(B) The following text is about the importance of our appearance (外观，外表)．Read it and answer the questions．(15 marks)
How important is our appearance to us? According to some surveys，it is more important and more dangerous to our health than we would like to think．Every period in history has had its own ideas of what is and what is not beautiful．In the 19th century in the West，being beautiful used to mean having a very small waist (腰)．Women wore very tight clothes which caused numerous health，problems related to breathing and eating difficulties，and even broken bones! At the same time in China，women with small feet used to be thought of as beautiful，so their feet were tied to stop them growing．This caused terrible pare．
But．we are still hurting ourselves today，and all because of what society sees as beauty．Our biggest influence is from the media (such as TV，movies and magazines)．Every day we see"beautiful" people (mostly women and young girls) on TV and in magazines．making these kinds of looks seem real and normal．These looks are difficult for people to copy．Today's media ideal of thinness for women is possible for less than 59/6 of women today．And the effects on health are just as serious as they were in the past．More young girls are trying lots of different diets (节食方式)，many seeing themselves as too fat when they are of normal weight or even below average (平均的) weight．In one American survey，81％of ten-year-old girls said that they had dieted at least once，in a Swedish study 25％of seven—year-old girls had dieted and similar studies in Japan showed that 41％of elementary school girls—as young as six years old—said that they thought they were too fat．
This need to look like the women in magazines has led to illnesses called eating disorders (进食失调／饮食紊乱)．Young girls—and boys—of today should reject the standards set by the media．Doing so will allow them to feel good about themselves for who they are．
