阅读短文,回答下列问题。
Most children have wonderful toys to play with. Usually, their parents buy these toys for them, often as Christmas or birthday gifts. Some children buy small toys with their pocket money. But instead of buying toys, one fun way to get new toys is to make them.
The easiest toy to make is a kite. For a kite, all you need is a large piece of paper, two sticks, some pieces of string and some glue. Take the two sticks and use the string to fix them together in the centre. Then take a string and tie it to the ends of the sticks to make a string square(正方形). Cut the paper to make it the same size as the square. Finally, stick the paper to the string square with glue. Now your kite is finished. All you need to do is to tie a long string to the kite so you can fly it. In many countries, there are kite competitions. Hundreds of people come together to show off their kites. In one famous competition, some of the kites are more than three metres tall. They need many strong men to fly them and people use rope instead of string.
