I was certain I would find you here if you were still alive. Twenty years is a long time. The old restaurant

However, have you ever wondered the negative(消极的)ideas that theyve broughtI

46、n April 2016, the Advertising Standard Authority(ASA) in Britain stopped an ad from Gucci that has models dancing around and having fun, because the models in the ad were all quite thin. (Gucci, a famous brand(品牌)in the fashion industry and the company in question, said, It was a personal idea as to

47、 whether a model looked unhealthily thin. It isnt new to us. The ASA stopped an ad in the year 2015 for the same reason. In France, it has been ruled that models are to provide a doctors note which could prove that they are at a healthy weight.This brings up the question of weight, a hot topic for s

48、ome people. What is the healthy weight for models? While I couldnt find an exact number, I did find this. According to ABC News, Twenty years ago, the average(平均)fashion model weighed 8 percent less than the average woman. Today, she weighs 23 percent less. This is worrying. When has it ever been ok

49、ay for anyone, models included, to weigh less than the average?People may think that being at an unhealthy weight will help him have the advantages that the models do. This provides a standard of beauty, and therefore people who want to achieve those things may try to do this through unhealthy ways.

50、 People may also think that they are overweight, compared to the images(形象)of models thin bodies. They see something wrong with their bodies, whether they are overweight or not. This may make people feel bad, unconfident about their bodies. Sometimes people may have eating problems.Im not blaming(指责

51、)the fashion industry. Its not their fault(错误)that many people look up to the models and expect to live a life like their. I am glad that the ASA is raising its voices when discussing the growing problem of body image in the fashion industry. By stopping the photos and videos, speaking out against t

52、hem and pushing for doctors notes from the videos, its pushing for the idea that the traditional fashion industrys body image standard should be changed and something more needy to be questioned.1What does Gucci mean by what it says?AGucci has the right to choose models they like.BGucci has lost a l

53、ot of money.CGucci feels sorry for not choosing the right models.DGucci shouldnt be blamed as therere no exact weight standards.2The numbers mentioned in Paragraph 3 show that .Apeople dont know why models weigh lessBmany women are eating less to become thinnerCweight problems of the models are more

54、 seriousDbeing too thin causes health problems to models3What does the fourth paragraph mainly talk about?AThe advantages of having a thin figure.BThe bad influence of models thin images.CThe methods for having a good image.DPeoples thoughts towards models images.4Whats the possible purpose of the A

55、SAs measures(措施)?ATo improve the working conditions models are traced with.BTo set new standard of models body imageCTo make people have a proper idea of body image.DTo keep us the good tradition in the fashion industry.F18、 A day is made up of hundreds of small decisions. Ill wear this; Ill buy thi

56、s; Ill have this for lunch; Ill go there at 3 oclock; Ill reply to this e-mail.For some people, its not a big deal. For others, however, making decisions isnt easy. They agonize over what to do, changing their minds back and forth. and second guessing themselves even after the decision has been made

57、.Emily was in the restaurant with her husband. After several minutes of reading the menu , she said , Um , lets see. I dont know what to order. Maybe Ill have the burger; no wait, the pasta seems good. Or, maybe the soup and salad. Don, what are you ordering? OK; that sounds good ; Ill have that too

58、. Don often gets annoyed (恼怒的) .He doesnt understand why she finds the simplest decisions so difficult. He sometimes makes decisions for the two of them. But Emily gets annoyed with him for being so controlling. But wed never decide anything if I left it up to you, he argues.Good decision-making is

59、a skill that comes easily to some people, not so easily to others. Choices are confusing. Choices can make you anxious. They can cost you peace of mind, even after youve made the decision. The skill of good decision-making has become increasingly important. Why? Because we have a lot of choices, bot

60、h with the simple and the serious things in life.Decisions force us to close the door on other possibilities. Accept that you cant have it all. You cant order every delicious dish on the menu. And there will be paths not taken, things not experienced. Let the past be. Live in the present where what
