Even though it is very funny, a good cartoon is always based on close observation of a particular feature of life and usually has a serious purpose.</span></span></span></p><p> <span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'"><span style="color: black">C</span><span style="color: black">a</span><span style="color: black">r</span><span style="color: black">t</span><span style="color: black">oons in the West have been associated with political and social matters for many years. In wartime, for example, they proved to be an excellent way of spreading propaganda. Nowadays cartoons are often used to make short, sharp comments on politics and governments as well as on a variety of social matters. In this way, the modern cartoon has become a very powerful force in influencing people in Europe and the United States.</span></span></span></p><p><span style="color: black"> <span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'">Unlike most American and European cartoons, however, many Chinese cartoon drawings in the past have also attempted to educate people, especially those who could not read and write. Such cartoons about the lives and sayings of great men in China have proved extremely useful in bringing education to illiterate and semi-literate people throughout China. Confucius, Mencius and Laozi have all appeared in very interesting stories presented in the form of cartoons.

Often, there is nothing to laugh at when you see Chines cartoons. <strong>This </strong>is not their primary aim. In addition to commenting on serious political and social matters, Chinese cartoons have aimed at spreading the traditional Chinese thoughts and culture as widely as possible among the people.</span></span></span></p><p><span style="color: black"> <span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'">Today, howerver, Chinese cartoons have an added part to play in spreading knowledge. They offer a very attractive and useful way of reaching people throughout the world, regardless of the particular country in which they live. Thus, through cartoons, the thoughts and teachings of the old Chinese philosophers and sages can now reach people who live in such countries as Britain, France, America, Japan, Malaysia or Australia and who are unfamiliar with the Chinese culture.</span></span></span></p><p><span style="color: black"> <span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'">Until recently, the transfer of knowledge and culture has been overwhelmingly from the West to the East and not vice versa.

At 30, I went to a college and did courses in History and English. It was an amazing experience. <strong>For starters, </strong>I was paying, so there was no reason to be late – I was the one frowning and drumming my fingers if the tutor war late, not the other way round. Indeed, if I could persuade him to linger for an extra five minutes, it was a bonus, not a nuisance. I wasn’t frightened to ask questions, and homework was a pleasure not a pain. When I passed an exam, I had passed it for me and me alone, not for my parents or my teachers.

For instance, when you’re older, you get less frustrated. Expericence has told you that, if you’re calm and simply do something carefully again and again, eventually you’ll get the hang of it. The confidence you have in other areas – from being able to drive a car, perhaps – means that if you can’t, say, build a chair instantly, you don’t, like a child, want to destroy your first pathetic attempts.

The important feature of all these[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE] [SIZE=4][FONT=Times New Roman][COLOR=black]ca[/COLOR][COLOR=black]r[/COLOR][COLOR=black]t[/COLOR][COLOR=black]oons is the joke and the element of surprise which is contained. Even though it is very funny, a good cartoon is always based on close observation of a particular feature of life and usually has a serious purpose.[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE] [SIZE=4][FONT=Times New Roman][COLOR=black]C[/COLOR][COLOR=black]a[/COLOR][COLOR=black]r[/COLOR][COLOR=black]t[/COLOR][COLOR=black]oons in the West have been associated with political and social matters for many years. In wartime, for example, they proved to be an excellent way of spreading propaganda. Nowadays cartoons are often used to make short, sharp comments on politics and governments as well as on a variety of social matters. In this way, the modern cartoon has become a very powerful force in influencing people in Europe and the United States.[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE] [COLOR=black] [SIZE=4][FONT=Times New Roman]Unlike most American and European cartoons, however, many Chinese cartoon drawings in the past have also attempted to educate people, especially those who could not read and write. Such cartoons about the lives and sayings of great men in China have proved extremely useful in bringing education to illiterate and semi-literate people throughout China. Confucius, Mencius and Laozi have all appeared in very interesting stories presented in the form of cartoons. The cartoons themselves have thus served to illustrate the teachings of the Chinese sages in a very attractive way.[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR] [COLOR=black][FONT=Times New Roman] [/FONT][/COLOR] [SIZE=4][FONT=Times New Roman][COLOR=black]I[/COLOR][COLOR=black]n this sense, many Chinese cartoons are different from Western cartoons in so far as they do not depend chiefly on telling jokes. Often, there is nothing to laugh at when you see Chines cartoons. [B]This [/B]is not their primary aim. In addition to commenting on serious political and social matters, Chinese cartoons have aimed at spreading the traditional Chinese thoughts and culture as widely as possible among the people.[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE] [COLOR=black] [SIZE=4][FONT=Times New Roman]Today, howerver, Chinese cartoons have an added part to play in spreading knowledge. They offer a very attractive and useful way of reaching people throughout the world, regardless of the particular country in which they live. Thus, through cartoons, the thoughts and teachings of the old Chinese philosophers and sages can now reach people who live in such countries as Britain, France, America, Japan, Malaysia or Australia and who are unfamiliar with the Chinese culture.[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR] [COLOR=black] [SIZE=4][FONT=Times New Roman]Until recently, the transfer of knowledge and culture has been overwhelmingly from the West to the East and not vice versa. By means of cartoons, however, publishing companies in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Singapore are now having success in correcting this [B]imbalance [/B]between the East and the West.[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR] [SIZE=4][FONT=Times New Roman][COLOR=black]C[/COLOR][COLOR=black]a[/COLOR][COLOR=black]r[/COLOR][COLOR=black]t[/COLOR][COLOR=black]oons can overcome language barriers in all foreign countries.

University students frequently do the[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE] [SIZE=4][FONT=Times New Roman][COLOR=black]mi[/COLOR][COLOR=black]nimum of work because they’re crazy about a good social life instead. Children often scream before their piano practice because it’s so boring. They have to be given gold stars and medals to be persuaded to swim, or have to be bribed to take exams. But the story is different when you’re older.[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE] [COLOR=black] [SIZE=4][FONT=Times New Roman]Over the years, I’ve done my share of adult learning. At 30, I went to a college and did courses in History and English. It was an amazing experience. [B]For starters, [/B]I was paying, so there was no reason to be late – I was the one frowning and drumming my fingers if the tutor war late, not the other way round. Indeed, if I could persuade him to linger for an extra five minutes, it was a bonus, not a nuisance. I wasn’t frightened to ask questions, and homework was a pleasure not a pain. When I passed an exam, I had passed it for me and me alone, not for my parents or my teachers. The satisfaction I got was entirely personal.[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR] [SIZE=4][FONT=Times New Roman][COLOR=black]S[/COLOR][COLOR=black]ome people fear going back to school because they worry that their brains have got [B]rusty. [/B]But the joy is that, although some parts have rusted up, your brain has learnt all kinds of other things since you were young. It has learnt to think independently and flexibly and is much better at relating one thing to another. What you lose in the rust department, you gain in the maturity department.[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE] [SIZE=4][FONT=Times New Roman][COLOR=black]I[/COLOR][COLOR=black]n some ways, age is a positive plus. For instance, when you’re older, you get less frustrated. Expericence has told you that, if you’re calm and simply do something carefully again and again, eventually you’ll get the hang of it. The confidence you have in other areas – from being able to drive a car, perhaps – means that if you can’t, say, build a chair instantly, you don’t, like a child, want to destroy your first pathetic attempts. Maturity tells you that you will, with application, eventually [B]get there[/B].[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE] [COLOR=black] [SIZE=4][FONT=Times New Roman]I hated piano lessons at school, but I was good at music. And coming back to it, with a teacher who could explain why certain exercises were useful and with musical concepts that, at the age of ten, I could never grasp, was magical. Initially, I did feel a bit strange, thumping out a piece that I’d played for my school exams, with just as little comprehension of what the composer intended as I’d had all those years before.
