　　和高中好友聊到08年9月新出現(xiàn)的這個(gè)變態(tài)話題卡的時(shí)候說到了日本的和服，想想也確實(shí)是個(gè)不錯(cuò)的題材，考試時(shí)候說出來可以引起考官的興趣，做到與眾不同。

　　OK, let me talk about the national costume of Japan: Kimono

　?、?Kimono are T-shaped, straight-lined robes that fall to the ankle, with collars and wide, full-length sleeves.There are different types of kimono for different occasions and seasons, including those worn by men.

　　② Kimono can be found in many places in Japan but people have to pay through the nose as they cost an arm and a leg. A decent silk kimono will set you back the best part of a million yen.

　?、?Kimono are a much less common sight these days and are usually only seen worn by older people or on special occasions. A few older women and even fewer men still wear kimono on a daily basis. I wear kimono when I was in Japan most often at weddings, tea ceremonies, and other very special or very formal occasions.

　?、?Why wear Kimono? Its very rich---you experience a lot of culture and you get such a world of thoughts that go with it. Its not just the feeling that you get from wearing kimono, but the natsukashi . Also, its always fun to dress up, and you get different reactions from people. The long and the short, its fun, fashionable and infused with tradition. What better reasons could there be?
