Answer to Question 1

Answer: C

Answer to Question 2

Answer: The media sets standards for what we find attractive. It can mislead people into thinking that the images portrayed are the ideal, when actually they are unrealistic. Photo and design technology can be used to manipulate images to change the appearance of models or celebrities, often to make them look thinner or to erase imperfections. Those who do not fit these media-generated images often get the message that they are inadequate or inferior.
