The oil paper umbrella is a traditional Chinese handicraft (手工艺品). It has a history of over 1,000 years in China. In early Tang Dynasty, it was introduced to Japan and Korea. Later oil paper umbrella s were spread to other Asian countries, such as Vietnam, Thailand and Laos, and each had its own style. However, as steel-ribbed (钢骨的) umbrellas appeared in the last century, oil paper umbrellas became less used in daily life. They were turned into decorative artifacts (装饰性工艺品).
Yuhang in Hangzhou is known for making oil paper umbrellas for more than 230 years. They are mainly made of skin paper, bamboo, a coating of Tung oil. They need to take more than 70 steps to make each umbrella. In 2008, these umbrellas were added to Intangible Cultural Heritage List of China (中国非物质文化遗产名录).
A young man called Liu Weixue learned the traditional art of making oil paper umbrellas from his grandfather. “I want to bring the art to life.” Liu said. He improved the umbrellas to win the hearts of young people. As the traditional paper was easy to break, he started to use a kind of thicker paper. In a test, his umbrellas were opened and closed for 1,000 times without breaking. He used a kind of lighter bamboo to make the umbrellas weigh less.
Now Liu hopes the art can be passed on. He goes to local schools to teach students. He also goes to events in different places to promote (推广) the art.

A．The history of oil paper umbrellas. B．The styles of oil paper umbrellas.

56．Why did Liu Weixue learn the art of making Yuhang oil paper umbrellas
A．Because he couldn’t find a better job. B．Because he wanted to bring the art to life.
C．Because young people liked the fashion. D．Because his grandfather told him to learn.
