a. The modern lives of the “cholitas”
b. Women with a special style of clothing
c. International “chola: fashion
1 If you visit the Andes regions of Bolivia, Peru, or Chile, you might see women wearing unique clothing: bowler hats, handmade shawls, and lots of jewelry. This is the fashion of Aymaran women. The Aymara are an indigenous group of people from the Andes mountains and Aymaran women's clothing is very different. Locally, these women are called "cholitas" with their "chola" fashion.
2 In the past, it was difficult for Aymaran women to get good jobs or an education. They often lived in poorer parts of the cities. But in modern Bolivia, this is changing. More and more Aymaran women go to school. They often get well-paid jobs, so they now have money to spend on more expensive clothes. When French photographer Delphine Blast visited La Paz, the capital of Bolivia, she loved the style of the cholitas, so she photographed some of these fashionably dressed women.
3 Eliana Paco Paredes is an Aymaran fashion designer, and she says that chola clothes are in fashion at the moment. She has a store in La Paz and sells the clothes to local people, and also internationally. "We dress many people in Peru, Argentina, Chile, Brazil, and some products we make go to Spain and Italy." Recently, Eliana showed her clothes at New York's Fashion Week, where they were very popular. "We're getting people to learn about what this clothing is, ... and many women outside of Bolivia want to wear these outfits."

1. What problem do som people in Myanma have?
2. What is the solution?
Electricity from the sun
When you go home this evening after school or after work, you're probably going to switch a light on, tum the heat or air conditioning on, cook dinner, or watch TV. Whatever you plan to do, you're probably going to use electricity.
Most of us use electricity without thinking about it, but outside of the cities, people get light from the sun during the day and from candles at night. Candles are expensive and dangerous, but now there is a safer and cheaper solution to this problem: small solar panels are easy to use and can give electricity immediately.
When Spanish photographer Rubén Salgado Escudero first visited Myanmar, he said: "I worked in villages and the people had no light at night. Then, one day, I visited a village with solar lights and people's everyday life was much easier. For example, fishermen went fishing before sunrise because of the solar panels. Children could do their homework as a result of electricity.
After his first visit, Rubén showed his photographs of people with their solar lights and he raised money to pay for more solar lights. Now, more people in Myanmar have solar panels; those panels take energy from the sun and then provide 12 hours of light during the night. In the future, Myanmar is going to build larger solar panels for some of these villages.
