There are some stock markets(股票市场) in large cities in many countries. Stock markets in Paris, London, Tokyo, Shanghai and New York are among the largest and most well-known. The stock market, also called stock exchange, is a place where people can buy or sell shares（股票） of a factory or a company. And each share means certain ownership of a factory or a company.
Different people go to stock markets. Some are rich, who want to get more money than they have. Others are not very rich, who buy stocks and try to become rich. Still others buy stocks as part of their plan to save money.
Of course, investing(投资) money in the stock market is not the safest way to make money. No one can tell exactly whether the shares will be doing well. The factory or company may do badly. Then the stocks will go down, and investors will lose money. The stock may go up or down for a number of untold reasons. Everyone wants the stock to go up, but sometimes even if a factory or a company does a good job, the stock may still go down.
No wonder going to the stock market is often compared to gambling(赌博). All are eager to make money by "gambling" in the stock market. Factories and companies that need money are pleased that so many people are willing to "gamble". Indeed, the stock market is an attractive(有吸引力的) part of the business world.
64. If you are investor, you ______ in the stock market.

As the first report of the accident came in, Burton was sitting in his office on the top floor of
7

He interviewed the first witness (证人) almost at once, making sure that everything was done that could be done to put him at his ease.However, the witness was obviously nervous and Burton took great pains to go over what he said thoroughly, choosing and checking each word carefully and taking the man's statement down himself.The witness had called the police and he' d waited until the ambulances began to arrive then when the first police car arrived on the scene he'd been asked to report to the station which was what he had done.
Burton explained that regrettably it would be necessary for him to go to court because of the serious nature of the disaster.More he could not say at present.He'd be thankful if the man could keep in touch with the police.When he had gone, Burton put his head in his hands and considered before asking for the next witness.The man couldn' t be regarded as a hundred percent witness because he had been behind a wall when the explosion occurred.But in spite of his nerves, Burton had the impression that he was dependable, not afraid of relating himself to it and a fairly exact observer.
Well there would be other descriptions and no doubt all these would be put into place and the whole picture would become clear.He raised his head and pressed the bell on his desk.
"Next witness please," he said.

Beauty has always been regarded as something praiseworthy.Almost everyone thinks attractive people are happier and healthier, have better marriages and have more respectable
8
jobs.Personal advisors give them better advice for finding jobs.Even judges are softer on attractive defendants.But in the executive (主管的) circle, beauty can become aliability.
While attractiveness is a positive(无可怀疑的) factor for a man on his way up the executive ladder, it is harmful to a woman.
Handsome male executives were considered as having more honesty than plainer men; effort and ability were thought to lead to their success.
Attractive female executives were considered to have less honesty than unattractive ones; their success was connected not with ability but with factors such as luck.
All unattractive women executives were thought to have more honesty and to be more capable than the attractive female executives.Interestingly, though, the rise of the unattractive overnight successes was connected more to personal relationships and less to ability than that of the attractive overnight successes.
Why are attractive women not thought to be able? An attractive woman is considered to be more feminine and an attractive man more manly than the less attractive ones.Thus, an attractive woman has an advantage in traditionally female jobs, but an attractive woman in a traditionally manly position appears to lack the "manly" qualities required.
This is true even in politics."When the only clue is how he or she looks, people treat men and women differently, " says Anne Bowman, who recently published a study on the effects of attractiveness on political candidates (候选人).She asked 125 undergraduate students to rank two groups of photographs, one of men and one of women, in order of attractiveness.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 for them.
The results showed that attractive males completely defeated unattractive men, but the women who had ranked most attractive unchangeably received the fewest votes.
74.The word "liability"most probably means _____.
A.disadvantage B.advantage(优势) C.misfortune D.trouble
75.In traditionally female jobs, attractiveness _____.
A.makes women look more honest and capable
B.strengthens the feminine qualities required
C.is of great importance to women
D.often enables women to succeed quickly
76.Bowman's experiment shows that when it comes to politics, attractiveness _____.
A.turns out to be a disadvantage to men
B.is more of a disadvantage than an advantage to women
C.affects men and women alike
D.has as little effect on men as on women
77.The author writes this passage to_____.
A.give advice to job-seekers who are attractive
B.discuss the disadvantages of being attractive
C.demand equal rights for women
9
D.state the importance of appearance

The Chinese soon attacked back.
On April 29, Chinese hackers invaded two US websites over the weekend, forcing the Department of Labour and the Department of Health and Human Services to shut down their sites for a short time.

The Computer Network and Information Security Management Office told web operators an average of 100 sites a day had seen "some more form of attack".
78.The best title of the passage is _____.
