The story goes that during the Sui Dynasty，Emperor Yang came to Yangzhou three times.In winter，the flowers and trees in the garden became dry and weak.（2）The Emperor advised young women to cut the silk into the shape of flowers，leaves and grass and use them to make the trees and pools look more beautiful.Since then，"colorful cutting"has been a popular decoration art in Yangzhou.
    In the Tang Dynasty，（3）as paper-making was highly developed，tons of fine paper was produced. This helped the development of the paper-cutting art.At that time，people in Yangzhou had the custom of welcoming spring with paper-cutting.They would cut paper into different shapes of flowers，insects，coins and so on when spring comes.
    In the Qing Dynasty，thanks to the economy prosperity（经济繁荣），people in Yangzhou became interested in wearing fine clothing，especially embroidered（刺绣的） clothing.The embroidery patterns were based on paper-cutting，so many people made their living by the art of paper-cutting.（4）一个叫宝俊的人因其剪纸技艺而闻名。He won a high reputation（名声） as Magic Scissors.
    After the founding of PRC，Chinese government realized the importance of paper-cutting.In 2007，China Paper-cuts Museum opened to the public in Yangzhou.（5）从那时起，扬州的剪纸就变得越来越受欢迎。
