WHY are those girls wearing ancient costumes (古装)? Are they actresses? No! They are my classmates who are singing a Chinese poem (诗) for the Reading Festival. Look, the 13 girls all wore hanfu just because the poem was from the Han Dynasty (汉朝). They were perfect. Finally, our class won “the best performance prize”! But it was not easy. They practiced very hard every day. Sometimes they didn’t go home until dinnertime. They really did a good job!
