Question
[111]. Read the following passage carefully:
Passage: "A potter's kiln is a lesson in patience. Clay pots are placed inside, the fire is lit slowly, and the temperature is raised step by step. If the fire is rushed, pots crack; if it is too weak, they stay soft. The potter watches colour, not clock alone: the glow tells him when the pots are ready. Good pottery, like good teaching, cannot be rushed." Why must the fire be raised step by step?
