A few common misconceptions. Beauty is only skin-deep. One' s physical assets and liabilities don' t count all that much in a managerial career. A woman should always try to look her best.

Over the last 30 years, social scientists have conducted more than 1,000 studies of how we react to beautiful and not- so-beautiful people. The virtually unanimous conclusion: Looks do matter, more than most of us realize. The data suggest, for example, the physically attractive individuals are more likely to be treated well by their parents, sought out as friends, and pursued romantically. With the possible exception of women seeking managerial jobs they are also more likely to be hired, paid well, and promoted.

Un-American, you say, unfair and extremely unbelievable? Once again, the scientists have caught us mouthing pieties (虔誠(chéng)) while acting just the contrary. Their typical experiment works something like this. They give each member of a group--college students, perhaps, or teachers or corporate personnel managers a piece of paper relating an individual' s accomplishments. Attached to the paper is a photograph. While the papers all say exactly the same thing the pictures are different. Some show a strikingly attractive person, some an average-looking character, and some an unusually unattractive human being. Group members are asked to rate the individual on certain attributes, anything from personal warmth to the likelihood that he or she will be promoted.

Almost invariably, the better looking the person in the picture, the higher the person is rated. In the phrase, borrowed from Sappho, that the social scientists use to sum up the common perception, what is beautiful is good.

In business, however, good looks cut both ways for women, and deeper than for men. A Utah State University professor, who is an authority on the subject, explains: In terms of their careers, the impact of physical attractiveness on males is only modest. But its potential impact on females can be tremendous, making it easier, for example, for the more attractive to get jobs where they are in the public eye. on another note, though, there is enough literature now for us to conclude that attractive women who aspire (追求) to managerial positions do not get on as well as who may be less attractive.

1. In "Beauty is only skin-deep", "skin-deep" can be replaced by______.

A. decorating B. superficial C. expressive D. demanding

2. "One's physical assets and liabilities don' t count all that much in a managerial career."(paral) can be interpretated as______.

A. whether or not one looks good or bad, it doesn' t affect much one' s managerial career

B. in one' s managerial career, he may deal with cases like assets and liabilities

C. in one' s managerial career, he may rarely deal with cases like assets and liabilities

D. whether or not one looks good or bad, it may affect much one' s managerial career

3. The result of research carried out by social scientists show that______.

A. people do not realize the importance of looking one' s best

B. women in pursuit of managerial jobs are not likely to be paid well

C. good -looking women aspire to managerial positions

D. attractive people generally have an advantage over those who are not

4. "Good looks cut both ways for women" (Para.5) means that______.

A. attractive women have tremendous potential impact on public job

B. good-looking women always get the best of everything

C. being attractive is not always an advantage for women

D. attractive women do not do as well as unattractive women in managerial positions

5. It can be inferred from the passage that in the business world______.

A. handsome men are not affected as much by their looks as attractive women are

B. physically attractive women who are in the public eye usually do quite well

C. physically attractive men and women who are in the public eye usually get along quite well

D. good looks are important for women as they are for men

Science can't explain the power of pets, but many studies have shown that the company of pets can help lower blood pressure (血壓) and raise chances of recovering from a heart attack, reduce loneliness and spread all-round good cheer.

Any owner will tall you how much joy a pet brings. For some, an animal provides more comfort than a husband/wife. A 2002 study by Karen Allen of the State University of New York measured stress (緊張) levels and blood pressure in people - half of them pet owners –while they performed 5 minutes of mental arithmetic (算術(shù)) or held a hand in ice water. Subjects completed the tasks alone, with a husband/wife, a close friend or with a pet. People with pets did

It best .Those tested with their animal friends had smaller change in blood pressure and returned

Most quickly to baseline heart rates .With pets in the room ,people also made fewer math mistakes

Than when doing in front of other companions. It seems people feel more released (放松)around

Pets, says Allen, who thinks it may be because pets don’t judge.

Year studying 36 fat people and were put on a diet-and-exercise programs; a separate group of

56 fat people without pets were put on a diet program. On average,people lost about 11 pounds

15%of their body weight .Dog owners didn’t lose any more weight than those without dogs but ,say

According to sociologists(社會(huì)學(xué)家),every modern industrial society has some form of social stratification(階層)Classpower and status are important in deciding people’s rank in society.

Class means a person’s economic position in society.A commonly used classification is lower class,middle class and upper class.While sociologists disagree on how these terms should be exactly defined,they do describe societies like the United States quite well.One study shows that 53% of Americans belong to the lower class,46% the middle classand 1% the upper class.Interestingly,a surgeon earning $500,000 a year and a bus driver earning $50,000 a year both regard themselves as the middle class!

Power refers to the amount of control a person has over other people.Obviously,people in positions of great power (such as governors) exercise(行使)big powerbut people who take orders from others have less power.Power and class do not always go hand in hand,however.For example,the governor of a state has great powerbut he or she may not belong to a corresponding (相應(yīng)的)economic class.Generally,however,there is a relationship between power and class.To our knowledgethere aren’t too many people who aren’t millionaires in the US.Senate!

Status is the honor or respect attached to a person’s position in society.It can also be affected by power and class,but not necessarily so.For examplea university professor may have a high status but not belong to a high social class or have a lot of power over others.

1.What can we learn about“the middle class”from Paragraph 2?

APeople earning $50,000 a year belong to the middle class.

BNearly half Americans belong to the middle class.

CPeople generally consider bus drivers as the middle class.

DSociologists have a clear definition of the middle class.

2.According to the textwe know that________.

Apower and class do not always correspond with each other

Bstatus refers to a person’s economic position in society

Cpeople with high status have a lot of control over others

Dclass is less important in deciding a person’s social rank

3.Which of the following shows the structure of the whole text?

Planning a visit to the UK? Here we help with ways to cut your costs.

AVOID BIG EVENTS Big sporting events,concerts and exhibitions can increase the cost of accommodation and make it harder to find a room.A standard double room at the Thistle Brighton on the final Friday of the Brighton Comedy Festival (19 Oct.) cost169.15 at Booking.com.A week later,the same room cost118.15.

If you can be flexible and want to know dates to avoidor you’re looking for a big event to pass your timecheck out sites such as Whatsonwhen.comwhich allow you to search for events in the UK by city,date and category.

STAY AWAY FROM THE STATION If traveling to your destination by train,you may want to find a good base close to the stationbut you could end up paying more for the sake of convenience at the start of your holiday.

Don’t be too choosy about the part of town you stay in.Booking two months in advance,the cheapest room at Travelodge’s Central Euston hotel in London for Saturday 22 September was95.95.A room just a tube journey away at its Covent Garden hotel was75.75.And at Farringdona double room cost just62.95.

LOOK AFTER YOURSELF Really central hotels in cities such as London,Edinburgh and Cardiff can cost a fortune,especially at weekends and during big events.As an alternative consider checking into a self?catering flat with its own kitchen.Often these flats are hidden away on the top floors of city centre buildings.A great example is the historic O’Neill Flat on Edinburgh’s Royal Mile,available for420 for five days in late September,with room for four adults.

GET ON A BIKE London’s ‘Boris bikes’ have attracted the most attentionbut other cities also have similar programmes that let you rent a bicycle and explore at your own pace,saving you on public transport or car parking costs.
