Fun Flute Trivia #1

It was initially my plan to post some Thanksgiving flute trivia for everyone to participate in, but I got a bit side tracked in my quest for interesting Thanksgiving flute facts, and decided to post this for all of you instead!!

As some of you know, during the Christmas Holidays almost 2 years ago, I was in China performing. We had performances all over China, and it was an absolutely incredible experience. One of my favourite souveniers is this flute!
To listen to how this type of flute sounds, click here for to hear a piece entitled "Morning", performed be flutist Jan Yung-Ming. You can also click here to listen to Master Chen Tao perform a fantastic piece called "Birds Amid Tree Shadows".

And now for the fun trivia, here is my question for you!

Which of the following is the name for a chinese flute?

a) dizi
b) qudi
c) bangdi
d) yudi
e) tiedi
