[单项选择]A couple of years ago a group of management scholars from Yale and the University of Pittsburgh tried to discover if there was a link between a company’s success and the personality of its boss. To work out what that personality was, they asked senior managers to score their bosses for such traits as an ability to communicate an exciting vision of the future or to stand as a good model for others to follow. When the data were analyzed, the researchers found no evidence of a connection between how well a firm was doing and what its boss was like. As far as they could tell, a company could not be judged by its chief executive any better than a book could be judged by its cover.

Seven years ago, a group of female scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology produced a piece of research showing that senior women professors in the institute’s school of science had lower salaries and received fewer resources for research than their male counterparts did. Discrimination against female scientists has cropped up elsewhere. One study conducted in Sweden, of all places--showed that female medical-research scientists had to be twice as good as men to win research grants. These pieces of work, though, were relatively small-scale. Now, a much larger study has found that discrimination plays a role in the pay gap between male and female scientists at British universities.

Years ago there was a group of kids who would hang around at some local ponds in the woods near their houses in Warwick, Rhode Island. In summer they caught frogs and fish. When winter arrived they couldn’t wait to go skating. Time passed, and the ponds became the only open space for the kids to enjoy themselves in that neighborhood.

Passage Four
About one million years ago, the Ice
Age began. The Ice Age was a long period of time in which four great glaciers
pushed southward to cover almost all the upper half of North America, and then
melted away. Each glacier was a thick sheet of ice and snow that spread out from
a centre near what is now Hudson Bay in Canada. The winters were long, and the
cool summers were too short to melt much of the ice and snow. The ever-growing
sheet built up to a thickness of two miles at its centre. As all
glaciers do, these great glaciers slid. They pushed down giant trees in their
paths and scraped the earth bare of soil. Many animals moved farther south to
escape. Others stayed and were destroyed. When winters of little
snow came, the summer sun cut into the edges of the ice sheets. As the glaciers
melted, rocks, soil and other things A. glaciers are destructive B. all glaciers in the world move southward C. the Mississippi-Missouri-Ohio system is larger than it was before the Ice Age D. the Great Lakes are now smaller than they were before the Ice Age
