Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be the most wonderful thing in the world.Years later, during her final illness, mother kept different things for my sister and brother. “But the desk,” she said again, “is for Elizabeth.”I never saw her angry, never saw her cry.

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 (被告). But in the executive (行政的；管理的) 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; 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, 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.46. The word liability in the 1st paragraph most probably means _. A. disadvantage B. advantage C. misfortune D. trouble47. In traditionally female jobs, attractiveness _. A. makes women look more honest and capable B. strengthens the qualifies required C. is of no importance to women D. often enables women to succeed quickly48. Bowmans 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. affects men and women alike D. has as little effect on men as on women49. It can be inferred from the passage that peoples views on beauty are often _. A. practical B. supportive C. old-fashioned D. one-sided50. The author writes this passage to _. A. give advice to job-seekers who are attractive B. discuss the disadvantages of women being attractiveC. demand equal rights for women D. state the importance of appearance四、单词拼写 （共10小题；每小题0.5分，满分5分）51.It was two oclock before Christmas and the mall was c_ with shoppers.52.Charles Chaplin was one of the famous c_ in the period of silent films.53.

If you can avoid conflict, it means you will win what you want regardless of what the other person wants. Since the potential issue has not been removed, it will simply reappear later. Lets see what you can do. Be aware of the fact that some conflicts are unavoidable at work. On numerous occasions, conflict and disagreement are likely to happen. But when a conflict happens its not the end of the world. On the contrary, it can be the beginning of an interesting learning process. Conflicts mean that people care enough to disagree strongly. The trick is not to allow the conflict to go on forever. Deal with conflicts sooner rather than later. Solve a conflict when it starts, as it only gets worse with time going by. Conflicts at work arise not from something that was said, but from something that wasnt said! Everyones waiting for the other to admit hes wrong and gets more unpleasant after the conflict has lasted a while. Its essential to interrupt the waiting game before it gets to that point.
