You will be defined as guilty.BYou might think that good-looking men have every advantage in life. But a new study suggests being handsome may not always work in a mans favour at lea

29、st when it comes to his career. The research claims that attractive men are less likely to be given a job in a competitive workplace because they intimidate bosses. “Its not always an advantage to be pretty,” says Marko Pitesa, an assistant professor at the University of Maryland. “It can backfire i

30、f you are thought of as a threat.” Interestingly, in Pitesas study, it was male attractiveness in particular, rather than female beauty, that made the most difference. If the interviewer expected to work with the candidate as part of a team, then he preferred good-looking men. However, if the interv

31、iewer saw the candidate as a potential competitor, the interviewer discriminated in favor of unattractive men. In the first experiment, 241 adults were asked to evaluate fictional job candidates based on fake qualifications and experience, in an online setting. Men evaluated men and women evaluated

32、women. Interviewers were primed to either think of the candidate as a future co-operator or competitor, and they were given a computer-generated headshot that was either attractive or unattractive. A second experiment involved 92 people in a lab. They were asked to evaluate future competitors or par

33、tners in a quiz game, based on credentials that included sample quiz answers, and they saw similar headshots. There was still a preference to cooperate with the attractive man and compete against the unattractive man. A final experiment used photographs of actual European business school students, v

34、etted for attractiveness, and found the same pattern. The results suggest that interviewers were not blinded by beauty, and instead calculated which candidate would further their own career. “The way we explain it here, pretty men just seem more competent, so it is actually subjectively reasonable t

35、o discriminate for or against them.” Pitesa says. On a deeper level, she adds, the behavior remains unreasonable, since theres no evidence that a real link exists between looks and competence.58. According to the first three paragraphs, why do attractive men sometimes have difficulty finding a job?

36、A. They are considered as potential threats.B. They are considered as potential losers.C. They seem to be hard to cooperate with.D. They seem to be uncompetitive.59. According to the results of the three experiments, which of the following is true?A. Interviewees attractiveness blinds the interviewe

37、rs.B. Interviewees attractiveness doesnt play any role in interviews.C. Interviewees hold advantages when interviewers are picking their team members. D. Interviewers prefer unattractive people when they are expanding their teams.60. The passage focuses on _. A. why attractive men are less competiti

38、veB. why attractive women are more likely to land a jobC. how unreasonable prejudice towards appearance works D. whether looks are related to competenceCTo err is human. To blame the other guy is even more human.Common sense is not all that common.Why tell the truth when you can come up with a good

39、excuse?These three popular misquotes（误用的引语）are meant to be jokes, and yet they tell us a lot about human nature. To err, or to make mistakes, is indeed a part of being human, but it seems that most people dont want to accept the responsibility for the problem. Perhaps it is the natural thing to do.

40、The original quote about human nature went like this, “ To err is human, to forgive is divine（神圣的）.” This saying mirrors an ideal: people should be forgiving of others mistakes. Instead, we tend to do the opposite find someone else to pass the blame on to. However, taking responsibility for somethin

41、g that went wrong is a making of great maturity.Common sense is what we call clear thought. Having common sense means having a good general plan that will make things work well, and it also means staying with the plan. Common sense tells you that you take an umbrella out into a rainstorm, but you le

42、ave the umbrella home when you hear a weather forecast for sunshine. Common sense does not seem to be common for large organizations, because there are so many things going on that one person cannot be in charge of everything. People say that in a large company, “the right hand does not know what th

43、e left hand is doing.”And what is wrong with a society that thinks that making up a good excuse is like creating a work of art? One of the common problems with making excuses is that people, especially young people, get the idea that its okay not to be totally honest all the time. There is a corolla

44、ry（推论）to that: if a good excuse is “good” even if it isnt honest, then where is the place of the truth?61. According to tile passage, which of following seems the most human?A. To search for truth.B. To achieve ones ideal.C. To make fun of others mistakes.D. To criticize others for ones own error.62

45、. According to the author, what is a sign of a mans maturity?A. Doing things his own way.B. Making as few mistakes as possible.C. Bearing responsibility for his mistakes. D. Thinking seriously about his wrongdoing.63. Which of the following is NOT based on common sense?A. A lawyer acts on fine judgm

46、ents.B. A companys next move follows a good plan. C. A student goes out with an umbrella in stormy weather.D. A man tries to take charge of everything in a large company. 64. What is the authors opinion about a good excuse?A. Bitter truth is better than a good excuse. B. A good excuse is as rewardin

47、g as honesty.C. Inventing a good excuse needs creative ideas.D. Making a good excuse is sometimes a better policy.65. What would be the best title for this passage?A. Truth or Excuse B. A Mark of MaturityC. To Blame or to Forgive D. A Mirror of Human NatureDKino, a poor fisherman, has just found a v

48、ery large and valuable pearl（珍珠）and is going to the nearest town to sell it. He needs money urgently to get medical help for his baby who has just been stung（蜇刺）by a scorpion. Before Kino found the pearl, the only doctor available had refused to treat the baby because Kino could not afford to pay fo

49、r the treatment.A town is a thing like a colonial animal. A town has a nervous system and a head and shoulders and feet. A town is a thing separate from all other towns, so that there are no two towns alike. And a town has a whole emotion. How news travels through a town is a mystery not easily to b

50、e solved. News seems to move faster than small boys can run to tell it, faster than women can call it over the fences.Before Kino and Juana and the other fishers had come to Kinos brush house, the nerves of the town were pulsing and trembling with the news Kino had found the Pearl of the World. Befo

51、re panting（气喘吁吁) little boys could strangle out the words, their mothers knew it. The news swept on past the brush houses, and it washed in a breaking wave into the town of stone and plaster. It came to the priest walking in his garden, and it put a thoughtful look in his eyes and a memory of certai

52、n repairs necessary to the church. He wondered what the pearl would be worth. And he wondered whether he had baptized（施洗礼）Kinos baby, or married him for that matter. The news came to the shopkeepers and they looked at mens clothes that had not sold so well.The news came to the doctor where he sat wi

53、th a woman whose illness was age, though neither she nor the doctor would admit it. And when it was made plain who Kino was, the doctor grew serious and judicious（明智的）at the same time. “He is a client of mine,” the doctor said. “I am treating his child for a scorpion sting.” And the doctors eyes rol

54、led up a little and he thought of Paris. He remembered the room he had lived in there as a great and luxurious place. The doctor looked past his aged patient and saw himself sitting in a restaurant in Paris and a waiter was just opening a bottle of wine.The news came early to the beggars in front of the church, and it made them giggle a little with pleasure, for they knew that there is
