    Nowadays people are making themselves beautiful in Korean ways.

    “Thank goodness you have double eyelids(双眼皮). Your parents will save a lot of money.” said a family friend when I was five years old. Double eyelids, which almost all the white people have, are rare among Northeast Asians. Only 25% of South Koreans are born with double eyelids.

    I never quite understood how having double eyelids saved my parents money until this summer. When I came back to Seoul, everywhere I noticed cosmetic surgery clinics(整形诊所) and advertisements with South Korean women—tall, thin, with milky skin, long legs, nice big eyes and perfect noses. I found that South Korean beauty meant looking as “white” as possible.

    Cosmetic surgery has a kind of magical attraction(吸引) to women — the promise of beauty. Women are often sure that suffering is necessary and worthy in order to be beautiful. This suffering is not for nothing. It is believed that beauty leads to attracting a better-looking partner, which then leads to a better-looking child and a better life.

    Appearance is starting to be more important in work places. People with good appearance can have more chances. For example, my 29-year-old brother, who is slim and very tall, gets more job chances than his best friend, who is short and heavy, though both of them came from the same college, had the same good marks in their studies. In fact, many South Koreans believe that physical beauty equals happiness.

    1. How many South Koreans are born with double eyelids?

    _______________________________________________________________________

    2. When did the writer understand having eyelids saved his parents money?

    _______________________________________________________________________

    3.Does cosmetic surgery have much attraction to women according to the writer?

    _______________________________________________________________________

    4.What kind of people can get more job chances?

    _______________________________________________________________________

    5.What do you think of cosmetic surgery?

    F. Scott Fitzgerald, born on September 24, 1896, an American novelist, was once a student of St. Paul Academy, the Newman School and attended Princeton University for a short while. In 1917 he joined the army and was posted in Alabama, where he met his future wife Zelda Sayre. Then he had to make some money to impress her.

    His life with her was full of great happiness, as he wrote in his diary “My own happiness in the past often got such joy that I could share it even with the person dearest to me but had to walk it away in quiet streets and take down parts of it in my diary.”

    This side of paradise, his first novel, was published in 1920. Encouraged by its success, Fitzgerald began to devote more time to his writing. Then he continued with the novel the Beautiful and Damned (1922), a collection of short stories Thales of the Jazz Age (1922), and a play The Vegetable (1923). But his greatest success was the novel The Great Gatsby, published in 1925, which quick brought him praise from the literary world. Yet it failed to give him the needed financial（财政的） security(安全，保障). Then, in 1926, he published another collection of short stories All the Sad Young Men.

    However, Fitzgerald’s problems with his wife Zelda had an effect on his writing. During the 1920s he tried to reorder his life, but failed. By 1930, his wife had her first breakdown and went to a Swiss clinic. During this period he completed novels Tender Is the Night in 1934 and The love of the last Tycoon in 1940. While his wife was in hospital in the United States, he got totally addicted to alcohol（酒精）. Sheila Graham, his dear friend, helped him fight his alcoholism.

    a. He became addicted to drinking.

    b. He studied at St. Paul Academy.

    c. He published his first novel This Side of Paradise.

    d. The Great Gatsby won high praise.

    e. He failed to reorder his life.

    f. He joined the army and met Zelda.

    A. f-c-e-a-b-d B. b-e-a-f-c-d

    C. f-d-e-c-b-a D. b-f-c-d-e-a

    2.We can infer from the passage that Fitzgerald_______.

    A. had made some money when he met Zelda in Alabama

    B. was well educated and well off before he served in the army

    C. would have completed more works if his wife hadn’t broken down

    D. helped his friend get rid of drinking while his wife was in hospital
