任務(wù)型閱讀

　　It seems that today more and more girls like to dress like boys. Maybe they are following the example of Li Yuchun, the winner of the Super Girls contest in 2005.

　　Kitty Deng is a 13-year-old from Shanxi. She has a boyish style. “I am like a boy and I am comfortable being this way,” says Kitty. “I think everybody should have a style according to his or her personality.”

　　Liu Bing, from Liaoning, is also a tomboy (假小子). “I don’t wear skirts because I don’t look pretty in skirts,” says the 13-year-old kid. “I get my hair cut short because long hair makes me feel very hot in summer,” she says. In fact, Liu has another reason. The style makes it easier to play together with boys. Why not play with girls? “Because some girls are just mean (小氣的), ” she answers.

　　Wei Yan, 14, lives in Shanghai. She dresses like a boy, too. In her class, not many girls dress like boys. But many girls think that being a boy is easier. “Boys have more chances than we do,” says Wei Yan. “For example, at our school only boys can be flag escorts (護旗手). Why can’t girls have a try?”
