Ⅱ.阅读理解

A

Being fat is a non­stop fight between not being noticed and attracting much notice.Sometimes you want to be accepted; instead, you're singled out and judged.In 2015, when I became the first plus­size designer to win Project Runway, I hoped it would be a moment not only for inclusive fashion, but also for all other fat human beings out there.It wasn't just me who had won; we'd won.Many women told me they were afraid to wear bright colors or show off their arms until they saw me doing it.But some of the words on the Internet were terrible: “Why did they pick that fat designer？” “How can she encourage such an unhealthy lifestyle？” I got sad and put on more weight.I reached a point where I couldn't climb stairs without losing my breath.

I finally realized that if I didn't take care of myself, I couldn't keep doing what I loved, so I went to see a doctor and started doing exercise every day.After that I got more judgment, this time from people in the fat group who once supported me.They turned their backs on me and said, “You can't be body positive and still losing weight.” I thought, “Well, why not? I wasn't trying to be ‘prettier’； I wanted to have control of my life.”

Size should not divide us, whether we are fat, thin, or anywhere in the between.I'm designing clothes for plus woman, but one day I might be open to designing straight sizes.People judge me for that, too.But I just want to create clothes that make people feel good.I want every woman to love herself and go after her dreams like I did.

【语篇解读】　本文是一篇记叙文。“我”在Project Runway节目中获奖时身体很胖，互联网上的一些评论使“我”感到难过，体重又增加了许多，但是“我”最后意识到“我”应该好好照顾自己才能继续做自己所爱的事情，于是“我”每天开始做运动来控制自己的体重。不管胖与瘦，“我”希望每个女人都像“我”一样爱自己并追逐自己的梦想。

One of the most successful, influential and beloved women in American history, Eleanor Roosevelt once said that she had one regret: she wished she had been prettier.Who hasn't felt the same way? We are all too aware of our physical imperfections.To overcome them, we spend billions upon billions every year.Why do we care so much about how we look? Because it matters.Because beauty is powerful.Because even we learn to value people mostly for being kind and wise and funny, we are still moved by beauty.

Aristotle said, “Beauty is a greater recommendation than any letter of introduction.” It's not fair, but it's true.We simply treat beautiful people better than we do others.Attach a photograph of a beautiful author to an essay, and people will think that it is more creative and more intelligently written than exactly the same essay accompanied by the photo of a homely author.As children, beautiful people are more likely to become favorites with parents and teachers.Later, they are more likely to get good jobs.Attractive people in need are more likely to receive help from strangers.

These days, women and men both rely on advanced technology to improve their beauty.Wrinkles can be stretched away with a facelift.Special injections can make lips look young and plump (丰满的)．Besides being a sign of youth, good skin also means that the person is likely to be healthy.Still, it is possible to go too far.At the end of the 19th century, some women even had their ribs (肋骨) removed so they'd have that perfect narrow waist.

Our sensitivity to physical beauty is not something we can control at will.We are born with it.Experiments showed that even small infants prefer to look at attractive faces.Before they have met a single supermodel, before they have watched a single TV show, before they have opened up a single fashion magazine, they are drawn to the same faces which adults have judged to be attractive.

There are more important things in life than beauty.But as Nancy Etcoff says, “We have to understand beauty, or we will always be enslaved by it.” If you aim to be wise and kind and funny, it doesn't mean that you can't also try your best to look beautiful.There's no reason to feel guilty about being moved by beauty's power.It moves us all.

【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了美丽可以给人带来很多好处。

5．Which of the following proverbs has the opposite meaning of Aristotle's sentence in Paragraph 2?

A．Never judge a book by its cover.

B．Act on second thoughts.

C．Leave your luck while winning.

D．Great minds think alike.

A　[推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Beauty is a greater recommendation than any letter of introduction.”可知，亚里士多德说：“美是比任何介绍信都要有用的推荐函”。A项(不要以貌取人)与之意义相反，故选A。]

6．The underlined word “homely” in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by         ．

A．attractive B．plain

C．beautiful D．handsome

B　[词义猜测题。根据第二段中的“We simply treat beautiful people better than we do others.”可知，画线词所在的句子是在为这个观点举例子，画线词所在句子中的than表示二者的比较，其中的一个是 a beautiful author，则另一个是长相一般的作者。故选B。]

7．According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?

A．People are all slaves to beauty.

B．Beauty can ensure good jobs.

C．Advanced technology helps improve beauty.

D．People value beauty over other virtues.

C　[细节理解题。根据第三段中的“These days, women and men both rely on advanced technology to improve their beauty.”可知，如今，男人和女人都依靠先进的技术来改善自己的美丽。故选C。]

A Few Tips for Self­Acceptance

We all want it... to accept and love ourselves.But at times it seems too difficult and too far out of reach.  1   Here's a handful of ways that will set you in the right direction.

●  2   Do not follow the people who make you feel not­good­enough.Why do you follow them？Are you hoping that eventually you will feel empowered because your life is better than theirs？Know that your life is your own；you are the only you in this world.

●Forgive yourself for mistakes that you have made.We are often ashamed of our shortcomings，our mistakes and our failures.  3    You will make mistakes，time and time again.Rather than getting caught up in how you could have done better，why not offer yourself a compassionate(有同情心) response？“That didn't go as planned.But，I tried my best.”

●Recognize all of your strengths.Write them down in a journal.Begin to train your brain to look at strength before weakness.List all of your accomplishments and achievements.You have a job，earned your degree，and you got out of bed today.  4 

●Now that you've listed your strengths，list your imperfections.Turn the page in your journal.Put into words why you feel unworthy，why you don't feel good enough.Now，read these words back to yourself.  5   Turn to a page in your journal to your list of strengths and achievements.See how awesome you are?

A．Feeling upset again?

B．Where do you start?

C．Nothing is too small to celebrate.

D．Remember，you are only human.

E．Set an intention for self­acceptance.

F．Stop comparing yourself with others.

G．When does the comparison game start?

【语篇解读】　文章主要介绍了一些自我接受的小技巧。

1．B　[由空前内容可知我们都想接受并爱自己。但有时它似乎太困难，太遥不可及。由空后一句“Here's a handful of ways that will set you in the right direction.”可知，空处指你应从哪儿开始，B项符合语境。]

2．F　[本空是段落主题句。由空后的两个问句可知本段主要讲不要和他人对比，故F项(停止与他人作比较)符合语境。]

3．D　[根据段落主题句可知，本段主要讲要原谅自己所犯的错误。根据空后一句可知你会一次又一次地犯错，即你只是个人，是人都会犯错，D项符合语境。]

4．C　[本段主要讲要认识到自己的优点并列举出你的成就，由空前一句“You have a job，earned your degree，and you got out of bed today.”可知，再小的事也应庆祝，C项符合语境。]

5．A　[根据空前的“list your imperfections”“read these words back to yourself.”再结合空后内容可知，阅读描写自己缺点的词会使自己感到沮丧，A项符合语境。]
