But when Amy, an exchange student in Beijing from the US, first saw this, she found it strange, even impossible to understand. She wrote on her blog, Unlike Chinese women, American women like to put on their tank tops and sunglasses during summer. If you walk around an American college campus2, you will probably see girls out on the grassy fields reading, but they really hope to get a head start on their summer tan3.This may be caused by the different standards of beauty between the US and China. Many Americans dont want white skin. They would rather be tanned3. Amy also wrote, Having darker skin is so popular that many women and men will pay for fake4 tans so that they can keep their sun-kissed appearance during the winter months, too.Why do they like tanned skin? Michelle Louis reported in her research, The process of tanning can help make peoples skin smooth and hide marks. She further explained, Tans make peoples skin appear healthier and make them appear thinner than when they have pale skin.Perhaps there is no real ideal standard of beauty. In different cultures and at different times of history, the standards change. On Amys blog, she also gave two examples: Some women carried parasols around trying to keep their white skin in the US 150 years ago; During the Tang Dynasty in China, heavy women were thought attractive. But now, Chinese women prefer to be slim.In a word, different standards of beauty should be respected. People may grow up with only one idea of what beauty is, but it doesnt mean that its necessarily the correct or the best idea.New words:parasol n. umbrella used to protect people from the sun 阳伞campus n. grounds of school, college or university校园tan n. the brown colour of sun-kissed skin 晒成的棕褐become brown by the sun 晒成棕褐色，晒黑fake adj. not real 假的（1）What did Michelle Louis report in her research? A . Many Chinese prefer white skin to tanned skin.B . Darker skin is popular among American women and men.C . Tans make peoples skin appear healthier and make them look thinner.D . Some women would like to keep their skin white in the US 150 years ago.（2）Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A . People in the US like to have tanned skin only in hot summer.B . American college girls read on the grass because they want to be tanned.C . Many Chinese women carry parasols to protect themselves from the sun.D . Amy thought trying to keep white skin with parasols seemed strange at first.（3）The writer really wants to tell us .
