We found it interesting that Chinese writing habit was changed.In ancient times，people used to write from right to left in vertical columns（豎列）.But now，we write from left to right in horizontal rows（橫行）.Why did this change？This has to do with writing tools and the habits of people.    Before paper was created，people wrote on bamboo slips（竹簡）.They were connected into one long passage.Then they were rolled up（卷起）.While opening a roll，people held it with their right hand and opened it with their left hand.So this made it possible to start writing from the right-hand side.    This writing habit also has something to do with social status（地位）.The top-right corner stood for high status，while the bottom-left corner stood for low status.    Near the end of the Qing Dynasty，some people began to spread the Western habit of writjye.aig.In 1917，Qian Xuantong wrote a letter to the leader Chen Duxiu.He suggested writing from left to right，following Western writing' habit.However，Chen didn't accept the idea.In the early 1950s，the Chinese writer Guo Moruo raised this suggestion again.    Gradually，newspapers and books were printed in horizontal rows.People got used to writing from left to right in rows.
