When talking about handicrafts, I’d like to share with you my experience of making paper-cut. Paper-cut is a traditional folk art in China and it’s been very popular in some ruralareas. It is paper cut into different shapes and patterns and then pasted on windows as decorations on festive occasions, such as the Spring Festival or a Wedding ceremony. I first learned to make paper- cut in primary school when making paper-cut was part of the extracurricularactivities. The process isn’t very complicated and doesn’t take long. Well，you need a piece of red-coloured paper, a pair of scissors and a pencil. Second, draw a certain pattern or write down some Chinese characters, such as “XI, OR FU ”that represent the auspiciousnessin our culture on the folded paper. Then use the scissors to cut the paper according to the pattern.When you open it up.Ta-da, you will find out a very beautiful pattern in the centre is right in front of your eyes. Finally , paste the pattern of “FU or XI” to the front-door upside down, which means the fortuneand bliss are coming. It is a very good practice for creativityand hands-on skills.

如何解决这个问题
Go cold turkey and never light up another cigarette. It will be tough, but it is the smartest thing smokers ever did in their lives. (直接停止吸烟。Cold Turkey作为一个俗语，它的意思可不是冷火鸡肉。Cold turkey作为俗语的意思是指一些人突然终止某种已经成隐的习惯，如非法吸毒、酗酒或抽烟等.)
Ween yourself off is the best. Cold turkey will just drive you back to smoking, because it will drive you crazy so fast, you'll want one, and you're hooked again. Just start off with a number, and work your way down each week until you hit zero.(慢慢戒，循序渐进，逐步递减数量：Ween off ) THINK OF family members every time they want to smoke. According to psychologists one way of changing is motivation. If people have strong motivation to change, change will likely to happen to you.(精神胜利法)
Stay busy, because your hands and your mind is too used to having them filled with a cigarette. Hard candies work well too. (分散注意力法。使自己忙起来。)
Psyche yourself to the point that smoking will never be an option for you--that it is detrimental to your lifestyle and your loved ones. But watch your temper--you can lose it quickly during the throes of quitting.(精神胜利法)
