Unit Two
Trends and Fads Introduction
Fashion is something popular among people during certain time, but it is always fun and interesting to see how style, trends and fads change our lives over the years and how they even try to make a comeback in our society.Everyone remembers a favorite toy or something popular that he or she grew up with, but they have moved out of life with the paing of time.
Exploring the Topic
1.Do you think fashion is good or not? In my opinion, fashion is good for the following reasons.First of all, it makes life different from time to time, thus enriching our life by providing with something new and colorful.Second, it helps us make choices while shopping.Third, it helps promote busine and the national economy.2.Why do people like to follow the fashion? To follow the fashions seems to have become the general trend among young people in the modern society.But if we analyze the reasons, the following points should be taken into account.Firstly, they don’t want to be considered out-of-date.Secondly, they have a strong desire to show they are different from others.Last but not the least, they are curious about and interested in anything that is new.Background Information
The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), located in Atlanta, Georgia, USA, is an agency of the Department of Health and Human Services.It is recognized as the leading federal agency for protecting the health and safety of people—at home and abroad—providing credible information to enhance health decisions, and promoting health through strong partnership.CDC serves as the national focus for developing and applying disease prevention and control, environmental health, and health promotion and education activities designed to improve the health of the people of the United States.The British Virgin Islands Comprised of 36 islands in the Caribbean (16 of which are inhabited); about 113 kilometers east of Puerto Rico, north of the Leeward Islands, and adjacent to the U.S.Virgin Islands; principal islands are Tortola, Virgin Gorda, Anegada and Jost Van Dyke.In 1666, British planters took over control of the island group from the original Dutch settlers.The Islands attained the status of British colony, and remained part of the Leeward Islands from 1872 until 1956, when the British Virgin Islands became a separately administered entity.In 1967, a new constitution provided for a ministerial system of government headed by a Chief Minister.The island group remains under British control today..Section A
