An Israeli law banning too skinny odels went into effect with the start of 2013. The law, approved last arch in Israel, requires odels to prove they have aintained a Body ass Index (BI) of at least 18.5 for three onths before a fashion sho That eans a woan who is 5'8'' tall can weigh no less than 119 pounds.
“This law is another step in the war against eating disorders,” said physician Adatto. “Underweight odels,” he explained, “can no longer serve as role odels for innocent young people who copy their false iage of being skinny.”
But soe critics in this country say it is isguided, focusing on weight instead of health. They also say the Israeli ban is bound to fail because of the strong power of the fashion industry. “I think it’s an approach that isn’t going to work.” Said eating disorder expert Susan Ice, who worked with an organization which creates a healthy working environent for odels.
But Adatto told the reporter that he began to concern the issue after eeting an abitious odel who looked like she needed to be hospitalized. He said. “I realized that only legislation can change the situation. There was no tie to waste, so any girls were dieting to death.”
However, the efforts to regulate odels’ weight in Spain and Italy have not resulted in significant changes in part because of difficulties in deterining reliable ethods of easuring weight and health.
Still, folks including Ice say there’s no denying that iages fro Hollywood and the fashion industry can be difficult for young woen to deal with. “Certainly I don't believe the odeling industry has caused the rise in eating disorders, but it akes it harder,” she says. “It’s a difficult recovery environent, worshiping thinness as the beauty ideal.”

A. A new show held by those skinny odels.
B. A worldwide prize for the healthiest odel.
C. A easure of body health based on height and weight.
D. A kind of edicine to cure eating disorders.

A. to change the working conditions of odels
B. to prevent odels fro suffering fro eating disorders
C. to lower the chance of skinny odels’ death
D. to provide guidance for woen worshiping thinness
58. In the opinion of the critics, the law won’t succeed because .
A. the fashion industry is uch too influential
B. it isleads young woen to for a bad eating habit
C. it doesn’t provide a proper approach that can work well
D. it doesn’t create a healthy working environent for odels
59. According to the passage, the new Israeli law banning skinny odels is .

After the id-ter exaination, a parents’ eeting will be held in our school. Parents’ eetings are often held to help parents contact the school and teachers and iprove the students’ studies, but different people have different ideas. Here are our views on parents’ eetings.
ost students think it is of great iportance to have the eeting for parents to know ore about their children at school. What is ore, parents can get soe good advice and useful inforation fro teachers. On the contrary, a inority of students hold the view that it is useless because they think their parents ay know their poor arks and iproper behavior at school.
In y opinion, to understand children better, parents should keep in touch with teachers, so parents’ eetings are quite necessary.
