  Beauty has always been regarded as something praiseworthy. Almost everyone thinks attractive people are happier and healthier, have better marriages and have more respectable jobs. Personal advisors give them better advice for finding jobs. Even judges are softer on attractive defendants. But in the executive 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 plainer men; 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 rise of the unattractive overnight successes was connected more to personal relationships and less to ability than that of the attractive overnight successes.

     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, but an attractive woman in a traditionally manly position appears to lack the "manly" qualities required.

     This is true even in politics. "When 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. She asked 125 undergraduate students to rank two groups of photographs, one of men and one of

women, ir o_nler 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, but the women who had ranked most attractive unchangeably received the fewest votes.

51. The word "liability" most probably means        

    A. disadvantage     B. advantage         C. misfortune        D. trouble

52. In traditionally female jobs, attractiveness       

      A. makes women look more honest and capable

      B. strengthens the feminine qualifies required

      C. is of no importance to women

      D. often enables women to succeed quickly

53. Bowman's experiment shows that when it comes to polities, attractiveness        

      A. turns out to be a disadvantage to men

      B. is more of a disadvantage than an advantage to women

      C. affects men and women alike

      D. has as little effect on men as on women

54. It can be inferred from the passage that people's views on beauty are often      

      A. practical     B. supportive      C. old-fashioned    D. one-sided

55. The author writes this passage to

      A. give advice to job-seekers who are attractive

      B. discuss the disadvantages of being attractive

      C. demand equal rights for women

      D. state the importance of appearance

To err is human.To blame the other guy is even more human.

Common sense is not all that common.

Why tell the truth when you can come up with a good excuse?

These three popular misquotes(戲謔的引語(yǔ))are meant to be jokes, and yet they tell us a lot about human nature.To err, or to make mistakes, is indeed a part of being human, but it seems that most people don't want to accept the responsibility for the problem. Perhaps it is the natural thing to do. The original quote about human nature went like this:“To err is human, to forgive, divine(神圣的).”This saying mirrors an ideal people should be forgiving of others' mistakes. Instead, we tend to do the opposite—find someone else to pass the blame on to. However, taking responsibility for something that went wrong is a making of great maturity.

Common sense is what we call clear thought. Having common sense means having a good general plan that will make things work well, and it also means staying with the plan. Common sense tells you that you take an umbrella out into a rainstorm, but you leave the umbrella home when you hear a weather forecast for sunshine.Common sense does not seem to be common for large organizations, because there are so many things going on that one person cannot be in charge of everything. People say that in a large company,“the right hand does not know what the left hand is doing.”

And what is wrong with a society that thinks that making up a good excuse is like creating a work of art? One of the common problems with making excuses is that people, especially young people. Get the idea that it's okay not to be totally honest all the time. There is a corollary(直接推論)to that: if good excuse is “good”even if it isn't honest, then where is the place of the truth?

6. According to the passage, which of the following seems the most human?

A. To search for truth.

B. To achieve one's ideal.

C. To make fun of others' mistakes.

D. To criticize others for one's own error.

7. According to the author, what is a sign of a man's maturity?

A. Doing things his own way.

B. Bearing responsibility for his mistakes.

C. Making as few mistakes as possible.

D. Thinking seriously about his wrongdoing.

8. Which of the following is NOT based on common sense?

A. A man tries to take charge of everything in a large company.

B. A student goes out with an umbrella in stormy weather.

C. A company's next move follows a good plan.

D. A lawyer acts on fine judgments.

9. What is the author's opinion about a good excuse?

A. Making a good excuse is sometimes a better policy.

B. Inventing a good excuse needs creative ideas.

C. A good excuse is as rewarding as honesty.

D. Bitter truth is better than a good excuse.

10. What would be the BEST title for his passage?

A. A Mirror of Human Nature

B. To Blame or to Forgive

C. A Mark of Maturity  

D. Truth or Excuse
