11、#160;  A few common misconceptions. Beauty is only skin deep. One's physical assets and liabilities don't count all that much in a managerial career. A woman should always try to look her best.    Over the last 30 years, social scientists have conducted more than 1,000 studies

12、 of how we react to beautiful and not so beautiful people. The virtually unanimous conclusion: Looks do matter, more than most of us realize. The data suggest, for example, that physically attractive individuals are more likely to be treated well by their parents, sought out as friends, and pursued

13、romantically. With the possible exception of women seeking managerial jobs, they are also more likely to be hired, paid well, and promoted. Once again, the scientists have caught us mouthing pieties(虔誠(chéng)) while acting just the contrary. Their typical experiment works something like this. They give eac

14、h member of a group college students, or teachers or corporate personnel mangersa piece of paper relating an individual's accomplishments. Attached to the paper is a photograph. While the papers all say exactly the same thing the pictures are different. Some show a strikingly attractive person,

15、some an average-looking character, and some an unusually unattractive human being. Group members are asked to rate the individual on certain attributes, anything from personal warmth to the likelihood that he or she will be promoted. Almost invariably, the better looking the person in the picture, t

16、he higher the person is rated. In the phrase, borrowed from Sappho, that the social scientists use to sum up the common perception, what is beautiful is good.    In business, however, good looks cut both ways for women, and deeper than for men. A Utah State University professor, who is an

17、authority on the subject, explains: In terms of their careers, the impact of physical attractiveness on males is only modest. But its potential impact on females can be tremendous, making it easier, for example, for the more attractive to get jobs where they are in the public eye. On another note, t

18、hough, there is enough literature now for us to conclude that attractive women who aspire(追求) to managerial positions do not g et on as well as women who may be less attractive. 1). According to the passage, people often wrongly believe that in pursuing a career as a manager _. A. a person'

19、s property or debts do not matter muchB. a person's outward appearance is not a critical qualificationC. women should always dress fashionablyD. women should not only be attractive but also high minded      滿分：2  分2). The result of research carried ou

20、t by social scientists show that _.A. people do not realize the importance of looking one's bestB. women in pursuit of managerial jobs are not likely to be paid wellC. good looking women aspire to managerial positionsD. attractive people generally have an advantage over those who are not &#

21、160;    滿分：2  分3). Experiments by scientists have shown that when people evaluate individuals on certain attributes _.A. they observe the principle that beauty is only skin deepB. they do not usually act according to the views they supportC. they give ordinary look

22、ing persons the lowest ratingsD. they tend to base their judgment on the individual's accomplishments      滿分：2  分4). "Good looks cut both ways for women"(Line 1, Para.5) means that _.A. attractive women have tremendous potential impact on p

23、ublic jobsB. good looking women always get the best of everythingC. being attractive is not always an advantage for womenD. attractive women do not do as well as unattractive women in managerial positions      滿分：2  分5).  It can be inferred from the passa

25、important for women as they are for men      滿分：2  分1.         In order to talk about the nature of the universe and to discuss questions such as whether it has a beginning or an end, you have to be clear about what a scienti

26、fic theory is. I shall take the simple-minded view that a theory is just a model of the universe, or a restricted part of it, and a set of rules that relate quantities in the model to observations that we make.It exists only in our minds and does not have any other reality. A theory is a good theory

27、 if it satisfies two requirements. It must accurately describe a large class of observations on the basis of a model that contains only a few arbitrary elements, and it must make definite predictions about the results of future observations.For example, Aristotles theory that everything was made out

28、 of four elements, earth, air, fire, and water, was simple enough to qualify, but it did not make any definite predictions. On the other hand, Newtons theory of gravity was based on an even simpler model, in which bodies attracted each other with a force that was proportional to a quantity called th

29、eir mass and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. Yet it predicts the motion of the sun, the moon, and the planets to a high degree of accuracy.       Any physical theory is always provisional, in the sense that it is only a hypothesis: you

30、 can never prove it. No matter how many times the results of experiments agree with some theory, you can never be sure that the next time the result will not contradict the theory. On the other hand, you can disprove a theory by finding even a single observation that disagrees with the predictions o

31、f the theory. In practice, what often happens is that a new theory that is devised is really an extension of the previous theory.      The eventual goal of science is to provide a single theory that describes the whole universe. However, the approach most scientists actually

32、 follow is to separate the problem into two parts. First, there are the laws that tell us how the universe changes with time. If we know what the universe is like at any one time, these physical laws tell us how it will look at any later time. Second, there is the question of the initial state of th

33、e universe. Some people feel that science should be concerned with only the first part; they regard the question of the initial situation as a matter for religion. They would say that God could have started the universe off any way he wanted. That may be so, but in that case he also could have made

34、it develop in a completely arbitrary way. Yet it appears that he chose to make it evolve in a very regular way according to certain laws. It therefore seems equally reasonable to suppose that there are also laws governing the initial state.       It turns out to be very

35、 difficult to devise a theory to describe the universe all in one go. Instead, we break the problem up into bits and invent a number of partial theories. Each of these partial theories describes and predicts a certain limited class of observations, neglecting the effects of other quantities, or repr

36、esenting them by simple sets of numbers. It may be that this approach is completely wrong. If everything in the universe depends on everything else in a fundamental way, it might be impossible to get close to a full solution by investigating parts of the problem in isolation. Nevertheless, it is cer

37、tainly the way that we have made progress in the past. The classical example is the Newtonian theory of gravity, which tells us that the gravitational force between two bodies depends only on one number associated with each body, its mass, but is otherwise independent of what the bodies are made of.

38、 Thus one does not need to have a theory of the structure and constitution of the sun and the planets in order to calculate their orbits.      Today scientists describe the universe on terms of two basic partial theories the general theory of relativity and quantum mechanics

39、. They are the great intellectual achievements of the first half of this century. The general theory of relativity describes the force of gravity and the large-scale structure of the universe. Quantum mechanics, on the other hand, deals with phenomena on extremely small scales, such as a millionth o

40、f a millionth of an inch. Unfortunately, however, these two theories are known to be inconsistent with each other they cannot both be correct. One of the major endeavors in physics today, is the search for a new theory that will incorporate them both a quantum theory of gravity. We do not yet have s

41、uch a new theory, and we may still be a long way from having one, but we do already know many of the properties that it must have.1). According to the author, a theory is all of the following EXCEPT for _.A. a model of the universeB. a restricted part of the universeC. a set of rulesD. a realit
