Shadow puppet play(皮影戲), also called “shadow

play”, is a traditional Chinese art of storytelling. Dramas were

played out in screen or walls for thousands of years to

parts of China during the Tang (618—907) and Song

(960—1279) periods.

Shadow puppets are made of hard leather(皮革). The

leather is cut out in the shape of a person, an animal or an

object. Each puppet is painted in bright colors and put on a stick. Different colors are used to

show good and bad of persons in the drama. Some puppets have movable arms and legs . They’re

reflected(反射，映出) on the white screen through the light.

Once a small boy lived on a farm which seemed so far away from everywhere.

He needed to get up before sunrise every morning to help his father on the farm. During sunrise he would take a break and climb up on the fence (籬笆) along the side of the farm. He could see a house with golden windows. "If they could afford golden windows, then there must be other nice things inside the house." He imagined how great it would be to live there. Then he promised himself, "Some day I will go there and see this wonderful place."

One morning, his father would go to the town and told him to stay at home for a rest. Knowing that this was his chance, he took a sandwich and headed across the field toward the house with the golden windows.

As the afternoon went on, he began to realize how wrong he was. The house was much farther than he had expected. As he went near the house, he saw no golden windows but instead a place in bad need of painting. A small girl very close to his age came out of the poor house and stood by the broken fence. He asked her if she had seen the house with the golden windows.

The girl said, "Sure, I know." and invited him to sit on the porch(門廊).As he sat there, he looked back from where he just came. There he saw the sunset(夕陽)turned the windows of his house to gold! Now he understood that everyone had his own house with golden windows.
