16．Alice Wilder，a 17-year-old student at Northwest School of the Arts in North Carolina，considers herself a feminist （女权主义者）．She is one of 26bloggers for SPARK，an international group founded in 2010．The group fights the use of the female body as a marketing tool in the media．
Alice found out about SPARK when the organization launched a campaign demanding Seventeen Magazine feature a more diverse group of models．She applied to be a blogger for the group in May and won one of the positions．
Each month，Alice pitches （为…做宣传） her girl-and women-centric blog post ideas via online chat to an editor at SPARK．So far，she has written about topics such as female actresses，choosing what to wear，and dealing with anger．
Alice said she hopes large companies and media stop editing images of women．Increases in bust （胸部） size，decreases in waist size，smoothing and whitewashing skin are what Alice notes．"We want them to know that these images are bad for our development，"Alice said．"Three out of four teen girls feel bad about themselves after reading a fashion magazine for three minutes，"she said，according to SPARK's research．
Alice first felt it necessary to advocate （倡导） for women in the fifth grade，after seeing a girl's T-shirt with writing on the front that read："Who needs brains when you have these？"
"I was raised with this idea that if you don't like something，you can change it，"Alice said．So Alice started following feminist bloggers．
Alice juggles class work with blogging and creating videos and serves as editor-in-chief of her school's newspaper．It is amazing that she can handle everything well at the same time．
She's also focused on creating projects that aim to inspire girls-like designing a"girl power bathroom"at her school．The newly designed third-floor restroom is completed with pastel paint colors and inspirational （启发人的） quotes from women around the world．

15．You may not pay much attention to your daily elevator ride．Many of us use a lift several times during the day without really thinking about it．But Lee Gray，PhD of the University of North Carolina，US，has made it his business to examine this overlooked form of public transport．He is known as the"Elevator Guy"．
"The lift becomes this interesting social space where etiquette （礼仪） is sort of odd （奇怪的），"Gray told the BBC．"Elevators are socially very interesting but often very awkward places．"
We walk in and usually turn around to face the door．If someone else comes in，we may have to move．And here，according to Gray，lift users unthinkingly go through a set pattern of movements．He told the BBC what he had observed．
He explained that when you are the only one inside a lift，you can do whatever you want-it's your own little box．
If there are two of you，you go into different corners，standing diagonally （对角线地） across from each other to create distance．
When a third person enters，you will unconsciously form a triangle．And when there is a fourth person it becomes a square，with someone in every corner．A fifth person is probably going to have to stand in the middle．
New entrants to the lift will need to size up the situation when the doors slide open and then act decisively．Once in，for most people the rule is simple-look down，or look at your phone．
Why are we so awkward in lifts？
"You don't have enough space，"Professor Babette Renneberg，a clinical psychologist at the Free University of Berlin，told the BBC．"Usually when we meet other people，we have about an arm's length of distance between us．And that's not possible in most elevators．"
In such a small，enclosed space it becomes very important to act in a way that cannot be understood as threatening or odd．"The easiest way to do this is to avoid eye contact，"she said．

A．remind us to enjoy ourselves in the elevator

Last Tuesday，the Students'Union in our school advised that Senior Two students shall do something specially for their parents on their 18th birthdays．All the students are active in responding it and most of them have come up with their ideas．Some choose to write the letter saying it's the best way to express their appreciations as well as love for their parents．Others will prefer to cook a big meal to show that they've already grown up．
As for me，I want to do up hair and wash feet for my parents．By doing which my parents have been doing for me I can really know how much they've devoted to bring me up．Being 18years old mean that we should learn to be independent and that we should be responsible for us．

11．The revolution was over by the time Tom Ford started working in the fashion world．The expensive fashion design houses such as Channel，Yves Saint Laurent，and Christian Dior，which earned money by designing and making very expensive custom clothes，had lost many of their wealthy customers．To stay in business，they started selling more reasonably priced ready-to-wear clothing along with a wide range of accessories（配件），that is，related products such as shoes，bags，watches．All of these products needed to blend（融合） with the clothing and with each other so that they made up a brand that everyone would recognize and wanted to buy．Though they did not use that name，each company needed a"master designer．"
Born in Texas and growing up in Santa Fe，New Mexico，Ford had a diverse background in the arts．Soon after completing high school，he moved to New York，where he studied art history，trained as an actor，and worked as a model．Following that，Ford completed a program in indoor design，but later decided that he was more interested in designing clothes than in decorating house．He was hired by the firm Cathy Hardwick in 1986，where he began to work as a fashion designer．His talent stood out from the rest and soon he moved to Perry Ellis，where he became design director．Then in 1990he made an important move by taking a position with the New York branch of Gucci，the famous design house based in Milan，Italy．
During his first years at Gucci，the company was going through a very difficult period．Its products were once considered highly desirable，and were worn by famous women such as Grace Kelly，Audrey Hepburn，and Jacqueline Kennedy．However，by the early 1990s they had lost their reputation for quality．Other producers had started making cheap，widely available imitations of the brand，and the sales of Gucci's own products had dropped．Things were so bad at one point that Ford was almost fired．However，some people at the company believed in his talent，and in 1994they hired him to work in Milan as the creative director for the entire company．In this position Ford had artistic control over all of the company's products，as well as its advertising and the design of its stores．Under Ford's direction，Gucci's reputation for cutting-edge style soon returned，and the company began to recover．The style shows starting in 1994were wildly successful．People loved the low-cut velvet pants，unbuttoned silk shirts，and shiny boots in metallic colors．By 1999Gucci，which had almost gone out of business，was worth over $4billion．
When Gucci bought Yves Saint Laurent，Ford became creative director for that fashion house while continuing to design for Gucci．When asked how he would be able to keep the two styles apart，Ford said it wasn't a problem and offered a comparison．Yves Saint Laurent was like Catherine Deneuve，he said while Gucci was more like Sophia Loren．Both are sexy and beautiful women，but with very different styles．
Ford left Gucci and Yves Saint Laurent in 2004to form his own company called simply"Tom Ford"．Not long after，he was working together with cosmetics producer Estee Lauder to bring out new beauty products，and then developed and sold a perfume（香水） under his own name．His plans for the future？Ford says that someday he'd definitely like to make a film．He puts it his way："That is the main design project．You don't just get to design what people wear，but you design the whole world and whether characters get to live or die．There is what fashion lacks．
