A department store advertisement shows happy，colourful children jumping around in winter clothes.Among them is a girl with dark curly hair，with an African
background.Finland's multiculturalism (跨文化主义) is beginning to show in marketing and advertising.“Advertisers want to sell their products to all families，”says Fashion Models Agency's owner Merja Kupiainen-Groundstroem.
Yet regardless of that，says Kupiainen-Groundstroem，the interest in using ethnic (种族的) models is increasing slowly.There is already a high demand for young adult and child models，but there are only a few ethnic female adult models in Finland.One of them is 25-year-old Mona Musse，educated as a translator.She arrived in Finland when she was at the kindergarten age.In the autumn Musse created her own multicultural model agency，Choco Promotion.Chocolate refers to her own East African skin colour.
In the modelling world physical characteristics are described bluntly.Black is black; milk coffee is milk coffee.Musse established the modelling agency because she wants to offer dark-skinned models the possibility to find work in Finland.“It's also rewarding to be a pioneer.”
Although there has been plenty of work，Musse wishes that large Finnish companies would offer more work to Finnish models，instead of commissioning (委任) photo shoots abroad，or hiring Estonian models.Can it be the case，that it is easier for the industry to accept a child model as a Finn than an adult model，if the model doesn't look like a typical Finn?
“That might be a reason，” says media researcher Annamari V?nsk?.Although it's possible to see change，she says the advertising world is still white.“You can find black models in more artistic magazines.Yet in commercial advertising，dark-skinned models are lighter and have more Western features than in fashion stories，”V?nsk? explains.
Laila Snellman，director of a Finnish modelling agency，says that in the 1980s，“Finland had everything，including black models in advertising.” Since the 1990s recession，the modelling market has had a “long lasting white season.” Snellman says she misses seeing the “patchwork(拼和)of colours” in Finland.But will multiculturalism also change the Finnish beauty ideal？Kupiainen-Groundstroem believes that a slow change is taking place.
【答案速查】 1－4 CABC
【语篇解读】 来自东非的年轻女孩Mona Musse创立了芬兰第一家跨文化模特经纪公司，意在为黑人模特提供更多的工作机会，她也希望能通过自己的力量，改变模特世界白人一统天下的局面。
1．It can be inferred that in Finland there are________. A．enough adult models B．many East African models C．few East African models D．enough child models
【解析】 推理判断题。第二段谈到，广告商对有色人种模特的兴趣增加很慢。年轻人和儿童模特的需求已经很大，而芬兰有色人种的成年女性模特却为数不多。Mona Musse就是为数不多的有色人种的成年女性模特中的一个，她本身是东非人。由此可推知，在芬兰东非模特并不多见。
【答案】 C
2．Which has the closest meaning to the underlined word “bluntly”？ A．Directly. C．Exactly.
B．Frequently. D．In detail.
【解析】 词义猜测题。根据画线词下文“Black is black；milk coffee is milk coffee.”可知，在模特的世界里，黑色就是黑色，咖啡色就是咖啡色。由此可知，体貌特征向来清晰可见，即以非常直接的方式描述体貌特征。
【答案】 A
3．Who are more popular in the advertising world in Annamari V?nsk?'s view? A．Black models. B．White models. C．Mixed-blood models. D．Yellow models.
【解析】 细节理解题。根据第五段“she says the advertising world is still white.‘You can find black models in more artistic magazines.Yet in commercial advertising，dark-skinned models are lighter and have more Western features than in fashion stories’”可知，媒体研究员安娜玛丽·万斯卡说：广告世界仍然是白人的天下。在更倾向艺术类的杂志上你可以找到黑人模特。而商业广告里，黑人模特肤色往往浅得多，而且比时尚故事里的模特拥有更多西方特征。”由此可知在广告界，白人模特更受欢迎。
【答案】 B
4．What can be known from the passage?
A．The business of Musse's company is not good.
