Paper-cutting is easy to learn but difficult to master. A good paper-cutter needs to have a steady hand and a creative mind. In the past, paper-cuttings were often used to decorate homes during festivals. For example, during the Spring Festival, people would put red paper-cuttings on windows, doors and walls to bring good luck. During weddings, paper-cuttings of double happiness (囍) were very popular. Today, paper-cutting is not only a decorative art, but also a symbol of Chinese culture. Many paper-cutting works have been shown in foreign countries, helping people around the world learn more about Chinese culture. Some paper-cutting artists also teach this skill to young people to pass it on. However, with the development of modern technology, fewer and fewer young people are willing to learn paper-cutting.

My favorite traditional culture is Chinese calligraphy. It has a long history and is a symbol of our cultural heritage. Protecting traditional culture is very important. It helps us remember our roots and pass down the wisdom of our ancestors. Without it, we will lose an important part of our identity. To protect traditional culture, I suggest our school set up calligraphy classes. We can also hold more cultural exhibitions to let more students know about traditional arts. Let’s work together to protect our precious cultural heritage! Thank you! 1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
