Widely used for thousands of years, Chinese fans not only are the perfect connection of use and beauty, but also show Chinese people’s high respect for their wonderful history and culture. With the development of history, there are many forms of fans.
The earliest Chinese fans, Zhang fan, which were big, appeared around the Shang Dynasty. The main use of them was to keep out the strong sun and protect people from the rain.
Although appearing in the Zhou Dynasty, feather (羽毛) fans weren’t loved by most people until the Three Kingdom Period. As is known to all, Zhuge Liang who was a smart and great man of Shu Han, was always holding a feather fan. The feather fan is a symbol of wisdom and appears in literature and paintings nowadays.
During the Han Dynasty, the cattail-leaf fans (香蒲扇) were invented. The cattail-leaf grew in the south and was a good material because it was not as expensive as feather fans. Even though it wasn’t beautiful, the cattail-leaf fan was popularized among common people soon.
In the Song Dynasty, fans in the shape of the moon, called “round” fan, became the favourite of young ladies. The fan was usually made of bamboo and white fine silk. Beautiful pictures were also embroidered (刺绣) on the face of the moon shaped fan. Its popularity even helped the development of painting itself. From the Song Dynasty on, fan painting became an independent art form.
34．How many forms of fans are mentioned in the text?
A．Two. B．Three. C．Four. D．Five.
35．The writer mentions the ________ of each form of fans.
A．use B．history C．material D．shape
36．What’s the main purpose of the text?
A．To spread Chinese painting culture. B．To increase the sale of Chinese fans.
C．To introduce Chinese traditional fans. D．To explain why fans are popular in China.

China Daily’s digital employee (员工) Yuanxi and Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes’ official virtual carto on character (敦煌莫高窟官方虚拟卡通人物) Jiayao together introduced an interactive digital platform (数字化互动平台) that hosts a virtual copy of the Mogao Grottoes’ Library Cave to the world.
The platform was developed together by the Dunhuang Academy (研究院) and the Chinese tech company Tencent. It uses gaming technologies to show the historical scenes of the Library Cave in the digital world.
The Library Cave in Mogao Grottoes was discovered in 1900, with more than 60,000 cultural relics (文物) from the 4th century to the 11th century undearthed (出土). It was one of the most important discoveries in the 20th century.
On the platform, visitors can role-play and “time travel” to ancient dynasties and talk with eight historical figures (人物). The public can enter the platform through the Digital Dunhuang website and its WeChat program.
In the digital age, the model of “culture + technology” is used to promote (促进) the development of Chinese culture. The digitalization rate (数字化率) of China’s valuable cultural relics has been more than 70 percent, according to the 2022 China Digital Collection Industry Research Report reported by iResearch.
Institutions (机构) such as the Palace Museum have also set up online digital services of their own.—Artificial intelligence (AI) technology allows the public to see the inside of the buildings through the Palace Museum’s WeChat program.
The Ministry of Culture and Tourism has also encouraged the development and transformation (转型) of cultural relics by digital ways. China Central Television has created a series of digital collections with different Dunhuang themes, such as the Dunhuang divine deer (神鹿) Youyou. It was created according to the image (形象) of the nine-colored deer from Dunhuang murals (壁画). The public can see the divine deer on CCTV’s own digital platform.
Digital collections cater to (迎合) the habits of young people. They not only protect the cultural relics but also bring the public closer to China’s “excellent traditional culture”, reported Dunhuang Art Institute.
Su Bomin, director of the Dunhuang Academy, told Xinhua that more efforts will be made to discover new forms for showing cultural relics and offer the public cultural experiences to develop Dunhuang culture.
