passage 2
—am on a diet. II IMy overweight is killing me. II Do these phrases sound familiar? They 'e said time and time again by young girls, who are constantly being pressured to look -perfect II.
But what makes a person -perfect I?
I dsay that a perfect pers on is some one who is happy and con fide nt, though our society and the media seem to thi nk differe ntly.
Everywhere you look, you see -perfect II images of what young girls should be. We 're shown images of perfect skin, perfect teeth, silky hair and a gorgeous (极好的)figure. And yet the same magaz ines and televisi on shows disagree with themselves by tell ing us that size 16 is no rmal.
The media put famous people un der even more pressure, expect ing far too much from them. Calista Flockhart, who plays Ally Mcbeal, is accused of being too thin, while Jennifer Lopez and Christi na Ricci are told they are overweight. The press makes impossible dema nds on famous people, and the n they attack them whe n they fail to live up to them.
They say that being thin will improve your self-esteem(自尊心),and suggest numerous diets. I wonder just how many people feel as though their self-esteem is actually being eaten away by hun dreds of smooth photographs they publish of perfect, air-brushed models.
None of us is perfect, and trying to be perfect just leaves you feeli ng bad about yourself.

B. They want to show off.
C. They are under pressure.
D. They are improving their life.
7. Which of the following has something to do with the statement -Size 16 is normal I?
A. Perfect sk in.
B. Perfect teeth.
C. Silky hair.
D. Gorgeous figure.
8. Why does the author think famous people are un der even more pressure?
A. Because they are expected too much by the public.
B. Because they are expect ing too much from life.
C. Because they are expect ing too much from people.
D. Because they are expected too much by the media.
9. Three famous people are men ti oned to show ________ .
A. how particular the media are about public figures for their image.
B. How in flue ntial they can be on the gen eral public.
C. How miserable they can be to the general public.
D. How important their image can be for the general public.
