Every first lady since Lou Hoover (except Bess Truman) has appeared in the high-fashion magazine, Vogue. But Mrs. Obama is only the second to appear on the cover. She appeared wearing a pink silk dress by Jason Wu. When she was interviewed by the editor of Vogue, Mrs. Obama said what she wears is always paid attention to by many people. “I'm not going to pretend that I don't care about it.” she said.

However, Mrs. Obama did choose outfits for the Vogue photos from labels(商标) she had worn before. “She doesn't need any help.

Angela Chang (张韶涵) didn't know it would be so hard to turn singing into a career (事业). She went to many different record companies. But she was always turned down for looking too young and small.
“I'd never had such difficulties before,” Chang said. But Chang's talent was finally accepted in 2002. When she got a piece of work, she cried.
She soon became a star. Her first album Over the Rainbow sold very well. She won many awards.
“You wouldn't believe such a beautiful voice could come from such a small body,”said one musician after hearing Chang sing. “She has a special voice. You can't forget it.”
But the 25-year-old girl has other talents too. Chang is also an actress. She has played a role in the popular TV plays, My MVP Valentine and At Dolphin Bay. Many people remember her common-girl parts in the plays. But acting is difficult. Chang once acted so badly that she was nearly fired (解雇). Another time it took her 27 tries to get a scene (一场戏) right.
“I cried when I got back home,” Chang said. “But I knew that I wouldn't always fail. You only fail when you give up.”
Now with four albums behind her - Over the Rainbow, Aurora, Pandora and Flower in the Wonderland, it's clear that Chang and music were made for each other. As she sings in one song, “I have a pair of invisible wings (隐形的翅膀). They fly me to the skies and give me hope.”

     One day a poor farmer was taking a bag of wheat to town. Suddenly the bag fell off his horse onto the road. He did not know what he could do about it because it was too heavy for him to lift by himself. He only hoped that someone would soon pass by and lend him a hand.
    Just at his moment, a man riding a horse came up to him. But the farmer felt disappointed when he saw who he was. It was the great man who lived nearby. He thought the great man wouldn't help him, and hoped another farmer would come up. But to his surprise, the great man got off his horse as soon as he came near, “I see you need help,” he said, “I'm here just at the right time. ” Then he took one end of the bag and the farmer took the other, They lifed it together and put it on the horse.
    “Sir,” asked the farmer, “how can I pay you?”
    “It's quite easy,” the great man answered, “when you see anyone else in trouble, do the same for him. ”

    Once there was a forest where all the animals lived happily together. One day a family went to spend the day in the forest, and the son left his socks there. After the family left, a bear came by, found the socks, and decided to try them on. They fit so well, and he liked them so much that he wouldn't take them off.
    All the animals talked about the bear's new look. Soon, in that forest, there began appearing squirrels in shirts, rabbits in shoes, and even rats (老鼠) wearing hats! The forest doctor shook his head, telling animals, "This can't be good. Animals don't need clothes!" But no one listened to him. They said he was just out of fashion.
    However, it wasn't long before the first results of fashion-fever came. Several times the squirrel caught his shirt on trees, stopping him in mid-jump and sending him falling to the ground from a tree. The rat couldn't go into his hole without taking off his hat first. Even the bear, because of his socks, slipped（滑到） from the river rock and almost killed himself.
    When the animals came to see the doctor, he gave them all the same advice, "Take off those clothes before one day they're going to kill you." Those who listened to the doctor's advice stopped having accidents. And the animals realized that they didn't need clothes at all. Starting to wear them had been very dangerous, and they had only done it to make others admire them, and to get attention.

In China, it's common to see people on the streets using their fans(扇子) to beat the heat in summer. However, the traditional Chinese fan is not just a tool for cooling down, but a symbol of traditional Chinese culture.

The history of Chinese fans goes back to the Shang Dynasty (朝代) ( about 1600 B. C~1046 B. C). One of the earliest fans was known as Shanhan. It was a bit like today's umbrella. It tried to keep people away from the strong sunshine and rainfall. Later, Shanhan developed into a long- handled fan called Zhangshan(障扇).

In fact, the fan was not used to help people cool down until the Zhou Dynasty. At that time, fans were usually made of birds' feathers and mainly used by the emperors. Later, bamboo fans and cattail- leaf fans(蒲扇) were invented during the Han Dynasty. Both were most popular among the common people during the Song Dynasty.

Years later, the folding fan was introduced. It soon became popular. However, the best thing of a folding fan was the pictures on it. If a famous person painted the fan, it could cost a lot of money. For example, a folding fan painted by Zhang Daqian was sold for$252,000. Qi Baishi and Xu Beiho ng were also well known.

Throughout history, Chinese fans have stood the test of time. Today, there are more than 500 kinds of fans in China, attracting a great number of fan lovers both at home and abroad. However, it's difficult to carry on our traditional skills of making fans among young people now for many reasons. Luckily, Tag Design madea meaningful try. It developed an app " Folding Fan" which introduces the skills for making traditional folding fans. With the help of technology, these fan- making skills are surely able to stay alive forever.
