单选题 A few common misconceptions. Beauty is only
skin-deep. One' s physical assets and liabilities don' t count all that much in
a managerial career. A woman should always try to look her best.
Over the last 30 years, social scientists have conducted more than 1,000
studies of how we react to beautiful and not- so-beautiful people. The virtually
unanimous conclusion: Looks do matter, more than most of us realize. The data
suggest, for example, the physically attractive individuals are more likely to
be treated well by their parents, sought out as friends, and pursued
romantically. With the possible exception of women seeking managerial jobs they
are also more likely to be hired, paid well, and promoted.
Un-American, you say, unfair and extremely unbelievable? Once again, the
scientists have caught us mouthing pieties (虔诚) while acting just the contrary.
Their typical experiment works something like this. They give each member of a
group--college students, perhaps, or teachers or corporate personnel managers a
piece of paper relating an individual' s accomplishments. Attached to the paper
is a photograph. While the papers all say exactly the same thing the pictures
are different. Some show a strikingly attractive person, some an average-looking
character, and some an unusually unattractive human being. Group members are
asked to rate the individual on certain attributes, anything from personal
warmth to the likelihood that he or she will be promoted.
Almost invariably, the better looking the person in the picture, the higher the
person is rated. In the phrase, borrowed from Sappho, that the social scientists
use to sum up the common perception, what is beautiful is good.
In business, however, good looks cut both ways for women, and deeper than for
men. A Utah State University professor, who is an authority on the subject,
explains: In terms of their careers, the impact of physical attractiveness on
males is only modest. But its potential impact on females can be tremendous,
making it easier, for example, for the more attractive to get jobs where they
are in the public eye. on another note, though, there is enough literature now
for us to conclude that attractive women who aspire (追求) to managerial positions
do not get on as well as who may be less attractive.

When something happens to shake our
culture—like the terrorist attacks—we pause, not merely from fear. A deeper
self-examination is going on all over the country. And love, family and faith
are emerging. Single people are flocking to dating services,
looking for committed relationships. Bridal retailers report a surge in sales.
Sales of old-fashioned board games have skyrocketed. The new
appreciation for time spent with those we love poses a great spiritual question
to materialistic yuppies and workaholic careerists, and that question is this:
"Was your life before September 11 really working for you?" To many, the answer
is no. We once heard of a CEO who spoke at his retirement dinner
to a group of your executives. He said, "I know you want my job, and I'll tell
you how to get it. Last week my daughter was married, and as she walked down the
aisle, I realized I did not know the name of her best friend, or the last book
she read, or her favorite color. That's the price I paid for this job. If you
want to pay that price, you can have it." People are figuring
out the price they have been paying for their lives, arid for many it's just too
damn We asked kids during December to name the very best gift
they could receive. Their answer took our breath away. The overwhelming choice
was "More time with my mom and dad." Evil is always angry and
hurtful. It always delights in the misery of others. This is the evil of
terrorism. September 11 did not teach us anything new about evil.
What did become apparent is the stunning variety and scope of human
goodness. Pick any story: the elderly woman who donated the money she had
planned to spend on a hearing aid; the sacrifice of Father Mychal Judge, who
died after giving last rites in the shower of dust and hones; the volunteers
from everywhere who responded to the needs of strangers as if the call came from
home. In thousands of stories we learn that the great human evil we witnessed
was met by a wave of heroism and kindness that dwarfed it. Such
goodness puts evil Into perspective. We see how the healing power of human
compassion far out- weighs the corrosive power of human evil. In the final
summing up, it is the good in us that defines this moment in our co1lective
history. There is a lot of talk about spirituality nowadays.
Often it means: "I am not part of any organized religion." We are telling people
to give that old-time religion another good look. The clergy of our country have
done a great thing for God and for America in the last months. In a thousand
places of worship, they welcome and counsel and comfort the bereaved and the
weary. We have to come home to faith. There is a teaching in the
Jewish faith that is also reflected in an African proverb: "Sticks in a bundle
are unbreakable, but sticks alone can be broken by a child." We need to be
bundled, and our bundles protect us best ff they are bigger than just our family
and small circle of friends. We need a place to go that is not home or work,
where we can be bundled together with other seekers in need of hope. The ways we
find God are al- most always the same as the ways we find each
other.
