Turning Pencil Tips into Dedicate Sculptures At his home in Egypt, 30-year-old Ibrahim Bilal displayed different sculptures (雕刻品) made with pencil tips (尖端). The man started to do this four years ago after watching videos of a Chinese artist carving pencil lead (铅笔芯) into sculptures. Through Ibrahim’s hands, landmarks across the world such as the Eiffel Tower in Paris and famous people like European footballer and Liverpool Mohamed Sarah appear on the pencil tips. The size of each sculpture is no more than 6 mm and each takes about 10 hours to finish. __________________ Colorful felt (毛毡) lowers have been “planted” at different street corners throughout Guangzhou, Guangdong Province.

Can you live through the hot summer without an air conditioner Maybe your answer is “No!” But how did people in ancient China drive the heat away Hand fans were almost the only help.
China has been making hand fans for more than 3,000 years. Hand fans came in different shapes, such as round and square. They were also made of different kinds of materials. The earliest form of fans was the feather fans in the Shang Dynasty. Cattail leaf fans（蒲扇）were cheap and easy to make and they were the most useful kind for everyone. Sandalwood fans（檀香扇）could send out a sweet smell.
Later, hand fans became far more than just something that could cool people down. They developed into artworks, in which round fans and folding fans were the most common.
Round fans were usually made of silk. They had beautiful embroidery（刺绣）on them. Women liked to use them. In ancient China, people often compared a woman’s deserted life to round fans, for fans are no longer needed when summer is over. Nalan Xingde once wrote, “If only life were as beautiful as when we first met, why should the autumn wind bother to pity deserted painted fans ”
People used folding fans. Because folding fans were usually made of paper and they could paint and write poems（诗词）on them. It was a way for them to show off their talents.
Today, Chinese people still use these fans. So the next time you use a fan, you may think of the stories behind it.
61. What can we know from paragraphs 2 and 3
A. Round fans were made of paper.
B. Sandalwood fans were very easy to make.
C. Cattail leaf fans were very popular with people.
D. Hand fans were only used to drive the heat away.

63. Why is the poem in paragraph 4 mentioned
