　　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（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 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 has an advantage in traditionally female jobs, but an attractive woman in a traditionally manly position appears to lack the “manly”qualifies 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（候选人）. 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 completely defeated unattractive men, but the women who had ranked most attractive unchangeably received the fewest votes.

60．The word “liability” most probably means ________.

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

61．Bowman’s experiment shows that when it comes to politics, attractiveness________

　　A．turns out to　be a disadvantage to men

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

　　C．has as little effect on men as on women

　　D．affects men and women alike

62．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

63．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

C

　　Some people believe that international sport brings about good will between the nations and that if countries play games together they will learn to live together. Others say that the opposite is true: that international contests encourage false national pride and lead to misunderstanding and hatred. There is probably some truth in both arguments, but in recent years the Olympic Games have done little to support the view that sport encourages international brotherhood. Not only was there the terrible incident with the murder of athletes, but the Games were also ruined by those incidents caused mainly by minor national contests.

　　One country received its second - place medal with great anger after the hockey final. There had been noisy scenes at the end of the hockey match, the losers objecting to the final decisions. They were certain that one of their goals should not have been dismissed and that the opposite side’s victory was unfair. Their manager was angry when he said: “This wasn’t hockey. Hockey and the International Hockey Society are finished. “The president of the society said later that such words could result in the pause of the team for at least three years.

　　The American basketball team announced that they would not give away first place to Russia, after a fighting end to their contest. The game had ended in quarrel. It was thought at first that the United States had won, by a single point, but it was announced that there were three seconds still to play, A Russian player then threw the ball from one end of the court to the other, and another player beat it into the basket. It was the first time the USA had ever lost an Olympic basketball match. The judges discussed the matter for four and a half hours before announcing that the result would stand. The American players then decided not to receive the silver medals.

　　Incidents of this kind will continue as long as sport is played for honors or money rather than for the love of the game. The suggestion that sportsmen should compete as individuals , or in non national teams, might be too much to hope for. But in the present organization of the Olympics there is far too much that encourages dangerous nationalism.

64．According to the author, recent Olympic Games have ________.

　　A．brought about goodwill between the nations

　　B．made only false national pride

　　C．hardly showed any international friendship

　　D．led to more and more misunderstanding and hatred

65．What did the manager mean by saying, “… Hockey and the International Hockey Society are finished”? ________.

　　A．His team would no longer take part in international games

　　B．Hockey and the society are both ruined by the unfair decisions

　　C．There should be no more hockey matches organized by the society

　　D．The society should be dismissed

66．The author gives the two examples in paragraphs 2 and 3 to show________.

　　A．how false national pride leads to undesirable incidents in international games

　　B．that sport men have been more troublesome than they used to be

　　C．that competitiveness in the games discourages international friendship

　　D．that unfair decisions are common in Olympic Games.

67．What conclusion can be drawn from the passage? ________.

　　A．The organization of the Olympic Games must be improved

　　B．Athletes should compete as individuals in the Olympic Games

　　C．Sport should be played competitively rather than for the love of the game

D．International contests lead to misunderstanding between nations.

　　“A suicide bomber came and there were many soldiers…and he blew himself up.” said Ron Nachman, mayor of the settlement of Ariel. “Soldiers were among the casualties. ”People on the spot said the bomber blew up after soldiers eating at a food stand in a petrol station at the entrance of the settlement found him.

The Magen David Adorn ambulance service said at least three people were killed and at least 30 wounded in the blast, which set the bomber burning at Ariel, about 25 kilometers east of Tel Avi v.

I live in Japan, where electronic items are a way of life, so it is no surprise that many students carry these little electronic dictionaries. E-dictionaries may be light and compact(简洁的) more so than any paper dictionary. 71___ It depends on which one you buy. To me, these are pretty much the limits to their advantages.

I think e-dictionaries should be limited in their use in classrooms. 72____

E-dictionaries are much more expensive. In Japan, they cost as little as 10,000 yen (US$100)much as 40,000 yen, depending on how many functions you want (or think you want) and depending on how fashionable you are. My trusty Random House paper dictionary is copyrighted at1995, cost me a mere US$12.95 plus tax.

E-dictionaries are more fragile(易碎的). Drop your paper dictionary. Go ahead. Hold it above your head and drop it. 73

E-dictionaries need batteries. Batteries are temperature sensitive. Batteries cost money, too.

E-dictionaries have keypads. Typing in the spelling of a word is harder and more time consuming than looking through pages and using the index at the top of each page.

_74____ Such little devices beep(嘟嘟声) when you press the buttons, but it is very disturbing to some people in a classroom situation or library.

Finally, let’s consider making corrections or additions. No dictionary is perfect, paper version or electronic. However, when you find something you’d like to change in the e-dictionary, you can’t do anything about it. You can pencil in some notes with the paper type. Similarly, if you learn a word that isn’t in the dictionary, a few notes of a pencil make it easy to increase its memory capacity.

__75__ And, for those students whose habit is to mark certain words with a highlight pen for ease of future reference, again, the paper dictionary wins out.

A．But it is impossible to do so with a keypad model

B．They may even contain more words and expressions

C．Sometimes e-dictionaries trouble you and you really don’t know how to get rid of them

D．Now, try this with any lightweight plastic e-dictionary, and you’ll be picking up the pieces

E．That huge, heavy paper dictionary that you see in your library looks like a building block in size and weight.

F．E-dictionaries have advantages as well as disadvantages

G．Let’s take a look at the following reasons

Dear Mayor,

I’m a resident(居民) of the city. I feel there are many problems existing in the trade of taxi in our city. First of all, there are still not enough stops in the streets so it’s not easy to take a taxi. And they often pick up some passengers without any reason. Another terrible thing which often happens is that deep at night taxis waiting around the entertainment places make much noise. Many people suffer from this inconsiderate action. A friend of mine living in another city once visited me, and she told me our city’s taxi drivers cheated her by taking a roundabout route. What will a guest think of our city after such a bad experience? I think we must take actions to tighten control over the taxi trade. Maybe the first thing to do is raise the taxi drivers’ professional morality. We are looking forward to your reply.

Sincerely yours,
Li Hua
