There is a popular Chinese saying that "Fair skin（皮肤） will make up for three flaws（缺陷）"． This mentions the fact that in Chinese culture， it is believed that people who have fair skin are more beautiful． In Western culture， however， the opposite is true ﹣ many Westerners think tanned skin is prettier． The example shows that different cultures have different ideas of what they think is beautiful． These cultural meanings of the beauty， however， are no longer important． As more and more people travel overseas， ideas about beauty are being shared among cultures． The Internet has also made it easier for people to share different types of beauty since people are always posting pictures on social media． The result is an ever﹣changing idea of what is considered beautiful．
The cultural practice of ear piercings， for example， has become a part of modern day culture．
In Kenya， it is a tradition among Masai men and women to pierce and then make their ear
lobes（耳垂） longer using ivory and wood or stones． They then wear colorful things on their ear lobes． This is a common practice since longer ear lobes are seen as a sigh of beauty． This tradition has now found its way into present﹣day culture． Nowadays， this might still seem unusual to some， but with more and more well﹣known actors and film stars showing off their longer ear lobes， it will finally become more fashionable．
It is understood that different cultures around the world have different ways of showing beauty． However， since we now live in a worldwide society， people's views about beauty are always changing． With the help of the Internet， people are now able to easily borrow ideas from other cultures to help them stand out． So what new fashions can we expect to see in the future？

Bananas are the perfect snack． Not only are they sweet and delicious， but they are easy to carry around， so you can take them anywhere． Best of all， bananas provide different things that the human body needs!
Bananas grow best in warm places that get lots of rain． They grow on plants that look like trees． The banana plant， however， is considered a herb rather than a tree because it doesn't have a strong ， woody stem（干，茎）． The plants can grow as high as 30feet． When they reach their full height， flowers grow out from the stem． These flowers produce bananas．
Two or three times each year， the plants produce fruit． The bananas grow together， which seem like "hands"． A hand is made up of 10to 20bananas． Growers sometimes call bananas "fingers"． Each bunch（丛） of bananas has about 15hands， and so a whole bunch may have as many as 200bananas and can weigh more than 100pounds．
After about three months， the bananas are ready to be picked． At this point， they still aren't the sunny yellow color of bananas． Farmers pick them when they're green． That's how they're shipped to stores． They turn yellow along the way and are ready to be sold．
If you love bananas， you've got a lot of company． Americans have been enjoying bananas since the first shipment arrived in the United States in 1876． Today， American eat more bananas than any other fruit． More bananas are sold than apples and grapes together． Every American eats over 26pounds of bananas each year!
