What do you think being beauty really means？ All answers to that question are correct，because there are no right or wrong replies． Despite（不管） what society tries to make us believe， there is no "ideal" beauty． There are exact standards﹣hair colour， or eye colour﹣that make someone beautiful． Think about it： did you consider someone to be really beautiful， but your friend didn't see it？ That's because what's attractive to one person isn't necessarily going to be attractive to another． So how can we believe thatthere's a standard for beauty？ It makes no sense．Weight﹣loss companies and clothing industries seem to have made it their goal to get us believe that we are not enough and that we need all kinds of things to be prettier． It's not true! Companies sell us this ideas for their products to make money． I'm not saying that buying beauty products is bad， but what would be bad is using them because you feel like you have to look a certain way in order to be "beautiful"．Remember， the people wear tons of make﹣up and are photoshopped in order to look perfect． When you see a girl who society considers as a "great body"， you have to remember that people have different body types and everyone's body is different． We're all beautiful， whether we're slim， thickset or anywhere in between． If you want to lose weight， go ahead， but do it in a healthy way and do it for the right reason﹣not because you want to fit in． Being comfortable with yourself is really important， and being with others who accept you as you are and don't ask you to change to look a specific（特定的）way is important too．七、完成句子按所给的汉语，用英语完成句子，并将答案写在答题卡对应题号的横线上．（本大题共6小题，每小题1.5分，共9分）37.
