China is called the Kingdom of fans. Fans are everywhere in our daily life. But how much do you know about them?
It is said that fans were first used to cool the air during the Shang Dynasty. At that time, they were made of feathers, bamboo or silk. Some of them were round, while others were square.
Folding paper fans first became popular during the Song Dynasty. There were usually beautiful pictures on the fans. Some were mountains and rivers, others were flowers and animals. Many people, including Su Dongpo, a poet of the Song Dynasty, and Tang Bohu, a scholar of the Song Dynasty, even painted and wrote poems on fans. This made the fans into art works. Many rich and important people liked holding fans.
Today, fans are popular gifts. During the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, folding fans were given to leaders and officials from other countries, as well as audience members. While they were having their fans to get cool air, they were also experiencing Chinese culture.

When you see quite a beautiful girl on the street, which word will you use to describe the beauty of her? In Chinese, we may use these Chinese sayings as Chenyuluoyan or Biyuexiuhua. However, do you know where the sayings are ?
In Chinese ancient history, there four well-known beauties named Xishi, Wang Zhaojun, Diaochan and Yang Yuhuan. Here are two about Xishi and Wang Zhaojun.
Xishi lived during the Spring and Autumn period. One day, she to a river to wash silk with her friends. Some fish were swimming in the clear water. When the fish saw Xishi, they swam down to the bottom of the water . The fish were shocked by the beauty of Xishi and felt embarrassed of .
Wang Zhaojun lived during the Han Dynasty. The king of Han wanted to send her to the king of the enemy country as a gift. A few days later, Wang was on the way with a group of guards, something interesting happened. There was a wild goose above the head of Wang Zhaojun. It was so shocked by the beauty of Wang it even forgot to flap wings. Then it fell down heavily into the forest.
Nowadays, if a girl's beauty is overwhelming, we can say she is the one that "can make the fish sink and the wild goose ".
When I was fifteen years old, I became very interested in shopping. I had many things that I no longer needed at home. I knew with the help of my father, I could make money. For months and months I enjoyed myself by selling things on my dad's bank account.
On July 18th, 2015, I made my own account and began to start my own business. Things were going great and then I realized that selling things around the house wasn't enough for me. I went around to the yard sale and bought things at low prices and sold them at higher prices to make money.
Last October, I went to a yard sale that was a little bit different. A lady had many nice things to sell. Through the communication, I knew she was jobless at the moment and needed money to feed her family. I thought I could do it better and more quickly for her. So I made up my mind to help her out. She looked at me for a while and then said yes. When I gave her the money, she broke down into tears thankfully.
I know my skills could be used to help those in need and that even one small act of kindness could make a difference.

A. I bought all her things. B. So I decided to increase my business by running a re-sale shop. C. And I decided to stop my business. D. I went up to her and had a conversation with her. E. I have never felt so pleased to help someone in my life. F. After being just a buyer for a while, I wanted to sell something. G. After that I took away some of her things and over the next month I made $ 1,500 for her! |
Trees are one of the oldest "citizens" of our earth. They keep our air clean, reduce noise pollution, improve water quality and provide food and building materials.
Just like us, trees change a lot as they grow. At 1 to 3 years old, young trees learn how to grow up safely. For example, many trees grow thorns to warn animals not to go near. Most young trees have large, deep green leaves so that they can catch enough sunlight and change it into their food and energy.
When trees are 4 years old, they begin to grow very rapidly and become strong enough to face challenges later in life. At the age of 15, trees become young adults. They grow more slowly and begin to produce flowers and fruit.
It is not until the tree is 20 to 25 years old that it becomes a real adult. The tree reaches its largest size. The adult tree gives us shade, oxygen and natural beauty. It is also a great place for a tree house, or a place for us to read a book, listen to music and so on. If we give the adult tree proper care, it will go on to live healthily for many years.
Gradually, trees begin to grow older and older and even die. At this time, they still have their important place in nature. When a tree becomes hollow or part of it becomes dead, it provides a home for small animals and is a source of food for many other animals.
In many ways, the life of a tree is similar to our own life experience. When we are looking at the life of a tree, we learn that each period of life brings its own form of joy and challenge. Enjoy every minute of the life of the trees and look after the trees!
