2、 air, leaving generations puzzled as to how these precise works could have been completed long before the documented invention of human flight.

A 2018 statistic
17、 shows that women nowadays hold just 5.8 percent of CEOs positions at S&P 500 companies, according to Catalyst. While its not a huge shock that women are somewhat underrepresented in leadership positions, what is surprising though, is the fact that females may actually be better suited to lead in al
18、most every area, at least according to new findings from the BI Norwegian Business School. In their research, Professor Martinsen and Professor Lars Glas surveyed (调查) 2,900 managers with a special focus on personality types. The results were clear: Women scored higher than men in four of the five m
19、ajor leadership-centric categories. While some people believe that men inherently make better leaders probably because they picture a leader with a commanding voice, which is more typical of men than women this piece of research suggests that women are better at methodical management and goal-settin
20、g, openness, sociability and supportiveness, as well as ability to communicate clearly. There was one area in which men scored higher than women, though, and that was on emotional stability and ability to face job-related pressure and stress. The results suggest that women are more sensitive to the
21、effects of high-pressure or highly emotional situations. Obviously, its important to consider individual(个人的) differences.

Modern businesses have been following his lead, with more tactics(策略). One tactic involves where to
25、display the goods. For example,stores place fruits and vegetables in the first section. They know that customers who buy the healthy food first will feel happy so that they will buy more junk food(垃圾食品)later in their trip. In department stores,the womens shoe section is generally next to the womens
26、cosmetics(化妆品)section: while the shop assistant is going back to find the right size shoe, bored customers are likely to wander over and find some cosmetics they might want to try later. Besides, businesses seek to appeal to customers senses. Stores notice that the smell of baked goods encourages sh
27、opping, so they make their own bread each morning and then fan the bread smell into the store throughout the day. Music sells goods, too. Researchers in Britain found that when French music was played, sales of French wines went up. When it comes to the selling of houses, businesses also use highly
28、rewarding tactics. They find that customers make decisions in the first few seconds upon walking in the door, and turn it into a business opportunity. A California builder designed the structure of its houses smartly. When entering the house, the customer would see the Pacific Ocean through the wind
29、ows, and then the pool through an open stairway leading to the lower level. The instant view of water on both levels helped sell these $10 million houses.1.Why do stores usually display fruits and vegetables in the first section?A.To save customers time.B.To show they are high quality foods.C.To hel
