问题根据以下材料，回答题 Beauty has always been regarded assomething praise worthy. Almost everyone thinks attractive people are happierand healthier, have better marriages and have more respectable occupations. Personal consultants give them better advicefor finding jobs. Even judges are softer on attractive defendants (被告). But in the executivecircle, beauty can become a liability. While attractiveness is a positive factorfor a man on his way up the executive ladder, it is harmful to a woman. Handsome male executives were thought as havingmore integrity than plainer men; effort and ability were thought to account fortheir success. Attractive female executives were consideredto have less integrity than unattractive ones; their success was attributed notto ability but to factors such as luck. All unattractive women executives werethought to have more integrity and to be more capable than the attractivefemale executives. Interestingly, though, the rise of the unattractiveovernight successes was attributed more to personal relationships and less toability than that of attractive overnight successes. Why are attractive women not thought to beable An attractive woman is thought to be more feminine and an attractive manmore masculine (有男子气概的) than the less attractive ones. Thus, an attractive woman has anadvantage in traditionally female jobs, but an attractive woman in a traditionallymasculine position appears to lack the "masculine" qualitiesrequired. This is true even in politics. When the only clue is how he or shelooks, people treat men and women differently,′ says Anne Bowman, who recently publisheda study on the effects of attractiveness on political candidates. She asked 125undergraduate students to rank two groups of photographs, one of men and one ofwomen, in order of attractiveness. The students were told the photographs wereof candidates for political offices. They were asked to rank them again, in theorder they would vote for them. The results showed that attractive malesutterly defeated unattractive men, but the women who had been ranked mostattractive invariably received the fewest votes.
