Part 2: Describe a hat you like
Task Card:
Describe a hat you find interesting. You should say:
- What it looks like
- Where you saw it
- Why it caught your attention
Sample Answer:
I’d like to talk about a fascinating hat I saw in a historical drama—a Chinese ‘Phoenix Crown’ (凤冠) . It’s a traditional headpiece for brides, decorated with gold phoenixes, pearls, and gemstones. I first saw it in the TV show Empresses in the Palace, where empresses wore it during weddings. What amazed me was its symbolism: the phoenix represents nobility, and the intricate craftsmanship can take months to complete. Although it’s not practical for daily life, I think it’s a stunning piece of cultural art. If I ever attend a themed party, I’d love to try it on!
墨西哥宽檐帽
色彩斑斓的「Sombrero」不仅是防晒神器,更是狂欢节上的灵魂!它的名字源自西班牙语“Sombra”(阴影)——实用与欢乐的完美结合。
我们来举一个Part 3的例子
- Why do you think traditional hats like the sombrero remain important today?
They preserve cultural identity. For instance, the sombrero isn’t just a hat—it represents Mexico’s history, climate, and artistic traditions. Even today, it’s worn proudly at festivals, showing how heritage adapts to modern life.
