Do you like wearing colorful clothes?Today,we can get colorful clothes easily.But how about
people in old times?
Tie-dye (is a very old way of dyeing clothes in China.It's more than 1,000 years old.
People in the past made it by hand.
To tie-dye,you first need to use thread (to tie your cloth together.Then you put the cloth
into the dye.Some parts of the cloth will become dark blue,while other parts will be lighter in color.
When you open out the cloth,you'll see beautiful patters.
In2OO6,the tie-dye skill became China's national intangible cultural heritage(国家级非物质文

Yang Cheng,52,learned to tie-dye from his mother in the 1980s.Now he is still doing the job
and has taught his daughter this skill.Yang continueed the old skill of tie-dye.At the same time,he
studied new tie-dye skills in other countries,such as Japan,India and France.
Yang once made two sets of tie-dyed special dresses.It took him about two years.He used many
skills of Anning tie-dye to finish them.Some patters on the dresses are traditional,while some are
modern."I want to put all the beautiful things into tie-dye works."he said.
Yang now teaches tie-dye in many places.More than 100,000 people have learned from him.

·32·Let's take paper-making as an example.Chinese
person Cai Lun improved the technology of paper-making
in 105 AD.Since then,paper had been used widely in
China.But before that,people could not make paper
easily.Thanks to this traditional skill,we can have
different kinds of paper to use now.
Without the traditional skills,we would not have the
modern technology.So traditional skills are really important.

As the name shows,a folding fan can be folded,
making it very convenient to carry.Making a folding fan
requires materials like paper,silk and bamboo.Folding
fans are usually decorated with paintings and calligraphy;
we can see the fan's beauty and cultural meaning.Folding
fans are not only used for cooling down during hot weather
but also regarded as pieces of art.You can buy one for
yourself or as a gift for your family if you like it.
