American Facial Plastic Surgery Is Young to Turn
Internet data shows that younger adults have become the primary audience obsessed with television programs about altering people’s appearance. Once the domain of the female in her fifties, plastic surgery has become the obsession of the younger Internet users.
The recent tragic death of Stephanie Kuleba, an 18-year-old high school cheer leader who died as a result of a plastic surgery, brought our attention to the pursuit of a more " ideal" body amongst teenagers. In fact,search data confirms this phenomenon. One of the most popular sites visited from the search term "plastic surgery" is the official site of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (www. plasticsurgery. org). Over 25% of visitors to the site fell within the 18 to-24-year-old—that’s up from 19.6% two years ago.
Plastic surgery has become an American obsession. Checking other markets, such as the U.K. and Australia,the 18-to-24-year-old fascination with plastic surgery is a definitely U. S. phenomenon. Looking at other health related sites visited by 18-to-24-year- olds, reveals just how obsessed this age group is with appearance. Unlike the older groups who visit sites related to diseases and keeping healthy,younger Internet users flock to sites that dwell on personal appearance, such as those focused on body-building, weight loss and skin-care. And definitely plastic surgery.
While surgery-themed television may be driving the interest of a younger audience,one factor appears to be key in moderating teens from altering their bodies: the failing U. S. economy. If we track the trend in searches on topics such as "plastic surgery", there has been a sharp decline in all plastic surgery topics over the last year. It may very well be related to the noticeable income group of visitors—U. S. households that earn less than $ 30,000 per year. In fact, if we look at the search patterns around popular surgeries, over the last year the term "cost" appear most commonly.
While older age groups continue to search for information on procedures such as face-lifts or liposuction, it’s the younger Internet users who in tough economic times are focusing on improving their outer beauty, though at a discount price.
What is a cause for young people to pay attention to plastic surgery?
选项
A、The TV programs show the excellent result of plastic surgery.
B、There are so many plastic surgery websites on the Internet.
C、The school cheerleaders look so wonderful after plastic surgery.
D、Through plastic surgery, the fifty-year-old female can look so young.
答案
A
解析
事实细节题。由题干中的a cause for young people to pay attention to plastic surgery定位到第四段第一句。本句说:整容类电视节目可能引起了年轻观众对整容手术的兴趣,而且在第一段最后一句也说:青年人已经成了外貌转型类电视节目的主要观众群体,他们对外貌形象的改变很是着迷。因此[A]为正确答案。第二段说青少年喜欢在美容类网站浏览,但并没有说这类网站引起了他们对整容的兴趣,故排除[B];第二段中拉拉队队长的例子不能说明这是青少年对整容手术感兴趣的原因,故排除[C];文章没有说五十岁的女性整容手术的效果,故排除[D]。
