主題語(yǔ)境：文化遺產(chǎn) 篇幅：351詞 建議用時(shí)：7分鐘

巴黎以其豐富的藝術(shù)歷史和大量的博物館而聞名。然而這一次，眾人的焦點(diǎn)卻落在了其中一個(gè)展示中國(guó)非物質(zhì)文化遺產(chǎn)的展覽上。

1Paris, a city known for its rich art history and abundant museums, has once again proven itself as a cultural hot spot.However, this time, the spotlight fell on a lesser-known aspect of artistic tradition through an exhibition showcasing Chinese intangible cultural heritage.

2The Carrousel du Louvre played host to a fascinating display that not only featured contemporary paintings but also highlighted the art of paper-cutting, and Yi Dance.“We brought these Chinese artworks to the people because we wanted to find friendship and cooperation through art,”said Wang Yanting,leader of the exhibition.

3The traditional dance of the Yi people was a particularly powerful attraction at the exhibition.You Jinliang, the founder and president of Shenzhen Yi Dance Culture Research Institute explained,“Yi Dance is a symbol of ritual and musical civilization, a symbol of the Chinese culture of courtesy (禮儀)，and is one of the most precious spiritual treasures of our human civilization.We have brought Yi Dance to France in the hope that all human beings,modern human beings,will embrace this wisdom of ancient times.”

4Connecting ancient civilization with the modern world was also a key objective of Ya Ding, the president of the Association for the Development of France-China Exchange.Ya has been introducing interactive experiences to thousands of children in a bid to foster young talent and promote a deeper understanding of Chinese art and craftsmanship.“Famous painters are asked to make an unfinished painting and then we call on children all over the world to complete it.It's a co-creational game,”Ya explained.

5With a history dating back over 1600 years, paper-cutting continues to adorn homes and serve as cherished gifts.Tan Qing，a paper-cutting artist explained,“For me, no matter how well a work is done,it's just a technique.Only when it's infused with culture,it becomes a piece of art.Through paper-cutting, we open the door to intangible heritage and traditional Chinese culture.”Excitingly, another exhibition showcasing Chinese art and craftsmanship took place in Paris in November, further fostering cultural exchanges and understanding between France and China.
