[1]I remember a time I went shopping on my first visit to Macau．Coming from
cold and cloudy England. I was prepared for the sun and dressed in a T-shirt and a short
skirt．Not having much chance to enjoy the sun in the UK and having naturally fair
skin，my legs are very white．In the UK this is not a fashionable(时尚的)look at all．
Most women spend every sunny day out in the sun trying to get darker skin．The darker
.
[2] As 1 walked around one shop，the two shop assistants didn’t take their eyes off
me the whole time，talking quietly in Chinese．I began to feel uncomfortable and asked
my friend if we could leave．After we left the shop，she asked me what was wrong．I
told her 1 was embarrassed that they were talking about my white skin．My friend
laughed．“They weren’t laughing at you．They were saying how nice your legs are．
Many Chinese women want to have white skin like yours．In fact，there are many beauty products in the shops to make skin whiter and a lot of money is spent on them．”
[3]It just goes to show that we always think what others have is better．The grass
is always greener on the other side．If the women of the West and East thought the
same way，Western women wouldn’t spend so much money on cream that makes skin
darker and women from the East wouldn’t need to use cream that makes skin whiter．

Young visitors to museums often complain(抱怨)about having museum feet，the

makes one feel like saying：“This is boring．I could have done the painting myself．
When can we sit down? What time is it?
