1、Questions are based on the following passage．
When young women were found to make only 82 percent of what their male peers do just one year
out of college, many were at a loss to explain it．
All the traditional reasons put forward to interpret the pay gap--that women fall behind when theyleave the workforce to raise kids, for example, or that they don't seek as many management rolesfailed to justify this one． These young women didn't have kids yet． And because they were just one yearremoved from their undergraduate degrees, few of these women yet had the chance to go after (muchless decline) leadership roles．
But there are other reasons why the pay gap remains so persistent． The first is that no matter howmany women may be getting college degrees, the university experience is still an unequal one． Thesecondis that our higher education system is not designed to focus on the economic consequences ofour students' years on campus．
Now that women are the majority of college students and surpass men in both the number ofundergraduate and advanced degrees awarded, one might think the college campus m a pretty equalplace． It is not． Studies show that while girls do better than boys in high school, they start to trail offduring t~eir college years． They enroll in different kinds of classes, tend to major in less rigorous (非常) subjects, and generally head off with less ambitious plans．
．
As a result, it's not surprising that even the best educated young women enter the workplace with aslight disadvantage． Their college experience leaves them somewhat confused, still stumbling(栽倒) overthe dilemmas their grandmothers' generation sought to destroy． Are they supposed to be pretty or smart?Strong or sexy (性感的)? All their lives, today's young women have been pushed to embrace bothperfection and passionto pursue science and sports, math and theater--and do it all as well as theypossibly can No wonder they are not negotiating for higher salaries as soon as they get out of s~hool．They are too exhausted, and too scared of failing．
Traditionally, it is believed that women earn less than men because
A． they have failed to take as many rigorous courses
B． they do not feel as fit for management roles
