Do you like to put on makeup and wear costumes? If you do, you might like acting in a Chinese opera like the people in this picture.
The color of an actor's makeup and the style of his or her costume shows what each character is like. For example, good characters wear red makeup, brave characters wear black makeup and gods wear silver and gold makeup.
The costumes also tell you about the characters. For example, if a character has flags on his back, it means he is a soldier. Can you see the flags the man in the picture has on his back?

戲服也代表不同的角色，例如，若一個角色的背上有旗子，表示他是一名軍人。你看見照片中的男子背上的旗了嗎？

There are three main species of peacock: the well-known Indian peafowl, native to South Asia; the endangered green peafowl from Southeast Asia; and the rare Congo peafowl, found in African rainforests.
