    We can see fans(扇子) everywhere in our life. But how much do you know about them?

    China is named the kingdom of fans. It is said that fans were first used to cool the air during the Shang Dynasty. At that time, they were made of feathers, bamboo or silk. Some of them were round, while others were square.

    Folding paper fans first became popular during the Song Dynasty. There were usually beautiful pictures on the fans. Some were mountains and rivers, and others were flowers and animals. Many people, including Su Dongpo, a poet of the Song Dynasty, and Tang Bohu, a scholar of the Ming Dynasty, even painted and wrote poems on fans. This made the fans into art works. Many rich and important people liked holding fans.
