The law, approved last March in Israel, requires models to prove they have maintained a Body Mass Index (BMI) of at least 1

22、8.5 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 innocent young peo

23、ple 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 work.” said eati

24、ng 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 that only legislat

25、ion(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 weight and health

26、.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 difficult recovery e

BCRecently,a competition making up Versailles literature was launched on Sina Weibo. So what is Versailles literature?Actually, the term has nothing to do with the French palace nor

31、with literature. It came from The Rose of Versailles, a Japanese comics series about aristocratic(贵族化的)life at the palace of Versailles in France in the late 18th century, and was coined by a Chinese influencer earlier this year. Known as humblebragging, it is a boast(吹牛)pretended as a complaint. “I

32、 have too many houses. How can I decide which one to decorate?” and “I thought I lost weight this morning. So disappointed when I realized it was because I took off the huge diamond ring my boyfriend gave me last night” are some examples of Versailles literature. The intention is to show off - usual

33、ly things of materialistic values, yet one ought to pretend thats not the point.As the 19th century English author Jane Austen famously wrote, “Nothing is more cheating than the appearance of modesty.” The psychology behind humblebragging is to be recognized for ones successes and be liked by others

34、 at the same time, according to scholars. In her article titled Why do people hate humblebragging? published in Psychology Today, psychologist Dr. Susan Krauss Whitbourne at the University of Massachusetts Amherst noted that humblebragging is a “strategy in search of respect” because it draws attent

35、ion to ones accomplishments in a circuitous way. 来源#:中国教育&出版网%However, studies on social media users show that humblebragging as a self-promotion strategy does not work. In the essay Humblebragging: A distinct and ineffective self-presentation strategy, the University of North Carolina researcher Ov

36、ul Sezer and Harvard University scholars Francesca Gino and Michael Norton concluded from their research that humblebraggers are thought more negatively than straight braggers due to the formers insincerity. “The critical factor differentiating the two groups of people is sincerity. People dont like

37、 braggers, but they at least see them as more sincere than humblebraggers,” said Francesca Gino.So, how can we annoy humblebraggers back? “Just pretend you dont get whatever it is they try to show off,” a netizen advised. “And respond with genuine sympathy for their complaints.”8. Which of the follo

38、wing statements is typical of “Versailles literature”?A. You know who my father is? My father is Li Gang.B. Got five offers to date. Im at a loss which to choose.C. Its a headache how to make my son tidy up his room regularly.D. Im fed up with living in the countryside with no shopping malls around.

39、9. What is the psychology behind humblebragging?A. To win others sympathy.B. To earn others admiration.C. To show his/her sincerity.D. To mask his/her complaint.10. What does the underlined world “circuitous” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. indirect.B. straightforward.C. unclear.D. double-edged.11 W

40、hat cant be inferred from the passage?A. Braggers are relatively more sincere than humblebraggers.B. Humblebragging is an artificial appearance of being humble.C. To respond with real sympathy will discourage humblebraggers.D. If you want to be viewed positively, avoid using Versailles literature.【答

41、案】8 B 9. B 10. A 11. DDResearchers from the MIT Media Lab, Boston Childrens Hospital, and Northeastern University used a robotic teddy bear, “Huggable”, across the Boston Childrens Hospital. More than 50 hospitalized children were divided into three groups that involved Huggable, a tablet-based virt

42、ual Huggable, or a traditional toy teddy bear. In general, the robotic Huggable improved various patient outcomes over the other two choices.When first designed, Huggable was operated remotely by a specialist outside a child s room for the moment. Through software, a specialist could control the rob

43、ots facial expressions and body actions. The specialists could also talk through a speaker with their voice automatically changed to sound more childlike and monitor the participants via camera.中国教育出版网#%&During the treatments involving Huggable for kids aged 3 to 10 years, a specialist would sing nu

44、rsery rhymes to younger children through the robotic bear and move the arms during the song. Older kids would play the I Spy game, where they had to guess an object in the room described by the specialist through Huggable. Through self-reports and questionnaires, the researchers recorded how much th

45、e patients and families liked Huggable. A greater percentage of children and their parents reported that the children enjoyed playing with Huggable more than with the virtual figure or traditional teddy bear.The study proved the possibility of including Huggable in the treatments for children. Resul

46、ts also showed that children playing with Huggable experienced more positive emotions overall. They also got out of bed and moved around more, and emotionally connected with the robot, asking it personal questions and inviting it to come back later to meet their families. “Such improved emotional an

47、d physical outcomes are all positive factors that could contribute to hospitalized children s better and faster recovery,” the researchers write in their study.The study also provided a basis for developing a fully autonomous Huggable robot which is the researchers final goal. In the future, that automated robot could be used to improve children s further treatment and care, and monitor their well-being.12. What can we learn about Huggable?A. It was first designed for disabled kids.B. It can make facial expressi
