And then one day a sudden thought came through me like a lightning bolt.“This is an industry that uses anorexic（厌食的）models to sell diet food to teenage girls.”My life changed.

making this problem;I wanted to be part of the people who had solution.But I had no idea what the solution looked like.My grandfather used to say,\with what you know,and more will be revealed.\

I knew the film,television and advertising industries and almost everything about them. So I started going into junior high schools.I held up pictures of the models to show what they looked like at five o'clock in the morning,and then held up another picture showing what they looked like after three hours of professional make-up,thirty-five lighting technicians,and professional photographers who can make anyone look beautiful and sexy...Not to mention the efforts of post-production,where they airbrush nearly all of the imperfection parts right out of the picture.With digital technology,they can even stretch the models to make them appear taller and thinner.

I talked to young girls and said,\dollars a year proving to you that there is something wrong with you so that they can sell you something to fix it.So I am here to tell you that your teeth are white enough...And your breath is fresh enough...and your thighs are thin enough.You are enough.\

You are enough,no matter what others say and what happens. 21.Why did the author quit working in the commercial company? A.He was fed up with his work in advertising industry.

Intelligent people are more likely to trust others,while those who score lower on measures of intelligence are less likely to do so.Oxford University researchers based their finding on an analysis of the 'General Social Survey'.

The authors say one explanation could be that more intelligent individuals are better at judging characters and may spend more time building relationships with people they can trust.Another reason could be that smarter people are better at weighing up situations and assessing whether or not the other person will hold up his or her end of a bargain. “Intelligence is shown to be linked with trusting others.”said the study's lead author,Noah Carl of Oxford University,“This finding supports what other researchers have argued,namely that being a good judge of character is a distinct part of human intelligence.”

In addition,the study shows that individuals who are more trusting are also happier with their lives and had higher levels of physical health.The Oxford researchers found,however,that the links between trust and health,and between trust and happiness,are not explained by intelligence.The findings confirmed that trust is a valuable resource for an individual,and is not simply a measure of intelligence.

The authors say the research is significant because the study of social trust could have far-reaching implications in public welfare,as social trust contributes to the success of important social institutions,such as welfare systems and financial markets.

According to Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development,trust is in increasingly short supply in current generation.This decline threatens world leaders’ ability to handle some of today's key challenges like global warming,and the political system.There are good reasons to think that governments should try to develop more trust in society.

Distrust usually causes friction in personal relationships,careers and politics among others,says Stephen Covey. Although majority of people say that trust can never be restored once it's broken,Stephen feels it can be brought back. \your behavior,not just things you say.\

24.It can be concluded from the analysis of the General Social Survey that . A.intelligent people tend to show more trust in others
