When I lived in France last year, my friends and I decided to have a "friends giving" in November because we were so far away from our families. We decided to have the dinner at my friend Brigitte's apartment in Paris. There was only one problem. It was difficult to get a turkey because French people don't celebrate Thanksgiving. The day before our "friends giving" dinner, Brigitte and I went to four different markets to look for a turkey. It took us five hours, but we finally found one. We were so excited!

The next day, everyone brought different foods from their home country to share. There was Moroccan (摩洛哥的) food, Italian food, German food, and of course French food. While we waited for the turkey to cook, we played cards and told stories. That's when we heard a loud BANG! We all ran to the kitchen. There was water everywhere. The water pipes under Brigitte's kitchen sink were broken. The kitchen was filling with water very fast.

"Jack, you all grab the food and run to the roof (屋頂)!" Brigitte yelled. We took all the food, plates, drinks and silverware and ran to the roof. Brigitte ran outside to turn off the water. That's when we realized the turkey was still in the oven. We ran to the flooded kitchen, grabbed some gloves, and pulled the turkey out of the oven.

In the end, we all had an amazing "friends giving" dinner on a Parisian rooftop with all of our good friends. The turkey was a little darker and "crispy" but still delicious.

Body image—the way people feel about their looks — is a big problem for many young people today. According to a study, more than half the teenage girls in the USA think they should be on a diet (節(jié)食). 1.

But what's the cause? In the study, many blame (責(zé)備) the media (媒體). Turn on the TV and you'll probably see beautiful models, handsome actors and healthy and strong sports stars. Open a magazine or a newspaper, look through the Internet, and it's usually the same.

Many young people feel pressure to look like these "perfect" people. 2. In the USA, the average woman is 163 cm tall and weighs 64 kilos, but the average model is 180 cm tall and weighs 53 kilos.

When people don't match up to these standards, they may become less confident. 3. Students can lose so many confidence that they start to stop taking part in classroom activities at school.

4. In the UK, for example, women over 50 spend more money on cosmetics (化妝品) than any other age group. Older men spend a lot of money trying to avoid hair loss. Is there a solution to the problem? A 2016 study in the UK suggested that body image lessons should be provided in schools. Others believe it's a problem that all of society needs to deal with. 5.

A.But for most, this is just not possible.

B.Some stop eating properly in order to lose weight.

C.But most of the adults don’t pay attention to it at all.

D.Body image problems don’t disappear as we get older, either.

E.When we get older, maybe we more care about our health and safety.

F.They suggest we need to judge people by what they do, not what they look like.

G.And almost 20% teenage boys are worried about their bodies and weight.
