"We've prepared some games for you. If you make it, you can get a stamp (盖章) which shows the logo of the 110th anniversary (周年纪念日) of our school," said the teacher. To celebrate the founding of the school, it designed the special seal (印章). The seal shows the long history and culture of the school, just like the art of seal carving.
The Chinese art of seal carving puts together calligraphy (书法), sculpture (雕像), painting and designing. The history of seals goes back to before the Qin Dynasty. At that time, seals were used as a symbol of power. Both emperors and officers called their seals *xi*. However, starting from the Qin Dynasty, only the emperors' seals could be called *xi*. The officers' seals were named *yin*. For centuries, seals were mostly functional (功能性的). It was during the Song and Yuan Dynasties that seal carving became a form of art.
Now the art of seal carving has caught young people's eye again. Fang Xiaoxi, a 36 - year - old artist, set up a seal carving workshop. Offering hands - on experience of carving seals, the workshop has seen people come up with their own ideas or designs, including logos, cartoon characters like Peppa Pig and pictures of food.
▲ Once an old couple came to carve a nine - square hotpot (火锅) because they first met each other when eating the hotpot. This was a way for them to keep the sweet memories (回忆) of the past. Another girl carved out her boyfriend's name. "I'll give this seal to him as a gift so he'll think of me whenever he sees it," she said.
"Experiencing seal carving is only a start to learn about the art, and people are free to carve whatever they want. They are giving a new life to traditional seal carving," Fang said. "It might not be a wonderful work of seal carving in some ways but I think it is a kind of beauty."

“我们为你们准备了一些游戏。如果你们成功了,你们就能得到一个印有我们学校110周年校庆标志的印章。”老师说。为了庆祝学校的成立,学校设计了这个特殊的印章。这个印章展示了学校悠久的历史和文化,就像篆刻艺术一样。
中国的篆刻艺术融合了书法、雕刻、绘画和设计。印章的历史可以追溯到秦朝之前。在那个时候,印章被用作权力的象征。皇帝和官员都把他们的印章叫做“玺”。然而,从秦朝开始,只有皇帝的印章才能被叫做“玺”。官员的印章被叫做“印”。几个世纪以来,印章大多具有功能性。直到宋元时期,篆刻才成为一种艺术形式。
现在,篆刻艺术再次引起了年轻人的关注。36岁的艺术家方晓曦开办了一个篆刻工作室。这个工作室提供篆刻的亲身体验,人们在这里想出了自己的想法或设计,包括标志、像小猪佩奇这样的卡通人物和食物的图片。
▲ 有一次,一对老夫妇来刻一个九宫格火锅,因为他们第一次见面就是在吃火锅的时候。这是他们保留过去甜蜜回忆的一种方式。另一个女孩刻出了她男朋友的名字。“我会把这个印章送给他作为礼物,这样他每次看到它都会想起我。”她说。
“体验篆刻只是了解这种艺术的一个开始,人们可以自由地刻任何他们想刻的东西。他们正在给传统篆刻赋予新的生命。”方晓曦说。“从某些方面来说,它可能不是一件很棒的篆刻作品,但我认为它是一种美。”

B. 方晓曦也愿意分享她自己的故事来发展她的工作室。
C. 除了展示创造力,印章成为了一种表达个人情感的方式。
D. 让方晓曦高兴的是,篆刻被越来越多的年轻人看到并喜欢。

B. 在古代,只有皇帝和官员可以使用印章。
C. 在秦朝,皇帝的权力比以前更大了。
D. 方晓曦认为人们总是浪费时间刻他们喜欢的东西。
