In ancient Egypt both men and women used to colour themselves with paints.
CUSTOMS AND TRADITIONS
1. In the Bijago Islands the roles that men and women play are different. Men look after the children and wear jewellery and perfume when they go out. They spend hours in front of a mirror brushing their hair and choosing clothes to wear. Women find building houses preferable to shopping and do all kinds of jobs men normally do in other countries.
2. In ancient Egypt people had their palms (ладони) and soles (подошвы) of their feet stained with a red vegetable paint. They also decorated their faces with blue paint. Women had their skin lightened with a reddish-yellow colouring; men had theirs darkened with orange paint. Both men and women used to line their eyes heavily with black powder.
3. Some fashions develop from religious beliefs. Rastafarians have their long hair twisted into thick strands (пряди). These are called dreadlocks. The lion is an important symbol in their religion and the dreadlocks symbolise a lion’s mane (грива). Many other people, black and white, have adopted this hairstyle simply because they find it attractive.
4. High heels (каблуки) and platform shoes are not new. Hundreds of years ago, people used to wear them in the street because the streets were full of rubbish (мусор). The rubbish didn’t touch their feet so their feet and dress didn’t get dirty. However they were uncomfortable and even dangerous to wear because of the terrible conditions of the roads.

Evolution
1. A central organizing concept in biology is that life changes and develops through evolution, and that all life-forms known have a common origin. Introduced into the scientific lexicon by Jean-Baptiste de Lamarck in 1809, Charles Darwin established evolution fifty years later as a viable theory by articulating its driving force: natural selection. Evolution is now used to explain the great variations of life found on Earth.
Darwin theorized that species and breeds developed through the processes of natural selection and artificial selection or selective breeding.
2. The evolutionary history of the species – which describes the characteristics of the various species from which it descended – together with its genealogical relationship to every other species is known as its phylogeny. Widely varied approaches to biology generate information about phylogeny. These include the comparisons of DNA sequences conducted within molecular biology or genomics, and comparisons of fossils or other records of ancient organisms in paleontology.
3. The theory of evolution postulates that all organisms on the Earth, both living and extinct, have descended from a common ancestor or an ancestral gene pool. This last universal common ancestor of all organisms is believed to have appeared about 3.5 billion years ago.

You may find that you will have to take special courses to qualify for a particular kind of work, or may find out that you will need to get some actual work experience to gain enough knowledge to qualify for a particular job.
