Unit 3 Inventors and inventions 导读：美容化妆品充斥市场，是到了全民总动员包装自己的时刻了吗？ Task: Is it necessary for young people to package themselves by making up？ Packaging a person A person, like a commodity, needs packaging. But going too far is absolutely undesirable. A little exaggeration(夸张), however, does no harm when it shows the person's unique qualities to their advantage. To display personal charm in a casual and natural way, it is important for one to have a clear knowledge of oneself. A master packager knows how to integrate(使结合)art and nature without any traces of embellishment(装饰), so that the person so packaged is no commodity but a human being, lively and lovely. A young person, especially a female, radiant(光芒四射的)with beauty and full of life, has all the favor granted by God. Any attempt to make up would be self－defeating. Packaging for the middle－aged is primarily to conceal the furrows ploughed by time. Elderly people are beautiful if their river of life has been, through plains, mountains and jungles, running its course as it should. There is no need to resort to hair－dyeing — the snow－capped mountain itself is a beautiful scene of fairyland. As long as one finds where one stands, one knows how to package oneself, just as a commodity establishes its brand by the right packaging. |
