If so, your confusion may have made sense.Several months ago, high fashion brand Balenciaga released a “T-shirt shirt”, which is a shirt sewn on the front of a T-shirt. The unusual design has certainly confus

11、ed a lot of people.But the “double shirt” isnt fighting alone on the frontier of strange fashion. Ever since US shoe manufacturer Crocs released its famous hole-filled foam shoes, the so-called “ugly fashion” hasnt showed any signs of slowing down, the Business of Fashion website noted.British desig

12、ner Paul Surridge believes that the rise of ugly fashion is a sign that people are bored with looking perfect all the time. “Fashion thrives (v. 蓬勃发展) on novelty”, he told the Financial Times.Indeed, fashion is all about changes. Something thats considered uncool one minute can then turn out to be t

13、he latest must-have fashion item the next.And in the eyes of US fashion writer Megan Collins, ugly doesnt necessarily mean the design of the item is ugly. After all, ugly is something subjective. “Ugly fashion means not the mainstream it is not what everyones wearing; it is not what the general popu

14、lation considers as in right now,” she told style news site Fashionista.But throughout the history of fashion, when any new trend appears, most people tend to hate it, before it eventually becomes loved. As Italian designer Miuccia Prada told The New York Times, “Maybe because it is newer, ugly is a

15、ttractive. Ugly is exciting.”Meanwhile, popular social media fashion bloggers also help people to pick up new ugly fashion trends. These bloggers express themselves through their clothes, showing their unique personalities and making statements with their wardrobe choices. However, as Clever-ish Mag

19、 as a model.22（8分） You know those nutrition guidelines the government issues every few years? It turns out that following them isnt just good for your health. Its good for the planet, too.“What we found is that impacts vary across nations, but in the highimpact nations, in general, you can see that,

20、 if you follow a nationally recommended diet, despite the fact that these diets dont mention explicitlyor most of them dont explicitly mentionenvironmental impacts, that you are going to have lower environmental impacts due to that. So thats sort of fairly clear across all the highincome nations.” s

21、aid Paul Behrens, an environmental scientist at Leiden University in the Netherlands.The food we eat takes a big toll on the environment. A third of the icefree land on Earth is used for agriculture, and according to some estimates, producing food accounts for roughly a fifth of all humancaused gree

22、nhouse gas emissions. Fertilizer runoff also leads to other problems, like the algae blooms in Lake Eerie and the Dead Zone in the Gulf of Mexico.However, following dietary guidelines would reduce those impacts, especially in wealthy countries like the US. “Most of the reductions come from meat and

23、dairy，” which have an outsized impact on land use and pollution, and are a major source of greenhouse gases.(Thats partly due to cow farts. Seriously.) Following the suggestions would also mean eating fewer calories, since many people here eat more than they need.Overall, in highincome countries, Be

24、hrens team estimates that following the rules could result in as much as a 17 percent reduction in land use, a 21 percent reduction in nutrient pollution, and a 25 percent drop in agricultural greenhouse gas emissions. Cutting down on how much food we wastewhich is roughly a third in the UScould hel

But: “These nationally recommended guidelines do actually have a knockon effect on other areas of policy making. So if Im developing a new healthyeatingforsch

26、ools program then thats going to be based off a lot of detail that I get from the nationally recommended guidelines. So while it might not necessarily be the case that people follow directly they actually are quite influential on the preparation of other advice.”It seems that a smaller environmental

27、 footprint and a healthier lifestyle could go hand in hand.1、Which of the following statement will Paul Behrens approve of?AFollowing a nationally recommended diet can have similar impacts in different countries.BFollowing a nationally recommended diet can do good to our health.CNot all the countrie

28、s have recommended diets in an explicit manner.DSome highincome nations dont mention the diet explicitly for its impacts can be ignored.2、What do the underlined words “takes a big toll on” in paragraph 3 probably mean?Ashows signs ofBhas a bad effect onCtakes full advantage ofDmakes up for3、Which of
