You may think that you cannot live through summer without air conditioners.But in ancient China,hand fans were a lmostlmost(1)the only way for people to drive the heat away.Chinese people started to use hand fans over 2,000 years ago.The fans came in different s hapeshapes(2),such as round and square.They were also made from all kinds of materials.Palm(棕櫚樹) leaf fans were c heapheap(3)and easy to make.Feather fans showed the o wner'swner's(4)high status(地位).Sandalwood(檀香)fans could send out a sweet smell.Later,hand fans became far more than just something that could cool you down.They developed into art w orksorks(5),in which Tuanshan(round fans)and Zheshan(folded fans)were the most common.
In the shape of a full moon,Tuanshan were usually m adeade(6)of silk.They had beautiful birds and flowers on them.Women,e speciallyspecially(7)those in the imperial palace (皇宮),liked to use them.Poets in ancient China often compared a woman's unlucky life to tuanshan.Nalan Xingde w roterote(8)during the Qing Dynasty, "If only life were as beautiful as when we first met,why should the autumn wind bother to pity deserted fans?"
Meanwhile,men,especially the literati(文人),used Zheshan.The literati liked them b ecauseecause(9)Zheshan were usually made of paper and they could paint and write poems on them.It was a way for them to show off their ability in literature,painting and handwriting.Almost a nythingnything(10)could be painted on Zheshan.
Today,Chinese people still use these fans,though not many people write or paint on them any more.Next time when you are waving a fan,you may think of the stories behind it.
