The leather jacket is age-wn and sft. I fund it banging in the windw f a shp in Brightn, England. I was there t deliver a talk n mdem wmen’s writing at an internatinal cnference, a PhD student eager t make a name fr herself and waiting fr her life t start. I had just turned 28.
I’m still clsely cnnected t that wman, her dreams and her ambitin (雄心), althugh she als frightens me. She was always quite determined, this leather jacket wman — she had a five-year plan and was sticking t it! This was the wman wh culdn’t find time t visit her grandmther, wh regularly missed her nieces’ and nephews’ birthday parties, and wh left and didn’t lk back.
She and I are ne and the same, but we are als very different. There was a change that happened a few years int the five-year plan. Each time ne gal pst was reached, anther tk its place. This is the pattern f the verly ambitius. I started t dubt whether it wuld result in any real success ther than an unwavering (坚定不移的) ability t give up everything else alng the way. My determinatin wavered. I realized I didn’t want the same things anymre. The jacket mved t the back f the wardrbe (衣橱).
Seven years later, as I stand in frnt f my wardrbe filled with useless clthes, I dn’t knw what t d with the jacket. When England’s cld spread t my bnes years earlier, the jacket had felt like a practical thing I bught. Here in Australia’s sunshine, it always felt a little silly. I let it fall heavily n the bed alngside the ther clthes I’ve decided t give away because they n lnger make the cut.
Yet, despite its uselessness and hw much space it takes up, at the last mment I return the leather jacket t the wardrbe. I think it will always stand fr a part f myself that I’m nt quite willing t give up frever — that ambitius, mtivated wman.

Cffee may be unfriendly t a financial planner, accrding t researchers frm the University f Suth Flrida (USF) “Caffeine (咖啡因), as a pwerful stimulant, leads t a higher energetic state, which in turn decreases self-cntrl, “ said lead authr and USF prfessr Dipayan Biswas. The findings were published n Thursday in the Jurnal f Marketing.
Accrding t the study, researchers ran three experiments invlving cffee machines at the entrances f a supermarket and hme gds stre in France and a department stre in Spain. Upn entering thse places, ver 300 shppers received a cup with nthing in it yet. Abut half f thse shppers rdered a cffee cntaining rughly 100 mg f caffeine, while the ther half went in with either decaffeinated cffee r water. Imprtantly, the shppers als shared their shpping receipts (收据) with researchers as they exited.
Sure enugh, peple wh drank caffeinated cffee bught a significantly higher number f items and spent mre mney. Interestingly, drinking caffeine als appeared t influence the types f items peple bught. Shppers wh. drank caffeine bught mre unnecessary items, such as decrative candles and fragrances (香水) , than the thers. Hwever, there were few differences amng caffeinated and decaffeinated shppers when it came t making mre practical decisins, including kitchen tls and strage baskets.
The study authrs als cnducted the furth experiment in a lab testing the impact f caffeine n nline shpping. They separated a grup f 200 business schl students depending n whether they just drank caffeinated r decaffeinated cffee. Then, each persn had t pick which items they wuld buy frm a list f 66 ptins. Again, peple drinking caffeine chse mre unnecessary items frm the list while the thers tended t chse mre practical gds.
“While mderate (适度的) amunts f caffeine intake can have psitive health benefits, there can be unintended results f being caffeinated while shpping,” Prf Biswas cncludes.
28. What can we knw mm the study?
A. Caffeine may imprve peple’s healthB. Caffeine may help peple relieve pressure.
C. Caffeine may cause peple t be unfriendly. D. Caffeine may leave peple less self-cntrlled.

Bees are knwn t tell time by light and scial clues. Nw, researchers have shwn that the bilgical clcks f bees can be changed by anther surprising factr: temperature cycles inside the hive (蜂巢) .
The researchers tried t better understand hw bees lived in areas beynd where light entered the hive. They were surprised t find clear temperature fluctuatins acrss the day mrughut the hive. which was caused by daylight.
T understand hw imprtant this temperature cycle was t a bee’s activity, the researchers put bees in ttal darkness all the time while expsing them t the temperature cycles they bserved within the hive. Six days later, the scientists mved the temperature cycle back by six hurs. “We saw that the bees changed their activity with the temperature, meaning their daily rutines were reactive t temperature,” a researcher said.
The discvery that bees can tell exact time frm temperature cycles inside the hive shws that n a cludy day r when bees aren’t ging utdrs, they have ther means t tell time exactly. This will affect the way that researchers understand, explain and cmbine what they knw f bee behavir.
Mre bradly, as mre extreme weather events ccur arund the wrld, bees will face challenges t cntinuing the activities that keep them and the agriculture they supprt healthy and energetic. If part f the suthern U. S. is hit with an unexpected snwstrm, bees getting ready t search fr fd might nt realize they need t save energy and heat the hive. In the event f a 100-degree day, bees will have t spend a lt f energy keeping the hive c. It is thse cnsideratins that will influence hive health r pssible hive breakdwn.
“We want t see hw imprtant this research is this winter in Tennessee，when bees aren’t leaving the hive as much,” researchers said. “We will be interested t see hw ur findings apply t znes where temperature varies mre greatly acrss the year.” This research will als reshape hw researchers think abut bees’ bilgical rhythms.
32. What des the underlined wrd “fluctuatins” in paragraph 2 prbably mean?
A. MeasuresB. Changes. C. Appraches. D. Functins
33. What can we learn abut the research?
A. It was carried ut at night. B. It was based n a previus study
C. It analyzed bees’ daily rutines. D: It studied hw bees react t challenges
34. The last paragraph talks abut the ______ f the research.
A. SignificanceB. resultC. prcessD. backgrund
35. Which might be the best title tr the passage?
A. Lights Affect Bees’ Bilgical ClcksB. Bee Behavir Surprises Researchers
C. Bees React Smartly t Extreme WeatherD. Bees Can Tell Time by Temperature

这篇文章讲述了作者在英国布莱顿的一家商店橱窗里发现了一件皮夹克，当时她在那里发表关于现代女性写作的演讲，是一个渴望成名的博士生，并期待着生活的开始。文章揭示了那个时期的她非常坚定且有雄心壮志，有着五年计划并坚决执行。然而几年后，她开始怀疑过度的野心是否真的能带来除了一路放弃其他事物之外的真正成功，她的决心动摇了，意识到自己不再追求同样的东西，于是那件皮夹克就被放在了衣柜的后面。
尽管这件皮夹克在澳大利亚的阳光下显得有些不合时宜且占用空间，但在最后关头，作者还是将其放回了衣柜中，因为它代表着她的一部分自我——那个满怀雄心壮志、积极进取的自我，她还不愿意完全放弃这一面。所以，作者保留这件夹克是为了珍惜她真实的自我。

根据研究人员的研究结果，咖啡中的咖啡因作为一种强大的刺激物，会导致更高的能量状态，进而降低自我控制能力。研究者们进行了三个实验，让购物者在进入超市、家居用品店和百货公司时先拿到空杯子，之后一半的购物者点了含有约100毫克咖啡因的咖啡，另一半则选择了无咖啡因咖啡或水。结果显示，摄入咖啡因的购物者购买的物品数量显著增多，花费的钱也更多，并且倾向于购买更多不必要的商品，如装饰蜡烛和香水等。而在实验室进行的第四项在线购物影响实验中，同样证明了喝咖啡因的人会选择更多的非必需品。
据此可以得出结论，咖啡因可能会让人们在购物时自我控制力减弱，更容易做出冲动消费的决定。鉴于此，对于预算有限的人来说，Biswas教授可能会建议他们在购物前避免饮用含咖啡因的咖啡。

研究人员发现，蜜蜂除了通过光线和社会线索判断时间外，蜂巢内部的温度周期变化也可以改变蜜蜂的生物钟。在研究中，科研人员将蜜蜂置于全黑暗环境中，同时让它们接触观察到的蜂巢内部温度周期变化。六天后，科学家将温度周期向后移动六个小时，发现蜜蜂会随着温度的变化调整活动，显示出它们的日程活动受温度的影响。
这一发现表明，在阴天或蜜蜂不出巢的情况下，它们还有其他精确判断时间的方法。这将会影响研究者理解和解释蜜蜂行为的方式，并影响他们整合相关知识的方式。在全球极端天气事件频发的背景下，蜜蜂将面临维持自身健康和农业生产所需活力的挑战。例如，如果美国南部遭受意外降雪，准备寻找食物的蜜蜂可能意识不到需要节约能量加热蜂巢；在100度高温的日子里，蜜蜂则需消耗大量能量保持蜂巢凉爽。这些因素都将影响蜂巢的健康状况，甚至可能导致蜂巢崩溃。
研究者表示，他们希望了解这项研究在冬季田纳西州的重要性，那时蜜蜂不会频繁出巢，同时也很关注他们的发现如何应用于一年中温差更大的地区。这项研究还将重塑研究者对蜜蜂生物节律的看法。综上所述，本文最佳标题可能是“蜜蜂能通过温度感知时间”。

许多人成年后都渴望拥有更牢固、更真诚的友谊。但是建立这些关系的过程可能会显得缓慢而尴尬。那么，怎样才能跨越尴尬的寒暄阶段，加速推进一段可能的友谊呢？我学到了一些方法：
37. G 相反，与其毫无风险但也缺乏深度地闲聊，不如直奔你感兴趣的话题。例如，“你认为史上最棒的电视剧结局是什么？”只要这个话题对你而言有趣，它就是一个很好的开场白。如果对方慢慢退缩，那么你就节省了几小时的无效聊天时间。
38. A 我们应该远离八卦。通常情况下，我们的友谊之所以感觉肤浅，是因为它们建立在八卦的基础上。谈论共同认识的他人的最新动态虽然可以缓解压力，但建立在这种八卦基础上的友谊会让双方在相处后感到疲惫和沮丧。
39. C 当朋友开始向你分享他人的情况时，你可以诚恳地说：“我想听听你最近的情况。”或者自问：“如果我现在和我最好的朋友在一起，我会分享些什么？”然后直接分享你内心深处的事情。
40. D 真正的朋友不仅会关心彼此是谁，也会在不必担心被评判的环境下分享彼此的挣扎。深化友谊的一个好方法是询问对方：“过去一年你遇到过哪些挑战？”或者：“你的某个信念在一生中发生了怎样的改变？”这些问题我们很少互相询问，但它们揭示了我们是谁，以及我们试图成为什么样的人。

在我20多岁的时候，我住在圣巴巴拉，对自己的生活道路感到迷茫。我渴望有所不同，甚至想去一个新的城市，但我并不清楚自己究竟想要什么，也不知道如何去实现。
就在这时，我偶然读到了一本名为《创造性想象》的书。我发现其中的目标设定练习极其有益。书中作者告诉读者要设想他们所能拥有的最美好的生活，考虑生活各个方面，包括人际关系、工作、个人发展等等。接着，他们应该拿起笔，如同这一切已如愿以偿般写下关于这种完美生活的描述。
当时做这个练习对我帮助很大，它鼓励我去反思自己的价值观、内心最深的渴望和目标。比如那时候，我想象自己有一份可以帮助他人的工作，能够说多种语言，还能演奏更多的音乐。尽管这些事情并未最终出现在我的生活中，但明确知道自己想要什么有助于我树立一个朝着这些目标努力的方向。
从那以后，我在过去的许多年里多次做了这个练习，而且经常收获良好的效果。即便如此，直到最近我才注意到有研究支持这一做法。研究表明，当你设想自己最好的可能性时，你会对生活更加乐观和积极，这激励你致力于实现目标。
我不能保证这种方法也适用于你，但它或许会在你对未来的感受上产生重要影响。因此，何不花点时间去想象一下未来的生活呢？思考你生活的所有相关方面，然后连续写大约15分钟，描述你心目中这个最美好的未来会是什么样子。

马耳他热爱中国文化的人们现在可以通过一个新的名为“汉服服饰协会”的文化平台学习有关汉服的一切知识。该平台于周五在马耳他的中国文化中心正式启动。中国文化中心主任袁媛在启动活动上表示：“这个平台旨在促进中马两国文化交流，展示丰富传统民族文化。”
汉服以其独特设计和文化意义而闻名。这一历史服装形式已被年轻的中国人重新发现，他们越来越多地选择穿着汉服。
已在马耳他居住近五年的余程决定，每当中国文化中心举办任何与汉服相关的活动时，都会分享她的汉服收藏。她对传统服饰的热情促使她的藏品中包含了从西汉、唐、宋到明各朝代风格的服饰。穿上汉服使得她的生活更加优雅。外出时，她会穿着专为不同场合设计的不同服装，不可避免地吸引了人们的赞赏。
“逐渐地，越来越多的人认识到中国传统服饰丰富而美丽。”她说。“我渴望通过我的努力为保护中国传统文化作出贡献。”

The leather jacket is age-wn and sft. I fund it banging in the windw f a shp in Brightn, England. I was there t deliver a talk n mdem wmen’s writing at an internatinal cnference, a PhD student eager t make a name fr herself and waiting fr her life t start. I had just turned 28.
I’m still clsely cnnected t that wman, her dreams and her ambitin (雄心), althugh she als frightens me. She was always quite determined, this leather jacket wman — she had a five-year plan and was sticking t it! This was the wman wh culdn’t find time t visit her grandmther, wh regularly missed her nieces’ and nephews’ birthday parties, and wh left and didn’t lk back.
She and I are ne and the same, but we are als very different. There was a change that happened a few years int the five-year plan. Each time ne gal pst was reached, anther tk its place. This is the pattern f the verly ambitius. I started t dubt whether it wuld result in any real success ther than an unwavering (坚定不移的) ability t give up everything else alng the way. My determinatin wavered. I realized I didn’t want the same things anymre. The jacket mved t the back f the wardrbe (衣橱).
Seven years later, as I stand in frnt f my wardrbe filled with useless clthes, I dn’t knw what t d with the jacket. When England’s cld spread t my bnes years earlier, the jacket had felt like a practical thing I bught. Here in Australia’s sunshine, it always felt a little silly. I let it fall heavily n the bed alngside the ther clthes I’ve decided t give away because they n lnger make the cut.
Yet, despite its uselessness and hw much space it takes up, at the last mment I return the leather jacket t the wardrbe. I think it will always stand fr a part f myself that I’m nt quite willing t give up frever — that ambitius, mtivated wman.

Cffee may be unfriendly t a financial planner, accrding t researchers frm the University f Suth Flrida (USF) “Caffeine (咖啡因), as a pwerful stimulant, leads t a higher energetic state, which in turn decreases self-cntrl, “ said lead authr and USF prfessr Dipayan Biswas. The findings were published n Thursday in the Jurnal f Marketing.
Accrding t the study, researchers ran three experiments invlving cffee machines at the entrances f a supermarket and hme gds stre in France and a department stre in Spain. Upn entering thse places, ver 300 shppers received a cup with nthing in it yet. Abut half f thse shppers rdered a cffee cntaining rughly 100 mg f caffeine, while the ther half went in with either decaffeinated cffee r water. Imprtantly, the shppers als shared their shpping receipts (收据) with researchers as they exited.
Sure enugh, peple wh drank caffeinated cffee bught a significantly higher number f items and spent mre mney. Interestingly, drinking caffeine als appeared t influence the types f items peple bught. Shppers wh. drank caffeine bught mre unnecessary items, such as decrative candles and fragrances (香水) , than the thers. Hwever, there were few differences amng caffeinated and decaffeinated shppers when it came t making mre practical decisins, including kitchen tls and strage baskets.
The study authrs als cnducted the furth experiment in a lab testing the impact f caffeine n nline shpping. They separated a grup f 200 business schl students depending n whether they just drank caffeinated r decaffeinated cffee. Then, each persn had t pick which items they wuld buy frm a list f 66 ptins. Again, peple drinking caffeine chse mre unnecessary items frm the list while the thers tended t chse mre practical gds.
“While mderate (适度的) amunts f caffeine intake can have psitive health benefits, there can be unintended results f being caffeinated while shpping,” Prf Biswas cncludes.
28. What can we knw mm the study?
A. Caffeine may imprve peple’s healthB. Caffeine may help peple relieve pressure.
C. Caffeine may cause peple t be unfriendly. D. Caffeine may leave peple less self-cntrlled.

Bees are knwn t tell time by light and scial clues. Nw, researchers have shwn that the bilgical clcks f bees can be changed by anther surprising factr: temperature cycles inside the hive (蜂巢) .
The researchers tried t better understand hw bees lived in areas beynd where light entered the hive. They were surprised t find clear temperature fluctuatins acrss the day mrughut the hive. which was caused by daylight.
T understand hw imprtant this temperature cycle was t a bee’s activity, the researchers put bees in ttal darkness all the time while expsing them t the temperature cycles they bserved within the hive. Six days later, the scientists mved the temperature cycle back by six hurs. “We saw that the bees changed their activity with the temperature, meaning their daily rutines were reactive t temperature,” a researcher said.
The discvery that bees can tell exact time frm temperature cycles inside the hive shws that n a cludy day r when bees aren’t ging utdrs, they have ther means t tell time exactly. This will affect the way that researchers understand, explain and cmbine what they knw f bee behavir.
Mre bradly, as mre extreme weather events ccur arund the wrld, bees will face challenges t cntinuing the activities that keep them and the agriculture they supprt healthy and energetic. If part f the suthern U. S. is hit with an unexpected snwstrm, bees getting ready t search fr fd might nt realize they need t save energy and heat the hive. In the event f a 100-degree day, bees will have t spend a lt f energy keeping the hive c. It is thse cnsideratins that will influence hive health r pssible hive breakdwn.
“We want t see hw imprtant this research is this winter in Tennessee，when bees aren’t leaving the hive as much,” researchers said. “We will be interested t see hw ur findings apply t znes where temperature varies mre greatly acrss the year.” This research will als reshape hw researchers think abut bees’ bilgical rhythms.
32. What des the underlined wrd “fluctuatins” in paragraph 2 prbably mean?
A. MeasuresB. Changes. C. Appraches. D. Functins
33. What can we learn abut the research?
A. It was carried ut at night. B. It was based n a previus study
C. It analyzed bees’ daily rutines. D: It studied hw bees react t challenges
34. The last paragraph talks abut the ______ f the research.
A. SignificanceB. resultC. prcessD. backgrund
35. Which might be the best title tr the passage?
A. Lights Affect Bees’ Bilgical ClcksB. Bee Behavir Surprises Researchers

23. 正确答案是：B. T recmmend sme amazing reserves.
文章开头提到“我们整理了一份全球令人惊叹的度假胜地清单，供您添加到旅行愿望清单中”，接着介绍了三个不同地点的度假胜地，因此文章的主要目的是推荐一些令人惊叹的度假胜地。因此，正确答案是B。

这篇文章讲述了作者在英国布莱顿的一家商店橱窗里发现了一件皮夹克，当时她在那里发表关于现代女性写作的演讲，是一个渴望成名的博士生，并期待着生活的开始。文章揭示了那个时期的她非常坚定且有雄心壮志，有着五年计划并坚决执行。然而几年后，她开始怀疑过度的野心是否真的能带来除了一路放弃其他事物之外的真正成功，她的决心动摇了，意识到自己不再追求同样的东西，于是那件皮夹克就被放在了衣柜的后面。
尽管这件皮夹克在澳大利亚的阳光下显得有些不合时宜且占用空间，但在最后关头，作者还是将其放回了衣柜中，因为它代表着她的一部分自我——那个满怀雄心壮志、积极进取的自我，她还不愿意完全放弃这一面。所以，作者保留这件夹克是为了珍惜她真实的自我。

根据研究人员的研究结果，咖啡中的咖啡因作为一种强大的刺激物，会导致更高的能量状态，进而降低自我控制能力。研究者们进行了三个实验，让购物者在进入超市、家居用品店和百货公司时先拿到空杯子，之后一半的购物者点了含有约100毫克咖啡因的咖啡，另一半则选择了无咖啡因咖啡或水。结果显示，摄入咖啡因的购物者购买的物品数量显著增多，花费的钱也更多，并且倾向于购买更多不必要的商品，如装饰蜡烛和香水等。而在实验室进行的第四项在线购物影响实验中，同样证明了喝咖啡因的人会选择更多的非必需品。
据此可以得出结论，咖啡因可能会让人们在购物时自我控制力减弱，更容易做出冲动消费的决定。鉴于此，对于预算有限的人来说，Biswas教授可能会建议他们在购物前避免饮用含咖啡因的咖啡。
D
32. B. Changes.
33. C. It analyzed bees’ daily rutines.
34. A. Significance
35. D. Bees Can Tell Time by Temperature
研究人员发现，蜜蜂除了通过光线和社会线索判断时间外，蜂巢内部的温度周期变化也可以改变蜜蜂的生物钟。在研究中，科研人员将蜜蜂置于全黑暗环境中，同时让它们接触观察到的蜂巢内部温度周期变化。六天后，科学家将温度周期向后移动六个小时，发现蜜蜂会随着温度的变化调整活动，显示出它们的日程活动受温度的影响。
这一发现表明，在阴天或蜜蜂不出巢的情况下，它们还有其他精确判断时间的方法。这将会影响研究者理解和解释蜜蜂行为的方式，并影响他们整合相关知识的方式。在全球极端天气事件频发的背景下，蜜蜂将面临维持自身健康和农业生产所需活力的挑战。例如，如果美国南部遭受意外降雪，准备寻找食物的蜜蜂可能意识不到需要节约能量加热蜂巢；在100度高温的日子里，蜜蜂则需消耗大量能量保持蜂巢凉爽。这些因素都将影响蜂巢的健康状况，甚至可能导致蜂巢崩溃。
研究者表示，他们希望了解这项研究在冬季田纳西州的重要性，那时蜜蜂不会频繁出巢，同时也很关注他们的发现如何应用于一年中温差更大的地区。这项研究还将重塑研究者对蜜蜂生物节律的看法。综上所述，本文最佳标题可能是“蜜蜂能通过温度感知时间”。

许多人成年后都渴望拥有更牢固、更真诚的友谊。但是建立这些关系的过程可能会显得缓慢而尴尬。那么，怎样才能跨越尴尬的寒暄阶段，加速推进一段可能的友谊呢？我学到了一些方法：
37. G 相反，与其毫无风险但也缺乏深度地闲聊，不如直奔你感兴趣的话题。例如，“你认为史上最棒的电视剧结局是什么？”只要这个话题对你而言有趣，它就是一个很好的开场白。如果对方慢慢退缩，那么你就节省了几小时的无效聊天时间。
38. A 我们应该远离八卦。通常情况下，我们的友谊之所以感觉肤浅，是因为它们建立在八卦的基础上。谈论共同认识的他人的最新动态虽然可以缓解压力，但建立在这种八卦基础上的友谊会让双方在相处后感到疲惫和沮丧。
39. C 当朋友开始向你分享他人的情况时，你可以诚恳地说：“我想听听你最近的情况。”或者自问：“如果我现在和我最好的朋友在一起，我会分享些什么？”然后直接分享你内心深处的事情。
40. D 真正的朋友不仅会关心彼此是谁，也会在不必担心被评判的环境下分享彼此的挣扎。深化友谊的一个好方法是询问对方：“过去一年你遇到过哪些挑战？”或者：“你的某个信念在一生中发生了怎样的改变？”这些问题我们很少互相询问，但它们揭示了我们是谁，以及我们试图成为什么样的人。

在我20多岁的时候，我住在圣巴巴拉，对自己的生活道路感到迷茫。我渴望有所不同，甚至想去一个新的城市，但我并不清楚自己究竟想要什么，也不知道如何去实现。
就在这时，我偶然读到了一本名为《创造性想象》的书。我发现其中的目标设定练习极其有益。书中作者告诉读者要设想他们所能拥有的最美好的生活，考虑生活各个方面，包括人际关系、工作、个人发展等等。接着，他们应该拿起笔，如同这一切已如愿以偿般写下关于这种完美生活的描述。
当时做这个练习对我帮助很大，它鼓励我去反思自己的价值观、内心最深的渴望和目标。比如那时候，我想象自己有一份可以帮助他人的工作，能够说多种语言，还能演奏更多的音乐。尽管这些事情并未最终出现在我的生活中，但明确知道自己想要什么有助于我树立一个朝着这些目标努力的方向。
从那以后，我在过去的许多年里多次做了这个练习，而且经常收获良好的效果。即便如此，直到最近我才注意到有研究支持这一做法。研究表明，当你设想自己最好的可能性时，你会对生活更加乐观和积极，这激励你致力于实现目标。
我不能保证这种方法也适用于你，但它或许会在你对未来的感受上产生重要影响。因此，何不花点时间去想象一下未来的生活呢？思考你生活的所有相关方面，然后连续写大约15分钟，描述你心目中这个最美好的未来会是什么样子。

马耳他热爱中国文化的人们现在可以通过一个新的名为“汉服服饰协会”的文化平台学习有关汉服的一切知识。该平台于周五在马耳他的中国文化中心正式启动。中国文化中心主任袁媛在启动活动上表示：“这个平台旨在促进中马两国文化交流，展示丰富传统民族文化。”
汉服以其独特设计和文化意义而闻名。这一历史服装形式已被年轻的中国人重新发现，他们越来越多地选择穿着汉服。
