Today is Sunday, so Peter doesn't go out. He asks his parents about the traditional Chinese clothes—tangzhuang.
Some people think tangzhuang are Chinese clothes from the Tang Dynasty. In fact, a Tang Suit is not a suit of the Tang Dynasty but a Chinese-style suit. Tangzhuang get the name because the Tang Dynasty is so famous around the world.
Tangzhuang are designed in a special way. Silk is the first choice when picking materials（材料）for tangzhuang. Stand-up collars and symmetrical lapels（对称翻领）are also features that make tangzhuang different from other styles.
Exquisite embroidery（刺绣）is another feature of tangzhuang. Even the little buttons（纽扣）are made with great attention to detail. These different buttons are the finishing touches of tangzhuang.
People usually put on tangzhuang for the Spring Festival or weddings. Chinese people think tangzhuang are special clothing for important events.

Tom walks past the shop on the street corner. He stops to look at the front row of shoes, and he feels happy to see that the shoes he wants very much are still there. Looking down, he feels sorry for himself. He really wants to have them for his birthday.
He walks away sadly and thinks about whether he should tell his mother about it. But actually, he knows she can’t pay for such an expensive pair of shoes either. He decides not to go home at once, as he looks unhappy and his mother will notice it. So he goes to the park and sits on the grass.
Then he sees a man walking a dog. The man keeps typing on his phone and looks too busy to take good care of his dog. Tom gets an idea! He walks up to the man and politely asks if he needs someone to walk his dog every day for just 10. The man is surprised but thinks it is a great idea, so he says yes.
