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. 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 perceived 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 success was attributed more to personal relationships and less to ability than that of attractive overnight success.
Why are attractive women I not thought to be able? An attractive woman is perceived to be more feminine(女性的) and an attractive man more. masculine (男性的) 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.
In traditionally female jobs, attractiveness ______.
选项

B、makes women look more honest and capable
C、is of primary importance to woman
D、often enables women to succeed quickly

解析
文章第六段中说人们觉得有魅力的女人比不那么有魅力的女人要更有女人特质。因此,在传统上是女人所从事的工作中,有魅力的女人具有一定的优势,但在传统上男人多从事的工作中,有魅力的女人看起来缺乏所需的男性特质。由此可推断出,在传统上是女人所从事的工作中,魅力加强了所需的女人特质。
