Today there are policemen everywhere, but in 1700, London had no policemen at all. A few old men used to protect the city streets at night and they were not paid.

About 300 years ago, London was starting to get bigger and more and more people began to live there. The city was very dirty and many people were poor. There were so many thieves who stole money in the streets that people stayed in their homes as much as possible.

In 1750, Henry Fielding started to pay a group of people to stop thieves. They were like policemen and were called "Bow Street Runners" because they worked near Bow Street.

Fifty years later, there were 120 "Bow Street Runners", but London had become very big and needed more policemen. So in 1829, the first Metropolitan (or London)Police Force was started with 3,000 officers. Most of the men worked on foot, but a few rode horses. Until 1920 all the police in London were men.

Today. the London police are quite well paid and for the few police officers who still ride horses, the pay is even better than for the others.

A． a few

B． nothing

C． a little

D． a lot

第4题：

Beauty has always been regarded as something praise worthy. Almost everyone thinks attractive people are happier and healthier, have better marriages and have more respectable occupations. Personal consultants give them better advice for finding jobs. Even judges are softer on attractive defendants (被告). But in the executive circle, beauty can become a liability.
While attractiveness is a positive factor for a man on his way up the executive ladder, it is harmful to a woman.
Handsome male executives were thought as having more integrity than plainer men; effort and ability were thought to account for their success.
Attractive female executives were considered to have less integrity than unattractive ones; their success was attributed not to ability but to factors such as luck.
All unattractive women executives were thought to have more integrity and to be more capable than the attractive female executives. Interestingly, though, the rise of the unattractive overnight successes was attributed more to personal relationships and less to ability than that of attractive overnight successes.
Why are attractive women not thought to be able? An attractive woman is thought to be more feminine and an attractive man more masculine (有男子气概的) than the less attractive ones. Thus, an attractive woman has an advantage in traditionally female jobs, but an attractive woman in a traditionally masculine position appears to lack the "masculine" 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. 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 utterly defeated unattractive men, but the women who had been ranked most attractive invariably received the fewest votes.
The author writes this passage to ____________.

A.give advice to job-seekers who are attractive
B.discuss the negative aspects of being attractive
C.demand equal rights for women
D.state the importance of appearance

答案：B
解析：
主旨题。本文虽然也提到了魅力有许多积极方面，但那并不是文章的主要方面。文章主要讲的是魅力给一些女性所造成的不利影响。由此可见，作者写这篇文章的目的是要讨论有魅力的消极方面。故选B。

It can be inferred from the passage that people′ s views on beauty are often ____________.

A.practical
B.supportive
C.old-fashioned
D.one-sided

答案：D
解析：
推断题。由文章第一段可知，几乎每个人都认为有魅力的人会更幸福、更健康。他们的婚姻更美满，并且拥有更令人尊敬的职业。在找工作方面，私人顾问会给他们更好的建议。甚至法官对于有魅力的被告都会手下留情。由此可推出，人们对美的看法往往是带有偏见的，是缺乏事实依据的。故选D，one-sided“有偏见的”。
