Traditional

Wang
Damin is a fisherman. Although he is over 65, he
is very fit
and still
enjoysworking.
Damin
uses
cormorants
to
catch fish. Cormorants
are large black
birds.
They
are
good
at
catching
fish
because
they
can
swim
well.
They can dive down and stay under the
water for up to two minutes.
Damin usually sets off in
the late afternoon and gets the
cormorants ready for work. First, he
ties a piece of grass around their
necks to stop them from eating big
fish. Then when Damin's boat
reaches
the right place in the river, he pushes them into
the river.
Damin
uses
several ways
to attract
fish. During the
day, he jumps Up
and down on his boat.
After dark, he hangs a Iight on a post at the
front
of the boat. The cormorants bring
the fish back to the boat. he fish are
then taken and thrown into a big basket
by Damin. No nets are required
for this
type of fishing.
Cormorant fishing was once practiced in
Iots of places in South-
East China, and
there were many fishermen in the area. But today,
few
young people are Interested In it.
In 50 years
,
perhaps there
will be
no more cormorant fishermen in
the world.
王大明是个渔夫。虽然他已经
65
岁了,但他很健康,仍然很喜欢工作。
大明使用鸬鹚捕鱼。鸬鹚是大型的黑色鸟类。它们善于捕鱼,因为它们能在水里游
得很好。他们可以潜水,在水下呆两分钟。
大明通常在下午晚些时候出发,让鸬鹚做好工作的准备。首先
,他把一根草绑在脖
子上,阻止它
们吃大鱼。然后,当大明的船到达河里适当位置的时候,他把它们赶到河
里。大明用几种方法来吸引鱼。白天,他在船上跳来跳去。天
黑以后,他在船前面的杆
上挂一盏
灯。鸬鹚把鱼带回到船上。然后,大明取下鱼,把它们扔进一个大篮子里。这
种捕鱼不需要鱼网。
鸬鹚捕鱼曾经在中国东南部的许多地方进行过,
而且这个地区有很多渔民。
但如今,
很少有年轻人对此感兴趣。
50
年后,世界上就再也不会有鸬鹚渔民了。

How to make a
cartoon
First, you need to
decide on some basic ideas for a story.
This story is about a robot, Han. He
always forgets things.
One
day,
Han
meets
his
friends
Sarah
and
Tim at
the
underground station. He
says,
Now I won

t forget
things.
Sarah
says,

“
Yes, I have one too. Here
it is.
Tim asks,
“
Where
’
s yours, Han?
”
Han
says,
“
Oh, no! I
forgot to bring it!
and what
they will look like.
In the
second stage, think about the kinds of characters
you want
Han is a tall
robot. He has square eyes. They are actually video
cameras. Tim wears glasses, so he looks
clever. Sarah is a pleasant girl.
She
has straight, black hair.
Now make a rough sketch of
the story.
Next, use a
computer to draw detailed pictures and add colour.
To
make the characters and things
appear to move, each picture should
be
made a little different from the one before
it.
In the next
stage, a computer program is used to put the
pictures together as a film.
Finally, record the voices and sound
effects. The actors will do

After
everything has been checked, the cartoon is ready
to be

如何制作动画片
首先,你需要确定一个故事的基本构思。
这个故事是关于一个机器人,汉。他总是忘记事情。
有一天,汉在地铁站遇见他的朋友莎拉和蒂姆。他说:
“我很高兴。我买了一个新
笔记本。现在我不会忘记事情。
”
莎拉说:“是的,我也有一个。就在这里。
”
蒂姆问,“你的汉子呢?”“
汉说:“哦,不!我忘记带了!
“
第二步,想好你想要的角色的性格类型和它们的样子。
汉是一个高大的机器人。他有一双方眼睛。它们实际上是摄像
机。蒂姆戴眼镜,所
以看起来很聪明。莎拉是个讨人喜欢的女孩。她有一头笔直的黑发。
现在草拟一下这个故事的草图。
接下来,使用计算机绘制详细图片并添加颜色。
为了使人物和事物看起来像是移动
的,每幅图画应该与之前的画有所不同。<
/p>
下一步,用一个计算机程序把把图片放在一起合成一部电影。
最后,录声及(制作)和音响效果。演员们要为人物配音。他
们的语言必须与图片
匹配。声音效果,像地铁的噪音,也必须单独增加。
在一切都被检查之后,动画片就可以播放了给大家欣赏了。
