Today, there are countless exciting ways to have fun. Every day, there seems to be something new and interesting to do. A lot of entertainment today depends heavily on modern technology. Can you imagine how people in ancient times had fun? In fact, many ancient forms of entertainment survive to this day. People have given new life to these activities, so that people of all ages can still enjoy them. Among them, flying kites is one of the most popular ones.
Kites have a long history in China. According to one legend（传说）, the famous Chinese thinker Mozi created a flying “wooden bird”. Later, people used bamboo to take the place of wood, and covered the bamboo frame（框架）with paper. This was the birth of the “paper kite”. At first, kites were mostly used by the army. They were used to send messages and test the wind. Slowly, people used them more and more for fun. By the time of the Tang Dynasty（618－907 CE）, kites became a popular toy all around China.
Flying kites not only links us to our ancestors, but also gives people a way to express creativity. Every year, kite fliers from all over the world come to the Weifang International Kite Festival in Shandong Province’s Weifang City. The city has been known as the “kite capital of the world”. During the festival, thousands of kites fill the sky. There are both traditional kites like birds and fish, and modern ones like TV and comic characters. Some kites can be over 200 metres long. They fly into the sky in the shape of dragons, spaceships and even high-speed trains.
