（4）B Dear Jack,I started

out this day in quite a bad mood.My friend Rosalind stopped over and asked me if I was giving hugs today.I just grumbled （抱怨）something but then I began to think about it.After you gave us the task sheet on How to Keep Positive,I read it several times.Every time I got to the part about giving and getting hugs,I would back out, because I couldn't imagine giving hugs to strangers at work.

I thought for a moment and decided to make today "hugs day".What did I have to lose anyway?So I started giving hugs to the customers who came to the store.It was great to see how people just brightened up.An MBA student jumped up on top of the counter （柜台）and did a dance.Some people actually came back and asked for more。These two repair guys,who were just walking along not really talking to each other,were so surprised. They just woke up and suddenly were talking and laughing down the hall.

It feels like I hugged everybody in the Wharton Business School.And as a result,whatever was wrong with me this morning is all gone.I'm sorry that this letter is so long but I'm just really excited.The coolest thing was,at one point there were about 10people

pretty much limited to taking the role of Mommy—Barbie has always suggested that a woman has choices," she said.

However,in the early years,Barbie always appeared in a swimsuit or a housewife's clothes. It didn't give the image of a girl with many "choices".

During the following years,the company made some changes.In1980,it introduced the first black and Hispanic Barbies.In2004,the company made Barbie separate（分开）from her long-time "boyfriend" Ken, as they needed to spend some time by themselves.

And on March8,this year's Women's Day,the company produced a new line of "Inspiring Women".There were dolls of famous women throughout history,including great US pilot Amelia Earhart and UK boxer （拳击手） Nicola Adams.

Although the company had great ideas,the line has its problems.The Nicola Adams doll,for example,unlike the athlete herself,has no muscle（肌肉）at all.Instead,it has a slim body,just like other Barbies.And this exactly shows people's attitude toward women.

Yes,Barbie isn't perfect.But she's spent her life trying to break the norm（固有规范）.It may be the one thing that most girls care about and one reason that makes Barbie always popular famous characters in US culture, Barbie, recently turned 59.

In the past50years,a lot of toys have come and gone,but Barbie has always had a home on toy stores'shelves.This is probably because she shows how people's ideas towards women change, as The New York Times put it.

Ruth Handler,co-founder（共同创立者）of the US toy company Mattel,created the doll Barbie in1959.When she first introduced her,she hoped the doll could bring something new to the public."Unlike playing with a baby doll—in which a little girl is pretty much limited to taking the role of Mommy—Barbie has always suggested that a woman has choices," she said.
