For Western designers, China and its rich culture have long been an inspiration for Western creative.
“It's no secret that China has always been a source(来源)of inspiration for designers,”says Amanda Hill, chief creative officer at A+E Networks, a global media company and home to some of the biggest fashion(时尚) shows.
Earlier this year, the China Through A Looking Glass exhibition in New York exhibited 140 pieces of China
inspired fashionable clothing alongside Chinese works of art, with the aim of exploring the
influence of Chinese aesthetics (美学) on Westen fashion and how China has fueled the fashionable imagination for centuries. The exhibition had record attendance, showing that there is huge interest in Chinese influences.
“China is impossible to overlook,”says Hill. “Chinese models are the faces of beauty and fashion campaigns that sell dreams to women all over the world, which means Chinese women are not just consumers of fashion
they are central to its movement.”Of course, not Only are today's top
some of the best designers of contemporary
Westem designers being influenced by China
fashion are themselves Chinese. “Vera Wang, Alexander Wang,Jason Wu are taking on Galliano, Albaz, Marc Jacobs
and beating them hands down in design and sales,”adds Hill.For Hill,it is
impossible not to talk about China as the leading player when discussing fashion.“The most famous designers are Chinese,so are the models,and so are the consumers,”she asys.“China is no longer just another marker;in many senses it has become the market.If you talk about fashion today,you are talking about China
its influences,its direction,its breathtaking clothes,and how
young designers and models are finally acknowledging that in many ways.” 4.What can we learn about the exhibition in New York?

6.What do the underlined words“taking on”in paragraph 4 mean? A.learning from B.looking down onC.working withD.competing against 7.What can be a suitable title for the text? A.Young Models Selling Dreams to the World B.A Chinese Art Exhibition Held in New York

Before the 1830s,most newspapers were sold through annual subscriptions in America,usually $8 to $10 a year.Today $8 or $10 seems a small amount of money,but at that time these amounts were forbidding to most citizens.Accordingly,newspapers were read almost only be rich people in politics or the trades.In addition,most newspapers had little in them that would appeal to a mass audience.They were dull and visually forbidding.But the revolution that was taking place in the 1830s would change all that.
The trend,then,was toward the“penny paper
a term referring to papers made widely available
to the public.It meant any inexpensive newspaper;perhaps more importantly it meant newspapers that could be bought in single copies on the street.
This delopment did not take place ovemight. It had been possible (but not easy) to buy single copies of newspapers before 1830, but this usually meant the reader had to go down to the printet's ofice to purchase a copy. Street sales were almost unknown. However, within a few years, street sales of newperas would be comnolacec in eastern cities. At first the price of single copies was seldom a penny
usually two or tnree cents was charged
and some of the older well
known papers charged five or six cents. But the phrase “penny paper” caught the publi's fancy,
