4．（10分）Li Meixi，12，feels anxious about her look ﹣ not her face，she tries to stay away from them，because she feels so shameful that she doesn't even want to walk on the same street with them.What Li is experiencing is fashion anxiety.It troubles many people today.They are anxious about their dressing
A big reason for fashion anxiety is fashion bullying.As fashion magazines and advertisements show the "latest and greatest" trends，there's a lot of pressure on people，especially on teenagers，no matter how much it will cost. "The need to belong in groups is very important to young learners and exclusion is something they see as the end of the world，" said Andy Cranham
Another reason is that young people may not have a sense of self﹣identity.It seems that they feel anxious about their dressing，but actually they themselves are not confident enough.They care about how fashionable people look at them.They easily doubt themselves.The truth is that those people usually don't notice them at all.
Fashion trends come and go，always changing.Instead of following，the key is to find your own style.If you're able to wear clothes with confidence，dressing is only a part of your appearance.It can't tell the true you.What really matters is your personality and abilities.
（1）Li Meixi is anxious about 　 　.
A．her face
B．her dressing
C．her height
D．her weight
（2）People are experiencing much pressure from 　 　 according to the passage.
A．their parents
B．their teachers
C．movies and TV shows
D．fashion magazines and advertisements
（3）According to Andy Cranham，young people want to 　 　.
A．do things they like
B．learn by themselves
C．get into groups
D．see the world better
（4）The underlined word "self﹣identity" in Paragraph 3 means 　 　.
A．self﹣control
B．self﹣confidence
C．self﹣improvement
D．self﹣learning

A．To introduce the most popular clothes at present.
B．To help people follow the latest and greatest trends.
C．To advise people to find their own style and be confident.
