A small accident led to profound changes in the life of Yang Li, an artisan ( 手艺人), who is from the Miao
ethnic group. In 201l, Yang, from Tongren city in Guizhou province, created leaf vein (脉络) embroidery (刺绣)
three months after a leaf cut her hand.
The work is a perfect combination of traditional embroidery patterns and the natural textures (纹理) of the
leaves. It has a unique aesthetic appeal of traditional embroidery matched with the characteristics of contemporary
craftsmanship.
As a native Miao woman with an inborn love of embroidery, Yang opened a folk culture products shop with
her sister in 2011. “People are becoming less familiar with traditional handicrafts, and I want to contribute all I
can to change this situation,” Yang says. At first, the small shop did not earn a significant income as there were
many similar products on the market. She gradually realized that it was important to establish her own brand and
launch products with distinct features.
That’s when she was inspired by the cut. In July 2011, Yang accidentally cut her hand on a thorny leaf when
she was hiking in Fanjing Mountain. A bold idea came into her head: “There are leaf-vein bookmarks and leaf-
vein paintings. Why has nobody created leaf-vein embroider yet?”
Obviously, the reason behind this is that embroidering on leaves requires delicate skills that few possess. The
biggest technical challenge Yang faced was improving the flexibility of the leaves and making them as soft as
cloth. On Oct 16, a day she will never forget, Yang finally created a shiny, thin and unbreakable piece of leaf vein.
Her idea of leaf-vein embroidery came to completion after hundreds of experiments.
Two years later, Yang opened an embroidery processing factory and offered jobs to more than 500 laid-off
female workers, rural women and people with disabilities. “I will keep doing the leaf vein embroidery for the rest
of my life because it is meaningful,” she says.
24. What do we know about Yang Li’s folk culture products shop?
A. It was inspired by a cut by a leaf in her hand.
B. It was a failure before she began to sell similar products.
C. It was intended to preserve traditional Chinese handicrafts.
D. It perfectly combined traditional Chinese books and drawings.
25. What is Yang Li’s difficulty in making her leaf-vein embroidery?
A. Finding cloth with vein-like texture. B. Creating a new embroidery pattern.
C. Changing leaves into unbreakable cloth. D. Softening up leaves for better flexibility.
26. Which of the following best describes Yang Li?
A. Ambitious and innovative. B. Caring and patient.
C. Persistent and demanding. D. Humorous and optimistic.
27. What is the text mainly about?
A. An embroidery skill. B. A promising career.
C. A cultural shop. D. An admirable artisan.
C
