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，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.55In traditionally female jobs，attractiveness_.Amakes women look more honest and capableBstrengthens the feminine qualities requiredCis of great importance to womenDoften enables women to succeed quickly56Bowmans experiment shows that when it comes to politics，attractiveness_.Aturns out to be a disadvantage on menBis more of a disadvantage than an advantage to womenCaffects men and women alikeDhas as little effect on men as on women57It can be inferred from the passage that peoples views on beauty are often_.Apractical BsupportiveColdfashioned Donesided58The author writes this passage to_.Agive advice to jobseekers who are attractiveBdiscuss the disadvantages of being attractiveCdemand equal rights for womenDstate the importance of appearanceCChinese President Hu Jintao shook hands with US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton(L) during a meeting in the Great Hall of the People in Beijing February 21,2020.Clinton said on Saturday the United States and China can pull the world out of economic crisis by working together.AgenciesBEIJING，Feb.21 (xinhua)Chinese President Hu Jintao met with US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton here on Saturday，stressing that it is of ever great importance to further deepen and develop Sino-US relations.Hu appreciated Clinton for her inaugural visit to China and other parts of Asia since taking office，saying this reflects the importance the new US administration puts on developing relations with China and other Asian countries.Clinton said she had “very good meetings” with Chinese officials during her visit，which she called the beginning of “a new era” of Sino-US relations characterized by positive cooperation.She also conveyed President Obamas personal greetings to President Hu，saying Obama enjoyed earlier conversations with Hu and looked forward to meeting with Hu at a G20 summit in London in early April.Clinton said the US and China had agreed in principle to start a strategic and economic dialogue between the two sides.She said President Obama and President Hu are expected to formally announce the plan in London.Clinton arrived in Beijing on Friday evening.Beijing is the last stop of the Asian tour that took her to Japan，Indonesia and the Republic of Korea.59The passage is probably taken from a_.AmagazineBguideCnewspaperDfiction60The underlined phrase“very good meetings”most probably means_.Aa good occasion in which people come together to discuss or decide something at a meetingBa pleasant situation in which two or more people meet togetherCa good sports event or set of racesDa pleasing place where a certain person is interviewed61How many countries does the Asian tour of Clinton include?A2. B3. C4. D5.62The best title for this passage might be_.AChinese president meets US Secretary of StateBThe Asian tour of ClintonCIt is very important to further deepen SinoUS relationsDChina can pull the world out of economic crisisDFor many years Henry had been a journalist.He had worked on many international newspapers and magazines and travelled all over the world.Henry had witnessed wars and natural disasters such as floods，earthquakes and erupting volcanos.He had reported on serious accidents such as major fires and airline crashes.He had seen every kind of terrible crime and strange occurrences.He had met and written about some of the most unusual people in the world.In fact，there wasnt much that Henry had not seen or done.Now he was retired from journalism.He owned a very expensive restaurant and spent his days talking to his wealthy and important customers.He liked to say that nothing surprised him.One day，he was sitting at the bar in his restaurant when a huge gorilla (大猩猩) walked in and asked for a table.Henry showed no surprise.He took the gorilla to a table and handed him a menu.He treated him politely and pretended there was nothing at all strange about having a gorilla in his restaurant.The gorilla looked through the menu and ordered a salad.Henry served the gorilla his salad personally，knowing that his waiters and waitresses would be too frightened.At last the gorilla finished his salad and asked for the check.Henry wrote out the bill and handed it to the enormous animal.The gorilla studied it，shocked at a little moment，and then shook his head sadly，and gave Henry fifty dollars.“Thank you，”Henry said，and then to make conversation he added，“We dont get many gorillas in this restaurant.”“At fifty dollars for a salad，” the gorilla said，“Im not surprised about that.”63Henry once was_.Aa scientist Ba waiter Ca journalist Da cook64Henry_.Ahad the most common experiencesBowned a restaurantChadnt been to many countriesDwas a badtempered person65Henry was_.Avery surprised to see the gorillaBnot surprised to see the gorillaCattracted by the gorillaDscared of the gorilla66The gorilla was_.Adisappointed with the saladBstill hungry after his saladCsurprised at the amount of the foodDsurprised at the priceEExpressions about water are mostly as common as water itself.The expression “to be in hot water” is one of them.It is a very old expression.Hot water was used five hundred years ago to mean being in trouble.One story says it got that meaning from the custom of throwing extremely hot water down on enemies attacking a castle.That no longer happens.But we still get “in hot water”When we are in hot water，we are in trouble.It can be any kind of trouble，serious or not so serious.A person who breaks a law can be in hot water with the police.A young boy can be in hot water with his mother if he walks in the house with dirty shoes.“Being in deep water” is almost the same as being in hot water.When you are in deep water，you are in a difficult position.Imagine a person who can not swim being thrown in water over his head.You are in deep water when you are facing a problem that you dont have the ability to solve.You can be in deep water，for example，if you invest in stocks without knowing anything about the stock ma
