26、 A video of a three-year-old girl being kicked by her own mother during a photo shot went viral on Thursday, indicating China’s underperformance in regulating the emerging child modeling industry.
The girl, known as Niu Niu, was physically abused (虐待) by her mother in several videos. The videos have annoyed Chinese media and Internet users alike. Many netizens and scholars call for local authorities to carry out further investigations into possible child abuse.
In response to the public outcry (强烈抗议), Niu Niu’s mother issued an apology via Sina Weibo on Thursday, condemning accusations of abuse. She noted that she was merely guiding her daughter for better shots and the girl is well looked after.
Despite her apology, many E-shops which used Niu Niu’s images for brand promotion have canceled their cooperation with the mother, while over 110 well-known child garment shops on Taobao have signed up for a campaign to provide better protection for child models.
“It is necessary to adopt comprehensive laws and regulations to further protect the kids, preventing their parents and companies from exploiting them,” Fang Zhiqing, a lawyer and child protection expert, said.
Niu Niu is not alone. In Zhili, a small town in Zhejiang province, thousands of children from across China are taken here by their parents to seize the chance of fame. With a population of 450,000, Zhili has over 13,000 manufacturers of child clothing. In 2017.the town earned over 7 billion yuan by selling clothing for children online, thus providing opportunities for child models.
“China’s current advertisement law isn’t workable with respect to the industry of child modeling, as it lacks clear regulatory measures and clear legal punishment.” Fang added, “It is important to issue new laws which regulate child modeling.”
【1】What caused the public outcry?
A.A girl being physically abused by her mother.

27、Sleep Tips: Steps to Better Sleep
Think about all the factors that can influence a good night’s sleep — from work stress and family responsibilities to unexpected challenges. 【1】 While you might not be able to control the factors that affect your sleep, you can adopt habits that encourage better sleep.
Stick to a sleep schedule.
The recommended amount of sleep for a healthy adult is at least seven hours. Most people don’t need more than eight hours in bed to achieve this goal. 【2】 Try to limit the difference in your sleep schedule on weeknights and weekends to no more than one hour. If you don’t fall asleep within about 20 minutes, leave your bedroom and do something relaxing. Go ahead to bed when you’re tired. Repeat as needed.
Pay attention to what you eat and drink.
Don’t go to bed hungry or full. In particular, avoid heavy or large meals within a couple of hours of bedtime. 【3】 Nicotine, coffee and alcohol deserve caution, too. The stimulating effects of nicotine and caffeine take hours to disappear. And even though alcohol might make you feel sleepy, it can interrupt sleep later in the night.
Create a restful environment.
Create a room that’s ideal for sleeping. Often, this means cool, dark and quiet. 【4】 Consider using room-darkening shades, earplugs, a fan or other devices to create an environment that suits your needs.
Limit daytime naps.
Long daytime naps can affect nighttime sleep. If you choose to nap, limit yourself to up to 30 minutes and avoid doing so late in the day. If you work nights, however, you might need to nap late in the day before work to help make up for sleep debt.
【5】
Regular physical activity can promote better sleep. Avoid being active too close to bedtime — it raises your body temperature so that your sleep is disturbed. However, spending time outside every day might be helpful, too.
A.Your discomfort might keep you up.
B.It’s no wonder that quality sleep is sometimes difficult to get.
C.Sleeping with light on might make it more challenging to fall sleep.
D.Go to bed and get up at the same time every day.
E.Know how to manage worries.
F.Include physical activity in your daily routine.
G.Read or listen to relaxing music.
