Freezing to Death for Beauty
People in Beijing wear a lot of clothing during winter to fend(抵御) off the cold. In the United States, however, people wear (51) , partly because the ear is the primary mode of transportation. Cars take (52) straight to their workplaces, which are heated well. The American diet is full of calories, so their (53) can afford to burn heat more quickly.
Fewer layers of clothing give people the opportunity to stay (54) . Lots of Yale girls wear skirts (55) when it’s 10 degrees Centigrade(摄氏温度的) outside. Some of them at least wear boots, tights(裤袜), and leg-warmers(暖腿套). Some, however, really just go for(选 择) the look (56) the risk of health. These girls have nothing to prevent their legs (57) the wind, and no socks to protect their feet. A mini skirt and a pair of stilettos(细高跟鞋) are all that they wear.
Typically, the ones pursuing fashion are (58) , with little body fat. Just by the nature of their bodies, they are already at a disadvantage compared with normal people in (59) weather. I have always (60) , whenever I pass these girls, how they manage to refrain from shivering and just smile like spring had arrived.
And then there are the guys, The girls can be said to (61) health for beauty. . But why do guys (62) so little? It is not like, once they shed(脱掉) some layers, they suddenly become better-looking. They are not exactly being fashionable when they (63) wear sporty (花哨的) shorts and shower slippers in the midst of winter. It’s not cute (喜人的).
Of course, people have the freedom to look whatever (64) they want. I am just surprised that, given the vast difference between winter and summer temperatures in Connecticut, they can still (65) like they are partying on the beach in the middle of February.
