The law, approved last March in Israel, requires models to prove they have maintained a Body Mass Index (BM

40、I) of at least 18.5 for three months before a fashion show. That means a woman who is 68 inches tall can weigh no less than 119 pounds.“This law is another step in the war against eating disorders,” said physician Adatto. “Underweight models,” he explained, “can no longer serve as role models for in

41、nocent young people who copy their false image of being skinny.”But some critics in this country say it is misguided, focusing on weight instead of health. They also say the Israeli ban is bound to fail because of the strong power of the fashion industry. “I think its an approach that isnt going to

42、work.” said eating disorder expert Susan Ice, who worked with an organization which creates a healthy working environment for models.But Adatto told the reporter that he began to concern the issue after meeting an ambitious model who looked like she needed to be hospitalized. He said. “I realized th

43、at only legislation(立法) can change the situation. There was no time to waste; so many girls were dieting to death.”However, the efforts to regulate models weight in Spain and Italy have not resulted in significant changes in part because of difficulties in determining reliable methods of measuring w

44、eight and health.Still, folks including Ice say theres no denying that images from Hollywood and the fashion industry can be difficult for young women to deal with. “Certainly I dont believe the modeling industry has caused the rise in eating disorders, but it makes it harder,” she says. “Its a diff

45、icult recovery environment, worshiping thinness as the beauty ideal.”49. One benefit the new Israeli law may bring is _.A. to change the working conditions of modelsB. to lower the chance of skinny models deathC. to provide guidance for women worshiping thinnessD. to prevent models from suffering fr

46、om eating disorders50.

Being interviewed by a reporter.D. Seeing a model die from eating disorders.52. According to the passage, the new Israeli law bann

48、ing skinny models is.A. practical B. controversial C. acceptable D. Reasonable 任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)Could you believe that the ideal person is never the best at anything? Our heads are so full of ambitions about wealth and power that we spin our wheels until we burn ourselves out and are left hop

49、eless and exhausted.There is great pressure to attain the highest level of achievement. By satisfying our vanity (虚荣) we do ourselves more harm than good. The only way to achieve sustainable happiness is to practice the Golden Mean.The idea of the Golden Mean has existed for thousands of years. It i

50、s at the centre of both Eastern and Western philosophy and has more influence than the teachings of Aristotle and Confucius. The idea is simple. Every quality has extremes at both ends. The Golden Mean is the natural balance between these extremes. At this harmonious point goodness and beauty are ac

51、hieved.Socrates used the example of extreme devotion to athletics versus (与相比) extreme devotion to music to illustrate this idea. The athlete becomes overly aggressive and cruel, while the musician becomes overly soft and womanish. The ideal is someone who practices both athletics and music and acqu

52、ires a harmonious mixture of both qualities.Consider an example from modern times that Im sure everyone has observed. The first person is extremely career driven. Each day he focuses on advancing himself. He spends long hours at the office, competes mercilessly with his coworkers, and flatters his s

53、uperiors. As a result he has almost no personal life. The second persons only pursuit is leisure. He likes to waste time with his friends watching television and playing video games.Which of these persons is superior? Many people would argue for the hard worker. But at second glance his life is rath

54、er cold. His obsession (痴迷) with success has conflicted with his coworkers and left him without a family. He may become rich, but how will he enjoy it? The second man is no better. He has wasted his life in laziness. He has refused to develop himself and exists as a lazybones. Both men are worthy of

55、 pity.I think wed all agree the ideal would be somewhere in between these two people. So how do we find the abstract Golden Mean? It all starts with setting the right goals. Whenever you make a goal you need to do it with the right intention. Dont set goals with the intention to command other people

56、. Instead, try to start with a goal that is in between total selfishness and total selflessness. The next step to reaching the Golden Mean is knowing your limits. You need to know when one more project is going to stress you out. The idea is to maintain balance at all times. Another step to achievin

57、g the Golden Mean is being aware of your personal needs. Sure we need money and success, but having good relationships with friends and family are just as important. I know the Golden Mean is hard to live by, but it is the key to finding your inner confidence. Ben Franklin said, “The wise keep learn

58、ing from the mistakes of others, fools, scarcely from their own.” Next time you find yourself willing to do anything to be the best of the best, take a moment to reconsider. You may find it is better to be the best “you” you can be.What is the Golden Mean?Passage outlinePassage detailsProblems and s
