As traditional Chinese art, paper cutting has a long history. The first and earliest paper cutting was found in China 1,500 years ago. But this traditional art is at risk of disappearing now. Luckily, Voyo Woo, a Chinese immigrant(移民)in America, is trying to bring this art back to life.
One Saturday in 2014, Ms Woo held a paper cutting show at a shopping center near Washington. She got much fun and peace doing it. She hoped more people would enjoy it.
Ms Woo began to study the art of paper cutting as a 14-year-old girl in her hometown in China. She said all the students at school had to learn paper cutting. But she had a deep love for it. So her teacher spent more time teaching her after class. Later, she won the second prize in a national painting and art competition. Ms Woo went to America after she finished collage in 2008. Soon after that, she took part in an activity to promote(宣传)Chinese paper cutting. And then she was invited to show the art in many important activities.“It is important to promote this art to Americans or anyone who is interested in it.Maybe it will make this art more popular.”Woo said.
From the art of paper cutting, people can know about Chinese cultural values, history and stories of people’s life. Ms Woo uses the art as a tool to show Chinese culture to people who know little about it. Chinese art is not only for Chinese, but also for people all over the world.

North American black bears are shy animals.They are fearful by nature,and will usually run away if they see or hear people.Because of this,it can be difficult for scientists to learn about these animals.
In order to study black bears,researchers from New Jersey,the USA,catch bears and use drugs to help them go to sleep.Researchers then work out the size and the weight of the bear,take blood to test for diseases,remove a tooth and take it to the lab to find out its age.From these studies,researchers want to find out how many bears live in New Jersey,how long they live,and how many babies they produce.
But in Minnesota,the USA,researchers study bears that are completely awake.The bears know the researchers’voices and they are not afraid of the research team.With the help of a few grapes to keep the bears busy,researchers can touch them to check their hearts,look at their teeth,and do other jobs.Researchers can also walk or sit with bears for hours and make videos to learn about their everyday lives.
