At work, as in life, attractive women get a lot of good lucks. Studies have shown that they are more likely to be【C1】______than their plain-Jane colleagues because people tend to project【C2】______traits【C3】______them, such as a sensitive heart and a cool head, they may also be at a/an【C4】______in job interviews. But research suggests otherwise.
Brad Hanks at Georgia State University looked at what happens when job hunters include photos with their resume, as is the【C5】______in much of Europe and Asia. The pair sent made-up applications to over 2,500 real-life【C6】______. For each job, they sent two very similar resume, one with a photo, one without. Subjects had previously been graded for their attractiveness.
For men, the results were【C7】______expected. Hunks were more likely to be called for an interview if they included a photo. Ugly men were better off not including one. However, for women this was【C8】______. Attractive females were less likely to be offered an interview if they included a mugshot. When applying directly to a company (rather than through an agency) an attractive woman would need to send out 11 CVs on average【C9】______getting an interview; a/an【C10】______qualified plain one just seven.
At first, Mr. Hanks considered【C11】______he calls the "dumb-blonde hypothesis"—that people【C12】______beautiful women to be stupid.【C13】______, the photos had also been rated on how【C14】______people thought each subject looked; there was no【C15】______between perceived intellect and beauty.
So the cause of the discrimination must【C16】______elsewhere. Human resources departments tend to be【C17】______mostly by women. Indeed, in the Israeli study, 93% of those tasked with selecting whom to invite for an interview were female. The researchers’ unavoidable—and unpalatable—conclusion is that old-fashioned【C18】______led the women to discriminate【C19】______pretty candidates.
So should attractive women simply attach photos that make them look dowdy? No. Better, says Mr. Hanks, to discourage the practice of including a photo altogether. Companies might even consider the【C20】______model used in the Belgian public sector, where CVs do not even include the candidate’s name.
【C16】
选项
A、locate
B、rely
C、he
D、lay
答案
C
解析
从上一段中我们可以得出结论:美女在简历上附照片得到的面试机会反而少的原因并不是因为人们将一个人的外貌和智力相挂钩,因此这一段一上来第一句话就起到了一个承上启下的作用,表达的意思是“(美女受到)歧视一定另有原因”。四个选项都和“放置,地点”有一定的关系。[A]locate表示“某个物体坐落于,位于……位置”,作动词时往往用在被动语态中,sth.be located in….[B]rely往往和介词on搭配,基本不单独使用,表示“依靠,依赖”;[C]lie是不及物动词,且是一个多义词,除了表示“撒谎”之外,还可表示“平躺,位于”,且往往可以与cause一词进行搭配,the cause/reason lies(in)…,表示“原因在于……”;[D]lay作动词表示“放置”,及物动词。因此,本题的正确答案应该选[C]。
