This change is often accepted by some sooner than others. What is attractive or trendy in one situation may be seen as shocking or tacky in another. In Western society, tattoos are an example of this.,Fifty years ago, a tattoo was a symbol of nonconformity. A person with a tattoo was seen as devious and offensive. This began to change in the 1960s, as many standards for dress, grooming, and behavior began to change. Rock n roll musicians were among the first to wear tattoos as a way to rebel against societys rules. Eventually, athletes, models, and movie stars also began to wear tattoos.,TextA-2,Text A,Today, tattoos are seen on all types of people. For many teenagers, tattoos are an expression of individuality and self-confidence. Smaller, more subdued tattoos are hardly even noticed. It is too early to say that tattoos have achieved total social acceptance. A tattoo could still be a “career-killer” in more conservative professions such as banking or finance. However, plenty of people are now entering the business world with tattoos they got as students. Eventually, these people will become business leaders, and the style will be more acceptable. When we see a tattoo on a president or prime minister, we will know that tattoos have finally arrived.,devious,devious,adj. departing from the correct or accepted way 犯错误的，步入歧途的 Achieving success by devious means is not accepted by most of us.

Do you think most people are self-conscious about how they look? Why or why not? 2. Read the article about female body image. What do you think is expressed in the song lyrics?,TextB-1,Text B,What makes a girl beautiful? The lines above are from the song “Not Pretty Enough,” written and performed by Kasey Chambers, an Australian folk-rock singer and songwriter. The words tell us a lot about what its like to be female in a society in which media such as television, movies, and magazines define what it means to be beautiful. In cultures where success and happiness are equated with being thin and attractive “just like models or movie stars,” many young women are left feeling either invisible or fat and unaccepted.,The average fashion model is 5 feet, 11 inches (1.83 meters) tall and weighs 117 pounds (53 kilograms). The average woman is 5 feet, 4 inches (1.65 meters) tall and weighs 140 pounds (63.5 kilograms).,WHO DEFINES BEAUTY? “Am I not pretty enough? Is my heart too broken? Do I cry too much? Am I too outspoken? Dont I make you laugh? Should I try it harder? Why do you see right through me?”,TextB-2,Text B,It might not surprise you to read that 75% of women in the United States think that they are “too fat.” But many people do not realize how these ideas about body image have affected teenagers and children. You dont have to look much farther than a billboard sign, magazine advertisement, or popular television show to see how girls and women are being presented and to understand how it affects them. On average, U.S. children age eight or older spend almost seven hours a day watching television, playing video games, or reading magazines. Studies have revealed these trends:, If they had just one wish, girls ages eleven to seventeen say they would wish to be thinner. Between the ages of ten and fourteen, the percentage of girls who are “happy with the way I am” drops from 60% to 29%.,TextB-3,Text B, 80% of ten-year-old girls are on diets. Between 5 and 10 million teenage girls and young women have an eating disorder extreme dieting that can be dangerous to their health. Teenage cosmetic surgeries more than doubled in the last decade and are growing at an alarming rate. 70% of girls say they have wanted to look like an actress. About 30% have actually tried to.,Young people can benefit from realizing how much they are being targeted as a consumer group and how media messages are used to either sell them products or convey messages about body image, self-esteem, social values, and behavior.,equate,equate,v. consider, treat, or depict as equal or equivalent 同等对待 We should not equate inexperience with youth.
