Track 4 Reading 2B The Body's Canvas If you could take off your skin and lay it flat,

it would cover an area of about 1.9 square meters.

Skin is by far the body's largest organ.

Covering almost the entire body, skin protects us from a variety of external forces.

For example, it protects us from extremes of temperature, damaging sunlight, harmful chemicals, and dangerous infections.

Skin is also packed with nerves, which keeps the brain in touch with the outside world.

The health of our skin and its ability to perform its protective functions are crucial to our well-being.

However, the appearance of our skin is equally, if not more important to many people on this planet.

Take skin color, for example.

Your genes determine your skin's color.

But for centuries, humans have tried to lighten or darken their skin in an attempt to be more attractive.

In the 1800s, white skin was desirable for many Europeans.

Skin this color meant that its owner was a member of the upper class

and did not have to work in the sun.

Among darker-skinned people in some parts of the world, products used to lighten skin are still popular today.

During the 20th century, attitudes toward light skin shifted in the opposite direction in other cultures,

as cities grew and work moved indoors.

Tan skin began to indicate leisure time and health.

In many places today, tanning on the beach or in a salon remains popular, even though people are more aware of the dangers of UV rays.

Identity and Status.

Just as people have altered their skin's color to denote wealth and beauty,

so too have culture around the globe marked their skin to indicate cultural identity

or community status tattooing for example has been carried out for

thousands of years leaders in places including ancient egypt britain and peru wore tattoos to mark their status or their bravery

today among the maori people of new zealand as well as in cultures in samoa tahiti and borneo

full facial tattoos are still used to identify the wearer as

a member of a certain family these tattoos can also symbolize

the person's achievements in life in japan tattooing has been practiced for thousands of years

but was outlawed in the 19th century although there are no

laws against it today tattoos are still strongly associated with criminals particularly the yakuza or the Japanese Mafia,

who are known for their full-body tattoos.

The complex design of a Yakuza member's tattoo usually includes symbols of character traits that the wearer wants to have.

The process of getting a full-body tattoo is both slow and painful, and can take two years or more to complete.

In some cultures, scarring, a marking caused by cutting

or burning the skin is practiced usually among people who have darker skin on

which a tattoo would be difficult to see for many men

in west africa for instance scarring is a rite of passage an act

that symbolizes that a male has matured from a child into an adult

in australia among some native peoples cuts are made on the skin of both men and women

when they reach age 16 or 17.

Without these, they were traditionally not permitted to trade, sing ceremonial songs, or participate in other activities.

Not all skin markings are permanent, though.

In countries such as Morocco and India,

women decorate their skin with colorful henna designs for celebrations such as weddings and important religious holidays.

The henna coloring, which comes from a plant, fades and disappears over time.

In recent years, in many industrialized nations, tattooing, henna body art, and to a lesser degree,

scarring, have been gaining in popularity.

What makes these practices appealing to those living in modern cities?

According to photographer Chris Rainier, whose book Ancient Marx examines body markings around the globe,

people are looking for a connection with the traditional world.

There is a whole sector of modern society, people in search of identity, people in search of meaning," says Rainier.

Hence, there has been a huge explosion of tattooing and body marking.

Rainier reasons that it's mankind wanting identity, wanting a sense of place, and a sense of culture within their community.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
