. This kind of photograph was called a daguerreotype.

Soon, other people began to use Daguerre’s process. People photographed famous buildings, cities and mountains.

In about 1840, the process was improved. Then photographers could take pictures of people and moving things. The process was not simple. The photographers had to carry lots of films and processing equipment (设备). But this did not stop the photographers, especially in the United States.

In the 1880s, new inventions began to change photography. The birth of films (胶卷) meant photographers did not have to process the film right away. This also meant that they did not have to carry lots of equipment. With the small camera, anyone could be a photographer. People began to use cameras just for fun. They took pictures of their families, friends and favorite places.

Photography also turned into a form of art by the end of the 19th century. And behind all these photos lies people’s love for life.
