【解析】

本文介紹了每周六西安附近的一個小城鎮(zhèn)會上演皮影戲。皮影戲是中國古代的一種藝術(shù)形式，如今不是像以前那樣流行了。皮影戲藝人們不介意錢多錢少，只是想讓這種傳統(tǒng)藝術(shù)一直富有活力。

【1】根據(jù)第一自然段末尾四個詞了解到皮影戲的說法是a shadow puppet play，由……制成be made(out)of(看得出來原材料)，由所在翻譯句的后一句看到皮革的說法leather，硬的hard。皮影是由硬的皮革制成。皮影這一類東西，不是指一個，用the+復(fù)數(shù)形式名詞體現(xiàn)，謂語動詞用are。注意首字母大寫，故答案為The shadow puppet plays are made (out) of hard leather.

【2】根據(jù)第二自然段第二句“…an object Each puppet is painted…bright colors…”可知，每個皮影被涂上明亮的顏色，be painted in+顏色。根據(jù)第三自然段第三句“Wang and his friends hold the puppets very close to the screen…the audience can see the puppets’ shadows clearly.”可知，把皮影舉得離屏幕近一點，所以觀眾們能看清。所以so，故答案為in/so。

【3】根據(jù)第三自然段第二句“The audience sit before the screen.”可知，觀眾坐在屏幕前。before在……前，in front of；根據(jù)最后一個自然段第一句“Wang and his friends often work very hard for little money, but they do not mind.”可知，盡管工作很辛苦，賺得不多，但是他們不介意。介意mind，care，故答案為in front of/care。

【4】根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二自然都第二句“…shadow puppet plays are not as popular as before”可知，皮影戲不是像以前一樣流行。轉(zhuǎn)換成比以前不流行，故答案為less/than。

【5】本文介紹了每周六西安附近的一個小城鎮(zhèn)會上演皮影戲。介紹了皮影戲藝人如何演，皮影戲過去和現(xiàn)在的流行程度。中心詞就是皮影戲。詞語首字母不大寫，注意單數(shù)可數(shù)名詞不單獨使用，所以用復(fù)數(shù)形式更為簡潔，故答案為shadow puppet plays。
