Some people have the feeling that nothing can be done about their poor reading ability (能力). They feel hopless about it. Can you learn to read better, or must you agree that nothing can be done about it?
To be sure, people are different. You cannot expect to do everything as well as certain other people do. If all the students in a class tried out for basketball, some would be very good players; others would be very poor; and many would be in between. But even the very poor players can become much better players if they are guided in the right way, and with plenty of practice. It is the same with reading. Some seem to enjoy reading and to read well without any special help. Others find reading a slow and tiring job. In between, there are all degrees of reading ability.
Many experiments have shown that just about every poor reader can improve his reading ability. In these experiments, the poor readers were given tests of reading ability. After some of the causes of their poor reading were discovered, they were given special instructiong and practice in reding. After a few months, another test of the same kind was given. In nearly all cases, these people had raised their reading scores.
1. With the example of basketball players, the author shows .
A. why certain people are poor readers.

Europe is not a gender-equality heaven. In particular, the corporate workplace will never be completely family-friendly until women are part of senior management decisions, and Europe’s top corporate-governance positions remain overwhelmingly male. Indeed, women hold only 14 percent of positions on Europe corporate boards.
The Europe Union is now considering legislation(立法) to compel corporate boards to maintain a certain proportion of women---up to 60 percent. This proposed mandate(强制执行) was born of frustration. Last year, Europe Commission Vice President Viviane Reding issued a call to voluntary action. Reding invited corporations to sign up for gender balance goal of 40 percent female board membership. But her appeal was considered a failure: only 24 companies took it up.
Do we need quotas(定量) to ensure that women can continue to climb the corporate Ladder fairly as they balance work and family?
“Personally, I don’t like quotas,” Reding said recently. “But I like what the quotas do.” Quotas get action: they “open the way to equality and they break through the glass ceiling(女性在工作中遇到的一种无形障碍),” according to Reding, a result seen in France and other countries with legally binding provisions on placing women in top business positions.
I understand Reding’s reluctance---and her frustration. I don’t like quotas either; they conflict with my belief in meritocracy(精英管理), government by the capable. But, when one considers the obstacles to achieving the meritocratic ideal, it does look as if a fairer world must be temporarily ordered.
After all, four decades of evidence has now shown that corporations in Europe as the US are evading the meritocratic hiring and promotion of women to top position---no matter how much “soft pressure” is put upon them. When women do break through to the summit of corporate power---as, for example, Sheryl Sandberg recently did at Facebook---they attract massive attention precisely because they remain the exception to the rule.
If appropriate pubic policies were in place to help all women---whether CEOs or their children’s caregivers---and all families, Sandberg would be no more newsworthy than any other highly capable person living in a more just society.
53. In the European corporate workplace, generally __________.
A. women take the lead
B. men have the final say
C. corporate governance is overwhelmed
D. senior management is family-friendly
54. According to Reding, quotas may help women __________.
A. get top business positions
B. see through the glass ceiling
C. balance work and family
D. anticipate legal results
55. The author’s attitude toward Reding’s appeal is __________.
A. skeptical B. objective C. indifferent D. approving
56. Women entering top management become headlines due to the lack of __________.
A. more social justice
B. massive media attention
C. suitable public policies
D. greater “soft pressure”
