Whizzfizzing Festival
As one of the Home Counties to the north and west of London, Buchinghamshire is known for the rolling Chiltern Hills, its pretty villages, and the much-loved children’s author Roald Dahl.
The writer who penned Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, The Witches, Matilda and The Big Friendly Giant is the inspiration for the Whizzfizzing Festival, which will transform the market-town of Aylesbury into all kinds of music, color and fun on Saturday, 1 July.
Formerly known as The Roald Dahl Festival, this year’s event will involve a broad range of children’s films and bring to life some of their best-loved characters — from Alice in Wonderland and Gruffalo to The Big Friendly Giant and Harry Potter.
Things to See and Do
The festivals start at 11 a.m. with a colorful children’s parade. More than 650 local school children and teachers, many in fancy dress, will march through the town carrying giant carnival puppets(木偶), with thousands of audiences lining the street to watch.
The parade will be followed by a range of child-friendly activities and workshops held in venues across the town.
Don’t be late for the Mad Hatters Tea Party in the Bucks County Museum, catch a splendid screening of a Roald Dahl film in the Old Court House, watch leading children’s authors, including Julian Clary, and read in the Market Square.
CBeebies’ children’s chef Katy Ashworth will once again cook up a storm with her interactive Concoction Kitchen, located outside Hale Leys Shopping Centre. Little chefs will have lots of opportunities to get involved in
preparing, cooking — and best of all, tasting — Katy’s wonderful dishes.
With hands-on arts and crafts workshops, storytelling sessions, live music, a fancy dress competition, street theatre and more, there is something for everyone.

B
Have you ever looked at a fashionable item of clothing and felt confused? If so, your confusion may have made sense.
Several months ago, high fashion brand Balenciaga released a “T-shirt shirt”, which is a shirt sewn on the front of a T-shirt. The unusual design has certainly confused a lot of people.
But the “double shirt” isn’t fighting alone on the frontier of strange fashion. Ever since US shoe manufacturer Crocs released its famous hole-filled foam shoes, the so-called “ugly fashion” hasn’t showed any signs of slowing down, the Business of Fashion website noted.
British designer Paul Surridge believes that the rise of ugly fashion is a sign that people are bored with looking perfect all the time. “Fashion thrives (v. 蓬勃发展) on novelty”, he told the Financial Times.
Indeed, fashion is all about changes. Something that’s considered uncool one minute can then turn out to be the latest must-have fashion item the next.
And in the eyes of US fashion writer Megan Collins, ugly doesn’t necessarily mean the design of the item is ugly. After all, ugly is something subjective. “Ugly fashion means ‘not the mainstream’— it is not what everyone’s wearing; it is not what the general population considers as ‘in’ right now,” she told style news site Fashionista.
But throughout the history of fashion, when any new trend appears, most people tend to hate it, before it eventually becomes loved. As Italian designer Miuccia Prada told The New York Times, “Maybe because it is newer, ugly is attractive. Ugly is exciting.”
Meanwhile, popular social media fashion bloggers also help people to pick up new ugly fashion trends. These bloggers express themselves through their clothes, showing their unique personalities and making statements with their wardrobe choices. However, as Clever-ish Magazine noted, just being comfortable in your own skin could actually be “the best look”.
“I personally love having a unique expression because without ugly fashion and diversity, we’d all look the same,” Australian fashion influencer and model Zanita Whittington told Fashionista. “I appreciate anything that’s out of the norm(n. 规范).”
5. The underlined word “in” in the passage could be replaced by ____________. A. ugly B. fashionable C. affordable D. expensive
6. What will some social media fashion bloggers do to show their personalities? A. They will dress themselves to look perfect. B. They will try some new and exciting clothes.
C. They will make statements with others’ clothes choices. D. They will express themselves by wearing ugly clothes. 7. What can we infer from Zanita Whittington’s words? A. She is in favor of ugly fashion trends. B. She doesn’t care about fashion at all. C. She hopes to be the same as others. D. She wants to look ugly as a model. 【答案】5. B 6. D 7. A 【解析】
本文是一篇时尚类短文阅读。上个月，高级时尚品牌巴黎世家推出了一款“T恤衬衫”，将一件衬衫缝在了T恤的正面，此番不同寻常的设计无疑让不少人摸不到头脑。每年在各路大牌的时尚秀上，我们总会看到一些让人摸不着头脑的另类时尚单品，而这类“丑时尚”也成为了今年的一大潮流。 【5题详解】
