are extremely 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 in pursuing
executive business positions.
Industry experts have pointed out several blocks to
women's progress up the corporate these

2、Amongst the most popular books being written
today are those which are usually classified as science
ds of titles are published every year and
are read by all kinds of rmore,some of the
most successful films of recent years have been based
on science fiction stories.
It is often thought that science fiction is a fairly new
development in literature,but its ancestors can be found
in books written hundreds of years books
were often concerned with the presentation of some
form of ideal society,a theme which is still often found
in modern stories.
Most of the classics of science fiction,however,have
been written within the last hundred by
writers such as Jules Verne and H.G Wells,to mention
just two well-known authors,have been translated into
many languages.
Modern science fiction writers don't write about men
from Mars or space adventure are more
interested in predicting the results of technical
developments on society and the human mind;or in
imagining future worlds which are a reflection of the
world which we live in e of this their
writing has obvious political undertones.
In an age where science fact frequently overtakes
science fiction,the writers may find it difficult to keep
ahead of scientific who are sufficiently
clear-sighted to see the way we are going,however,may
provide a valuable lesson on how to deal with the
problems which society will inevitably confront as it
tries to master its new technology.

the writer often does not know who will
read what he writes,he must attempt to be as clear as

so that it is eventually organized into some sort of
logical sequence of events or we
