问题    Jianzhi is the first type of paper cutting design, since paper was invented by Cai Lun in the Eastern Han Dynasty in China. The art form later spread to other parts of the world with different regions adopting their own cultural styles. Because the cut-outs are mainly used to decorate doors and windows, they are sometimes referred to as "chuānghuā" , meaning window flower.

    【R1】______According to the present archaeological records, it originated from the 6th century, however people believed that its history could be traced as early as the Warring States Period (around the 3rd century BC), long before the paper was invented. At that time, people used thin materials, like leaves, silver foil, silk and even leather, to carve hollowed patterns for beauty. Later, when paper was invented, people realized that this material was easy to cut, store and discard. Thus paper became the major material for them to use, and they habitually called this artistry paper-cutting, or Jianzhi in Chinese. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties (around 1368 -1911), this artistry witnessed its most prosperous period.
