Questions 1 - 20 Are Based On The Following Passage.: Section A: Cloze Passages (40 MARKS)

This passage discusses anorexia nervosa, a condition where a person eats very little because they have a distorted view of how fat or thin they are. They continue to deprive themselves of food even when it endangers their health. Anorexia nervosa is seen as a modern disease because today's culture equates thinness with beauty. The passage suggests that young girls especially should learn to base their self-confidence in things other than looks as personality is more important than appearance.
