We can look at the traditional clothing to know more about culure. Africa has a long history and a rich culture, and this is shown in traditional dress. The three colours—red, gold and green, are often used in the clothing. The first colour represents the blood of millions of people who fought for freedom。 the second, rich resources of the African earth。 and the third, the grassland of home. Because clothing has strong social meanings, people are very careful in choosing what to wear. It would be a serious mistake to wear the wrong clothes, or to dress in the wrong way. For example, in Ghana, a woman should wear her waistband (腰帶) differently according to the importance of the social event. Traditional dress also tells us about everyday life. African designs are famous for loose (寬松的) clothing. The temperature there can be very high during the daytime but very low at night, so it requires that the clothes are fortable for daily life. Today although more and more young people like wearing Western clothes, especially in big cities in Africa, traditional African dress is still quite valuable. This is because it has deep cultural meanings.Traditional Dress in AfricaDifferent coloursl The three most _____1_____colours used in clothing are red, gold and green.l Different colours______2______ for different things: the blood of freedom fighters, resources of the earth and the grassland of home.Social meaningsl Because clothing has strong social meanings, people have to choose what to wear ______3______.l Women in Ghana even wear different waistbands according to how important the event is.Everyday lifel Because the temperature ______4______ greatly, clothes are usually loose and fortable.l Though Western clothes are popular with young people in some areas, traditional clothes are still of great ______5______.七、完成句子 按所給的漢語(yǔ),用英語(yǔ)完成下列句子,并將答案寫在答題卡對(duì)應(yīng)題號(hào)的橫線上。(本大題共6小題,共9分)1. 這部紀(jì)錄片有助于我們近距離觀察美國(guó)的學(xué)校生活。 This documentary helps us ___________________________________ the school life in America.2. 在去年的夏令營(yíng)活動(dòng)中,營(yíng)員們彼此和睦相處。 In the summer camp last year, all the members ________________________________________.3. 他們倆都不沉迷于電腦游戲,只喜歡看書。 _______________________________ puter games.
