①Hanfu has become more and more popular with young people.
②But most teenagers like Hanfu because of the culture behind it. They regard it as a way to show Chinese traditional culture. Its wide sleeves(衣袖) and crossed collars bring people back to ancient times. Nanhe, a costurne studio owner, told CCTV, “I am proud that I can show my love for traditional culture with the traditional clothes.” Let’s pass down this Chinese traditional culture generation by generation! And let’s pull together to make the world understand it!
③For others, it’s a costurne to relax. Dafan, a college student, told CCTV that dressing in Hanfu is a way for her to get relaxed. “Hanfu and modern clothing help me to show the different sides in me,” she explained.
④In some teenagers’ opinions, China has followed western fashion designs in recent years, but a growing number of young people are now looking back to the past for more fashion ideas. In a recent report by an online shopping platform(平台), about 2 million Hanfu clothes were sold in 2019, nearly 4 times as many as those sold in 2018. Most of the buyers are young Chinese between 19 and 24 years old.

9 . Both of my two sons were born in Toronto, but they moved with us to Ottawa when they were quite young. They went to school there, grew up there. Later, one of my sons went to Canada’s east coast near a city called Halifax and the other moved to the west coast to Vancouver. My wife and I were left in the middle.
As we nearly retired (退休), we started to think where we should spend our final years. For several reasons we decided to live on a small town on Vancouver Island, where was close to one of my sons. However, the son moved to Hollywood soon after he had got another job there. I helped him move.
We still lived a happy life in our little west coast town, but we have paid a price. We have not been there for some important events such as the births of our grandchildren. We have missed watching them grow up; we have missed backyard barbecues (烧烤) and basketball weekends with them. Our home, while very comfortable, was also very quiet.
Every fall we travel to see the children. We usually fly, first to California to see our son Scott and spend a week or more with him trying to catch up on everything we’ve missed. Then, usually in November, we make the even longer trip east across Canada to see Travis and our grandchildren, who were about their twenties.
Fortunately, both our sons are doing well and grandchildren are growing up straight and tall. We love all of them and they love us. We’re very happy but there are times I think about the things we didn’t see: the tears or the smile on the granddaughter’s face, their school graduations, my son’s joy at successes in business.
Life has been good for our family but we have all paid a price.
