听力原文:W: Dr. Carter's Office.
M: Yes, I'd like to make an appointment to see Dr. Carter, please.
W: Is this your first visit?
M: Yes, it is.
W: Okay. Could I have your name please?
M: Yes. My name is Ronald Schuller.
W: And may I ask who referred you to our office?
M: Uh, I drove past your office yesterday.
W: Okay. How about the day after tomorrow on Wednesday at 4:00 P. M. ?
M: Uh. Do you happen to have an opening in the morning? I usually pick up my kids from school around that time.
W: Okay. Urn... how about Tuesday at 8:00 A. M. or Thursday at 8:15 A.M.
M: Uh, do you have anything earlier, like 7:30?
W: No. I'm sorry.
M: Well, in that case, Thursday would be fine.
W: All right. And what's the nature of your visit?
M: Well, to tell you the truth, I fell from a ladder two days ago while painting my house, and I sprained my ankle when my foot landed in a paint can. I suffered a few scratches on my hands and knees, but I'm most concerned that the swelling in my ankle hasn't gone down yet.
W: Well, did you put ice on it immediately after this happened?
M: Well, yeah. I just filled the paint can with ice and...
W: And so after you removed the paint can... Sir, sir, Mr. Sehuller, are you still there?
M: Well, that's part of the problem. Uh, the paint can is still on my foot.
W: Look, Mr. Schuller. Please come in today. I don't think your case can wait.

The Europe Union is now considering legislation to compel corporate boards to maintain a certain proportion of women-up to 60 percent.This proposed mandate was born of frustration. Last year, Europe Commission Vice President Viviane Reding issued a call to voluntary action. Reading invited corporations to sign up for gender balance goal of 40 percent female board membership. But her appeal was considered a failure: only 24 companies took it up.
Do we need quotas to ensure that women can continue to climb the corporate Ladder fairy as they balance work and family?
“Personally, I don’t like quotas,” Reading said recently. “But i like what the quotas do.” Quotas get action: they “open the way to equality and they break through the glass ceiling,” according to Reading, a result seen in France and other countries with legally binding provisions on placing women in top business positions.
I understand Reading’s reluctance-and her frustration. I don’t like quotas either; they run counter to my belief in meritocracy, government by the capable. Bur, when one considers the obstacles to achieving the meritocratic ideal, it does look as if a fairer world must be temporarily ordered.
After all, four decades of evidence has now shown that corporations in Europe as the US are evading the meritocratic hiring and promotion of women to top position— no matter how much “soft pressure ” is put upon them. When women do break through to the summit of corporate power--as, for example, Sheryl Sandberg recently did at Facebook—they attract massive attention precisely because they remain the exception to the rule.
If appropriate pubic policies were in place to help all women---whether CEOs or their children’s caregivers--and all families, Sandberg would be no more newsworthy than any other highly capable person living in a more just society.
In the European corporate workplace, generally_____ .
A.women take the lead
B.men have the final say
C.corporate governance is overwhelmed
D.senior management is family-friendly
The European Union’s intended legislation is ________ .A.a reflection of gender balance
B.a reluctant choice
C.a response to Reading’s call
D.a voluntary action
According ti Reading, quotas may help women ______ .A.get top business positions
B.see through the glass ceiling
C.balance work and family
D.anticipate legal results
Women entering top management become headlines due to the lack of ______ .A.more social justice
B.massive media attention
C.suitable public policies
D.greater “soft pressure”
The author’s attitude toward Reading’s appeal is one of ________ .A.skepticism
B.objectiveness
C.indifference
D.approval
