Eating disorder is ve ry common now. "When I first wrote about this. the problem was pretty much hidden … I didn't expect it to get as bad as it is." Susie Orbach, an international authority(權威)on eating disorders, said.

Orbach must at times think the anti-diet message of her book “fat is a Feminist Issue(女權主義問題)”has been lost since it was written more than 20 years ago.

Girls, boys, old people --even the famously well-rounded female population of Fiji are falling victims(犧牲品) to fat fear.

"If anything, the situation has got much, much worse. We now have kids as young as eight and women in old people's homes worried about the way they look." Orbach said.

Even though it has been proved that repeated dieting results in a little more than regaining most of the lost weight, constant dieting has become a way of life for many women. 48 per cent of British women aged 25 to 35 were on some kind of diet and 20 per cent of young women dieted all or most of time. Some of them said they would pop a pill to give them their beautiful shape, even if it meant risking    

their health. Worldwide, 70 million people have an eating disorder. Most are women, but men are increasingly affected, too.

More than half the women and two thirds of the men in Britain weigh too much. while in the United States more than one quarter of adults and about one in five children are overweight. The idea that female beauty is a very thin body could be changed, if clothing factories and magazines showed images(形象) of women of all shapes instead of selecting skeletal-like models and stick-thin actress.

But that is easier said than done.  

To get the message across, Orbach is also considering talking to pop stars such as Victoria Beckham and Geri Halliwell, both of whom have admitted__________________.

1.What’s the best title of the passage?

                                                                          

2.Which sentence in the passage is the closest in meaning to the following one?

Lots of women has chosen constant dieting as part of thir life despite the fact that constant dietting leads to the lost weight being regained.  

                                                                          

3.Please fill in the blank in the passage with proper words or phrases to complete the sentence.(within ten words)

                                                                          

4.Are you in favor of dieting ?And why?(within 30 words)

                                                                           

5.Translate the underlined sentence into Chinese.
