Beauty has always been regarded as something praiseworthy. Almost everyone thinks attractive people are happier and healthier,have better marriages and have more respectable occupations. Personal consultants give them better advice for finding jobs. Even judges are softer on attractive defendants(被告).But in the executive 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 thought as having more integrity than plainer men;effort and ability were thought to account for their success.

Attractive female executives were considered to have less integrity than unattractive ones;their success was attributed not to ability but to factors such as luck.

All unattractive women executives were thought to have more integrity and to be more capable than the attractive female executives. Interestingly, though, the rise of the unattractive overnight successes was attributed more to personal relationships and less to ability than that of attractive overnight successes.

Why are attractive women not thought to be able? An attractive woman is thought to be more feminine and an attractive man more masculine(有男子气;)既的)than the less attractive ones. Thus,an attractive woman has an advantage in traditionally female jobs,but an attractive woman in a traditionally masculine position appears to lack the "masculine" 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 utterly defeated unattractive men, but the women who had been ranked most attractive invariably received the fewest votes.

Forty years 18    ,when I was a little boy,Nana had always cut the meat into small pieces so I could eat it.

Is early childhood education really necessary? Early childhood education primarily focuses on learning through playing to develop the child's physical, sensory, communicational and social development. Early childhood education has become a concern of the government,who pushes poor children to be formally trained before they are old enough for kindergarten.

There are good reasons for the government to push early childhood education. Studies have shown that orphaned children who did not receive good care and education become developmentally delayed

causing failure in school, and even in life. Further studies show that poor children who take part in Head Start programs are more prepared for school,less likely to end up in Special Education classes, and are less likely to receive public help or go to jail.

There are also negative parts to putting a child in formal education programs too early. Time Magazine online explains that "the younger the child,the Jess his chances of catching up with first-grade work". I have personally witnessed many children of my generation who went to Head Start programs become frustrated and bored with school before they finished high school. Yet parents have been sure that the earlier the child starts school,the better off he or she is,so they push to start children earlier.

Actually while early formal education of poor children does show great gains in the early ele?mentary years, studies also show that this head start is really a "false start",as the gains are lost in middle and high school years. It seems that environment is a bigger factor on life, s success than early education. Head Start programs have not achieved its original goal in closing the achievement gap in poor and middle school children. Perhaps it is time to find other ways to close that gap.

(   ) 8. The purpose of the government valuing the early childhood education is     .

     A.  to develop the children' s communication skills

    B.  to give orphaned children good care and education

    C.  to get the children prepared for the kindergarten

    D.  to train the children formally and regularly

(   ) 9. According to the studies, which of the following is true?

     A.   Children with good early education may have a rich life.

    B.   The orphaned children are usually unhappy in their life.

    C.   Children without early education can do well at school.

    D.   Head Start programs are helpful to the poor children.

(   ) 10. 'The younger the child, the less his chances of catching up with first-grade work." suggests that .

     A.  the early childhood education is helpless to the child' s grade

    B.  it is good for the young children to receive early education

    C.  the early education can help the children improve the grade

    D.  the younger the children are,the more clever they will be

(   ) 11. The author,s attitude toward the early childhood education is         .

A. puzzling    B. objective    C. indifferent    D. approving

(   ) 12. The main idea of the last paragraph is that        .

     A .   the early childhood education is very necessary

    B.   Head Start programs have helped the children a lot

    C.   environment is the most important factor to life' s success

    D.   better ways should be found to help the poor children
