9、ality in the workplace has come, theres still a yawning gap between male and female leaders in the professional world. A 2018 statistic 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 un

10、derrepresented in leadership positions, what is surprising though, is the fact that females may actually be better suited to lead in almost 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

11、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 major leadership-centric categories. While some people believe that men inherently make better leaders probably because they picture a leader with a commanding voice,

12、 which is more typical of men than women this piece of research suggests that women are better at methodical management and goal-setting, 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 wa

13、s on emotional stability and ability to face job-related pressure and stress. The results suggest that women are more sensitive to the effects of high-pressure or highly emotional situations. Obviously, its important to consider individual(个人的) differences. Anyone, regardless of gender, may be an in

17、r head.A virtual(虚拟的)reality headset had transported her and her classmates to a farm 250 miles away and for them, the technology means field trips are no longer limited by a bus ride. On any given day, students nationwide walk through fields, dive into deep sea, and observe medical operations by us

18、ing such headset. Its another way to attract the iPhone generation of students and improve their understanding and their grades. Richard Lamb is a scientist working at Buffalo Science Lab. In the lab, the physical effects of virtual reality become clear as participants experience motion (运动) sicknes

19、s without moving. “Some of the research were doing has shown that what you experience in virtual reality has very similar responses that you would get if you were doing the actual activity, ” Lamb said. Its unknown how many classrooms have or will adopt the technology, but experts say its still rela

20、tively rare. While individual headsets that require a users phone can cost as little as $20 or $30, systems and software for classes will cost thousands of dollars. Early complaints about a lack of good software are fading as more companies enter the market, but the rules for use havent necessarily

21、caught up with the technology. In New York, virtual lab experiments dont count toward the states hands-on lab time requirements. Even so, the sciences are an area where virtual reality holds particular promise for classrooms. “The biggest impediment is going to be the quality of that experience, and

22、 that means how closely it mimics (模仿) the physical world, ” said David Evans, a scientist. “ Doing dangerous things and running into a lot more cases represent a huge learning opportunity.” Lamb agreed. “Too often in schools, when we do things in labs, you mix things together and you get this outco

23、me. And if you dont get that outcome, you did something wrong, but we dont have enough resources for you to redo it,” he said. “In virtual reality, all I do is on the computer. I dont have to actually use chemicals.”1.What does a virtual reality headset really help the students do?A.Take some exerci

26、s.C.This technology can enrich students learning experiences.D.This technology can produce a better result in real life.4、 No student of a foreign language needs to be told that grammar is complex. By changing the order of the words and by adding a range of auxiliary verbs (助动词) and suffixes (后缀), w

27、e can turn a statement into a question, state whether an action has taken place or is soon to take place, and perform many other word tricks to convey different meanings. However, the question which many language experts cant understand and explain iswho created grammar? Some recent languages evolve

28、d due to the Atlantic slave trade. Since the slaves didnt know each others languages, they developed a make-shift language called a pidgin. Pidgins are strings of words copied from the language of the landowners. They have little in the way of grammar, and speakers need to use too many words to make

29、 their meaning understood. Interestingly, however, all it takes for a pidgin to become a complex language is for a group of children to be exposed to it at the time when they learn their mother tongue. Slave children didnt simply copy the strings of words used by their elders. They adapted their wor

30、ds to create an expressive language. In this way complex grammar systems which come from pidgins were invented. Further evidence can be seen in studying sign languages for the deaf. Sign languages are not simply a group of gestures; they use the same grammatical machinery that is found in spoken lan

31、guages. The creation of one such language was documented quite recently in Nicaragua. Previously, although deaf children were taught speech and lip reading in the classrooms, in the playgrounds they began to invent their own sign system, using the gestures they used at home. It was basically a pidgi

32、n and there was no consistent grammar. However, a new system was born when children who joined the school later developed a quite different sign language. It was based on the signs of the older children, but it was shorter and easier to understand, and it had a large range of special use of grammar
