Flying kites — a popular hobby
People have been making and flying kites for about 2,000 years. No one knows for sure who invented the kite. Some historians (历史学家) believe the ancient Chinese might start the kite flying 2,000 years ago. And now it is still a popular hobby in China, Japan, Korea and other countries of the Far East where beautifully decorated kites appear in different colors. In China, there is even a special Kites Day on which children and adults fly kites. In Japan, families fly fish kites on Children's Day, May 5th.
Simple kites are made by crossing two sticks and covering them with paper or cloth. And then people put a string at the end.
Kites are made in many different sizes, colors and shapes. A flat kite is the oldest and simplest type of kite. It flies because air flows over and under the kite's wings. The pressure under the wings helps the kite lift into the air.
Today most people fly kites as a hobby. Kite festivals are organized in many parts of the world.

Father’s Day has a very short history. It was started because there was a mother’s Day, and just because some Americans thought that if we had a Mother’s Day, we should also have a Father’s Day. Father’s Day has become important in North America. And businessmen found it was a good way to get people to buy a present for the fathers from their shops.
By the way, very few countries have a Father’s Day, though some have Children’s Day, or a special day for boys and another for girls. More and more countries are having Mother’s Day, so maybe Father’s Day will become popular before too long. Now, what do people in North America do on Father’s Day The newspapers, radios, and TV tell children what they should buy Father’s Day presents for their fathers. They even tell a wife to buy a Father’s Day present----not for her father but for her husband, even if(即使) he is not a father. And they tell grandchildren to buy a present for their grandfathers.

Flying kites — a popular hobby
People have been making and flying kites for about 2,000 years. No one knows for sure who invented the kite. Some historians (历史学家) believe the ancient Chinese might start the kite flying 2,000 years ago. And now it is still a popular hobby in China, Japan, Korea and other countries of the Far East where beautifully decorated kites appear in different colors. In China, there is even a special Kites Day on which children and adults fly kites. In Japan, families fly fish kites on Children's Day, May 5th.
Simple kites are made by crossing two sticks and covering them with paper or cloth. And then people put a string at the end.
Kites are made in many different sizes, colors and shapes. A flat kite is the oldest and simplest type of kite. It flies because air flows over and under the kite's wings. The pressure under the wings helps the kite lift into the air.
Today most people fly kites as a hobby. Kite festivals are organized in many parts of the world.

Father’s Day has a very short history. It was started because there was a mother’s Day, and just because some Americans thought that if we had a Mother’s Day, we should also have a Father’s Day. Father’s Day has become important in North America. And businessmen found it was a good way to get people to buy a present for the fathers from their shops.
By the way, very few countries have a Father’s Day, though some have Children’s Day, or a special day for boys and another for girls. More and more countries are having Mother’s Day, so maybe Father’s Day will become popular before too long. Now, what do people in North America do on Father’s Day The newspapers, radios, and TV tell children what they should buy Father’s Day presents for their fathers. They even tell a wife to buy a Father’s Day present----not for her father but for her husband, even if(即使) he is not a father. And they tell grandchildren to buy a present for their grandfathers.
