Ⅳ.阅读理解
A
In our world today, the media and entertainment industries are constantly focusing on beauty over brains. Movies, television shows, commercials, and magazines all utilize models and actors whose physical attributes will sell their product.
As our country becomes more obsessed with trying to reduce the obesity numbers, eating disorder statistics continue to increase due to the push for thinner people. While obesity is a serious medical condition that can lead to
many health problems, many of us try to lose weight for appearance purposes. Children as young as elementary school age have begun to worry about the numbers_that_appear_on_the_scale. In my opinion, it seems that “fat” has become the new “ugly”．
Two weeks ago, 37-year-old Wisconsin television reporter Jennifer Livingston, with 235 pounds, received an email from a man named Krause. In the email Krause attacked her, writing, “Your physical condition hasn't improved for many years. Surely you don't consider yourself a suitable example for this community's young people, girls in particular.”
Today, it seems that a vast majority of people care more about how they look and appear to their peers rather than what is on the inside. The truth is that every person is built differently; we all come in different shapes and sizes. Just because someone is heavier doesn't mean they eat large amounts of junk food and lounge around all day. Likewise, even though a person is thin, that doesn't mean they are necessarily healthy and fit.
If you are reading this and you struggle with your weight or your appearance, please recognize that you are beautiful and special in your own way. You are worth so much more than you realize, and even if I don't know you, understand that I respect and support you. Beauty is not defined by size; it is defined by how we treat others and respect ourselves. In the words of the talented film actress Kirstie Alley, “There's a lot more to life than how fat or thin you are.”
语篇解读：当全民都在减肥的时候；当很多人认为“胖了会很丑”的时候，作者给出了自己的看法：内在美远比外表形象重要，内在美才是真正的美。
1．With so many people losing weight, what result will it end in? A．Models' and actors' appearance in ads.
