问题     What do National Semiconductor, Maxwell House Coffee, Deloitte & Touche, and Hearst Magazines have in common? All these organizations are【47】by women. Moreover, according to a recent study by Catalyst, a national nonprofit organization【48】women in business, more than 80 percent of Fortune 500 companies have at least one woman on their boards of directors, up from 69 percent two years earlier. Despite all this, there is【49】that women are not commonly found at the executive level. No Fortune-500 company has a female CEO; women executives are【50】underrepresented in some industries, such as manufacturing, engineering, and financial services; and responses to the Catalyst survey show that six in ten women believe women suffer discrimination (歧视) in【51】executive business positions.
    Industry experts have pointed out several blocks to women’s【52】up the corporate ladder. Among these blocks are the prejudiced【53】of women that some men in managerial positions still bring to the recruiting process. In addition, because women are often【54】from the informal network outside the office--for example, by not being given season tickets to sporting events and by not being invited to play golf--they miss out on the opportunity to build relationships. Other blocks include difficulties in【55】career and family (women are still the primary caregivers in our society), lack of general management experience,【56】to travel, and unfriendly corporate cultures that drive women away before they are ready for executive positions.
