How to make a cartoon
First, you need to decide on some basic ideas for a story.
This story is about a robot, Han. He always forgets things.
One day, Han meets his friends Sarah and Tim at the underground station. He says, "I'm happy. I bought a new notebook. Now I won't forget things.
Sarah says, "Yes. I have one too. Here it is."
Tim asks, "Where's yours, Han "
Han says, "Oh, no! I forgot to bring it!"
In the second stage, think about the kinds of characters you want and what they will look like.
Han is a tall robot. He has square eyes They are actually video cameras. Tim wears glasses, so he looks clever. Sarah is a pleasant girl. She has straight, black hair.
Now make a rough sketch of the story.
首先，你需要决定一个故事的一些基本想法。
这个故事是关于一个机器人的，韩。他总是忘记事情。
一天，韩在地铁站遇见了他的朋友莎拉和蒂姆。他说：“我很高兴。我买了一本新笔记本。现在我不会忘记任何事情。”。
莎拉说：“是的，我也有一个。给你。”
蒂姆问：“你的呢，韩？”
韩说：“哦，不！我忘记带了！”
在第二阶段，考虑你想要的角色类型以及它们的样子。
韩是一个高大的机器人。他有一双方形的眼睛，实际上是摄像机。蒂姆戴眼镜，所以他看起来很聪明。莎拉是个讨人喜欢的女孩。她有一头直发。
Next, use a computer to draw detailed pictures and add colour. To make the characters and things appear to move, each picture should be made a little different from the one before it.
In the next stage, a computer program is used to put the pictures together as a film.
Finally, record the voices and sound effects. The actors will do the characters' voices. Their speech must match the pictures. Sound effects, like the noise of the underground, must also be added separately.
After everything has been checked, the cartoon is ready to be played for everyone to enjoy.
现在把这个故事大致描述一下。
接下来，使用计算机绘制详细的图片并添加颜色。为了让人物和事物看起来像是在移动，每张图片都应该与之前的图片略有不同。
在下一个阶段，一个计算机程序被用来把这些图片组装成电影。
最后，录制声音和音效。演员们将表演角色的声音。他们的演讲必须与图片相符。声音效果，比如地下的噪音，也必须单独添加。
检查完所有内容后，这部动画片就可以播放给大家欣赏了。

At the opening ceremony of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, Tai Chi performers impressed the whole world. A total of 2,008 performers stood in a large circle and moved slowly and calmly in their white silk uniforms.
Tai Chi has always been a symbol of Chinese culture and is becoming popular around the world. According to Xinhua, this ancient martial art is practised by over 100 million people in more than 150 countries. It was added to UNESCO’s Intangible Cultural Heritage List in 2020.
Tai Chi is popular because it’s good for health. As you move, you breathe deeply and naturally, and you pay attention to your body, just as in some kinds of meditation（冥想）. This helps you relax and find peace in your mind.
According to Harvard Health, Tai Chi is helpful for almost everyone, from healthy people to those getting better from illness. This is because its movements are relaxing.
What makes Tai Chi even more interesting might be the ideas behind it. The word “Tai Chi” comes from Taoism. It believes people’s movements should be slow and soft. It is not used to fight an enemy, but it is used to protect yourself. That doesn’t mean it is weak. The principle（原则）of Tai Chi is to use softness to beat hardness.
Tai Chi also pays attention to harmony（和谐）between yin and yang. For example, if you work too hard and feel tired, you have too much “yang”. So it is time for you to calm down and get more “yin”. This idea of keeping a healthy balance can be used to do many things in life. It makes Tai Chi famous all around the world.

A. It is only helpful for healthy people.
