2．In spite of sex discrimination of keeping women down，new research finds another aspect of women's characters：girls are more likely to talk about school successes than boys．
    Researchers from Hanover College and the University of Louisville came to this conclusion．After all，girls are usually taught to be modest，instead of bragging．
    Basically，girls share more because they believe that success in school is good and that they'll be socially rewarded for it．Girls think that talking about their academic successes will build friendships．Boys seem to share less，because on average，they think it's uncool to be good at school，and would prefer to become the class clown or something even if they really are smart．Because the trend starts as early as mid-childhood，there's a long time for these differences to affect motivation and actual school performance．
This trend continues all the way through college．Girls tend to be better at self-regulation than boys，which allows them to set academic goals，and achieve them．Girls find academic environments easier to control while boys'higher energy levels and impulsiveness（易冲动）cause behavioral problems possibly contributing to the lower grades．
    Some aspects of the gender schooling gap are troubling．Especially as success depends more on educational attainment and qualifications and less on physical strength，boys who can't or won't do schoolwork put themselves at a disadvantage for life．On the other hand，there are new problems for adult females，though，and normal pride in girls turns into arrogance（傲慢）and bossy behavior in adult women．If women seem less proud of their accomplishments than they were as girls，it might just be a reasonable response to standards in the workplace．Women get worse performance reviews than men，like that you're"bossy"if you're over confident etc．
    I would suggest that you channel your inner schoolgirl．In the workplace you can't stop obvious sex discrimination on your own，but you can learn to be proud of your accomplishments in a mature way．Whether others respond properly to that or not，you'll feel better about yourself at the end of the day．

11．What about the effect of long working hours on your weight？A new paper，written by Joelle Abramowitz，an economist，has some surprising results．She starts out by showing a simple graph：those who work longer are easy to be bigger．
That seems interesting，but is not as good as expected．After all，there may be other factors that mean that hardworking people tend to be overweight．So Ms Abramowitz uses regressions（回归），which allows her to control a variety of other factors，like income．Her results have a few surprises：those with a college degree are likely to be slimmer（苗条）．Rather depressingly，marriage results in women getting thinner，but men fatter．
She shows that for workers in"non-strenuous（不繁重的）"jobs，like secretarial work and accountancy，ten additional hours spent working per week are connected with an increase in body size index 0.4for women and 0.2for men．That translates，on average，into an increase of 2.5pounds and 1.4pounds respectively（各自地）．Unsurprisingly，for those whose jobs require a bit of physical effort，the effect no longer holds．
So why do long hours result in weight gain？Only 20% of American jobs are even mildly stressful，compared to 50% in 1960．In 1960，a tenth of the American workforce was involved in agriculture，but today it's more like 1%．More time at the desk means less movement．Busy people may have less time to prepare good meals，instead choosing a take-away．（ management consultants，in my experience at least，tend to be rather knowledgeable about fancy restaurants near them）．They exercise less．And workaholics sleep less：inadequate shut-eye is associated with weight gain．
Women gain more weight than men，Ms abramowitz reasons，because they tend to replace work for health-improving activities like exercise．However，men are prettysedentary，whether or not they work long hours．So maybe desk-jobbers should include a bit of physicality in the daily hard work．Standing up while working is one choice．
32．What can we know about Joelle Abramowitz's graph？D
A．The author thinks it's puzzling．
B．Many people don't think it's good．
C．It includes many factors on fatness
D．It shows people working long put on more weight．
33．What kind of people tends to put on weight according to the passage？C
A．People who feel depressed．
B．People who have college degrees．
C．People who work on secretarial work．
D．people who often eat in fancy restaurants
34．Compared to the past，A．
A．Americans are fatter because of lack of exercise
B．Americans are fatter because of improvement of life
C．Americans become fatter because of less stressful work

12．Tomorrow was his girlfriend's birthday and the young man was having a difficult time deciding on a present for her．She already had more clothes than she knew what to do with them，so he couldn't get any kind of apparel．She never ate sweets，so candy was out of the question．What then？He had a very special reason for wanting to impress her with just the right gift； tomorrow he was going to make an offer of marriage to her．He finally decided on perfume（香水）．All girls liked perfume．That raised another problem，however．What kind did she prefer？He couldn't ask her because that would ruin the surprise．
At last the young man hit upon a brilliant idea．That afternoon，pretending to take his girlfriend's fox terrier，little dog for a walk，the young man and the dog went directly to the perfume counter of the town's biggest department store．Good!There was a large array（长列）of perfume．He beckoned（招呼）a clerk，instructing her to open a large number of bottles and wave the stoppers under the dog's nose．Nestled in the young man's arms，the terrier began to be restless and bored as this seemingly pointless game went on．Then Fritz suddenly became frisky，wiggling in the young man's arms and barking excitedly，as the clerk waved one stopper under its nose．
"I'll take that one，"said the young man to the clerk．The price was high，but it was worth it，he thought．
"My favorite perfume!"said the delighted girl the next evening as she unwrapped the package．"How did you know？"she asked，dabbing some perfume behind each ear．
"Intuition（直觉），I guess．"Said the young man，deciding that it wasn't exactly wrong to tell a lie under the circumstances．One day，after they were married，he would admit that his intuition had really been a little dog named Fritz．
