七、阅读短文，回答问题（10分）
Chinese embroidery（刺绣）has a history of over 2,000 years. It started during the Shang Dynasty when people used it to make clothing more beautiful. Over time, it became an important part of Chinese culture, showing the skills and creativity of different places.
There are four famous embroidery styles in China. Su embroidery from Jiangsu uses very thin silk threads（线）. Artists spend months making pictures look real. Some works even show the same design perfectly on both sides of the cloth. Shu embroidery from Sichuan is known for bright colours. It often shows things from Sichuan like pandas eating bamboo or foggy mountains.
A special “fish-scale stitch”（鱼鳞针法）makes water animals look alive. Xiang embroidery from Hunan makes animal fur look shiny, while Yue embroidery from Guangdong uses golden threads for dragon patterns, which were once only for the king’s families.
Today, embroidery isn’t just for traditional clothes. You can also find it on modern daily objects like dresses, bags and even phone cases. To pass on this art form, China is bringing the skill of embroidery into schools and museums. For example, the Suzhou Embroidery School trains students old skills, while some museums use computers to let students try “digital embroidery”.
The government protects embroidery because each style tells stories about its hometown. By keeping these skills alive, China spreads its culture and connects traditions to modern life.
1. When did Chinese embroidery start?

3. Where can we see embroidery today?
4. What is the Chinese government doing to pass on the valuable art form?

My Favourite Art Form
Art is everywhere in our lives.
Among all the art forms, my favourite is Chinese painting. My love of Chinese painting began when my mother took me to an art museum. I was deeply attracted by those wonderful Chinese paintings. They reminded me of the beauty and peace hidden in Chinese culture. After the trip, I made up my mind to learn it. However, it is far more difficult than I expected, for it needs endless practice and great patience. Day after day, I took pleasure in producing better works. Chinese painting has not only made me more patient and focused, but also let me learn much more about traditional Chinese culture. It is a treasure that never loses its value. I will keep learning and practising it.
