control the talking pace and time 应该和to indicate a change of topic并列,作为conversational traffic signal 的定语,也要用动词不定式。To be called beautiful is thought to name something essential to women’s character and concerns. (In contrast by men whose __1__ essence is to be strong, or effective, or competent.) It does not need someone in the throes of feminist awareness to perceive that __2__ the way women are taught to be involved in beauty encourages __3__ narcissism, reinforces independence and immaturity. Everybody knows __4__ that. For it is “everybody”, a whole society, which has identified __5__ being feminine with caring about how one looks. Giving these __6__ stereotypes, it is no wonder that beauty enjoys, at best, a rather mixed reputation.
- ~& e+ K' o1 c/ K, }5 j. E& S It is not, of course, the desire to be beautiful is wrong but the __7__ obligation to be. Women are taught to see their bodies in parts, and to assess each part separately. Breasts, feet, hips, waistline, neck, __8__ eyes, nose, complexion, hair, and so on – each by turn is submitted __9__ to an anxious scrutiny. Even if some pass the scrutiny, some will always be found wanted. Nothing less than perfection will do. __10__: Q4 c; z, P( ^
