As Reese Witherspoon once said

18、while announcing the Oscar for best make-up, 4movie stars look just like people in documentaries(纪录片) if you see them without make-up.I was once invited to a private party where about half of the guests were stars and the other half entertainment reporters. Guess what? The good-looking ones were the

19、 reporters because they tend to be young, and they glow without make-up.Some idols are born; some are made. Most idols are created by a machine called the entertainment industry. They may have some charms and talent, but not enough to become famous. They are the raw material out of which a star, or

20、even an idol, is made. An army of behind-the-scenes assistants will hype(炒作) or even make up their virtues and hide their shortcomings.Paris Hilton is the kind of star who possesses no real talent but yet is quite well-known. This is the result of endless hype. If you are thrust into the limelight o

21、ften enough, you can become a celebrity without having any talent.Television contest shows create a much fairer more transparent platform where young people can compete and showcase their talent.

His doctor wanted him to lose 50 pounds so that he may be a good football game player by the end of the summer.Jones chose the popular Dance Revolution video game at home to increase his activity. He had lost about 10 pounds by changin

26、g his diet. Now, after two weeks playing the game, he has lost another 10!A health study is being done by an insurance company. The company hopes that the game will lead to better health and lower costs. “Obesity claims (肥胖索赔) last year cost us $ 77 million. We have to cut those costs,” said a membe

27、r of the insurance group. The company provides a game console (游戏主机), a dance mat and software for the six-month, $ 60,000 study.The study is more than a commercial thing of an insurance company. It is widely supported by physical education and health professionals.In West Virginia, 43% of the nearl

A te

29、acher in West Virginia has been using the video games in her classes since last fall.

30、 putting the game in 20 schools to control childhood obesity. Well, are you going to try such to dance away your extra weight?61.

33、e equal degree of health and wealth and other comforts of life, one becomes happy and the other becomes unhappy. This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, events and the resulting effects upon their minds.People who are to be happy fix their attention on the conveni

34、ence of things: the pleasant parts of conversation, the well prepared dishes, the goodness of the wine and the fine weather. They enjoy all the cheerful things.

35、ey sour the pleasure of society, hurt many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere. If this turn of mind was founded in nature, such unhappy persons would be the more to be pitied. The intention of criticizing and being disliked is perhaps taken up by imitation. It grows into a habit, un

36、known to its possessors. The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it realize its bad effects on their interests and tastes. I hope this little warning may be of service to 7them, and help them change this habit.Although in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination, it has

37、serious results in life since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck. Those people hurt many others; nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect. This frequently puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments. If they aim at getting some adva

38、ntages in social position or fortune, nobody wishes them success. Nor will anyone start a step or speak a word to favor their hopes. If they bring on themselves public objections, no one will defend or excuse them, and many will join to criticize their wrongdoings. These should change this bad habit
