Height 41 career success, says Timothy Judge, a University of
18、 Florida professor of management, who led the study. These findings are troubling since, with a few 42 , such as professional basketball, no one could argue that height is something essential required for job 43 , Judge points out. Judge analyzed results of four large-scale studies in the US and Bri

If you take this 44 the course of a 30-year career, were talking about literally hundreds of thousands of dollars of earnings 45 that a tall person enjoys, Judge said. Greater heig
20、ht boosted both subjective ratings of work performance-a supervisors 46 of how effective someone is- and 47 measures of performance-such as sales volume. Being tall may boost self-confidence, improving performance. Other people may also give higher 48 and greater respect to a tall person, giving the

24、udent loaded his class notes into a handheld e-mail device and tried to read them during an exam: a classmate turned him in. At the University of Nevada at Las Vegas (UNLV) students photographed test questions with their cellphone cameras and transmitted them to classmates. The university put in pla
25、ce a new examination-supervision system. If theyd spend as much time studying, theyd all be A students, says Ron Yasbin, dean of the College of Sciences of UNLV. With a variety of electronic devices, American students find it easier to cheat. And college officials find themselves in a new game of ca
26、t and mouse. They are trying to fight would-be cheats in the exam season by cutting off Internet access from laptops, demanding the surrender of cellphones before tests or simply requiring that exams be taken with pens and paper.
