二、阅读理解。（每小题4分，共20分）
Traditional art forms like shadow puppetry（皮影戏）and tie-dyeing（扎染）are important parts of culture. In today's world, some people say these old skills are not useful any more, but I really believe they are worth caring about and passing on for important reasons.
Shadow puppetry, which has a history of over 2,000 years, is more than just a way to have fun. Artists take out leather puppets, then move them behind a screen to tell folk stories and history tales—usually with lively folk music and clear voices. It not only makes people of all ages happy but also teaches young people good qualities like honesty, bravery and respect for parents. What's more, many shadow puppetry scripts are based on classic Chinese novels, making it an interesting way to share ancient Chinese stories with the young.
Tie-dyeing, on the other hand, is a way to show creativity. By twisting and tying cloth before colouring it, artists make beautiful works. Each piece is unique—no two are the same. It has its own special style; it shows the ancient Chinese idea of “different but nice”. It is a real record of ancient Chinese people's smart ideas, connecting us to our culture's roots.
Some people may think shadow puppetry and tie-dyeing are out of date or take too much time. But traditional art forms have mixed well with modern life. Tie-dyeing has become a fashion, with young people wearing tie-dyed T-shirts, bags and small decorations. Shadow puppetry groups now give performances online using modern tools to attract people around the world. Learning these skills also helps develop patience and creative thinking—important skills for today's world.
In short, shadow puppetry and tie-dyeing are not just hobbies; they are the heart of our culture. We must protect them through school classes, having art shows and supporting artists, making sure they grow for our country's future. Only by keeping these traditions can we keep our culture alive and active.
