元宵節(jié)
In the Chinese language, “yuan/元”means the first and “xiao/宵”is night. So the full-moon night of the first lunar month (usually on the fifteenth day) is called the Yuan xiao Festival.
在漢語中,“元”是指“第一”,“宵”指“夜晚”。因此,正月的滿月之夜(通常在第十五天)被稱為元宵節(jié)。
Yuan xiao is the special food for the Lantern Festival. It is a kind of sweet dumplings, which are made of glutinous rice flour filled with sweet stuffing. It is very easy to cook-simply tip them into a pot of boiling water and wait for a few minutes.
元宵是元宵節(jié)的特色食品。它是一種帶餡兒的甜食, 是由糯米粉加上甜的餡料制成。元宵的烹制方法非常簡單, 將元宵倒入水已燒開的鍋中煮幾分鐘就可以吃了。
In the daytime of the Lantern Festival, performances such as dragon lantern dances, lion dances, land boat performances and the yangge are staged. At night, except for magnificent lantern shows, fireworks form a beautiful scene. When the first full moon of the New Year appears, people become really intoxicated by the imposing fireworks and bright moon in the sky.
元宵節(jié)在白天有舞龍燈、舞獅、劃旱船和扭秧歌。而在晚上,除了大型燈會,煙火也構(gòu)成了一幅美麗的畫卷。當(dāng)新年的第一輪圓月出現(xiàn)時(shí), 人們都會陶醉于壯觀的煙火和夜空的明月之中。

清明節(jié)
The Qingming Festival (also known as Pure Brightness Festival or Tomb-sweeping Day) is a festival to worship ancestors and dead relatives in China, which usually falls on either April 4 or 5 of the Gregorian calendar. It can be traced back to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty (770 BC-256 BC), with a history of over 2,500 years.
清明節(jié)在中國是祭祀祖先和已故親人的節(jié)日,通常在公歷的 4 月 4 日或 5 日。它可以追溯到東周時(shí)期(公元前 770 年一公元前 256 年),有 2500 多年的歷史。
The Qingming Festival is a time of many different activities, among which the main ones are tomb-sweeping, spring-outing and kite-flying. It is a combination of sadness and happiness.
清明節(jié)活動豐富多樣,其中最主要的是掃墓、踏青和放風(fēng)箏。這個(gè)節(jié)日既有悲傷又有快樂。
The uniqueness of kite-flying during the Qingming Festival lies in that people may cut the string to let the kite fly freely. People believe that this custom can bring good luck and remove diseases. This is why you might sometimes find paper kites lying on the ground in parks and fields.
清明節(jié)放風(fēng)箏的獨(dú)特之處在于人們會剪斷風(fēng)箏線, 讓風(fēng)箏自由飛翔。人們相信這一習(xí)俗能帶來好運(yùn)并除病消災(zāi)。這就是為什么有時(shí)你會在公園和田野里發(fā)現(xiàn)地上有紙風(fēng)箏。
The Hanshi (Cold Food) Festival was usually one day before the Qingming Festival. As our ancestors often extended the day to the Qingming Festival, they were later combined.
過去寒食節(jié)通常是在清明節(jié)的前一天。由于我們的祖先經(jīng)常把這一節(jié)日延續(xù)到清明節(jié),后來這兩個(gè)節(jié)日就合并成一個(gè)了。
In the South of China, people like to eat qingtuan when going on spring outings during the Qingming Festival. It is a seasonal snack made of a mixture of glutinous rice flour and green plant juice, which is stuffed with sweet mashed beans, dried meat floss and egg yolks. While in the North of China, people eat cold snacks like date cakes and pastries prepared before the Qingming Festival.
在中國南方, 人們在清明節(jié)出游時(shí)喜歡吃青團(tuán)。這是一種時(shí)令小吃, 由糯米粉和綠色植物汁混合制成,以甜豆沙、肉松和蛋黃為餡。而在中國北方,人們會吃棗糕和油酥糕點(diǎn)等冷食, 這些冷食是在清明節(jié)前做好的。

端午節(jié)
The most popular legend about the Dragon Boat Festival is the story of Qu Yuan. As a minister in the State of Chu, one of the seven Warring States, Qu Yuan was a patriotic poet who wrote a lot of works to show his loyalty and devotion to his country. After he was exiled by the king, he would rather drown himself in the river than see his country invaded and conquered by the State of Qin. He died on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, and thus people decided to commemorate him on that day every year.
關(guān)于端午節(jié)最受歡迎的傳說是屈原的故事。屈原是戰(zhàn)國七雄之一的楚國的大臣,也是一位愛國詩人,他寫了很多作品來表達(dá)他對國家的熱愛和忠誠。被楚王流放后,他寧愿投河自盡, 也不愿看到自己的國家被秦國侵略占領(lǐng)。他死于農(nóng)歷五月初五,因此人們決定在每年的這一天來紀(jì)念他。
Dragon boats are beautiful. A wooden dragon head is attached to the bow of the boat, and a dragon tail to the stern. A banner hung on a pole is also fastened at the stern and the boat is decorated with red, green and blue scales edged in gold.
龍舟很漂亮。船頭有一個(gè)木制的龍頭, 船尾有一個(gè)龍尾。掛在旗桿上的旗幟也固定在船尾, 船身用紅、綠、藍(lán)三色的鱗片鑲金裝飾。
It is a tradition for Chinese people to eat zongzi during the Dragon Boat Festival. Zongzi is a pyramid-shaped dumpling made of glutinous rice and wrapped in bamboo or reed leaves, which give zongzi a special flavor.
端午節(jié)吃粽子是中國人的傳統(tǒng)。粽子是金字塔形的糯米團(tuán)子,用竹葉或蘆葦葉包著,這些葉子讓粽子風(fēng)味獨(dú)特。
People in the north enjoy zongzi with dates, while people in the south prefer mixed ingredients, such as meat, sausages, and eggs. This custom is not only very popular in China but also practiced in South Korea, Japan, and other countries in Southeast Asia.
北方人喜歡吃棗餡的粽子,而南方人則喜歡肉、香腸和雞蛋等混合餡料的粽子。吃粽子的習(xí)俗不僅在中國很流行,韓國、日本和其他東南亞國家的人們也吃粽子。 Words and Expressions ① legend n.傳說；傳奇故事 9 banner n.橫幅 ② patriotic adj.愛國的 10 reed n.蘆葦 ③ loyalty n.忠誠 戰(zhàn)國七雄 the seven Warring States ④ exile vt.流放；放逐 端午節(jié) the Dragon Boat Festival ⑤ invade vt.侵入；侵略 舉行龍舟比賽 hold a dragon-boat race ⑥ commemorate vt.紀(jì)念 14 包粽子 make/wrap zongzi ⑦ bow n.船頭 紀(jì)念屈原 in honour of Qu Yuan

中秋節(jié)
Falling on the 15th day of the 8th month according to the Chinese lunar calendar, the Mid-Autumn Festival is the second grandest festival in China after the Chinese New Year. It takes its name from the fact that it is always celebrated in the middle of the autumn season. The day is also known as the Moon Festival, as at that time of the year the moon is at its roundest and brightest.
農(nóng)歷八月十五的中秋節(jié), 是春節(jié)之后的第二大節(jié)日。人們總是在秋季中旬舉行慶祝活動, 中秋節(jié)的名字由此而來。這一天也被稱為月亮節(jié),因?yàn)樵谝荒甑倪@個(gè)時(shí)候,月亮是最圓最亮的。
The mooncake is the special food of the Mid-Autumn Festival. On that day, people sacrifice mooncakes to the moon as an offering and eat them for celebration. The mooncakes are round, symbolizing the reunion of a family, so it is easy to understand how eating mooncakes under the round moon can evoke longing for distant relatives and friends.
月餅是中秋節(jié)的特色食品。在那一天,人們把月餅作為祭品獻(xiàn)給月亮并吃月餅來慶祝。月餅是圓的,象征著家庭團(tuán)圓,所以不難理解在圓月下吃月餅可以喚起對遠(yuǎn)方親人和朋友的思念。
Due to the different diet habits in different regions, mooncakes vary in taste. Traditional flavors include fillings of five kernels, egg yolks, mashed dates and mashed beans. Now there are new fillings like ice cream and durians. Although the flavor of mooncakes is changing, the symbolic meaning of the full moon remains unchanged and the Chinese custom of eating mooncakes and longing for reunions during the Mid-Autumn Festival will never fade away.
因各地飲食習(xí)俗不同,月餅的口味五花八門,包括傳統(tǒng)的五仁、蛋黃、棗泥和豆沙。如今還演變出冰激凌、榴蓮月餅等等。雖然月餅的口味在變,但圓月的寓意一直未變,中國人吃月餅的習(xí)俗和對中秋團(tuán)圓的期盼也從未消失。
Due to frequent communication with other countries and migrations of Chinese people, the MidAutumn Festival has become popular in other parts of the world.
由于與其他國家的頻繁交流和中國人口的遷移,中秋節(jié)在世界其他地方也變得流行起來。
第三部分傳統(tǒng)禮俗
節(jié)氣民俗
The ancient Chinese divided a year into 24 segments based on the sun’s position in the zodiac. Each segment was called a specific "solar term". The 24 solar terms were created to guide the agricultural affairs. They reflect the changes in climate, natural phenomena and agricultural production.
中國古人根據(jù)太陽在黃道帶中的位置把一年分為 24 段。每一段被稱為一個(gè)特定的“節(jié)氣”。 二十四節(jié)氣的產(chǎn)生是為了指導(dǎo)農(nóng)業(yè)活動。它們反映了氣候、自然現(xiàn)象和農(nóng)業(yè)生產(chǎn)的變化。
Eating pears around the Awakening of Insects is a widely-practiced custom in China. As the weather gets warmer and the air becomes dry, people’s mouths tend to feel dry, which can cause colds or coughs. Pears are sweet, juicy and cold in nature, and can nourish lungs to arrest a cough. Therefore, pears are highly recommended during the Awakening of Insects.
在中國,人們普遍在驚蟄前后吃梨。隨著天氣變暖,空氣變得干燥,人們往往會感到口干舌燥,從而導(dǎo)致感冒或咳嗽。梨味甘、多汁、性涼,可潤肺止咳。因此, 在驚蟄期間梨?zhèn)涫芡瞥纭?br/>Eating spring vegetables during the Spring Equinox is a commonly practiced custom in many regions of China. "Spring vegetables" refers to seasonal vegetables that differ from place to place. The ancient teaching in the Chinese classic, Huangdi Neijing, suggests that people eat seasonal foods to help preserve health and bring good luck.
春分吃春菜是中國許多地區(qū)的普遍習(xí)俗。“春菜”指的是各地不同的時(shí)令蔬菜。中國經(jīng)典著作《黃帝內(nèi)經(jīng)》中的古老學(xué)說建議人們吃時(shí)令食品,以幫助保持健康和帶來好運(yùn)。
On the first day of the Start of Autumn, usually people will weigh themselves and compare their weight to what it was at the start of Summer. If one has lost weight during the summer, then at the start of autumn, he or she needs to put on weight by eating many different kinds of delicious food, especially meat.
在立秋的第一天, 人們通常會稱自己的體重, 并與立夏時(shí)的體重進(jìn)行比較。如果一個(gè)人在夏天體重下降,那么在立秋,他或她需要吃許多不同種類的美味食物,特別是肉來增肥。
飲食禮俗
In the Zhou Dynasty (1046 BC-256 BC), there was a fairly fully-fledged system of dining etiquette. Within Chinese traditions, eating has far more functions than just filling the stomach or bringing gastronomic pleasure. It has strengthened kinship and friendship.
在周朝(公元前 1046 年一公元前 256 年),已經(jīng)有相當(dāng)完善的飲食禮儀體系。在中國的傳統(tǒng)里, 飲食不僅是填飽肚子, 或者享受美食, 它增進(jìn)了親情和友誼。
For the seating arrangement, the seat facing the door is called the seat of honor and is the most venerable of all and the left or east seat is of secondary importance. It is better to leave the most honorable place at the dining table for the elders. If a group of people are going to have a meal, the highly regarded members are given the seat of honor while the rest take their seats accordingly.
對于座次安排, 正對門的座位被稱為上座, 是最尊貴的, 居左或居?xùn)|的座位僅次于上座。 最好把餐桌上最好的位置留給長輩。如果一群人去吃飯,地位高的人會被安排在桌子的上座, 而其他的人則依次就座。
As a guest at a banquet, one should be particular about one’s own appearance and determine whether to bring small gifts or good wine, according to the degree of closeness to the host of the banquet. It is important for a guest to be punctual.
作為宴席上的客人,應(yīng)講究自己的儀容儀表,并根據(jù)與宴席主人的關(guān)系程度來決定是帶一些小禮物還是帶好酒。客人守時(shí)是很重要的。
It is not polite to pick up too much food at a time. You should behave elegantly. When taking food, don’t nudge or push against your neighbor. Don’t let the food slop or let soup or sauce drip onto the table.
一次夾太多食物是不禮貌的。你應(yīng)該舉止優(yōu)雅。夾菜時(shí),不要輕推或推搡鄰座。不要讓食物灑到桌子上,也不要讓湯或醬汁灑到桌子上。
When helping yourself to the dishes, you should take food first from the plates in front of you rather than those in the middle of the table or in front of others. It’s bad manners to use your chopsticks to burrow through the food and "dig for treasure" and keep your eyes glued to the plates.
夾菜的時(shí)候, 你應(yīng)該先從你面前的盤子里夾食物, 不要從桌子中間的盤子或別人面前的盤子里夾菜。用筷子在食物中“翻撥找好吃的”和眼睛緊盯著盤子都是不禮貌的。
第三部分中國藝術(shù)
書法
Chinese calligraphy is a traditional form of writing Chinese characters through the use of ink and a brush, which has been rooted in China through centuries of practice. 中國書法是一種用墨和毛筆書寫漢字的傳統(tǒng)形式,它經(jīng)過數(shù)百年實(shí)踐,已經(jīng)植根于中國。
Chinese calligraphy is an art of turning Chinese characters into images through pressure and speed variations of the pointed Chinese brush. It emphasizes the expression of emotions while being a mental exercise to an artist which coordinates the body and the mind to select the best style for the presentation of the content of Chinese characters.
中國書法是一種通過毛筆尖的壓力和速度變化把漢字變成圖像的藝術(shù)。它強(qiáng)調(diào)情感的表達(dá), 同時(shí)也是藝術(shù)家的一種心理鍛煉,它需要協(xié)調(diào)身體和心靈,從而選擇最佳的風(fēng)格來呈現(xiàn)漢字的內(nèi)容。
Chinese calligraphy contains the essence of Chinese culture. Calligraphy is one of four noble arts in China. It is a connective dimension where the Chinese language, history, philosophy, and aesthetics merge.
中國書法蘊(yùn)含著中國文化的精髓。書法是中國四大藝術(shù)之一。它融合了漢語、歷史、哲學(xué)和美學(xué)。
During their long history of development, Chinese characters have evolved into many different script forms, such as the seal script, official script, regular script, running script and cursive script. 漢字在其漫長的發(fā)展史中演化成了許多不同的書寫形式,如篆書、隸書、楷書、行書和草書。
The greatest exponents of Chinese calligraphy were Wang Xizhi and his son Wang Xianzhi in the 4th century. Few of their original works have survived, but a number of their writings were engraved on stone tablets or made into woodblocks, and rubbings were made from them.
中國書法最偉大的倡導(dǎo)者是公元 4 世紀(jì)的王義之和他的兒子王獻(xiàn)之。他們的原作保存下來的很少,但他們的許多書法作品被刻在石碑上或制成木刻印版,并拓印成拓本。

唐詩宋詞
The Tang Dynasty (618 AD-907 AD) was the golden age of Chinese poetry. Tang poetry refers to poetry written during the Tang Dynasty. It is a precious cultural heritage of China and occupies a significant place in the field of Chinese literature and Chinese poetry,
唐朝(公元 618 年一公元 907 年)是中國詩歌的黃金時(shí)代。唐詩指的是唐朝的詩歌。它是中國寶貴的文化遺產(chǎn),在中國文學(xué)和詩歌領(lǐng)域占有重要地位。
The language of Tang poetry has changed so little that they remain easy for modern Chinese people to read. When it comes to authors, Tang poets exist in all walks of life, ranging from emperors, officials, monks, farmers, fishermen to even children. In terms of themes, it tells politics, military affairs, history, landscapes, street scenes, love and so on.
唐詩的語言幾乎沒有什么變化,現(xiàn)代中國人很容易讀懂。說到作家,唐朝詩人存在于各行各業(yè),從皇帝、官員、僧侶、農(nóng)民、漁民乃至兒童。從主題上講,唐詩講述了政治、軍事、歷史、風(fēng)景、街頭軼事和愛情等。
The two best-known poets of the period were Li Bai and Du Fu. Every Chinese person learns poems of Li Bai and Du Fu from childhood. They are as important in Chinese literary history as Shakespeare is to people in Britain. Li Bai is known for the romanticism of his poetry; Du Fu is seen as a Confucian defender with a strict sense of duty toward society.
唐朝最著名的兩位詩人是李白和杜甫。每個(gè)中國人從小就學(xué)習(xí)李白和杜甫的詩歌。他們在中國文學(xué)史上的地位就如同莎士比亞對于英國人一樣重要。李白以其詩歌的浪漫主義著稱；杜甫是儒家思想的捍衛(wèi)者,有著強(qiáng)烈的社會責(zé)任感。
"Three Hundred Tang Poems" is a collection of poems from Tang period made around 1765 by Sun Zhu of the Qing Dynasty (1636AD-1912AD). It has been used in China for centuries to teach elementary students to read and write, and also to cultivate the character.
《唐詩三百首》是清朝(公元 1636 年一公元 1912 年)的孫洙于 1765 年左右所編纂的唐朝詩集。數(shù)百年來,人們一直用《唐詩三百首》來教小學(xué)生讀寫和陶冶性情。
Each Ci (詞) has a title as well as Cipai, which is the name of the tonal pattern and decides the rhythm and form of a verse. The names of Cipai, such as "The Beautiful Lady Yu", "Partridge Sky" and "Midnight Song", are derived from historical figures or events, verses and former musical names.
每首詞都有標(biāo)題和詞牌,詞牌是音調(diào)模式的名稱,決定詞的節(jié)奏和形式。詞牌名,如“虞美人”、“鷓鴣天”和“子夜歌”,源自歷史人物或事件、詩句和以前的樂曲名。
Generally speaking, Song Ci has two main schools - Wanyue (婉約派) and Haofang (豪放派). Wanyue school endows delicate things with exquisite feelings and elegance. Haofang school began to be popular since the creation by Shi who changed into a lyric art. He took splendid landscapes and a lofty ambition to dedicate himself to his motherland into his works, which was greatly accepted.
一般來說, 宋詞有兩種主要的派別: 婉約派和豪放派。婉約派賦予精致的事物細(xì)膩的情感和典雅的氣質(zhì)。自從蘇軾創(chuàng)造性地把詞變成抒情藝術(shù),豪放派就開始流行。他把壯麗的風(fēng)景和為國獻(xiàn)身的豪情壯志融入他寫的詞中,并得到了廣泛的認(rèn)可。

第四部分 中國戲曲
京劇
Included on UNESCO’s World Intangible Cultural Heritage List in 2010, Beijing opera of China is a national treasure with a history of over 200 years.
2010 年,京劇被聯(lián)合國教科文組織列入世界非物質(zhì)文化遺產(chǎn)名錄,是享有 200 多年歷史的國寶。
Over the past hundreds of years, the roles of Beijing opera have been simplified to today’s Sheng, Dan, Jing and Chou, known as the four major roles in Beijing opera.
京劇的角色被簡化為今天的“生、旦、凈、丑”,即京劇中的四大角色。
Beijing opera presents dramatic plays and figures mainly by infusing four artistic methods: singing, dialogue, dancing and martial arts. Singing is used to intensify the appeal of the art by all kinds of tones. Dialogue, which is full of musical and rhythm sensations, is the complement of singing. Dancing refers to the body movements requiring high performing skills. Martial arts are the combination and transformation of traditional Chinese combat exercises and dances.
京劇主要通過融合四種藝術(shù)手段來搬演劇本和塑造人物:唱念做打。唱是通過各種腔調(diào)來增強(qiáng)藝術(shù)的感染力。念是對唱的補(bǔ)充,充滿了音樂感和節(jié)奏感。做是一種需要高超技巧的身體動作。打是中國傳統(tǒng)武術(shù)與舞蹈的結(jié)合和轉(zhuǎn)化。
There are many famous masters in China who are good at performing Beijing opera. Among them, the Four Famous Dans-Mei Lanfang, Cheng Yanqiu, Shang Xiaoyun and Xun Huisheng-are the most well-known at home and abroad.
中國有許多著名的京劇表演大師。其中, 著名旦角有四位一梅蘭芳、程硯秋、尚小云、荀慧生一他們蜚聲海內(nèi)外。
Today, Beijing opera is regarded as one of the cultural treasures of China and has also spread to other countries. It serves as a bridge through which the traditional Chinese culture is introduced to other parts of the world.
今天, 京劇被視為中國的文化瑰寶之一, 并已傳播到其他國家。它是中國傳統(tǒng)文化走向世界的橋梁。
京劇臉譜
Beijing opera has multiple origins. But whatever the origins are, facial make-up is a significant component. The art of facial make-up is very popular at home and abroad and has been recognized as one of the symbols of traditional Chinese culture.
京劇有多種起源, 但不管起源是什么, 臉譜都是一個(gè)重要的組成部分。臉譜藝術(shù)在國內(nèi)外都很受歡迎, 被公認(rèn)為是中國傳統(tǒng)文化的象征之一。
Facial make-up can reflect the qualities of different characters. It uses different colors to portray a character. People can tell a hero from a villain by the colors of the make-up.
臉譜可以反映不同角色品質(zhì)。它使用不同顏色來塑造角色形象。臉譜的顏色讓人一看便知角色的善惡。
Facial make-up has three features: a combination of beauty and ugliness, an indication of the natural qualities of the characters, and the fixed pattern for painting. For different roles, facial makeup can vary a great deal. Each of the patterns and brilliant colors on the painted face has a symbolic meaning: red suggests loyalty, white suggests craftiness, and black suggests uprightness.
臉譜有三個(gè)特點(diǎn):美丑結(jié)合、暗示人物性格、圖案固定。角色不同,臉譜的區(qū)別很大。在涂了油彩的臉上,每一種圖案和亮麗的顏色都有象征意義:紅色表示忠誠,白色表示奸詐,黑色表示正直。
According to different genders, ages and features, each role has its own facial make-up type. Artists use different colors and lines to paint the faces of characters.
根據(jù)不同的性別、年齡和特征, 每種角色都有自己的臉譜類型。藝術(shù)家們用不同的顏色和線條來畫人物的臉。
Among all traditional Chinese operas, types of facial make-up in Beijing opera have developed into the most systematic and mature one. It is featured by painting brows, eyelids and jowls in various patterns such as swallow wings and butterfly wings.
在中國所有的傳統(tǒng)戲劇中, 京劇的臉譜類型已經(jīng)發(fā)展成為最系統(tǒng)、最成熟的一種。京劇臉譜的特點(diǎn)是在眉毛、眼瞼和面頰上畫上各種圖案,例如燕子翅膀和蝴蝶翅膀等。
皮影戲
Shadow puppetry, or shadow play, was very popular in many parts of China during the Tang (618 AD-907 AD) and Song (960 AD-1279 AD) Dynasties. Shadow puppets were first made of paper, later of the leather of donkeys or oxen.
在唐朝和宋朝時(shí)期,皮影戲在中國許多地方非常流行。皮影戲人偶最初是用紙制成的,后來用驢或牛皮革制成。
The design of the figures follows traditional moral evaluation and aesthetics. Audience can tell a figure’s character by seeing his mask. A red mask represents loyalty and a black mask, uprightness.
皮影戲人物的設(shè)計(jì)遵循了傳統(tǒng)的倫理觀和審美觀。觀眾可以通過一個(gè)人物的臉譜看出他的性格。紅色的臉譜代表忠誠,黑色的臉譜代表正直。
The figures all have a large head and a small body. A man has a square face, a broad forehead and a tall strong body while a woman has a thin face, a small mouth and slim body.
這些人物都有著大頭和小小的身體。男人臉方,前額寬,身材高大強(qiáng)壯；女人臉瘦,嘴小, 身材苗條。
The stage for the play is a white cloth on which the shadows of flat puppets are projected. Shadow puppets look similar to paper cuttings except that their joints are connected by thread so that they can be operated freely.
皮影戲的舞臺是一塊白布幕,上面投射著平面人偶的影子。皮影戲人偶外形與剪紙相似, 不同之處在于它們的關(guān)節(jié)是用線連接起來的, 以便可以自由操作。
To break the limit that only the profile of puppets can be seen, shadow puppetry uses exaggeration and heavy dramatization. The faces and the costumes of puppets are vivid and humorous. Different colors, the elegant sculpting and smooth lines make puppets not only props but also artworks.
為了突破只能看到人偶輪廓的限制, 皮影戲使用了夸張和重戲劇化的手法。人偶的面孔和服裝生動而滑稽有趣。五彩繽紛的顏色、精美的鏤刻和流暢的線條使人偶不僅僅是道具, 更是藝術(shù)品。

Having learnt you are interested in Chinese culture and that you cannot decide whether to opt for the Treasures of the Forbidden City or the Exploring Chinese Cuisine, I am writing to put forward my own idea that the second option might be more suitable for you.
The reasons behind the choice, as far as I can see, can be analyzed in three aspects. To begin with, as is universally acknowledged, delicious cuisine is always a popular topic around the whole world. In this programme, you will be introduced the process of making Chinese traditional food, which is also a part of the Chinese culture. In addition, it won’t cost you much time since it is presented by short video, so that you can choose your time freely. Last but not least, although the programme is spoken in Chinese, there are English subtitles for you to have a full understanding of the content.
To sum up, it is advisable that you choose the second one. Hope the above might be of any help to you. Thank you for your time and wish you a great success in learning about the Chinese culture.
