26、l is. You can feel how heavy the glass is. When you feel all these about the ball, you really see it. With your skin, you can feel better.

One way is to study the clothing other people wear. For thousands of years, people in different part of the world have worn very dif

Veils are part of the Moslem religion. The second reason is that different materials are used in differe
42、nt countries. For instance, in France the materials used in clothing may be cotton, silk, wool, or many other man-made materials. Most people in China wear cotton. The ways clothes are made are also very different. This is another reason why people dress differently. Western countries rely on machin
43、es to make most of their clothing. Someone living in India can use only hand power to make the clothing he needs. World-wide differences in customs also lead to differences in clothing.
