听力原文:Dye can bring a little color to life. Most clothing is colored with dyes. Modern, manufactured dyes can be costly. Natural dyes from plant and animal products have been used since ancient times. So this week, we describe a natural way to dye wool. The advice comes from information written by Jenny Dean of the Intermediate Technology Development Group in Britain. This anti-poverty group is now called Practical Action.There are several methods to put dye onto material. The vat method, for example, can be used to dye wool with onionskins. For this example, use 100 grams of natural wool. The wool must be clean. Leave it overnight in water and liquid soap. Then wash it with clean water that is a little warm. Gently squeeze out the extra water. A solution called a mordant is used in the dying process. A mordant helps fix the dye to the material. Traditionally, mordants were found in nature. Wood ash is one example. But chemical mordants such as alum are popular today. Alum is sold in many stores. It is often mixed with cream of tartar, a fine powder commonly used in cooking.

染料可以把一些带到生活中。大多数衣服用了染料。在现代，制造好的染料价格昂贵。植物和动物生产的自然染料从古代就开始使用了。所以这个星期，我们从一条自然的道路去描述染料毛皮。

有许多方法用染料来染衣服。例如，用染缸可以让染料染上衣服。运用这个方法，要用100个有自然衣料的染缸。这个衣料必须是干净的，把它浸泡在水和药水中整晚。然后用温暖的清水清洗它。轻轻地挤出多余的水。

一个叫做媒染的方法在染料加工中运用.媒染可以帮助把染料染到衣料上.传统地说,媒染是在自然中找到的.树脂就是一个例子.但是化学媒染,比如明矾,在现在很手欢迎.在许多商店都有出售明矾.它经常和焦油混合在一起,这种焦油是用与烹饪的好的普通粉末
