25、Have you ever wished you could change something about your body? If so, you’re not alone.

Many people use apps like Meitu Xiuxiu to improve photos before posting them on social media. Some teenagers are even having plastic surgery (整容) at an early age. Zeng, a senior 2 student from Chengdu, had a double eyelid surgery done this summer. She and many of her classmates believe bigger eyes look more beautiful.

As teenagers’ bodies grow and change, ▲ . They are very worried about it. This can be harmful to their health. According to Huxiu News, over 60 percent of girls refuse to take part in some daily activities such as going to school, because they feel bad about their looks. As much as 31 percent of teenagers do not want to speak up in class because they worry that others will notice their looks.

One of the main causes is advertising, TV shows and social media. Pictures of “perfect” faces and bodies are everywhere. They suggest that having large eyes, pale skin and skinny bodies is the only way to be beautiful. Magazines give tips about how to lose weight “in days”. Advertisements suggest that you should whiten your skin using certain products. And TV shows often make fun of overweight characters. Seeing these can make people believe that they should change their bodies.

So what should we do? According to Nancy Etcoff of the Harvard Media School, “We need to help young people in many ways. These ways can include educating students about body confidence in school, as well as encouraging parents to talk to their kids about his topic.

26、   Some kids don't like organized sports because they were once on a team and they didn't have fun. Maybe all of the other kids seem to know what they are doing and you don't feel sure. Or maybe you don't like the stress of competition against other teams.where you know one team is going to win and the other is going to lose. Sometimes kids on a team get so excited about winning that they may shout or get upset at a player who makes a mistake. This can be stressful—especially when you make a mistake !

But everybody makes mistakes sometimes and no one should complain about it. If they do,it's a good idea to talk with the coach or your mom or dad.

Parents and coaches can also get upset about a game situation and put too much pressure on kids.Kids might feel confused and stressed out during games if they' re not quite sure what they should be doing.

But team sports can also be great. Kids get to improve their skills and feel that team spirit as they work together towards a common goal. If you've had a bad experience with a team,maybe it's time to try a new sport or a new group.

C. Because they don't feel sure about the competition.

D. Because the stress of competition.

27、   We can make mistakes at any age. Some mistakes we make are about money, but most mistakes are about people. “Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen?” “When I got that great job, did Jim really feel good about it, as a friend? Or did he envy my luck?” “And Paul — why didn't I pick up that he was friendly just because I had a car?” When we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad. But when we look back, it's too late. Why do we go wrong about our friends — or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning. And if we don't really listen, we miss the feeling behind the words. Suppose someone tells you, “You're a lucky dog.” Is he really on your side? If he says, “You're a lucky guy” or “You're a lucky gal,” that's being friendly. But “lucky dog”? There's a bit of envy in those words. Maybe he doesn't see it himself. But bringing in the “dog” bit puts you down a little. What he may be saying is that he doesn't think you deserve your luck.

How can you tell the real meaning behind someone's words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking. Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says square with the tone of voice? His posture? The look in his eyes? Stop and think. The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake.

D.the word “dog” shouldn’t be used to describe a person

【3】The passage tries to tell you how to ________.

A.avoid mistakes about money and friends B.bring the “dog” bit into our conversation

C.be friendly to other people D.avoid mistakes in understanding what people tell you
