     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(有男子气概的)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.
1.The underlined word "liability"(in Para.1)most probably means "________".
A.misfortune  
B.instability
C.disadvantage  
D.burden
2.In traditionally female jobs,attractiveness________.
A.reinforces(加强)the feminine qualities required
B.makes women look more honest and capable
C.is of primary importance to women
D.often enables women to succeed quickly
3.Bowman"s experiment reveals that when it comes to politics,attractiveness________.
A.turns out to be an obstacle to men
B.affects men and women alike
C.has as little effect on men as on women
D.is more of an obstacle than a benefit to women
4.It can be inferred from the passage that people"s views on beauty are often________.
A.practical  
B.prejudiced
C.oldfashioned  
D.pessimistic
5.The author writes this passage to________.

     You"ve probably heard that you"re not supposed to pour old medications down the toilet
or drain(排水沟). That"s because drugs can get into the water supply and cause problems
for people as well as wildlife.
     But you can"t just throw medicines or unused prescriptions in the trash either. You don"t
want medications-and your private health information-to fall into the wrong hands.
     Destroying old medications and then putting them in the trash is the way to go. Here"s how:
     Dump the medicine out of its container into a plastic bag. You don"t want to throw away
medications in their containers because there is a risk that people looking for drugs, as well
as kids or pets, might find them. You can mix different kinds of medicines in the same bag.
Just be sure to use a plastic bag that can be tightly sealed. And then seal up the bag and
throw it away in the regular trash.
     Destroy the medications. Add a small amount of water to the bag to dissolve(溶解) the
medications. Then, add something that is not food, like dirt. That way, if the medication mix
falls into the hands of children, they won"t be able to eat it.
     After you"ve dealt with the medication following the instructions above, throw the medicine
container in the trash. But before you do that, get rid of the label and destroy it. This helps
you protect your medical information and keep it private. You don"t want your name, address,
and other personal information showing up next to the name of the drug you are taking. If you
can"t remove the label, take a marker and black out(用墨等涂掉) any personal information.
     A few prescription medications need to be dealt with immediately after they are no longer
needed. These should still be washed away down the toilet. If your prescription is one of these,
the label on the container should say so.

     The karaoke machine is the most annoying invention in Britain,a survey (民意调查) for the
government found.It found that the Japanese invention topped a list of inventions that people
wished had never been invented.
     2,584 adults were surveyed in England online.Among them,22 percent chose the karaoke
machine.17 percent said 24-hour sports channels,12 percent chose video games,while 11
percent said mobile phones and seven percent said alarm clocks."Seeing the karaoke machine
at the top of that list made me smile," said Kane Kramer,a director at the British Inventors
Society.
      "When people are singing karaoke,they are enjoying themselves,but as a member of the
audience you are just watching somebody who can"t perform for as long as you can bear it.
It is antisocial (令人讨厌的).You might have 10 people who want to sing some karaoke,
which means 150 people have to suffer it.But the crazy thing is that people still do go just to
be a listener at other people"s inability to sing.After a short while-unless they"re very drunk
they"re going to find that listening to performers failing to perform for two hours is not the best
way to spend the evening."
      Karaoke has turned into a very large industry since being invented in 1971 by Daisuke
Inoue,a worker in a club in Japan who was looking to provide music for a customer who
wanted to sing on a company trip.
Asked what people would like to see invented in the future,18 percent said a robot cleaner
and 16 percent said a time machine.Asked what the most important safety inventions were,
