No one knows when the first kite was made. The first record of a kite was more than 2,000 years ago in China. Han Xin, the leader of an army, wanted to bring down a king. He decided to dig a tunnel (隧道) into the king’s palace. He flew a kite over the wall of the palace to make sure the length (长度) of its string (线). In this way, he could determine how long the tunnel should be. His men in the tunnel took the kite string with them. When they reached the end of the string, they knew to dig up.
Kites have been flown in Japan for hundreds of years. In the 1700s，kites were flown in autumn to give thanks for a good harvest. They were also flown to send good wishes to couples who had their first son. Today in Japan, kites are often flown as part of a celebration, such as the beginning of a new year. And kite festivals are held each year in many parts of the country.
Kites have been used for scientific purposes in the western world. In 1752, Benjamin Franklin tied a key to a kite and flew in a storm to find out that lightening was a form of electricity. In the 1890s, Lawrence Hargrave invented the box kite to test ideas about flight. From 1898 until 1933, the United States Weather Bureau (气象局) used box kites to collect weather data. The Wright brothers also experimented with kites. What they learned helped them make the first airplane flight in 1903.
( ) 1. Why did Han Xin want to dig a tunnel
A. To pull down the palace. B. To fight against the king.
C. To search for the king's treasure. D. To find out the length of the kite string.
( ) 2. What’s one of the purposes of flying kites in Japan

B. To express good wishes to the first born daughter.
C. To celebrate the beginning of a new year.
D. To hold kite festivals all over the county.
( ) 3. When did the United States Weather Bureau begin to use box kites
A. In 1752. B. In 1898. C. In 1903. D. In 1933.
( ) 4. What would be the best tittle for the text
A. The History of Kites B. The Experiments of Kites
C. The Invention of a Kite D. The First Record of a Kite
B
A. As society develops, fewer and fewer people learn this skill. B. In the Song Dynasty, it was the decoration of the gifts. C. Simple patterns are cut with a knife. D. So it is often found in weddings or festivals in China. E. Learners only need a knife and some paper. F. Paper cutting has changed from decoration to a kind of art.
