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.

In ancient times the most important examinations were spoken, not written. In the schools of ancient Greece and Rome, testing usually consisted    31    saying poetry aloud or giving speeches.

In the European universities of the Middle Ages, students    32    (work) for advanced degrees had to discuss questions in their field of study with people who had made a special study of the subject.

Generally,   33   , modern examinations are written. The written examination,

   34    all students are tested on the same questions, was    35   (probable) not known until the nineteenth century. Perhaps it came into existence with the great increase    36    population and the development of modern industry. A room full of candidates for a state examination,    37    (time) exactly by electric clocks and carefully watched over by managers, appears like a group of workers at an automobile factory. Certainly, during examinations teachers and students    38    (expect) to act like machines.

One type of test is sometimes called as “objective” test.    39   is intended to deal with facts, not personal opinions. To make up    40    objective test the teacher writes a series of questions, each of which has only one correct answer. Along with each question the teacher writes the correct answer and also three statements that look like answers to students who have not learned the material properly.
