    If you've not heard that the decade-old princess-culture is causing problems—especially if you're a parent—you must be actively working to avoid it.

    The latest study adding fuel to the fire comes out of Brigham Young University and finds that the Disney princess obsession can be harmful to girls.

    “I think parents think that the Disney princess culture is safe. That’s the word I hear time and time again—it’s safe.” Lead study author Sarah M. Coyne of the Mormon institution in Utah noted in a press release. “But if we’re fully jumping in here and really embracing (accepting) it, parents should really consider the long-term impact of the princess culture."

    So, what’s the problem this time around? Same as always, confirmed the study, published in the journal Child Development, which involved the assessment of 198 preschoolers: Lots of engagement with princess culture (whether through moves or toys) can lead to gender-stereotypical(性别定性) behavior as well as self-critical body image.

    The strict gender stereotypes can hold girls back. “They feel like they can’t do some things,” Coyne said, “They’re not as confident that they can do well in math and science. They don’t like getting dirty, so they’re less likely to try and experiment with things.”

    On the other hand, “Disney princesses represent some of the first examples of exposure to the thin ideal,” Coyne said. “As women, we get it our whole lives, and it really does start at the Disney princess level, at age 3 and 4.”

    So, what should a parent do? Try his or her best to avoid all princesses for the entire of a girl's childhood? I'd say, have moderation in all things, have your kids involved in all sorts of activities, and just have princesses be one of many, many things that they like to do and engage with." Coyne suggested. “This study has changed the way I talk to my daughter, the things I focus on, and it's been really good for me as a parent to learn from this study,” Coyne said. “I usually can't say that my research findings have such a personal impact on my life."

    1.What do we know about the study?

    A. It proved that the Disney princess obsession is harmful.

    B. Sarah M. Coyne is the first one to do the research.

    C. It started a heated discussion among people.

    D. It suggested watching TV programmes of I lie Disney is safe.

    2.How many problems can the Disney princess culture cause according to the study?

    A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.

    3.What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 6 refer to?

    A. The Disney princess culture.

    B. The idea that girls can't do some things.

    C. The idea that girls should be thin.

    D. The problem the Disney culture causes.

    4.What advice does Coyne give to parents?

    A. Actively work on the old princess culture.

    B. Change their way they talk to their daughter.

    C. Avoid girls to watch any princesses.

    D. Have girls involved in all kinds of activities.

    It started as a special day for Wesley Autrey, a 50-year-old construction worker in New York City. It was about 12:45 P.M., and he was waiting on a subway platform (月台) to take his daughters home before he went to work. He suddenly noticed a man nearby have convulsions (抽搐) and fall down suddenly. Mr. Autrey and two women went to help the stranger. The man, Cameron Hollopeter, managed to get to his feet, but then stumbled (绊倒) at the edge of the platform and fell onto the subway tracks. Mr. Autrey looked up and saw the lights of the subway train coming near through the tunnel.

    Mr. Autrey jumped onto the track immediately. He realized that he didn’t have time to get Mr. Hollopeter and himself back up on the platform before the train arrived, so he lay on top of the man and pressed down as hard as he could. Although the driver tried to stop the train before it reached them, he couldn’t. Five cars passed over them before the train finally stopped. The cars had passed only inches from his head.

    New York loves a hero. Mr. Autrey became an overnight hero and was named the “Subway Superman”. New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg gave him the Bronze Medallion, the city’s highest honor. He was asked to appear on several TV talk shows. He was also rewarded with money and gifts, such as $10,000 from Donald Trump, a $5,000 gift card from the Gap clothing store, a new Jeep, and Beyonce concert tickets.

    How did Autrey react (反应) to all this? He said, “I don’t feel like I did anything great; I just saw someone who needed help. I did what I felt was right”.

    Five years ago, when I taught art at a school in Seattle, I used Tinkertoys as a test at the beginning of a term to find out something about my students. I put a small set of Tinkertoys in front of each student, and said:“Make something out of the Tinkertoys. You have 45 minutes today and 45minutes each day for the rest of the week.” A few students hesitated to start. They waited to see the rest of the class would do. Several others checked the instructions and made something according to one of the model plans provided. Another group built something out of their own imaginations.

    Once I had a boy who worked experimentally with Tinkertoys in his free time. His constructions filled a shelf in the art classroom and a good part of his bedroom at home. I was delighted at the presence of such a student. Here was an exceptionally creative mind at work. His presence meant that I had an unexpected teaching assistant in class whose creativity would infect(感染) other students.

    Encouraging this kind of thinking has a downside. I ran the risk of losing those students who had a different style of thinking. Without fail one would declare, “But I’m just not creative.”

    “Do you dream at night when you’re asleep?”

    “Oh, sure.”

    “So tell me one of your most interesting dreams.” The student would tell something wildly imaginative. Flying in the sky or in a time machine or growing three heads. “That’s pretty creative. Who does that for you?”

    “Nobody. I do it.”

    “Really-at night, when you’re asleep?”

    “Sure.”

    “Try doing it in the daytime, in class, okay?”

    1.The teacher used Tinkertoys in class in order to ________.

    A. know more about the students B. make the lessons more exciting

    C. raise the students’ interest in art D. teach the students about toy design

    2.What do we know about the boy mentioned in Paragraph 3?

    A. He liked to help his teacher. B. He preferred to study alone.

    C. He was active in class. D. He was imaginative.

    3.What does the underlined word “downside” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?

    A. Mistake. B. Disadvantage.

    C. Difficulty. D. Burden.

    4.Why did the teacher ask the students to talk about their dreams?

    A. To help them to see their creativity. B. To find out about their sleeping habits.

    C. To help them to improve their memory. D. To find out about their ways of thinking.
