which

prides

itself

as

the

global

innovator

of

fashion,

has

decided

its

fashion

industry

has

lost

an

absolute

right

to

define

physical

beauty

for

women.

Its

lawmakers

gave

preliminary

approval

last

week

to

a

law

that

would

make

it

a

crime

to

employ

ultra-thin

models

on

runaways.

The

parliament

also

agreed

to

ban

websites

that

“incite

excessive

thinness”

by

promoting

extreme

dieting.

Such

measures

have

a

couple

of

uplifting

motives.

They

suggest

beauty

should

not

be

defined

by

looks

that

end

up

impinging

on

health.

That’s

a

start.

And

the

ban

on

ultra-thin

models

seems

to

go

beyond

protecting

models

from

starving

themselves

to

death-as

some

have

done.

It

tells

the

fashion

industry

that

it

must

take

responsibility

for

the

signal

it

sends

women,

especially

teenage

girls,

about

the

social

tape-measure

they

must

use

to

determine

their

individual

worth.The

bans,

if

fully

enforced,would

suggest

to

women

(and

many

men)

that

they

should

not

let

others

be

arbiters

of

their

beauty.

And

perhaps

faintly,they

hint

that

people

should

look

to

intangible

qualities

like

character

and

intellect

rather

than

dieting

their

way

to

size

zero

or

wasp-waist

physiques.

[D]The

Great

Threats

to

the

Fashion

IndustryText2

For

the

first

time

in

history

more

people

live

in

towns

than

in

the

country.

In

Britain

this

has

had

a

curious

result.

While

polls

show

Britons

rate

“the

countryside”

alongside

the

royal

family,

Shakespeare

and

the

National

Health

Service

(NHS)

as

what

makes

them

proudest

of

their

country,

this

has

limited

political

support.

A

century

ago

Octavia

Hill

launched

the

National

Trust

not

to

rescue

stylish

houses

but

to

save

“the

beauty

of

natural

places

for

everyone

forever.”

It

was

specifically

to

provide

city

dwellers

with

spaces

for

leisure

where

they

could

experience

“a

refreshing

air.”

Hill’s

pressures

later

led

to

the

creation

of

national

parks

and

green

belts.

They

don’t

make

countryside

any

more,

and

every

year

concrete

consumes

more

of

it.

It

needs

constant

guardianship.

At

the

next

election

none

of

the

big

parties

seem

likely

to

endorse

this

sentiment.

The

Conservatives’

planning

reform

explicitly

gives

rural

development

priority

over

conservation,

even

authorizing“off-plan”

building

where

local

people

might

object.

The

concept

of

sustainable

development

has

been

defined

as

profitable.

Labour

likewise

wants

to

discontinue

local

planning

where

councils

oppose

development.

The

Liberal

Democrats

are

silent.

Only

Ukip,

sensing

its

chance,

has

sided

with

those

pleading

for

a

more

considered

approach

to

using

green

land.

Its

Campaign

to

Protect

Rural

England

struck

terror

into

many

local

Conservative

parties.

The

sensible

place

to

build

new

houses,

factories

and

offices

is

where

people

are,

in

cities

and

towns

where

infrastructure

is

in

place.

The

London

agents

StirlingAckroyd

recently

identified

enough

sites

for

half

a

million

houses

in

the

London

area

alone,

with

no

intrusion

on

green

belt.

What

is

true

of

London

is

even

truer

of

the

provinces.

The

idea

that

“housing

crisis”

equals

“concreted

meadows”

is

pure

lobby

talk.

The

issue

is

not

the

need

for

more

houses

but,

as

always,

where

to

put

them.

Under

lobby

pressure,

George

Osborne

favours

rural

new-build

against

urban

renovation

and

renewal.

He

favours

out-of-town

shopping

sites

against

high

streets.

This

is

not

a

free

market

but

a

biased

one.

Rural

towns

and

villages

have

grown

and

will

always

grow.

They

do

so

best

where

building

sticks

to

their

edges

and

respects

their

character.

We

do

not

ruin

urban

conservation

areas.

Why

ruin

rural

ones?

Development

should

be

planned,

not

let

rip.

After

the

Netherlands,

Britain

is

Europe’s

most

crowded

country.

Half

a

century

of

town

and

country

planning

has

enabled

it

to

retain

an

enviable

rural

coherence,

while

still

permitting

low-density

urban

living.

There

is

no

doubt

of

the

alternative—the

corrupted

landscapes

of

southern

Portugal,

Spain

or

Ireland.

Avoiding

this

rather

than

promoting

it

should

unite

the

left

and

right

of

the

political

spectrum.

In

the

his

appreciation

of____

.[A]the

size

of

[B]the

political

life

in

today’s

[C]the

[D]the

town-and-country

planning

in

Britain.Text3“There

is

one

and

only

one

social

responsibility

of

business,”

wrote

Milton

Friedman,a

Nobel

prize-winning

economist

“That

is,

to

use

its

resources

and

engage

in

activities

designed

to

increase

its

profits.”

But

even

if

you

accept

Fiedman’s

premise

and

regard

corporate

social

responsibility

(CSR)

policies

as

a

waste

of

shareholders

money,things

may

not

be

absolutely

clear-cut.New

research

suggests

that

CSR

may

create

monetary

value

for

companies

–at

least

when

they

are

prosecuted

for

corruption.

The

largest

firms

is

America

and

Britain

together

spend

more

than

$15

billion

a

year

on

CSR

,

according

to

an

estimate

by

EPG,a

consulting

firm

,This

could

add

value

to

their

businesses

in

three

ways.First,

consumers

may

take

CSR

spending

as

a

“signal”

that

a

company’s

products

are

of

high

quality.Second,

customers

may

be

willing

to

buy

a

company’s

products

as

an

indirect

way

to

donate

to

the

good

causes

is

helps.

And

third,

through

a

more

diffuse

“halo

effect,”

whereby

its

good

deeds

earn

it

greater

consideration

from

consumers

and

others.

Previous

studies

on

CSR

have

had

trouble

differentiating

these

effects

because

consumers

can

be

affected

by

all

three.

A

recent

study

attempts

to

separate

them

by

looking

at

bribery

prosecutions

under

America’s

Foreign

Corrupt

Practices

Act

(FCPA).

It

argues

that

since

prosecutors

do

not

consume

a

company's

products

as

part

of

their

investigations,

they

could

be

influenced

only

by

the

halo

effect.

The

study

found

that,

among

prosecuted

firms,

those

with

the

most

comprehensiveCSR

programmes

tendedto

getmore

lenient

penalties.

Their

analysis

ruled

out

the

possibility

that

it

was

firms'

political

influence,

rather

than

their

CSR

stand,that

accounted

for

the

leniency:

Companies

that

contributed

more

to

political

campaigns

did

not

receive

lower

fines.In

all,

the

study

concludes

that

whereas

prosecutors

should

only

evaluate

a

case

based

on

its

merits,

they

do

seen

to

influenced

by

a

company’s

record

in

CSR.

"We

estimate

that

either

eliminating

a

substantial

concern,

as

labour,

or

increasing

about

20%

results

in

fines

that

generally

are

40%

lower

than

the

typical

punishment

bribing

foreign

officials,"

says

one

researcher.

Researchers

admit

that

their

study

does

not

answer

the

question

of

how

much

businesses

ought

to

spend

on

CSR.

Nor

does

it

reveal

how

much

companies

are

banking

on

the

rather

than

day

when

The

New

Times

cases

to

publish

stories

on

newsprint

.Exactly

when

that

day

will

be

is

a

matter

of

debate.

“Sometime

in

“the

paper’s

publisher

said

back

in

2010.

Nostalgia

Readers

from

although

still

declining.

Overhead

may

be

high

and

lowe

,but

rushing

to

eliminate

its

editor

would

be

a

mistake

,says

BuzzFeed

CEO

Jonah

Peretti.

Peretti

says

the

Times

shouldn't

waste

time

getting

of

the

print

business,

only

if

they

go

about

doing

it

the

right

away

“Figuring

out

a

way

to

accelerate

that

transition

would

make

sense

for

them

“he

said,

“but

if

you

discontinue

it,

you're

going

to

have

your

most

loyal

customers

really

upset

with

you."

Sometimes

that's

worth

making

a

change

anyway".

Peretti

gives

example

of

Netflix

discontinuing

its

DVD-mailing

service

to

focus

on

streaming.

"It

was

seen

as

a

blunder."

he

said.

The

move

turned

out

to

be

foresighted.

And

if

Peretti

were

in

charge

at

the

times?

"l

wouldn't

pick

to

end

said.

“I

would

raise

and

make

it

into

more

of

a

legacy

product.”The

most

loyal

costumer

would

still

gel

the

product

they

favor.

the

idea

goes,

and

they’d

feel

like

they

were

helping

sustain

the

quality

of

something

they

believe

in.

"So

if

you're

overpaying

for

print,

you

could

feel

like

you

were

helping,"

peretti

said.

"Then

increase

it

at

rate

each

year

and

essentially

try

to

generate

additional

revenue."

In

other

words,

if

you're

going

to

print

product,

make

it

for

the

people

who

are

already

obsessed

with

it.

Which

may

be

what

the

is

doing

already.

people

and

likeability

in

just

a

tenth

of

a

second,

solelybased

ontheway

you

look.

The

different

between

today’sworkplace

and

the

“dress

success”era

is

that

the

range

of

optionsis

so

muchbroader.

Normshaveevolvedandfragmented.In

some

settings,

red

or

T—shirts

not

Plus,

whatever

image

we

present

is

magnified

by

social—media

services

like

LinkedIn.Chances

are,

your

headshots

are

seen

much

more

often

now

than

adecade

or

it

seems,

face

the

paradox

of

being

the

least

formal

generation

yet

the

most

conscious

of

style

and

personal

branding.It

can

beconfusing.

So

how

do

we

navigate

this?How

do

we

know

when

to

invest

in

anupgrade?And

what’s

the

best

way

to

pull

off

one

that

enhances

our

goals？Here

are

some

tips:

41.As

an

executive

coach,

I’ve

seen

image

upgrades

be

particularlyhelpfulduring

transitions—when

looking

for

a

new

job

,

stepping

into

a

new

or

morepublic

role

,or

changing

work

environments.

If

you’re

in

a

period

of

change

or

just

feeling

stuck

and

in

a

rut,

now

may

be

a

good

time.

If

you’re

not

sure,

ask

forhonest

feedback

from

trusted

friends,

colleagues

and

professionals

.Look

for

cues

about

how

others

perceive

you.

Maybe

there’s

no

need

for

an

upgrade

and

that’s

OK.

42.Get

clear

on

what

impact

you’re

hoping

to

have.

Are

you

looking

to

refresh

your

image

or

pivot

it?

For

one

person,

the

goal

may

be

to

be

taken

more

seriously

and

enhance

their

professional

image.

For

another,

it

may

be

to

be

perceived

as

moreapproachable,

or

more

modern

and

stylish.

For

someone

moving

from

finance

to

advertising,

maybe

they

want

to

look

ore

“SoHo.”

(It’s

OK

to

use

characterizations

like

that.)

43.Look

at

your

work

environment

like

an

anthropologist.

What

are

the

norms

of

your

environment?

What

conveys

status?

Who

are

your

most

important

audience?

How

do

the

people

you

respect

and

look

up

to

prevent

themselves?

The

better

you

understand

the

cultural

context,

the

more

control

you

can

have

over

your

impact.44.Enlist

the

support

of

professionals

and

share

with

them

your

goals

and

context.

Hire

a

personal

stylist,

or

use

the

free

styling

service

of

a

store

like

Crew.

Try

a

hair

stylist

instead

of

a

barber.

Work

with

a

professional

photographer

instead

of

your

spouse

of

friend.

It’s

not

as

expensive

as

you

might

think.

45.The

point

of

a

style

upgrade

isn’t

to

become

more

vain

or

to

spend

more

time

discussing

over

what

to

wear.

Instead,

use

it

as

an

opportunity

to

reduce

decision

fatigue.

Pick

a

standard

work

uniform

or

a

few

go-to

opinions.

Buy

all

your

clothes

once

with

a

stylist

instead

of

shopping

alone,

one

article

of

clothing

a

time.

pionts)

Mental

health

is

our

birthright.

(46)

We

don’t

have

to

learn

how

to

be

mentally

healthy;

it

is

built

into

us

in

the

same

way

that

our

bodies

know

how

to

heal

a

cut

or

mend

a

broken

bone.

Mental

health

can't

be

learned,

only

reawakened.

It

is

like

the

immune

system

of

the

body,

which

under

stress

or

through

lack

of

nutrition

or

exercise

can

be

weakened,

but

which

never

leaves

us.

When

we

don't

understand

the

value

of

mental

health

and

we

don't

know

how

to

gain

access

to

it,

mental

health

will

remain

hidden

from

us.

(47)

Our

mental

health

doesn’t

really

go

anywhere;

like

the

sun

behind

a

cloud.

it

can

be

temporarily

hidden

from

view,

but

it

is

fully

capable

of

being

restored

in

an

instant.

Mental

health

is

the

seed

that

contains

self-esteem

—

confidence

in

ourselves

and

an

ability

to

trust

in

our

common

sense.

It

allows

us

to

have

perspective

on

our

lives

—

the

ability

to

not

take

ourselves

too

seriously,

to

laugh

at

ourselves,

to

see

the

bigger

picture,

and

to

see

that

things

will

work

out.

It's

a

form

of

innate

or

unlearned

optimism.

(48)

Mental

health

allows

us

to

view

others

with

sympathy

if

they

are

having

troubles

with

kindness

if

they

are

in

pain

and

with

unconditional

love

no

matter

who

they

are.

Mental

health

is

the

source

of

creativity

for

solving

problems,

resolving

conflict,

making

our

surroundings

more

beautiful,

managing

our

home

life,

or

coming

up

with

a

creative

business

idea

or

invention

to

make

our

lives

easier.

It

gives

us

patience

for

ourselves

and

toward

others

as

well

as

patience

while

driving,

catching

a

fish,

working

on

our

car.

or

raising

a

child.

It

allows

us

to

see

the

beauty

that

surrounds

us

each

moment

in

nature,

in

culture,

in

the

flow

of

our

daily

lives.

(49)Although

mental

health

is

the

cure-all

for

living

our

lives,

it

is

perfectly

ordinary

as

you

will

see

that

it

has

been

there

to

direct

you

through

all

your

difficult

decisions.

It

has

been

available

even

in

the

most

mundane

of

life

situations

to

show

you

right

from

wrong,

good

from

bad,

friend

from

foe.

Mental

health

has

commonly

been

called

conscience,

instinct,

wisdom,

common

sense,

or

the

inner

voice.

We

think

of

it

simply

as

a

healthy

and

helpful

flow

of

intelligent

thought.

(50)

As

you

will

come

to

see,

knowing

that

mental

health

is

always

available

and

knowing

to

trust

it

allow

us

to

slow

down

to

the

moment

and

live

life

happily.
