Dịch bài đọc:

Khi mùa hè đến và mặt trời xuất hiện, thật tốt khi có một chiếc mũ. Nhiều người có truyền thống chọn chiếc mũ panama. Phong cách, nhẹ nhàng và mát mẻ trên đầu, những chiếc mũ lá cọ này đủ mềm dẻo để cuộn lại và bỏ vào túi quần hoặc túi xách. Ngày nay, mũ panama có thể được tìm thấy trong các cửa hàng thời trang trên toàn thế giới, đôi khi với giá cắt cổ. Tuy nhiên, chiếc mũ có nguồn gốc từ khu vực xung quanh khá khiêm tốn trong các khu rừng ở Nam Mỹ. Theo một truyền thống lâu đời được truyền lại từ thế hệ này sang thế hệ khác, lá cọ được thu gom bởi những người đàn ông và những chiếc mũ được dệt bởi những người phụ nữ. Có thể mất tới 12 lá cọ để tạo nên một chiếc mũ chất lượng hàng đầu. Mỗi chiếc lá được chia tối đa 25 lần để có được một ống hút đủ tốt để dệt thành một chiếc mũ. Công việc của phụ nữ được quyết định bởi thời tiết và điều kiện ánh sáng: phải có đủ ánh sáng để họ nhìn rõ ống hút, nhưng không khí phải đủ ẩm để nó vẫn mềm dẻo. Điều này có nghĩa là phụ nữ thường chỉ có thể làm việc vào sáng sớm. Mặc dù mũ panama đắt tiền, trở lại trong làng, các thợ thủ công và phụ nữ đang đấu tranh để giữ cho truyền thống tồn tại và thường chỉ nhận được một phần nhỏ của cái giá bạn phải trả trong các cửa hàng.
