     Beauty has always been regarded as something praiseworthy.Almost everyone thinks attractive
people are happier and healthier, have better marriages and have more respectable occupations.
Personal consultants give them better advice for finding jobs.Even judges are softer on attractive
defendants(被告). 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 thought as having more integrity than plainer men;effort and
ability were thought to account for their success.
     Attractive female executives were considered to have less integrity than unattractive ones;their
success was attributed not to ability but to factors such as luck.
      All unattractive women executives were thought to have more integrity and to be more capable
than the attractive female executives.Interestingly, though, the rise of the unattractive overnight successes
was attributed more to personal relationships and less to ability than that of attractive overnight successes.
      Why are attractive women not thought to be able?An attractive woman is thought to be more
feminine and an attractive man more masculine(有男子氣概的)than the less attractive ones.Thus, an
attractive woman has an advantage in traditionally female jobs, but an attractive woman in a traditionally
masculine position appears to lack the"masculine"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, in 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 utterly defeated unattractive men, but the women who had
been ranked most attractive invariably received the fewest votes.

1. The underlined word "liability"(in Para.1)most probably means "________".
A. misfortune 
B. instability
C. disadvantage  
D. burden

2. In traditionally female jobs, attractiveness________.
A. reinforces(加強(qiáng))the feminine qualities required
B. makes women look more honest and capable
C. is of primary importance to women
D. often enables women to succeed quickly

3. Bowman's experiment reveals that when it comes to politics, attractiveness________.
A. turns out to be an obstacle to men
B. affects men and women alike
C. has as little effect on men as on women
D. is more of an obstacle than a benefit to women

4. It can be inferred from the passage that people's views on beauty are often________.
A. practical  
B. prejudiced
C.oldfashioned  
D. pessimistic

5. The author writes this passage to________.
A. demand equal rights for women
B. emphasize the importance of appearance
C. discuss the negative aspects of being attractive
D. give advice to jobseekers who are attractive

     I'm usually fairly skeptical about any research that concludes that people are either happier or
unhappier or more or less certain of themselves than they were 50 years ago. While any of these
statements might be true, they are practically impossible to prove scientifically. Still, I was struck
by a report which concluded that today's children are significantly more anxious than children in the
1950s. In fact, the analysis showed, normal children aged 9 to 17 exhibit a higher level of anxiety
today than children who were treated for mental illness 50 years ago.
     Why are America's kids so stressed? The report cites two main causes: increasing physical
isolation(隔離) brought on by high divorce rates and less involvement in community, among other
things and a growing perception that the world is a more dangerous place.
     Considering that we_can't_turn_the_clock_back,_adults can still do plenty to help the next
generation.
     At the top of the list is nurturing(培育) a better appreciation of the limits of individualism. No
child is an island. Strengthening social ties helps build communities and protect individuals against
stress.
     To help kids build stronger connections with others, you can pull the plug on TVs and computers.
Your family will thank you later. They will have more time for facetoface relationships, and they will
get more sleep.
     Limit the amount of virtual(虛擬的) violence your children are exposed to. It's not just video games
and movies; children see a lot of murder and crime on the local news.
     Keep your expectations for your children reasonable. Many highly successful people never attended
Harvard or Yale.
     Make exercise part of your daily routine. It will help you cope with your own anxieties and provide
a good model for your kids. Sometimes anxiety is unavoidable. But it doesn't have to ruin your life.

1. According to the analysis, compared with normal children today, children treated as mentally ill 50
    years ago ________.
A. probably suffered less from anxiety
B. were considered less individualistic
C. were less isolated physically
D. were probably less selfcentered

2. What does the author mean by saying "we can't turn the clock back" in the third paragraph?
A. It's impossible to forget the past.
B. The social reality children are facing cannot be forgotten.
C. It's impossible to slow down the pace of change.
D. Lessons learned from the past should not be forgotten.

3. The author thinks that the conclusions of any research about people's state of mind are ________.
A. illogical  
B. confusing
C. surprising 
D. questionable

4. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. To children, anxiety is completely avoidable.
B. TV and computer play an important role in isolating children from the real world.
C. Exercise does not help to lessen children's anxiety.
D. Sometimes local news about crime and murder also affects children a little.

5. The first and most important thing parents should do to help their children is________.
A. to lower their expectations for them
B. to set a good model for them to follow
C. to get them more involved socially
D. to improve them with a safer environment

     As the global financial crisis hits the economy, it's tough finding a job-especially if you're competing
with thousands of other hopeful students. Sometimes you get the interview, but don't quite seem to land
the job because you don't have related experience. Don't despair! Here are a few tips that might give
you an edge.
     Get connected to your network and try to expand it. Talk to friends, family and acquaintances. Let
everyone know you are looking for a job.
     Prepare your resume (個(gè)人簡(jiǎn)歷) carefully and be sure it's perfect. Have someone else read it over
for typos (打字錯(cuò)誤) and grammatical errors. Get professional help. It's worth the money to present
yourself well. If money is tight, read books on resume writing from your public library or search for free
help on the Internet.
     When you apply for a job, be sure you match and list any skills listed on the posting with the skills
you have. If you get an interview, be sure to describe those skills thoroughly. Just having the skills is not
enough. Expressing your abilities well can make all the difference in getting the job.
     Research typical interview questions and practice interviewing. Be well prepared for every interview.
    Don't be afraid to accept a position for which you are overqualified-if there's room for advancements. Many great job advancements come from first doing well at an entrylevel position. If you have the right
skills and attitude, it won't be long before you're in the job you want.
    Volunteer for a few weeks in your field of study to gain experience if you feel your resume needs an
improvement.
     When deciding what to wear for an interview, think about the position level and the dress code of the
organization.

閱讀理解
     Boys need friends, suffer when they don't believe they have any, and worry over the ups and downs
of relationships. Many adults believe that somehow boys need friends less than girls do, in truth, though,
no boy is an island; boys value their friends throughout childhood and adolescence and are happier and
healthier when they have solid relationships with peers(同齡人).
     Despite the common belief that girls are better at relationships, most boys consider their friends a very
important part of their lives, and boys may actually be better at keeping friendships than girls are. A
recent study of 10 to 15yearold boys and girls found that girls' friendships are actually more fragile. Girls
tend to say and do hurtful things to each other more frequently than boys, and girls are more hurt by the
end of a friendship.
     Boys are the living definition of the phrase "peer group"; they love games with rules, competition,
and doing things together. Boys seem to enjoy, even need the opportunity to test themselves against
others, and many lasting friendships begin in karate(空手道) class or on the basketball court.
Competence and skill are widely respected; being picked last for a team or left out altogether is an
experience that can haunt(縈繞心頭) a boy for years.
     As boys mature, the friendship becomes even more important, and it frequently widens to include
girls. During the teen years, friends can become the most important part of a boy's life-and a part in
which his parents are not included. The confusion of being a teenager leads boys to form close bonds
with friends. There is the sense for many boys that a friend is someone who is "always there for me",
someone he can trust. They may be partners in crime or partners in study, but the friendship of
adolescent boys can run surprisingly deep.

1. The common belief of adults is that boys________.
A. don't care about others as much as girls
B. don't value friendship as much as girls
C. have the same friendship as girls
D. have healthier friendship than girls

2. According to the text, boys' friendship________.
A. is usually built around active play
B. tends to be in small groups
C. can bear mutual hurt between friends
D. doesn't suffer from failure

3. The author mentions the study in the second paragraph to prove ________.
A. many people believe girls are better at relationships
B. most boys consider their friends very important
C. boys may be better at keeping friendships than girls
D. boys may be more active in a friendship

4. As a boy gets older, he tends to________.
A.widen his circle of friends to include different kinds of people
B. shift his focus from his friends to himself
C. leave his parents out of his friendship
D. be confused about what a friendship is

5. What's the best title for the text?
A. Friendships between Boys and Girls
B. Boys and Their Friendship

     Moving in with a boyfriend causes women to eat more unhealthily and put on weight. But the opposite
is true for men, whose longterm health benefits when they move in with a female partner.
     Dieticians at Newcastle University said both partners try to please one another, and so change their
dietary habits to suit their other half.
     It leads men to eat more light meals, such as salads, fruit and vegetables, while women choose to
make creamier, heavier dishes like curry or rich pasta sauces, which may please their partner.
     Women still have the strongest longterm influence over the couple's diet and lifestyle, as they still have
the traditional role of shopper and cook in most households.
     The report, by Newcastle University's Human Nutrition Research Centre, reviewed the finding of a
variety of research projects from the UK, North America and Australia, which looked at the eating and
lifestyle habits of couples.
     The research shows that women are more likely to put on weight and increase their consumption of
foods high in fat and sugar when they move in with their partner.
    Women also use food as a comfort when dealing with emotional stress and have been found to gain
weight when a relationship ends, while the same finding has not been observed in men.
    Many couples reported food as being central to their partnership, and eating together in the evening
was particularly important to many.
    Report author and registered dietician Dr. Amelia Lake said, "The research has shown that your
partner is a strong influence on lifestyle and people who are trying to live healthier lives should take this
factor into consideration."

1. According to the passage, moving in with a girlfriend, men ________.
A. have few changes of their dietary habits
B. have to eat more unhealthy foods
C. don't like foods high in fat and sugar at all
D. try to eat foods that their girlfriends like

2. The underlined word "light"(in Paragraph 3 ) probably means ________.
A. not very heavy      
B. less in fat and sugar
C. gentle      
D. not serious or important

3. According to the report by Newcastle University's Human Nutrition Research Centre, ________.
A. women put on weight only because they want to suit their other half
B. when men are faced with emotional stress, they will change their dietary habits
C. eating together in the evening is a good way to communicate for couples
D. it is wrong to change your dietary habits to suit your partner

4. From the passage, we can infer that ________.
A. women should pay more attention to their partner's influence on them
B. more men will play roles of shopper and cook in most households
C. couples will not change their dietary habits and lifestyle to please their partner
D. longterm health of men benefits when they move in with a female partner

5. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. Don't be silly any more, women!
B. Which are better dietary habits?
C. Boyfriends make you fat
D. Dr. Amelia Lake and his study

閱讀下列應(yīng)用文相關(guān)信息,并按照要求匹配信息。
以下是一些生活感想或經(jīng)驗(yàn)介紹:
A. More than nine years ago I was 70 pounds overweight and wore a very big dress. I had tried different diets and lost weight only to gain it back. Finally a simple "threeforone"fat rule worked for me: consuming
no more than three grams of fat for every 100 calories per serving. Following the rule and eating only
foods that contain less than 30 percent fat, I spent eight months getting down to a size seven, and I've
kept the weight off for nine years.
B. And for foods that aren't packaged, you rely on what we already know about them. Red meat,as well
as dishes made or served with butter, gravy, cream, sauce or cheese, are almost never less than 30 percent fat, so you just don't eat them. On the other hand, some nonpacked foods-all fruits and vegetables except avocadoes and olives-always pass the test. So do most fish, but not when fried.
C. I like vegetables, which are rich in vitamins. Most foods containing vitamins C and E (such as sweet
potatoes, tomatoes, spinach and broccoli) are low in calories and are known as antioxidants(抗氧化物質(zhì)). They can help reduce the possibility to develop hardening the arteries(動(dòng)脈).
D. I gain weight around the belly-what we call abdominal obesity, the worst kind. The tendency seems to
be hereditary (遺傳的), and it's common among men. This problem increases the risk of a stroke or heart attack. A guide I use in estimating belly fat is the waisttohip ratio or WHR. To find yours, divide the
circumference (圓周) of your waist by the circumference of you hips. Women with ratios above 0.8 and
men with ratios above 1.0 are at increased health risk.
E. My ways of keeping healthy are very simple, and they are among our everyday activities: eating healthy
food and doing exercise. In addition, I manage to do those basic things, such as drinking water, sleeping
well and eating less fat. Sometimes I do some of the other things I used to do in my life like walking for
half an hour a day.
F.Although I've put on ten pounds, I'm healthy and in good shape. I eat food that's good for me…but I
work off Susan's homemade brownies (巧克力蛋糕), for example, to offset these extra calories, I walk
for an hour or more, three times a week…often with Susan. We're both busy and this is one way we have some quiet time together. Equally important, it permits me to practice dieting's fine art of compromise.
以下是五位專家的建議.請(qǐng)匹配這些建議及對(duì)應(yīng)的生活感想或經(jīng)驗(yàn)介紹(A、B、C、D、E和F).
1. You should watch where your weight accumulates. You can use the waist to hip ratio to find if there is
    too much fat around the middle. Belly fat is especially dangerous because it releases free fatty acids
    directly to the liver, virtually flooding it with fat.
2. If a particular food is important to you, eat it, but work it off. You should try to learn the art of
    compromise.
3. At the same time. the threeforone is relatively simple to use. Fat grams and calories are listed on
    almost all boxed, canned or packaged foods. You have only to read the label and follow the rule.
     A fiveyearold patient of mine can do this.
4. Drinking water is basic, and drinking enough of it is necessary. Patients are sometimes surprised that
    basic things work when they do them consistently.
5. Consume antioxidant foods. They protect the cholesterol(膽固醇) from oxidative damage,which
    helps prevent damage to blood vessel walls.

     We can see how the product life cycle works by looking at the introduction of instant coffee. When it
was introduced, most people did not like it as well as "regular" coffee, and it took several years to gain general
acceptance (introduction stage). At one point, though, instant coffee grew rapidly in popularity, and many
brands were introduced (stage of rapid growth). After a while, people became attached to one brand and
sales leveled off (stage of maturity). Sales went into a slight decline when freeze-dried coffees were
introduced (stage of decline).
     The importance of the product life cycle to marketers is this: Different stages in the product life cycle
call for different strategies. The goal is to extend product life so that sales and profits do not decline. One
strategy is called market modification. It means that marketing managers look for new users and market
sections. Did you know, for example, that the backpacks that so many students carry today were originally
designed for the military?
     Market modification also means searching for increased usage among present customers or going for a
different market, such as senior citizens. A marketer may re-position the product to appeal to new market
sections.
     Another product extension strategy is called product modification. It involves changing product quality,
features, or style to attract new users or more usage from present users. American auto manufacturers are
using quality improvement as one way to recapture world markets. Note, also, how auto manufacturers once
changed styles dramatically from year to year to keep demand from falling.
1. According to the passage, when people grow fond of one particular brand of a product, its sales will _____.
A. decrease gradually
B. remain at the same level
C. become unstable
D. improve enormously
2. Marketers need to know which of the four stages a product is in so as to _____.  
A. work out marketing policies
B. promote its production  
C. increase its popularity
D. speed up its life cycle
3. The author mentions the example of "backpacks" in paragraph two to show the importance of _____.
A. pleasing the young as well as the old
B. increasing usage among students
C. exploring new market sections
D. serving both military and civil needs
4. In order to recover their share of the world market, U.S. auto makers are _____.
A. improving product quality
B. increasing product features
C. modernizing product style
D. re-positioning their product in the market
