Answer the questions(根据以下内容回答问题)

Mary Donaldson is worried about her 16-year-old daughter, Sophia. Six months ago, Sophia came back from a party, upset and unhappy. From then on, she thought of nothing but how to lose weight and become beautiful. She refused to eat and kept on doing exercise. Sophia had always been a little heavy, so when she decided to go on a diet, Mary encouraged her. She felt that her daughter would look more attractive if she lost 10 kilograms. However, Sophia has lost 20 kilograms until now. Her eating and exercising habits are having a harmful effect on her health. She is too thin and is often sick.

Her mother is trying to prevent her from going on a diet and losing weight, but Sophia thinks that she is still too heavy and refuses to eat as usual. Sophia’s mind is full of the idea of looking like a model(模特). Every day she goes to a club to do exercise. When she is not there, she spends her time reading magazines like “Fashion & Beauty”(《时尚与美》). The models in these magazines are very thin and beautiful. Sophia says, “If I look like models, I will be happy and all the boys will like me.”

Mary doesn’t know how to help her daughter. She feels sorry for having encouraged her at first, because Sophia no longer feels good or pleased with her body. She’s afraid that Sophia will never be happy if she keeps comparing herself with the models in the magazines. Mary tries to tell Sophia that true beauty comes from within. Common people are not supposed to look like models. The most ordinary face becomes beautiful when the person is filled with confidence, wisdom and the joy of life.
