The history of Beijing glassware dates back to the early Ming Dynasty. 1. It is said that when people smelted (熔炼) bronze, they 2. discovered (discover) that some waste materials could form beautiful colours. So, they began to use these materials to make handicrafts (手工艺品 ), 3. which then became the earliest forms of glassware.

During the Ming and Qing dynasties, glassware handicrafts were mainly used as decorations for the members of 4. royalty (royal). Besides, in the Qing Dynasty, they were also made 5. into beads (珠子) for the hats of officials.

After the founding of the PRC, the central government invested 6. enormously (enormous) in Beijing glassware. Old glassware workers 7. were brought (bring) together and a Beijing glassware factory was set up to make decorative glassware handicrafts. Those handicrafts became leading export 8. products (product) at the time.

However, due to various reasons, Beijing glassware 9. making (make) handicrafts gradually declined. Only a few workers today have a mastery of the skill. After more than 600 years of development, 10. the handicraft of Beijing glassware has been passed down to the seventh generation.

(2021·江苏七市第三次调研)No culture in the world has produced a longer continuous tradition of garden design than 1. that of China. Originally, a typical Chinese garden merely 2. consisted(consist) of useful trees planted with the walls around a farmhouse.

In a Chinese garden, a strong belief 3. in a sense of unity with nature is required. The concept of its 4. composition(compose) is to “bring out the rhythm of nature”. It is a place 5. where visitors can appreciate the classic beauty with an educated mind and eye.

Plants are not essential to the integrity of a Chinese garden. Rocks and water come first, 6. followed(follow) by architecture, plants, trees and flowers. To the Chinese, their associations were far 7. more important(important) than looks. Bamboo, which bends in the wind and doesn't break, symbolises 8. an honourable man.

Irregularity of design is the key to the success of a garden. Just as all other art forms in the Chinese culture 9. have been affected(affect) by Confucianism or Daoism, two main 10. philosophies(philosophy) in China, so has the Chinese garden. This is reflected in the importance placed on its siting.
