伟大的工匠在社会和文明的发展中扮演着至关重要的角色。他们不仅掌握精湛的技艺,更极大地推动了文化的传承和创新。阅读下面的短文,了解伟大的工匠——潘启慧吧!
The Chinese are working hard to achieve their Chinese Dream. And now the model worker spirit and craftsman(工匠) spirit are very popular. Here is a story of a great craftsman.
Born in 1949, Pan Qihui was once a PE teacher. He was interested in writing with brushes and painting as a child. His hobbies had nothing to do with his job, but he never gave them up. He also had interest in collecting stamps and ancient coins. However, since he saw the micro-carving(微雕) artworks at an exhibition in the 1980s, he decided to study micro-carving.
In 1986, Pan wrote 100 letters to his 100 pen friends who also enjoyed collecting stamps and ancient coins to tell them he had decided to spend ten years studying micro-carving and promised to send each of them a micro-carving work. Then, he practised every night after work. Through hard work, he only spent five years achieving his dream.
Pan practises much and trains hard. He has set a goal for himself that he will create one amazing work every year. To make sure his hands remain stable(沉稳的), Pan has given up smoking and been living a healthy life. Pan says he loves micro-carving and will never give it up.
