2014高考英语阅读理解精英训练二轮精品题（38）及答案 阅读下列短文， 从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项， 并在答题上将该选项标号涂黑。 ACensus figures (调查数据) published last Friday indicate that the number of women in management jobs rose by 95% between 1980 and 1990. Most evidence shows that women are still in the lowest class of management and in the lowest-paying industries. I first noticed that girls were different from boys when I was about 4 years old.

Working with women has given me deep understanding I would never have gained in any other way. Women are working at a decided disadvantage in the business world created by men to make things comfortable for men.

If I may fall back on typically male sports terms, women have had to learn both the game and the game plan at the same time. At least in my own observation, women in business tend to be more honest than men. A direct question to a woman often results in a direct response. This quality makes it more difficult for women to “yes” an employer. It also makes women more trustworthy than the men who often can’t, or won’t, give a straight answer to a question. Women are also more open than men about their feelings, their ambitions, and everyday situations in the office. This makes them easier to be hurt than men. Traditionally, women in business have been more severely judged than men. They have had to be better in a job than a man to get ahead. 41．What is this passage mainly about? A．the unfair treatment the working women suffering in business B．the differences between working men and women C．the qualitie
