【正确答案】 1、正确答案：Paper cutting is a special form of Chinese folk art with a long history of about a thousand years. This kind of art requires very simple tools—only paper and a pair of scissors(or a graver). The process for skilled craftsmen to make paper-cuts is like performing magic. Firstly a piece of red paper has to be folded several times, and then with a few snips, a delicate picture will be cut out of the fold. Some craftsmen do not even need to see before beautiful paper-cuts are made in their sleeves. Paper cutting is an impromptu art: it is also a great carrier of the expressive force, in that no patterns will be followed and each cutout has its individuality. In the old days, windows were pasted with paper. As the white paper was considered monotonous and ominous, women with deft fingers cut out, with red paper, a picture of Sixi Wawa(literally, four pleased dolls)or a beautiful butterfly for window decoration. Therefore, a new life would be breathed into those once ordinary windows.
