阅读下面短文，按照句子结构的语法性和上下文连贯的要求，在空格处填入一个适当的词或使用括号中词语的正确形式填空，并将答案填写在答题卡标号为31-40的相应位置上。

Beauty has always been regarded as something praiseworthy. Almost everyone thinks attractive people are happier and have more respectable jobs. But in the executive(主管的) circle,   31   can become a disadvantage.

While attractiveness is a positive factor for a man on his way up the executive ladder, it is   32 

(harm) to a woman. Handsome male executives are considered having more honesty than plainer men; effort and ability usually lead  33  their success. Attractive female executives are considered to have less honesty than unattractive  34  ；people do not connect their success with ability   35  with factors such as luck. All unattractive women executives are thought to have more honesty and to be more capable than the attractive female executives. However, interestingly, the rise of the unattractive overnight successes  36  (connect) more to personal relationships and less to ability.

Attractive women are not thought to be able. This is true even in politics. Anne Bowman, a writer,

  37  recently made a study, asked 125 undergraduate students to rank two groups of photographs, one of men and one of women, in order of attractiveness. And then 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  38  them. The results showed that attractive males  39  (complete) defeated unattractive men, but the women   40  (rank) most attractive by the students unchangeably received the fewest votes.

Ⅳ. 阅读理解（共20题；每小题2分，满分40分）

第一节 阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给A, B, C和 D项中，选出最佳选项。

In an age when technology moves faster than most can keep up with, a small group of people still remain in the time of old-fashioned letters. Frankly speaking, I was once certain that traditional letters could never be replaced by other means of communication.

But a story about online communication changed my mind.

An old man, who suffered a lot from Parkinson's disease, was not able to talk clearly and could hardly write his name. Living totally alone, he managed to keep in touch with nearly all the members of his family. How did he achieve this? He clicked out words on his computer keyboard.

I, therefore, managed to get an e-mail box as soon as the opportunity came. My life changed. E-mail, and all online communication, is something truly different. It has capabilities that few other products can match.

E-mail is convenient. It takes less time with its fast speed and 24-hour connection. The slow postal service is no match. If you wouldn't want to have a face-to-face talk with your manager, you might talk with him through e-mail even if you are in the same office.

Naming all the good things about online communication is not easy. But wait. E-mail can be inconvenient. It can waste time and energy. Just think what may happen when you take a short vacation and return to find your e-mail box filled with 200 unread messages. You could clearly spend half a day clearing junk ads.

Then, online communication will keep us staying at our computer while it connects us to distant strangers. Once we throw ourselves into the machine, we may forget the human touches we once held so dear. I'm sure there's and always will be a place for the old-fashioned letter, phone call, and face-to-face meeting even in the world of modem communication.

As I listen to the sound of the modem, I was excited at stepping out to the outside world but, at the same time, I sensed a loss of control over something valuable in my personal life.

41. What caused the writer to become interested in e-mail and online communication?

A. The sound of the modem.        B. His own illness.

C. The changing of his life.         D. A sick old man's experience.

42. What is the most probable meaning of the underlined word "junk" in Paragraph 7?

A. Old and useless.                  B. New and useful.

C. Short but valuable.                D. Long but clear.

43. What does the writer think of online communication?

A. It should replace old-fashioned letters completely.

B. It is perfectly and always does good to you.

C. It is extremely useful and convenient, but it may be inconvenient or even harmful.

D. It does more harm than good.

44. How did the sick old man keep in touch with his family members?

A. With the help of his computer.

B. By writing letters with his pen.

C. By making telephones calls.

D. By visiting them regularly.

45. According to the writer, traditional means of communication will never disappear because     .

A. they are convenient and popular though they are slow

B. they help to keep the friendly relationship between people

C. most people cannot keep up with the development of technology

D. modem means of communication does too much harm
