C. Choose the best answer and complete the passage(选择最恰当的选项完成短文)(每题2分，10题，共20分)★
In a small,quiet village far away from the loud modern city,there lives an old man named Mr Chen. He is a traditional bamboo 57. For his entire life,he has been making beautiful baskets and everyday furniture out of simple bamboo plants. However,his life journey has never been smooth or easy.
When he was a young boy,his family lived in deep 58 and struggled just to survive. Sometimes they didn't even have enough food for a proper dinner. Despite the extremely difficult living conditions,he never gave up his beloved craft. He sat in his 59 room day after day, working with his rough hands until they were covered in scars. Creating these delicate artworks is a very 60 process. It requires absolute focus,and the maker must spend countless hours by himself in the silent workshop without talking to anyone.
As time went by,many young people in the village chose to leave for the big cities to find better-paying jobs. They thought making bamboo crafts was a waste of time,a job only for a 61 who didn't know how to make quick money. Mr Chen had to 62 that fewer and fewer people cared about this ancient skill. Looking at his own old,tired 63 in the clear river water,he often wondered if his skills would disappear completely one day. The feeling of being entirely forgotten by the fast-moving modern world brought him a great deal of mental 64.
Things finally began to change last year when a famous news reporter from Shanghai visited the village. She was completely amazed by the beautiful 65 of Mr Chen's handmade bamboo baskets. She wrote a long,inspiring article about him in the newspaper,calling his incredible skills a true 66 of the country. Suddenly,people from all over the world became interested in his work. Now,Mr Chen has opened a special class,hoping that his beloved traditional art will be remembered and protected by future generations forever.
