If we look for a plant that stands for Chinese culture,many might come to our minds.But if
we also need the plant to be very useful,bamboo is probably the best choice.
Bamboo is everywhere in Chinese people's lives.In the past,people used it to make books,
pens,walking sticks and so on.Bamboo shoots are a popular food.Even now,bamboo is used to
make many everyday things like chopsticks,baskets,hats,cages and flutes ()The word
"bamboo"covers many parts of ancient people's lives.The scientist Joseph Needham even called
Asian culture“the bamboo civilization(文明)”

bamboo.The great poet Li Bai liked bamboo very well.After the Song Dynasty,bamboo became a
symbol of the good gentleman.Su Shi,a famous writer,praised bamboo as the gentleman in many
of his poems and paintings.
Bamboo is very important to music in China.Many traditional Chinese wind instruments
were made from bamboo.Some experts think the first bamboo instrument might have started from
burning bamboo.When bamboo burns,the air inside expands.creating a loud noise.Maybe this
gave people the idea for inventing the simple bamboo flute.Today,there are still many types,like
very long flutes played by several people together,very short ones only 4-5 cm long,special ones
with only one hole,and paired flutes used in Yunnan
In a word,from the flute to new instruments in modern bands,bamboo's clean sound has
sounded through Chinese history for centuries.
