In order to increase their job chances after college, Chinese students are turning to a special practice—Eiffel Tower nose jobs (鼻整形手术). The latest trend in plastic surgery promises to create a nose that is similar to the curve of the Eiffel Tower.

Surgeon Wang Xuming said: “We are influenced by the beauty of the Eiffel Tower. We are not content to just add something to the nose; we reconstruct it.” The surgery costs about US$ 10,000 and involves the enlarging of the nose using tissue from the forehead.

Hundreds of posters advertising the procedure are put up all over Chongqing city, where surgeon Xuming runs his private practice. They show a western-looking woman with an almost-too-perfect nose, against an outline of the Eiffel Tower.

Interestingly, many young women in China are eager to achieve a western appearance, as they believe it will give them an advantage in the highly competitive job market. “Some students face a lot of employment pressure after graduation. If their facial features are good, they’ll have more chances of finding a job,” said surgeon Xuming. “We’ve had students getting the Eiffel Tower nose; it’s helped them a lot.”

Apparently, Chinese employers are quite particular about appearances and prefer attractive candidates. Some of them even go as far as putting height and weight requirements in their employment ads. Plastic surgeons across the country are reporting an increase in the number of students choosing beauty “improvement”.

According to a Mr. Li, hospital manager at surgeon Xuming’s clinic, most of their customers are female and the bill is taken care of by the family. “They usually come in with their mothers, and tend to be from well-off backgrounds.” he said.

Personally, I don’t think it so important to “improve” our appearance as long as we are skilled at our jobs. We can’t decide how we look, but we can decide how well we live and work.

1.Why do Chinese college students choose to have a nose operation?

A. To have more chances of getting a job.

B. To gain a real westerner appearance.

C. To Take good care of their family.

D. To look like the Eiffel Tower.

2.What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 3?

A. The city of Chongqing.

B. A plastic surgery procedure.

C. The posters advertising the surgery.

D. Xuming’s private practice.

3.What can we learn from Mr. Li’s words?

A. Most families can’t afford the expensive operation.

B. Their customers are usually from wealthy families.

C. Patients can be well looked after at the clinic.

D. The number of plastic surgeons is increasing.

4.Which of the following will the author probably agree with?

A. Chinese employers only care about their employees’ appearance.

B. Chinese students are content with the shape of their noses.

C. A western face looks prettier than a Chinese one.

D. Skills at work speak louder than appearance.

Pupils are ordered not to wade into ankle-deep water unless teachers first carry out a full risk assessment and put“proper measures in place”.

Staff are expected to check rivers, ponds and the sea for currents and rocks before allowing children to dip their feet.

Guidance issued to schools warns that any“impromptu (事先无准备的) water-based activities”could pose dangers to children.

The recommendations were outlined in a document-available to all 21,000 schools in England — to help teachers organize more school trips. Advice from the Department for Children, Schools and Families is intended to cut red tape (官样文章) and give staff practical tips.

But the guidance caused argument after teachers were presented with a series of orders surrounding swimming and the use of minibuses.

It said:“Swimming and padding or otherwise entering the waters of river, canal, sea or lake should never be allowed as an impromptu activity. The pleas of young people to bathe — because it is hot weather, for example, should be resisted where bathing has not been prepared for.”

“In-water activities should take place only when a proper risk assessment has been completed and proper measures put in place to control the risks.”

Teachers are urged to check the weather, currents, weeds, rip tides, river or sea beds and breakwaters before allowing children into the water. No child should be able to swim deeper than waist height, the guidance added.

Margaret Morrissey, from campaign group Parents Outloud, said:“Wading out into the ocean is one thing but there’s nothing wrong with padding where the waves break.”

“Part of children’s learning is to walk along the water’s edge and get your feet wet. There are dangerous currents further out and you stay at the edge.”

She added:“I want to see schools and youth groups taking advantage of opportunities that learning outside the classroom can provide.”

But the Department for Children, Schools and Families said teachers had to plan activities carefully.

“We are not banning padding,”said a spokeswoman.“We have seen cases in the past where things have not been planned and assessed for the risk. Unplanned activities around water can be dangerous.”

1.Guidance issued to schools in England gives the information that _________.

A．school trips to oceans are forbidden in the country

B．school swimming pools should be surrounded with fence

C．school staff must plan water-based activities carefully

D．school children shouldn’t have a walk along river banks

2.Advice from the Department for Children, Schools and Families shows us that _________.

A．they are strongly against the guidance

B．they are fond of the outline of the guidance

C．they don’t understand the aim of the guidance

D．they want the guidance to become more useful

3.To the guidance, Margaret Morrissey holds the opinion that _________.

A．oceans are dangerous place for children to visit

B．young people should be encouraged to learn outside

C．children should learn padding in rough ocean alone

D．schools should stop students from walking along beaches

4.Which of the following can be the best title for this passage?

A．No padding on school trips, children told.

B．No walking along the rivers, teachers told.

C．No swimming after school, parents told.

D．No learning out of school, students told.
