22、nes.So far, only three states have laws to protect clothesline. Right-to-Dry supporters argue that there should be move.Matt Reck, 37, is the kind of eco-conscious(有生態(tài)意識的) person who feeds his trees with bathwater and reuses water drops from his air conditioners to water plants.

25、ying reminds people of poor neighborhoods.

37、d I couldnt help noticing that the other tourists werent like us. They had heavy backpacks, water bottles, and hats.

38、my back and the boys far behind.

39、tedly as the plane took off and circled around the Canyon. But the smiles on our faces disappeared as the pilot tossed(翻轉(zhuǎn))the plane around, pretending he was going to hit the ground.

DCelebrity（名人）has become one of the mos

44、t important representatives of popular culture. Fans used to be crazy about a specific film, but now the public tends to base its consumption（消費）on the interest of celebrity attached to any given product. Besides, fashion magazines have almost abandoned the practice of putting models on the cover be

45、cause they dont sell nearly as well as famous faces.

48、onsumers with its own qualities it begins to resemble an exercise in self-promotional marketing. And once the initial（最初的）attention dies down, consumer interest might fade, loyalty（忠城）returning to tried-and-true labels.Today, celebrities face even more severe embarrassment. The pop-cultural circle m

49、ight be bigger than ever, but its rate of turnover has speeded up as well. Each misstep threatens to reduce a celebritys shelf life, and the same newspaper or magazine that once brought him fame has no problem picking him to pieces when the opportunity appears. Still, the egos（自我的）potential for expa

50、nsion is limitless. Having already achieved great wealth and public recognition, many celebrities see fashion as the next frontier to be conquered. As the saying goes, success and failure always go hand in hand. Their success as designers might last only a short time, but fashionlike celebrityhas al

51、ways been temporary.68Fashion magazines today Aseldom put models on the coverBno longer put models on the coverCneed not worry about celebrities marker potentialDjudge the marker potential of every celebrity correctly 69A change in the consumer marker can be found today that Aprice rather than brand
