The posters use the style of woodblock (木刻) New Year paintings, which are a form of intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) in China. Called nianhua in Chinese, this style of art began in the Western Han Dynasty.

“We think woodblock New Year paintings are treasures—their colors and patterns are beautiful,” Lin said. “We want to show that young people still like traditional culture. Protecting cultural heritage requires to breathe new life into it. So I tried to add something that young people like,” Liu said. “People love little cute animals, so Lin and I keep three cats.”

They used these cats as models. They designed a carpet (地毯) using the traditional “six children pattern”—six children making up a circle and sharing three heads—but the children were replaced with dogs and cats.

Their design got hundreds of “likes” on the website. But Liu and Lin don’t stop there. They are now planning another project that will include things borrowed from pictures in Dunhuang.

【推荐3】Today, it is very difficult for young graduates（毕业生）to get satisfying jobs. It's said that there are thousands of different kinds of jobs in the world. Choosing the right one itself is not easy.

“Finding a job” is not the same as “choosing a job”. Many young people end up in a job even though they are not suitable（适当的）for it. Sometimes “chance” may play a more important part than “decision”. Here are a few steps to help you think about jobs which you might enjoy doing after school or university.

First, it is important to realize what kind of person you are, which special qualities make you outstanding（杰出的）among people and what you are interested in. There is a difference between an interest and a skill. If you like art and enjoy looking at pictures, that is an interest. But if you can draw a horse, that is a skill.

Then ask yourself a question, “In the following three areas-skills with people, skills with information and skills with things, which are your best skills?”

After examining your skills, the next step is to research. To find out as many different kinds of jobs as possible, go to the library and read books, magazines and newspapers for information.

Ask your friends what they think of the work they do.
