They began as a form of traditional art in the Tang and Song Dynasties in China and became popular in the Ming Dynasty. Long ago, they found their way to Japan and other Southeast Asian countries, and were well received.Chinese Fancy Knots there. Now they are taken as one of the most classic symbols of Chinese culture. As for the name itself, it is surely meaningful. The Chinese word for “knot”, jie, means “connection”. It is related to lots of cultural ideas—marriage, brotherhood, reunion, etc. Meanwhile, the pronunciation of the Chinese word jie is very close to that of ji, “good luck”. As a result, Chinese knots perfectly serve as a way to express people’s strong wishes for good things like joy, love and good luck.Besides, the knots, widely existing in the everyday life of the Chinese culture, come in different sizes. Small ones are connected to jewelry (珠宝), clothes, gift—packages and furniture in order to attract people’s attention, while large ones are used to decorate a living room or study. Whether large or small, there are over a dozen basic knot patterns (图案) named according to their shapes, usages or origins. For example, Double Coin Knots are called shuangqian Jie because they are in the shape of two ancient Chinese coins, meaning “good things come in pairs”. However, almost all the main styles of Chinese fancy knots are made up of two exactly similar parts, and the patterns on the front and the back sides are also similar in every detail.In addition, Chinese knots are famous for their bright colours. Each of the Chinese knots is made of a single string of cotton, silk, gold or silver. But the colours of the strings are rich and have different traditional cultural meanings. Among the most commonly used base colours, red means good luck and happiness, green means health, and yellow, which was once known as a emperor’s colour, may means wealth and honour.In brief, the famous Chinese fancy knots fully reflect (反映) the depth of Chinese culture. These brightly coloured knots of different patterns, with their endless chains of knots, mean that life on earth will continue forever.1．When did Chinese fancy knots become popular? __________________2．What does the Chinese character for “knot” mean? __________________3．Why do people express strong wishes with Chinese knots? __________________4．What are the main points about Chinese knots in Paragraph 3? __________________5．What do Chinese fancy knots fully reflect? __________________【答案】1．In the Ming Dynasty.2．It means “connection”.3．Because the pronunciation of the Chinese character jie is very close to that of ji, “good luck”.4．Their sizes, usages and patterns.5．The depth of Chinese culture.【短文分析】本文主要介绍了中国结的起源，作用以及意义。【答案解析】【第1题】根据第一段中的“They began as a form of traditional art in the Tang and Song Dynasties in China, and became popular in the Ming Dynasty.”可知，中国结在明代变得很受欢迎。故填In the Ming Dynasty。【第2题】 根据第二段中的“The Chinese word for ‘knot’, jie, means ‘connection’.”可知，“结”的中文意思是“连接”。故填It means “connection”.【第3题】根据第二段中的“Meanwhile, the pronunciation of the Chinese word jie is very close to that of ji, ‘good luck’.
