  QuesUons{下列各题}are based on the following paassage

  Being in charge has its benefits: More money, more control, more power.And apparently, more jobsatisfaction.

  Recently the Pew Research Center released data from a survey that found bosses are happier thanworkers in their jobs.69% of the people in management positions from the survey said they weresatisfied with their current positions, compared with just 48% of rank-and-file (普通的) workers.The manager respondents were also more likely than non-managers to say they consider theirwork a career rather than merely a job (78% vs.44%) and were much less likely to be looking for ajob than those who don't manage others (12% vs.23%).

  They're also more likely to be happy with their lives outside of work, to feel they're paid fairlyfor what they do, and to think having children hasn't been a hindrance to their advancement.

  While those numbers may not be surprising given the age, greater income and longer careers of thosetypically in management, the report did find that both managers and non-managers value the exactsame things (and in the exact same order) when considering a job Enjoyable work comes first,followed by job security and then the ability to take time off to care for family.Similarly lownumbers of participants cited a big salary (just 20% of bosses and 18% of workers.and opportunitiesfor advancement (25% vs.24%) as being important, despite presumably different access to each.Also surprising, says Rich Morin, senior editor of Pew's Social & Demographic Trends project, washow similar numbers of bosses and employees considered problems such as gender discrimination to bea social issue.62% of managers and 66% of workers agree that the country needs to make changes tosolve gender inequality (不平等)issues in the workplace."It wasn't a case of big bad bosses andexploited workers," Morin says."That was an optimistic finding.On these important issues, t.heythink alike."

  Perhaps most notable, meanwhile, is that despite the greater satisfaction and lower stress associated with being in charge, fewer people want to become managers than not.Just 39% of people responding to Pew's study said they would like such a position; 43% said they wouldn't.(Theremaining 18% included those who were already managers and a few who didn't answer).

  "Some people simply don't want the headaches that come with being a boss, and some simply don't wantthe long hours," Morin says, acknowledging the contradiction between that statement and Pew's findings.For many, it seems, the satisfaction that comes from greater control and more money simplydoesn't outweigh the potential perils (危险)of being the one in charge.

  62 What are ordinary workers more likely to do, according to Pew's survey?

  A.To view their work as acareer.B.To be satisfied with other aspects of life.

  C.To think the pay is less than it shouldbe.D.To consider children a motive to their advancement.

  65What can we learn about Pew's finding on gender inequality in the workplaee?

  B.Bosses and workers had been expected to differ in theirattitudes toward this issue.

  C.Bosses and workers had been expected to think alike on someunimportant issues.
