Part 1 教材原文助读
It's all about ME!
“Me”.It's a small word with big meaning, and that meaning is as individual to each of us as the way we look.Through interviews, I was able to discover what “me” means to other people, and how they have learnt to appreciate the beauty in themselves.
Psychologist①, Dr. Hart
what和 how均引导宾语从句,作discover的宾语。
①psychologist n.[C]心理学家
psychology/saI'kɒlədʒi/n.[sing.]心理,心理过程;[U]心理学
一切都关于“我”!
“我”,这个小小的字有着十分丰富的含义。对于我们每个人来说,它的意义就像我们的外表一样是因人而异的。通过采访,我得以发现“我”这个字对其他人意味着什么,以及他们是如何学会欣赏自己的美的。
心理学家,哈特博士
Jade, 24, accounting② manager
As a song in Ugly Betty puts③ it, “It's a pretty person's world”.I understand this more than most, as I have always been plain-looking④.I'm a girl who'd love to look good.Well, who wouldn't? So, ever since I discovered selfie apps that could remove⑤ my freckles, enlarge⑥ my eyes and even slim⑦ my jawline, I have become addicted⑧.I spend hours every day editing my selfies, posting them and eagerly checking my phone a hundred times for comments.Each “like” boosts⑨ my confidence.Dad thinks I am a narcissist⑩,but what I say is that my pictures aren't hurting anyone, so who cares?
as引导方式状语从句,意为“正如”。
as引导原因状语从句。

[拓展] as...puts it正如……所说

[构词法] -looking常用于构成复合形容词,表示“看上去……的,长相……的”,如good-looking(adj.漂亮的,好看的)。
⑤remove vt.除去,消除,清除
⑥enlarge /In'lɑːdʒ/vt.& vi.(使)增大,扩大

杰德,24岁,会计经理
正如《丑女贝蒂》中的一首歌曲所唱的那样,“这个世界属于好看的人”。我比大多数人更明白这一点,因为我一直相貌平平。我是个爱美的女孩。好吧,谁不是呢?所以,自从我发现自拍软件可以祛除我的雀斑,放大我的眼睛,甚至可以修瘦我的下巴轮廓时,我就沉溺其中了。我每天花几个小时修我的自拍照,发布它们,并且频繁地打开手机,迫切地查看评论。每一个“点赞”都增强我的自信。爸爸认为我太自恋,但我的解释是,我的照片不伤害任何人,所以管它呢?
Dr. Hart says:
Obsessive⑪ online photo editing⑫ indicates a lack of self-confidence⑬ and a desire for attention⑭.However, the image Jade presents⑮ to obtain the praise of others is false.People who pretend⑯ to be someone they are not tend to misjudge⑰ themselves.
who引导定语从句,修饰people;“they are not”为省略了关系词的定语从句,修饰someone。

⑯pretend/prI'tend/v.假装,装作
⑰misjudge/ˌmIs'dʒʌdʒ/vt.对(人或情况)判断错误
misjudgment n.[C,U]判断错误
哈特博士说:
沉迷于修饰上传到网络的照片是缺乏自信并渴求关注的表现。然而,杰德为获得他人赞美所呈现的形象是虚假的。那些把自己包装成别人的人,往往会对自己产生错误的判断。
Anthony, 21, college student
I never really cared about my appearance.That's why I could never understand my sister, who has 17 lipsticks and can't decide which one to use every morning.I only used to have five identical⑱ pairs of trousers and five identical shirts.When I first moved into my dormitory⑲ at college,this made my roommates⑳ quite confused as they saw me in the same clothes day after day.Last month they registered me for㉑ a TV programme, A New You.It felt bizarre㉒ at first.I didn't like being reviewed from head to toe㉓.But I was surprised at how good I looked after the makeover㉔!For the first time in my life I saw myself as a handsome and well-presented young man.At that moment, I perceived㉕ that external beauty㉖ isn't totally worthless㉗. It can be an expression of our personalities,helping us make a good and positive impression on others.
本句属于“That's why...”句型,表示“那就是……的原因”。其中who引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词my sister,该定语从句中“which one to use”作 decide的宾语,属于“疑问词+动词不定式”结构。

安东尼,21岁,大学生
我向来不太在乎自己的外表。那就是我永远无法理解我姐姐的原因,她有17支口红,然而每天早上都无法决定用哪一支。我以前只有五条一模一样的裤子和五件一模一样的衬衫。当我第一次搬进大学宿舍时,我的室友们看到我日复一日地穿同样的衣服,都感到很困惑。上个月,他们给我在一个叫《全新的你》的电视节目中报了名。一开始(我)感觉很奇怪。我不喜欢被人从头到脚地审视。但经过一番装扮后,我对自己的良好形象感到惊讶!我人生中第一次觉得自己是一个英俊且风度翩翩的年轻人。在那一刻,我意识到外在美并非毫无价值。它可以表达我们的个性,帮助我们给他人留下良好、积极的印象。
Dr. Hart says:
It's true that inner beauty is very important 10,but external beauty shouldn't be completely overlooked㉘.It plays a part in the image we present to the world, and making an effort with your appearance can leave a positive first impression on others and boost your confidence.
10 it是形式主语,真正的主语是that引导的从句。
㉘overlook/ˌəʊvə'lʊk/vt.忽视,忽略
哈特博士说:
内在美固然重要,但也不应该完全忽略外在美。外在美在我们呈现给世界的形象中扮演着重要的角色。努力提升你的外表可以给别人留下积极的第一印象,也能增强你的自信。
Emma, 17, senior high school student
Ever since I was little, I've been larger than other girls.For a long time, this really bothered㉙ me.People would stare at㉚ me because I was “big” and I hated the way I looked.My anxiety drove me to㉛ try every means possible to lose weight, including dieting and weight-loss pills, but this brought me nothing but㉜ pain and poor health.Everything changed when one day I came across the success story of a plus-size model, Tess Holliday.Although she's larger than most other models, she's
really attractive㉝ and has the confidence to be herself—even in an industry full of beauty stereotypes㉞.Her story changed my ideas about what it means to be beautiful 11.I realised that my health, mental and physical, is the most important thing.Now I exercise a couple of times a week but just to keep fit.I mean, isn't it better that I'm large and happy, instead of skinny㉟ and unhealthy?12
11 what引导宾语从句,作介词about的宾语,what在从句中作means的宾语;其中it为形式主语,真正的主语是不定式短语to be beautiful。

㉟skinny/'skIni/adj.极瘦的,皮包骨的
埃玛,17岁,高中生
从小我的体格就比其他女孩大。在很长一段时间里,这着实困扰着我。人们会盯着我看,因为我是“大块头”,我讨厌我的样子。我的焦虑促使我尝试一切可能的方法去减肥,包括节食和吃减肥药,但这给我带来的只有痛苦和不健康。有一天,当我偶然读到大码模特特丝·霍利迪的成功故事时,一切都改变了。尽管她比其他大多数模特的体格都要大,但她确实很有吸引力,并且有信心做自己——即使是在这个对美充满刻板印象的行业。她的故事改变了我对美的看法。我意识到,自己的身心健康才是最重要的事情。现在我每周锻炼几次,但只是为了保持健康。我的意思是,我又壮硕又快乐,总比瘦却不健康要好吧?
Dr. Hart says:
I completely agree with Emma—being healthy is beautiful, and we should wear㊱ that beauty with confidence.What I really admire is the way she has acknowledged㊲ that good health not only makes us more beautiful, but happier, too!13
13 本句的主干是What I really admire is the way;what引导主语从句;“she has acknowledged...happier,too”是定语从句,修饰先行词 the way;that引导宾语从句,作acknowledged的宾语。
㊱wear vt.熟词生义接受
㊲acknowledge vt.承认(某事属实或某种情况存在)
哈特博士说:
我完全赞同埃玛——健康是美丽的,我们应该自信地接受那种美丽。我真正欣赏的是她认可健康的身体不仅使我们更美丽,还使我们更快乐!

A
There are over 8 billion people in this world, with more than 8 billion different opinions about outer beauty. What you may find physically attractive can be an absolute eyesore to someone else and vice versa. And this is truly magical because it implies that regardless of a person's physical features, there is always going to be someone out there who finds them appealing.
Nowadays there are many ways you can manipulate the way you look. Plastic surgery (整容手术) and other cosmetic procedures are becoming more and more accessible and affordable. This is absolutely incredible for people who really need body changes to improve their mental health.
Sadly, with social media being a massive part of our lives, far too many people are struggling with self-image issues not because there is something wrong with them, but because they are convinced they need to look a certain way to be accepted by society. So they delve into (钻研) the world of plastic surgery and they slowly lose their identities in order to fit in.
In reality, what we should be encouraging is not altering our bodies, but remodeling our mindset. We should become more aware of the way we treat others and ourselves. We should be inspired to learn more languages, so we can dive into different cultures and expand our limits. Instead of spending money on looking like someone else, spend time in becoming the best version of yourself, because outer beauty fades, but the beauty within is timeless.
As noted by the book A Conscious Rethink, when asked about what traits (特性) they look for in a potential long-term partner, most people name things that have nothing to do with physical appearance. Some of the features we seek most are kindness, loyalty, patience, integrity, a good sense of humor, and a supportive nature.
All of these traits can be found in anyone, regardless of the outer beauty they possess. More importantly, these are personality characteristics we seek in those we see as our potential life partners, meaning that we value them more than we value a pretty face.
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇议论文。文章主要说明了整容手术和其他美容手术受欢迎的原因,并论述了外在美会褪色而内在美才永恒的观点。

Like the rest of us,scientists have long suspected the healing capacity (修复能力) of a good hug.Unlike the rest of us,they've gone about trying to prove it.
“Laboratory studies suggest that things like hugs help us feel safer.They can also make us less sensitive to physical pain and less reactive when we're faced with threatening experiences,” says Michael Murphy.He is a research professor in the Department of Psychological Sciences at Texas Tech University.“This lab work has shown that hugs and other touch behavior are related to stress.The more stress we have,the more our heart rates and blood pressure go up.At this time,hugs and other forms of personal touch may give off all sorts of feel-good chemicals,so that stress can be reduced.”
“There's a lot that we still need to learn,and there's a lot we don't know,” Murphy says.“However,what seems to be rising up is that hugs,as well as other forms of loving and gentle touch,are really powerful.They remind people that they're cared about and that they have someone in their corner.”
“We expect touch.When we were born,we were placed in our mothers' arms almost immediately.In that first year of our life,we spend a lot of time being held by other people.And as we grow up,we seek out hugs and touch as a way of connection.I think what we have lost in the past few years are these really easy opportunities to be reminded of connection.”
While he was at Carnegie Mellon University,Murphy was the lead author of a hug-centered 2018 article in the scientific journal PLOS One.In a series of interviews with 404 adults over a two-week period,the researchers found that receiving a hug is associated with the attenuation_of negative emotions that occur on days with interpersonal conflicts.That is to say,generally,hugs help to reduce the negative impacts that personal conflicts may cause in our daily lives.
