【鲜菇杂谈】雅思口语真题素材分享之传统服饰汉服
我觉得汉服比满族服饰好看，身材不够好不适合穿旗装改良后的现代旗袍，但是汉服就不一样了，大裙摆，长衫，身材缺陷无法暴露，又很飘逸潇洒。
记得多年前在英国读书的时候，一位年过七旬的英国老妇人问我：你为什么穿得像英国姑娘一样?休闲裤，帽衫。中国有什么传统服饰吗?比如印度女人穿纱丽，中东女人包头巾，在中国，大家都穿什么呢？
我很耐心地给这位奶奶解释了一下中国的传统服饰和中国人的穿着习惯，她听后觉得很遗憾，她说她希望看到不同民族和国家的人都有自己的服装特色，而不是都变得很西化。
我很赞同她的观点，但是在冷风刺骨的英格兰冬季，汉服真的扛不住啊，披一件羽绒服在外面的话，顿时就没有意境了。
所以这里涉及到了一个实用性的问题。中国地域辽阔，北方地区尤其是东北一带冬季寒冷，最低温可达零下二三十度，汉服虽美，实在是不能防寒保暖。
别说东北了，就是华北一带冬季也有零下十度了，有多少人会为了弘扬民族文化，穿着大褂在寒风中瑟瑟发抖呢？
其实，在温暖的春秋季节，紫禁城里还是不乏穿着古代服饰漫步拍照的男男女女，在成都也有很多穿汉服逛街的姑娘小伙子们，甚至有卖汉服的门店，门店的售货员就穿着简单的汉服裙子，大方自然，让人心向往之。
服饰话题，在口语考试中时常出现，比如这道题“Describea time you wore your best clothes.”我几乎没有听过同学们讲自己穿传统服饰，一般都是说比较贵的一套西装或者连衣裙。我有三四套汉服，它们虽不是我最贵的衣服，却一定是我穿上之后就会觉得很激动的服装，感觉自己变得温文尔雅了，变得不那么肤浅急躁了。
所以，服装真的可以影响心情，甚至个性，希望中国传统服饰能够得到越来越多人的重视，尤其是中国的年轻人。我们要把传统服饰的美展现给全世界，让他们不要再认为中国没有好看的衣服。
I would love to talk about a time I wore my Han costume. It was during a dancing class when I was wearing my Han dress since we were dancing a traditional style jazz dance. It was a super cool music style. Actually, I hadn’t worn my Han costume for a long time because I didn’t have a chance to wear it. I didn’t want to get attention by wearing this kind of strange clothes while walking on the street. I mentioned “strange”,but I actually believe that my clothes are very attractive. I once wore my Han costume in summer and went to class. I took the subway and everybody was staring at me. That was really embarrassing. I feltsad because people didn’t seem to think it’s normal to wear traditional clothes on a daily basis. Even during holidays, very few Chinese people would choose to wear traditional clothes. It’s a very disappointing situation. Therefore, on the day I went dancing, I decided to wear my favorite Han dress. My dancing classmates and teachers all praised my dress. They said the dress totally matched with the music style. I enjoyed the dancing class a lot as if I went back to the ancient time. I hope more and more young Chinese would start to pay attention to the beauty of our traditional clothes by wearing them, designing them and writing about them. In this way,people from other countries would know about our traditional costumes and the beauty of Chinese clothes.
