    Once there was a famine (饥荒) in the town. A rich and kind baker(面包师) sent some bread to twenty of the poorest children. He said to them, "In this basket there is some bread for you. Each of you can have one loaf(一条面包) every day until the hard days end.

    The impatient children couldn't wait to gather around the basket. They shouted and fought for the bread because each wished to have the largest loaf. At last they went away without even thanking the good gentleman. But Shirley, a poorly-dressed little girl, did not join them. Instead, she remained standing modestly in the distance. When the other children had left, she took the smallest left in the basket, kissed the gentleman's hand and went home.

    The next day the children were as rude as before. Poor shy Shirley still took the smallest loaf. When she got home, her mother cut the bread open. Many new shining pieces of silver fell out of it. Her mother was very surprised and said, "Take the money back to the good gentleman at once, for it must have got into the loaf by accident. Be quick, Shirley! Be quick!"

    But when the little girl gave the rich man her mother's message, he said, "No, no, my child. It was no mistake. I put silver pieces into the smallest loaf to reward you because you are a kind and honest girl. Go home and the money is yours now."

Yang Hongwei born in 1966.is a keeper of the Weifang kite-making skill.Born into a kite-making family.Yang often saw kites with bright colours and different shapes in her grandfather's workshop.

Yang learned the skill from her grandfather at the age of 16.After practising the skill for 10 years,she started her own shop in 1992

"Many places around the world have a tradition of flying kites."Yang said."But I think the cultural background behind our kites is unique."

On Yang's kites, people can see not only common designs like butterflies and birds,but also some prints telling Chinese history.For example.she once made a kite showing a phoenix(凤凰)that was lined with portraits(肖像)of 50 famous women from Chinese history on each side.

Yang said that each woman is different in look,clothes and make-up style.To create their portraits,she made lots of effort to check historical records and talk about details with experts.

"It took me a lot of time,"Yang said,"but when I explain the stories of the kites to foreign people,I feel a great sense of achievement."

In her free time,she travels to different countries including Germany,Australia,the United States and New Zealand to tell people stories of Chinese kites and the traditional ways they are made."It is an important job of mine to spread our heritage(遗产)around the world and onto our children,"she said.
