The handicraft I am going to talk about is the paper-cut one. Before almost every Spring Festival, my mom would buy piles of paper cuttings to decorate the home. They would be pasted on the windows and the entrances to bring good luck. But this year, I decided to make the decoration all by myself.

　　這個(gè)考題本身較難，要想描述清一個(gè)手工藝品的制作過(guò)程著實(shí)不易。所以，我們?cè)谶x擇所要描述的對(duì)象時(shí)一定要避重就輕，選擇一些容易描述的。在這里，選擇了剪紙也是處于這樣的考慮。這段描述一開始開門見山，接著在進(jìn)入正題前先回顧了一下歷時(shí)，講述了從前母親用剪紙布置房間的經(jīng)歷。

　　A master of the craft can cut out different drawings freely only using a pair of scissors. But I didnt venture to do it that way. I googled the pattern I wanted before printing it out on a piece of red paper. It was the character Chun. Then I used an engraving knife to cut out the pattern. And an amazing piece of folk art emerged.

　　在描述制作過(guò)程的時(shí)候幾乎沒(méi)有用什么很專業(yè)的詞。我們千萬(wàn)不要到網(wǎng)上去查一堆資料然后把所有的專業(yè)描述統(tǒng)統(tǒng)塞到腦子里去。最優(yōu)的策略是繞開所有的難點(diǎn)。此外在這里還把藝人的剪紙方式和我的方式做了一個(gè)對(duì)比。

　　It was easier than I had thought. I only spent half an hour doing all the printing and cutting.

　　前面的論述已經(jīng)較為充分，所以第三個(gè)問(wèn)題用了兩句話帶過(guò)。

　　After the festival, I fell in love with paper cutting. The craft is not difficult to learn, although it is very difficult to master with perfection. Also, it helps to create a merry atmosphere on special occasions, such as festivals and wedding ceremonies. Furthermore, paper cutting, with which people express wishes, is one of Chinas most popular folk art. It is a piece of art that helps to preserve traditions.

　　最后一段從三個(gè)方面論述了我喜愛(ài)剪紙的原因。其中fall in love with的表達(dá)方式可以用來(lái)替代love, like。最后的一個(gè)詞組preserve traditions值得大家學(xué)習(xí)，在很多藝術(shù)類考題中都能用上。
