Fiji, a beautiful island nation in the South Pacific, had no electricity in 1985. However, the television that came with electricity has brought unexpected changes to this island nation! In the past, young boys and girls in the country were pursuing beauty and muscular development. Today, a small TV screen lets them see the outside world, knowing Western ideals of beauty. Since then, the girls have begun to diet (diet weight loss). It is expected that girls will lose weight, and they will lose bulimia and anorexia. The appearance of television is a blessing or a blessing. The author meaningfully “relived” the history of the 19th century: When the British came to Fiji and brings in the measles (Measles) with them. Then, the author wrote: in the 20th century, Television is another pathogen(exporter)Western Images and values.】
