Rebecca: The people dancing on stage are dressed in a peculiar way. Girls wear pink long gowns and boys are in tunic and boots. Are those traditional Chinese clothes?
麗貝卡：臺上跳舞的人穿著很奇特。女孩子都穿粉色長袍，男孩子穿束腰外衣和靴子。那是中國的傳統(tǒng)服飾嗎？
Zhang: They belong to the Uygur ethnic minority. China has 55 ethnic minorities. All have clothes of their own style.
張：那是維吾爾族的民族服裝。中國有55個少數民族，這些民族的服飾都有自己的風格。
Rebecca: 55! It must be very hard to tell them apart.
麗貝卡：55個少數民族！那一定很難區(qū)分吧。
Zhang: Not really. Clothes are an essential element of people's lives. They are formed in history and influenced by the climate, life style and religion of a people.
張：不是的。服飾是人們生活的重要部分，是在歷史中形成的，受到天氣，該民族的生活方式和宗教的影響。
Rebecca: Can you give me an example?
麗貝卡：你能舉個例子嗎？
Zhang: Of course. The Miao people, for example, are very skillful in handicraft； therefore they wear a lot of silver, like silver headgear and necklace. Their clothes are richly embroidered and the sleeves are tight. The Mongolian minority, on the other hand, has loose fitting long gowns with belts and boots, so that they can ride comfortably on horse.
張：當然啦。比如說苗族人就很擅長手工，所以他們穿戴很多銀飾，比如銀質頭飾，銀質項鏈。他們的衣服刺繡繁復，袖口窄。而蒙古族則穿寬大的長袍子，系腰帶，穿靴子，這樣騎馬才比較舒服。
Rebecca: I guess you are right.
麗貝卡：也許你說的沒錯。
