志玲的媽媽看BMI！‏

某服裝秀主辦單位想要遏止模特兒一味追求過瘦的不健康概念，用「身體質量指標(BMI)」做為標準，凡是未達規定的模特兒都被禁止上伸展台。消息一出，時尚界大嘩。志玲是一個一心嚮往當模特兒的少女，常常為了節食而營養不良。她媽媽一聽到BMI指標禁令時，舉雙手表示贊成。 她寫了封email給服裝秀主辦單位。
服裝秀→ fashion show
身體質量指標→ Body Mass Index (BMI)
身體健康→ health
1.就健康而言，我同意服裝秀主辦單位用"BMI"來評量模特兒的身高體重。
這句英文要怎麼掰？
→As far as health is concerned, I agree that fashion show uses Body Mass Index(BMI) to measure models' height and weight.
[解析]：「就...而言」可以用"as far as...is concerned, "的句型。
時尚界→ fashion industry
形象→ image
模仿→ imitate
2.我認為時尚界有責任去呈現健康的身體形象，以避免青少年以錯誤的方式模仿。
這句英文要怎麼掰？
→I think fashion industry has a responsibility to represent healthy body images to prevent teenagers from imitating in wrong ways.
[解析]：
「避免」可用：
"prevent...from..."
"stop...from..."
"prohibit...from..."
"forbid...to..."
"ban...from..."
禁令→ ban
過瘦的模特兒→ overly thin models
厭食症→ anorexia
3.也許這項禁令會排除阻擋了一些過瘦模特兒，但是它可以保護其他的女人免於飲食失調症，像是厭食症。
這句英文要怎麼掰？
→Maybe this ban would turn away some overly thin models, but it would protect the other females from eating disorders like anorexia.
[解析]： "ban"在此是名詞，而且是本句的「主詞」。
