Rome, Paris and New York are the world's top fashion cities, all of which have produced some of the top trends, form high-low skirts to the hottest new shoes. However, have you ever wondered the negative(消極的)ideas that they've brought

In 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 whether a model looked unhealthily thin." It isn't 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 doctor's note which could prove that they are at a healthy weight.

This brings up the question of weight, a hot topic for some people. What is the healthy weight for models? While I couldn't 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 okay 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. 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.

I'm not blaming(指責(zé))the fashion industry. It's not their fault(錯(cuò)誤)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 them and pushing for doctors' notes from the videos, it's pushing for the idea that the traditional fashion industry's body image standard should be changed and something more needy to be questioned.

1.What does Gucci mean by what it says?

A. Gucci has the right to choose models they like.

B. Gucci has lost a lot of money.

C. Gucci feels sorry for not choosing the right models.

D. Gucci shouldn't be blamed as there're no exact weight standards.

2.The numbers mentioned in Paragraph 3 show that .

A. people don't know why models weigh less

B. many women are eating less to become thinner

C. weight problems of the models are more serious

D. being too thin causes health problems to models

3.What does the fourth paragraph mainly talk about?

A. The advantages of having a thin figure.

B. The bad influence of models' thin images.

C. The methods for having a good image.

D. People's thoughts towards models' images.

4.What's the possible purpose of the ASA′s measures(措施)?

A. To improve the working conditions models are traced with.

B. To set new standard of model's body image

C. To make people have a proper idea of body image.

D. To keep us the good tradition in the fashion industry.
