I couldn’t stop crying. Months of late evenings and demanding travel had【C1】______my professional exterior. I tried to【C2】______my quarterly numbers while my colleagues squirmed (局促不安) in their seats, offered me a box of tissues, or just【C3】______. My boss【C4】______ended the meeting. My colleagues quickly【C5】______the room. I was left【C6】______in the conference room, crumpled tissues in hand. For women, crying in a professional【C7】______is often seen as the kiss of death: "Stop crying! Someone will see you." "Quick, run to the ladies’ room!"
These are just two【C8】______of similar warnings I’ve heard throughout my career. But it’s not just me. Female friends and colleagues have told me they too have been told to【C9】______the waterworks. It’s a familiar【C10】______for women who cry at work: Escape to bathroom. Grab toilet paper. Wipe eyes. Blow nose. Take deep breath and sashay back into the conference rooms, banquet halls, auditoriums and hallways. Act as if we really did just have to use the【C11】______.
If, however, we can’t make a pre-tears escape, we’re likely to【C12】______our tails between our legs: "I’m so sorry." "Don’t worry, that will never happen again." "You’re right, that was so unprofessional." Most of the women I spoke with about this【C13】______explain that to cry in front of colleagues, especially male peers or bosses,【C14】______as one of the most humiliating professional experiences.
But times and corporate culture are both changing. Could crying have a less negative feeling if leaders【C15】______it as natural?【C16】______gender, leaders need to be trained on how to【C17】______crying as another form of emotional expression. The【C18】______from the top needs to be that no one will lose credibility or be seen as less competent if they cry. Rather, they will be viewed as being【C19】______while helping to create an even more【C20】______workplace culture.
【C11】
选项
A、facilities
B、accessories
C、statistics
D、instruments
答案
A
解析
名词辨析题。根据句意,拿起卫生纸,擦眼睛,擤鼻涕,再深吸一口气,然后在会议室、宴会厅、礼堂和走廊里走走。就好像我们真的需要使用这些______一样。再根据前一句提到的会议室、宴会厅、礼堂和走廊,可推断出此处为“设施”。故A项为正确选项。
