I remember a time l went shopping on my first visit to Hung Kong.Coming from cold and cloudy England,I was prepared for the sun and dressed in a T-shirt and a short skirt.Not having much chance to enjoy the sun in the UK and having naturally fair skin(白皙皮肤),my legs were very white.In the UK this is not a fashionable look at all.Most women spend every sunny day out in the suit trying to get darker skin.The darker the shin,the better the look.I have tried to get darker but nothing works for me!
As I walked around one shop,two shop girls didn’t take their eyes off me the whole time,talking quietly to each other in Chinese.I began to feel uncomfortable and asked my friend if we could leave.After we left the shop, she asked me what was wrong.I complained(抱怨)about the shop girls being very rude and always looking at my legs.I was embarrassed(尴尬) that they were talking about my white skin.My friend laughed,“They weren’t laughing at you.They were saying how nice your legs are.Many Chinese women want to have white skin like yours.In fact,there are many beauty products in the shops to make skin whiter and a lot of money is spent on them.”
It just goes to show that we are never happy with what we have.The grass is always greener on the other side.If the women of the West and East thought the same way,western women wouldn’t spend so much money on cream that makes skin darker and women from the East wouldn’t need to use cream that makes skin whiter.

Judy: But he just called and said he wouldn’t come today because it’s too hot. Ben: I can’t believe it! He always says, “We can do this and that….” Judy: Don’t you know him? He only pays lip service to what should be done but seldom does anything. Ben: I see. Let’s forget about him. We’ll have Tony and Sophie to help us soon. Judy: That’s great. So where should we start now? Should we pick up those bottles first? Ben: Sure, let’s go. 【小题1】Why are Ben and Judy at the beach?
