       What can kites do for us? You might think they are just for fun,but kites can do a lot more.        Picture taking： In the 1880s,when there were no airplanes,people used kites to take photos from the air. Those kites carried cameras. People on the ground lit the fuse (導(dǎo)火索) that was tied to the kite. That released the shutter ( 快打開門) . Once people used them in war. In this way,they got to know more about their enemies.

       Science studies： In the early 1900s,scientists from the United States put science instruments into kites. They used them to learn about the weather.

       Life saving： Once some lifeboats on ships from the United States had kites on them. They could send radio messages from the kites. This made it much easier to find people lost at sea.

       Fishing： In Asia,people have been using kites for fishing for hundreds of years. Fishing with a kite is far better than you might think. Using a kite,you can place the hook (魚釣) further away. You can also put it into the water slowly so it will not scare (驚嚇) the fish.

       Advertising： Advertisements aren’1 just on TV. They can also be on kites!These kites usually carry the name of a product or a company. Advertising kites come in many shapes and bright colours. Some even look like the products!
