Almost everyone thinks attractive people are happier, have better marriages and have more respectable jobs. Personal advisors give them better advice for finding jobs. Even judges are softer with attractive defendants. But in the executive(主管的) circle,beauty can become a liability. While attractiveness is a positive factor for a man on his way up the executive ladder,it is harmful to a woman.Handsome male executives were considered as having more honesty than plain men, and effort and ability were thought to lead to their success. Attractive female executives were considered to have less honesty than unattractive ones; their success was connected not with ability but with factors such as luck. All unattractive women executives were thought to have more honesty and to be more capable than the attractive female executives. Interestingly, though, the overnight success of the unattractive was attributed more to personal relationships and less to ability than that of the attractive. Why are attractive women not thought to be able? An attractive woman is considered to be more feminine and an attractive man more manly than the less attractive ones. Thus, an attractive woman has an advantage in traditionally female jobs, hut an attractive woman in a traditionally manly position appears to lack the “manly” qualities required. This is true even in politics. kiWhen the only clue is how he or she looks,people treat men and women differently,says Anne Bowman, who recently published a study on the effects of attractiveness on political candidates (候选人). She asked 125 undergraduate students to rank two groups of photographs, one of men and the other of women,in the order of attractiveness. The students were told the photographs were of candidates for political offices. They were asked to rank them again, in the order they would vote for them. The results showed that attractive males completely defeated unattractive men, hut the women who had been ranked the most attractive unchangeably received the fewest votes.1.The word “liability” most probably means_.A.disadvantageB.advantageC.misfortuneD.trouble2.It can be inferred from the passage that peoples views on beauty are often_.A.practicalB.supportiveC.old-fashionedD.one-sided3.The author writes this passage to_.A.give advice to job-seekers who are attractiveB.discuss the disadvantages of being attractiveC.demand equal rights for womenD.state the importance of appearance7、 An elephant in a South Korean zoo is using his trunk to pick up not only food, but also human vocabulary. An international team of scientists confirmed on Friday what Everland Zoo has been saying for years: Their 5.5-ton tusker Koshik has an unusual and possibly unprecedented talent. The 22-year-old Asian elephant can reproduce five Korean words by tucking his trunk inside his mouth to modulate sound, the scientists said in a joint paperpublished online in Current Biology. They said he may have started imitating human speech because he was lonely. Koshik can reproduce “annyeong”(hello),“anja” (sit down),“ aniya ( no),“ nuwo (lie down) and joa(good) , the paper says. One of the researchers said there is no conclusive evidence that Koshik understands the sounds he makes, although the elephant does respond to words like anja. Researchers said the clearest scientific evidence that Koshik is deliberately imitating human speech is that the sound frequency of his words matches that of his trainers. Vocal imitation of other species has been found in mockingbirds, parrots and mynahs. But the paper says Koshiks case represents “ a wholly novel method of vocal production because he uses his trunk to reproduce human speech. Researchers believe Koshiklearned to reproduce words out of adesire to bond with his trainers afterhe was separated from two otherelephants at age 5. Koshik emerged as a staramong animal enthusiasts and children in South Korea after Everland Zoo claimed in 2006 that he could imitate words, two years after his trainers noticed the phenomenon. His growing reputation prompted Austrian biologist Angela Stoeger- Horwath and German biophysicist Daniel Mietchen to study him in 2010, zoo officials said. Kim Jong-gab, Koshiks chief trainer, said the elephant was timid for a male when he first came to Everland Zoo, so trainers often slept in the same area with him. Kim thinks that contact helped Koshik feel closer to humans. Kim said he has another expression he wants to teach Koshik: “Saranghae” or “I love you.1.According to the passage, what is the possible reason why Koshik imitates human speech?A.He feels very lonely.B.He earns money for his zoo.C.He has a gift for speech.D.He wants to make his trainer happy.2.Koshik can reproduce the following words EXCEPT_.A.annyeongB.nuwoC.SaranghaeD.joa3.From the passage, we can know that_.A.Koshik began to imitate human speech in 2006B.Koshik is a 22-year-old Asian female elephantC.Kim Jong-gab is the manager of Everland ZooD.Koshik is a star in animal enthusiasts and kids in South Korea4.The underlined word “prompted in the passage probably means_.A.causedB.expandedC.developedD.changed七选五8、根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Interruptions are one of the worst things to deal with while youre trying to get work done._,there are several ways to handle things.Lets take a look at them now. _.Tell the person youre sorry and explain that you have a million things to do and then ask if the two of you can talk at a different time.When people try to interrupt you,have set hours planned and let them know to come back during that time or that youll find them then._.It can help to eliminate(消除) future interruptions.When you need to talk to someone,dont do it in your own office._,its much easier to excuse yourself to get back to your work than if you try to get someone out of your space even after explaining how busy you are.

One of the old mans legs was injured and it was bleeding. Many people crowded around him. Someone suggested the old man be taken somewhere in the shade of a tree. But Li Lei strongly disagreed. He had learned some knowledge about first aid before. He said that they ought to leave the old man where he was and check him. At that time the old man was not breathing.
