35岁的约会和交配

合并、收购,收购……词汇作为准妻子的业务关系的方法,报告保罗。哈理斯在纽约和伦敦大卫·史密斯

准备高跟鞋点击,名牌手袋,女人故意走进教室。他们是纽约的不同截面的富裕的上东区的各位,迷人的金发女郎,她穿着紧身裙的女人在她的六十年代接近前面的座位。都是由一件事:

他们来这里是为了找到一个丈夫。而且他们相信瑞秋格林沃尔德能够帮助他们。

格林沃尔德是最热门的事情打击美国的约会因为欲望都市。她是一个漂亮的毕业于哈佛商学院精英认为,无情的商业规则可以应用于寻找一个伴侣。去玫瑰,巧克力和眼睛会议在一个拥挤的房间。在“品牌”和“营销”。浪漫也许不是死在这个房间,但似乎肯定了公司。

格林沃尔德是促进她的书,找到一个丈夫35岁后使用我哈佛商学院学到的东西。承诺“教你一个简单的证明15-step程序找到一个好丈夫的,这本书上周喧嚣畅销书排行榜上,和格林沃尔德甚至出售电影版权。现在她的脱口秀主持人。

她将抵达英国时,英国1月版出版。奇怪的是,其标题将被四舍五入五年成为计划:如何找到一个丈夫三十岁之后。塔拉·劳伦斯,时代华纳图书的英国版的编辑,解释说:“我们去30,因为这里的人更有共鸣。在美国他们不打扰大30岁生日聚会,但在英国时代的影响,尤其是对女性。

她说这本书是有别于自助指南,近年来淹没了货架。”瑞秋格林沃尔德有直接和大胆的方式与读者交谈,平衡与幽默。这绝对是实用如何创造机会做一些关于单身。”

政府预测显示一半的英国女性年龄在30岁至44岁不会已经结婚2021年,相比1981年的13%。

那些困扰,不妨留意格林沃尔德的消息,撒切尔夫人对市场原则的关键是寻找一个丈夫。15个步骤包括建议女性可以“包装”自己是一个理想的产品和寻找一个合适的“买家”。也有部分“游击营销”,招聘一个助理提供支持。

格林沃尔德的策略包括电话销售或响着你通讯录中的每一个人问他们知道任何潜在的合作伙伴。她还主张“审计”,进行离职面谈,让第三方联系不成功的日期反馈。她坚持认为,大约70%的人,如果你问他,会坦诚。

格林沃尔德,一个已婚的女人和她的三个孩子住在科罗拉多,认为:“如果你正在寻找一份工作,你会投入大量的时间和精力在找到正确的一个。如果你想减肥,你会遵守必要的牺牲和规则。程序就像一个组合的求职和严格的饮食:有承诺,牺牲和规则。”

第92街区,纽约著名的演讲厅,接待了总统和皇室,格林沃尔德在满流。《观察家报》的记者,想悄悄地坐在后面,这是一个令人不安的经历。这些妇女要获得一个三小时的课如何花自己一个任务:捕捉一个丈夫。即使在美国,约会是一个全国性的运动,格林沃尔德是残酷的前期和诚实。她承诺一个伴侣在一年到18个月。它所需要的是铁的纪律,将携带出来。

这些数字她引用告诉一个可怕的故事。今天在美国有1800万单身男人35岁以上,但2800万年龄段的单身女人。她迅速驱散最后从房间里挥之不去的浪漫的感觉。这本书不是童话。的意识到作为一个女人和单身,并自己动手了。”

她的书是写在风格和语言的无数美国书架管理指南,垃圾。她有意识地避免任何分析为什么人们可能是单一的,专注于确保他们不依然如此。“不管你是单身的原因。关键的是你要做些什么,”她说。

她削减一个优雅的黑色裤子和一个时髦的夹克。她看起来每一寸的严重和成功的女商人。她承认,她的讲座结束后,只有约一半的在场通常认为他们可以提交程序。“你愿意非法或不道德的事情吗?”她问道。观众神经兮兮地笑着。格林沃尔德只是在开玩笑。有一些策略,会使你感到不舒服,”她补充道。

第一个大的气息当她谈到花钱。很多钱。它花费的钱找到一个丈夫,”她说。格林沃尔德说,

这些方法必须创建一个单独的后找到一个丈夫的银行账户。她建议将10%,甚至20%的总收入。这将购买新衣服,礼物,发型,一个计算机网络约会……名单是无止境的。在这一点上,许多观众似乎掌握格林沃尔德要求多大的承诺。突然一个50%辍学率会后看起来合适。

营销是程序的第一步。这涉及到最大化满足男人任何机会。这意味着取消订阅报纸,在公共场合你必须去阅读它们。这意味着永远呆在当你可以出去(这就是找到一个丈夫的预算将帮助)。这意味着加入夜校(注册用假蝇钓鱼,不是烹饪)。我不知道你的丈夫在哪里,但我知道他不在家,”格林沃尔德说。

格林沃尔德生气当她被指控做女人“绝望”寻找一个伴侣。她说,指的是沙文主义策略的方式。她是诚实和赋予妇女去得到他们想要的东西。在想要一个丈夫,没有错,因此没什么错将以最有效的方式。…我想根除“绝望”这个词从字典,”她说。

继续的步骤。第三步是找到一个“导师”,一位朋友将诚实的评价如何。第四步是关于改善包装。第五步是关于品牌。”一个女人没有一个品牌就像一双名牌牛仔裤没有标签,”格林沃尔德告诉她的听众。她谈到成功的品牌像可口可乐和联邦快递。

然后她问关于人类品牌有效。你认为当你听到这个词特蕾莎修女吗?“圣洁”,来几个回答前一个女人管道:“她是单身。”

有一阵笑声。只有在这个房间里可以特蕾莎修女的品牌被视为单身,”格林沃尔德说。

休息后,继续的步骤,包括进展的季度回顾在前面三个月。找到一个丈夫吗?不,然后改变策略,提高你的表现。

格林沃尔德遇见自己的丈夫时,她是28岁,但是她说她已经使用这个程序找到一个伴侣。“我是早熟的。我知道我不想成为单一的35岁后,所以我提前计划,”她说。她专注于品牌,发现一位导师,最大化任何机会见到的异性。她发现布拉德在波士顿的一个“项目方”,她组织了,问她所有受邀者把未婚的朋友。几年后他们结婚了。

讲座结束和女性消失回到曼哈顿的夜晚,他们认为他们需要离开的知识。他们肯定离开的梦——某个地方——另一个布拉德是等待。他们只需要开发一个业务策略来找到他。

美英报刊阅读教程Lesson 34 课文

Lesson 34 Out of the Blue On a picture-perfect Texas morning, the shuttle Columbia was heading home when tragedy struck, leaving America and the world wondering what went wrong-and honoring the lives of seven brave astronauts. By Evan Thomas 1) Tony Beasley, an astronomer at the California Institute of Technology, got up early, along with his wife and mother-in-law, to watch the space shuttle fly overhead. It was a little after 5:45 a.m., California time, 7:45 a.m. at Mission Control1 in Houston, 8:45 a.m. at Cape Canaveral in Florida. Beasley could see the bright glow of the shuttle as it came over California’s Owens Valley, bound for a Florida landing, still 60 miles high, traveling at about 20 times the speed of sound. Then he noticed some bright flashes, just small ones at first. Beasley idly wondered if the shuttle was shedding some debris as it entered the atmosphere. He didn’t make much of it;2 he thought he recalled that space shuttles sometimes lost a few tiles as the craft burned into the atmospnere. But then he noticed a large pulse of light. “It was like a big flare being dropped from the shuttle,” he told Newsweek. “It didn’t seem normal.” 2) A few minutes later, a few hundred miles to the east in Red Oak, Texas, Trudy Orton heard a boom as she stood on her front porch in the brightening morning. She thought it was a natural-gas explosion. “My house shook and windows rattled.” Her dog ran into the house and hid. A neighbor, loading her car, looked up and asked, “What on earth was that?” Orton lo oked up and saw a white streak of smoke across the sky. “It wasn’t a sleek little straight line like the jets make. It was billowing like a puffy cloud.” 3) At the Kennedy Space Center at 9 a.m., ET, the festive crowd-NASA officials, family members of the astronauts, local dignitaries and politicians, even a representative of the Israeli government, on hand to honor Israel’ s first astronaut, Col. Ilan Ramon-eagerly listened for the familiar sonic boom, heralding the arrival of the returning shuttle. But as the skies remained silent, the burble of chatter died down, then grew anxious. At about 9:05, mobile phones began to ring. Suddenly, officials were herding family members into buses. The countdown clock continued to wind down to the scheduled 9:16 landing. But the crowd was already gone. 4) The specialists inside Mission Control were well aware that the complex machines they put into space and then hope to bring home again are potential deathtraps. The rest of us forget, until a tragedy occurs, and the nation and the world are left mourning the loss of the astonishing array of hope and talent that routinely fly aboard the shuttles-113 trips, so far. When the shuttle Columbia disintegrated over Texas last Saturday morning, it took with it an Air Force colonel and test pilot3 (whose last job had been chief of safety for the astronaut office); a former Eagle Scout fighter jock4 (second in his class at Annapolis); a veteran African-American astronaut making his second trip into space; an India-born woman with a Ph.D. who enjoyed flying aerobatics5; a medical doctor who had performed in the circus as an acrobat; another medical doctor who was a mother, and an Israeli Air Force hero who had bombed Iraq’ s Osirak nuclear reactor in 1981. 5) The seven crew members of the Columbia were finishing a 16-day mission that had gone off without a hitch6, hi between conducting dozens of scientific experiments, there had been plenty of time for stargazing. Astronaut Kalpana Chawla had told reporters how much, on a prior shuttle mission, she had enjoyed “watching the continents go by, the thunderstorms shimmering in the

美英报刊阅读教程Lesson 1 课文

【Lesson 1 Good News about Racial Progress The remaining divisions in American society should not blind us to a half-century of dramatic change By Abigail and Stephan Thernstrom In the Perrywood community of Upper Marlboro, Md.1, near Washington, D.C., homes cost between $160,000 and $400,000. The lawns are green and the amenities appealing—including a basketball court. Low-income teen-agers from Washington started coming there. The teens were black, and they were not welcomed. The homeowners? association hired off-duty police as security, and they would ask the ballplayers whether they “belonged” in the area. The association? s newsletter noted the “eyesore” at the basketball court. But the story has a surprising twist: many of the homeowners were black t oo. “We started having problems with the young men, and unfortunately they are our people,” one resident told a re porter from the Washington Post. “But what can you do?” The homeowners didn?t care about the race of the basketball players. They were outsiders—in truders. As another resident remarked, “People who don?t live here might not care about things the way we do. Seeing all the new houses going up, someone might be tempted.” It?s a t elling story. Lots of Americans think that almost all blacks live in inner cities. Not true. Today many blacks own homes in suburban neighborhoods—not just around Washington, but outside Atlanta, Denver and other cities as well. That?s not the only common misconception Americans have ab out race. For some of the misinformation, the media are to blame. A reporter in The Wall Street Journal, for instance, writes that the economic gap between whites and blacks has widened. He offers no evidence. The picture drawn of racial relations is even bleaker. In one poll, for instance, 85 percent of blacks, but only 34 percent of whites, agreed with the verdict in the O.J. Simpson murder trial. That racially divided response made headline news. Blacks and whites, media accounts would have us believe, are still separate and hostile. Division is a constant theme, racism another. To be sure, racism has not disappeared, and race relations could —and probably will —improve. But the serious inequality that remains is less a function of racism than of the racial gap in levels of educational attainment, single parenthood and crime. The bad news has been exaggerated, and the good news neglected. Consider these three trends: A black middle class has arrived. Andrew Young recalls the day he was mistaken for a valet at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York City. It was an infuriating case of mistaken identity for a man who was then U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. But it wasn?t so long ago that most blacks were servants—or their equivalent.

Unit2 Gender Issues Men turn to jobs women usually do 1.HOUSTON - Over the last decade, American men of all backgrounds have begun flocking to fields such as teaching, nursing and waiting tables that have long been the province of women. 2."The way I look at it is that anything, basically, that a woman can do, a guy can do," said Miguel Alquicira, who graduated from high school when construction and manufacturing jobs were scarce and became a dental assistant. 3.The trend began well before the crash,and appears to be driven by a variety of factors, including financial concerns, quality-of-life issues and a gradual erosion of g ender stereotypes. 4.In interviews, about two dozen men played down the economic considerations, saying that the stigma associated with choosing such jobs had faded, and that the jobs were appealing not just because they offered stable employment, but because they were more satisfying. 5."I.T. is just killing viruses and clearing paper jams all day," said Scott Kearney, 43, who tried information technology and other fields before becoming a nurse in the pediatric intensive care unit at Children's Memorial Hermann Hospital in Houston. 6.An analysis of United States census data by The New York Times shows that from 2000 to 2010, occupations that are more than 70 percent female accounted for almost a third of all job growth for men, double the share of the previous decade. 7.That does not mean that men are displacing women - those same jobs accounted for almost two-thirds of women's job growth. But in Texas, for example, the number of men who are registered nurses nearly doubled in that time period. 8.The shift includes low-wage jobs as well. Nationally, two-thirds more men were bank tellers, almost twice as many were receptionists and two-thirds more were waiting tables in 2010 than a decade earlier. 9.Even more striking is the type of men who are making the shift. From 1970 to 1990, according to a study by Mary Gatta, senior scholar at Wider Opportunities for Women, an organization based in Washington, D.C., and Patricia A. Roos, a sociologist at Rutgers University in New Jersey, men who took so-called pink-collar jobs tended to be foreign-born, non-English speakers with low education levels. 10.Now, though, the trend has spread among men of nearly all races and ages, more than a third of whom have a college degree. In fact, the shift is most pronounced among young, white, college-educated men like Charles Reed, a sixth-grade math teacher at Patrick Henry Middle School in Houston. 11.Mr. Reed, 25, intended to go to law school after a
