a minor argument about small differences. Women have succeeded in any job you care to come.

Yet men go on maintaining the fantasy that there are many jobs which women can?t do. Top-level political negotiations between countries, business and banking are almost entirely controlled by men，who jealously guard their so-called “right”. Even in otherwise enlightened places like Switzerland, women haven?t even been given the vote. This situation is certainly preposterous! The arguments that men put forward to exclude women from these fields are all too familiar. Women, they say, are unreliable and irrational. They depend too little on cool reasoning and too much on intuition and instinct to arrive at decisions. They are not even capable of thinking clearly. Yet when women prove their abilities, men refuse to acknowledge them their due. So much for a man?s ability to think clearly! 注意:此部分试题请在答题卡2上作答。 61.According to the passage, men______·
