Hillwood Museum was once the home of Marjorie Merriweather Post. She was a rich businesswoman. She owned one of the largest food companies in the United States. She was also very interested in collecting beautiful French art and furniture.

How Important Is Fashion?
Is looking fashionable more important than being comfortable? Many people seem to think so, judging by the things they wear. But fashion is not everything. It is more important to be a healthy and good person.
People go to great lengths to be fashionable. Some people think they have to have a certain body type, so they go on extreme, unhealthy diets in order to change their bodies. In addition, many women wear uncomfortable fashions, such as high-heeled shoes that create blisters(水泡), tight body shapers that limit blood flow, and sticky false eyelashes(假睫毛). Men and women alike spend time and money on produces that change their natural hair color and use hot irons and blow dryers to curl or straighten their hair. Some people spend several hours a day in front of a mirror. Is fashion important enough to spend so much time and effort on changing how you look like?
If the purpose of fashion is to make a person feel good, it does not make sense that he or she would go through so much discomfort to be fashionable. Fashion should not come first. People should prioritize(优先考虑)being healthy and positive. What people wear does not indicate anything about their personalities. Instead of going on strict diets and starving, why not eat some healthy foods and then exercise? By doing these things, you can keep a healthy lifestyle and truly grow as a person.
(1)The author's main purpose in writing the text is to .
A.show readers advantages and disadvantages of dieting
B.persuade readers to value health more than fashion
C.entertain readers to value health more than fashion
D.inform readers of the latest fashion trends
(2)Which statement best represents the author's viewpoint?
A.Fashion can make people do some unhealthy things.
B.Fashion increases famous people's self-respect.
C.When you look good, you feel good.
D.People need to diet to lose weight.
(3)Which of the following activities would the author most likely recommend?
A.Shopping for bargain clothes.
B.Starting a new diet with a friend.
C.Going skating with friends.
D.Changing the hairstyle every week.
(4)Why does the author include questions in the text?
A.To enrich the content.
B.To introduce a new topic.
C.To reflect different attitudes.
D.To make readers think and give their opinions.

【题目】阅读理解
A handshake is one of the most common ways to greet others, but US President Donald Trump's unusual method has been put under the microscope lately.
Much like an arm wrestler in a match, the recently-elected leader has a habit of yanking (猛拉) people's hands toward himself during handshakes. And while a typical handshake is only brief, the one between him and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe on Feb 10 lasted a full 19 seconds.
Simply having a strong hand is not the explanation here. According to Darren Stanton, a body language expert from the UK, while handshakes are usually an exchange of kindness, Trump uses his as a way to show power and control, regardless of how uncomfortable it makes people. “It is as if to say, 'Hey, I'm in charge, don't mess with me,' ” Stanton told The Independent.
Apart from Trump's “yank-shake”, there are other ways people display power with their hands. At business talks or political meetings, for example, some people may rotate (旋转) their wrists during handshakes so that their hand ends up on top instead of underneath. Some may squeeze so hard that it leaves the other person's hand in pain.
According to Stanton, by pulling people into his personal space, Trump is also testing whether they are willing to cooperate with him. “For example, if someone was resistant to being yanked towards him and stood their ground, he would know that he has work to do with them before he got what he wanted,” Stanton told Express.
This is probably why on Feb 13 when Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau visited the White House, all eyes were on how he was going to handle Trump's handshake. Fortunately, Trudeau managed to avoid the embarrassment by grabbing Trump's shoulder to stop himself being pulled in. Afterward, some Twitter users wrote that this proved Trudeau's strong leadership, with one even calling the moment “one of Canada's greatest victories”.
Vice magazine summed up the exchange between the two leaders as: “... no regular handshake. This was the first shot in a bloodless war.”
(1)According to Darren Stanton, Trump uses his “yank-shake” to _____.
a. show his kindness
b. gain control
c. remind people of his status
d. see if people are cooperative
e. get people to lower their guard
A.bcd
B.abc
C.ace
D.bde
(2)The phrase “stood their ground” in Paragraph 5 probably means _____.
A.going ahead
B.standing still
C.turning around
D.pulling out
(3)According to the text, the way Trudeau reacted to Trump's handshake _____.
A.annoyed Trump
B.displayed his power
C.was considered rude
D.was likely to start a war
(4)What can be concluded from the text?
A.Some people spin their wrists during handshakes to show extra respect.
B.Handshakes are the most preferable way for political leaders to greet others.
C.The way someone shakes another person's hand can have different meanings.
D.The longer two people shake their hands, the better their relationship is.
