    　　Vans, Keds, Dollies－they sound like the names of rock bands, but if you have teenagers, you’ll know they’re actually the latest in teenage footwear．

    　　But experts are now warning that the current shoe fashions will be causing teenagers discomfort in the short term and storing up years of foot, knee and back pain in the future．

    　　Here, the experts identify the problems caused by teenagers’ shoe choice．

    　　KEDS/VANS

    　　Slip-on shoes with elastic(弹性的)sides are particularly popular among teenage boys-with Keds and Vans the most sought-after brands．

    　　The main problem is that they are just too flat－so flat that the heel, which strikes the ground first, also becomes damaged and painful．

    　　BALLET PUMPS

    　　The worst shoes of all are such light and thin dolly shoes．The problem is partly their flatness, as with Keds and Vans．However ballet pumps, which have no string or heel, have other specific problems．

    　　“As the shoe has no fastening device, it relies on the toes to keep the shoe on, causing an awkward gait(步法), ，this leads to short-and long-term problems such as calluses(茧子)，heel and knee pain．”

    　　WEDGES AND STILETTOS

    　　These shoes can also cause problems with gait, They may look good, but the heels on these are so high they can force the wearer’s body weight forward, making them very unstable．

    　　Teens who wear these shoes regularly are also in danger of joining those millions of women with constant back pain．

    　　SCHOOL SHOES

    　　So what do podiatrists(足科医生)have on their with list, especially for everyday wear?

    　　Something in a natural, breathable fabric, with a string to hold it on,with a small heel and a deep toe-box that does not press the toes, such as Clark’s, Marks & Spencer or Rhino．

    　　If your teen insists on wearing ‘bad’shoes, get them some simple foot orthotics(矫形器)in the shoes．These support and correct the movement of the foot and, properly fitted by a podiatrist, can often transform their walk and halt the damage．

    (1)

    Of all the shoes mentioned in the passage, which can cause the worst problems?

    [　　]

    A．

    Marks & Spencer．

    B．

    Wedges & Stilettos．

    C．

    Keds and Vans．

    D．

    Ballet Pumps．

    (2)

    Which pair of shoes may not be found on the podiatrists’ wish list?

    [　　]

    B．

    C．

    　　Heading off to college this year? Here are some fashion tips from our experts you should keep in mind：

    　　Dress to impress：Stylist and business consultant Daniela Smith says, “Girls should keep in mind that your college professors will often be the bridge that connects you to your future career and your classmates will become your professional network．You don't need to dress like you're going to the office, but you should display an ability to properly present yourself with appropriate maturity and confidence, and look put together．”

    　　Logo mania(品牌狂热症)：Wearing the logos of brands aimed at younger customers physically identifies you as part of that age group, so consider the targeted age group of the stores you shop at．It's tempting(诱人的)to load up on logos, especially well-known logos that signify high-end brands．But consider this：college is a time of self-discovery, a chance to develop your own personal style．Instead of wearing logos head to toe, “walking advertisement”-style, why not express who you really are?

    　　Wear real pants! The combination of leggings and baggy shirts is all too common on college campuses．Smith points out that leggings, yoga pants, and sweatpants are entirely unacceptable in public unless you're exercising．Although leggings worn as pants are a common trend among high school and college girls, they are not an appropriate choice for daywear．As a young woman, your style choice should begin to reflect your maturity level．So, get rid of leggings and wear real pants!

    　　Keep the cute factor to a minimum：Stay away from sweaters and T-shirts with smiling animals, cartoon characters, or Hello Kitty on them．Sure, kittens might be cute, but they're not doing you any favors in the style department．Dressing too cutesy can take years off your look, and not necessarily in a good way!

    (1)
