Do you know “cosplay(角色扮演)” It is the activity of dressing up as a fictitious(虚构的) character from cartoons, books, films, video games or TV shows.

● Plan your cosplay: You should choose a character you like. It’s also important to find pictures with almost every detail(细节) of the character.
● Make or buy your cosplay clothing: You’d better make a list of everything you need. Sometimes, you may need to change the size of the things like the shoes or the dresses you get.
● Pay attention to making up and haircut(化妆和发型): You should find someone to make you up. You should also have the same haircut as the character you want to cosplay.

An old woman was playing a good game of bridge (打桥牌) with her friends one evening. “Oh, sorry! I have to go back home and make dinner for my husband! He is going to be really angry if it’s not ready on time!” she said suddenly.
