Questionsare based on the following passage.
Workers with skills in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) are among the mmost in demand and highest paid.They are seen as key drivers of problem-solving and economic growth, who will help shape the future.And most of them are men.Nadya Fouad, a professor of educational psychology at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, and her colleagues surveyed more than 5,000 women who had graduated from some of the top universities with engineering degrees over the past six decades.They found that 40 percent had either quit the field or never entered the profession in the first place.For more than two decades, women have accounted for about 20 percent of all engineering degrees.Yet fewer than 11 percent of all engineers are women.For the most part, Fouad found that what really pushed women out were uncivil workplace climates, the expectation to put in long hours of face time in the office, and the feeling that there was little opportunity to advance.Of the women who left the field less than five years ago, two-thirds pursued better opportunities in other fields——72 percent became either managers or executives.One-third said they stayed home with children because their companies didn"t settle work-life conflicts.
It is not about making the women more confident or anything.It"s really about the climate in the workplace, Fouad said.Even women who are staying consider leaving because they don"t have superior support.They don"t have training and development opportunities.And their colleagues are not civil to them, look down upon them, or talk behind their backs.The fmdings add weight and context to previous looks at why more women don"t go into or don"t stay in STEM fields.The previous studies tend
to explain that women aren"t "naturally" smart enough, and that these are careers for men.Furthermore, Fouad makes recommendations to create a good work environment.The problem should be recognized that women aren"t leaving just because they want to spend time with their children.They"re leaving because of the difficult workplace climate and lack of opportunity to advance.The company, starting from the managers, is supposed to invest in professional training which is beneficial to the women"s development and advance.
It is commonly believed that STEM workers__________. 查看材料

正确答案:B
科学、技术、工程和数学(STEM)领域的技术人员是社会最需要的,也是收入最高的?他们被视为解决问题和发展经济的主力军,帮助塑造着未来:并且他们中的大多数都是男性:蜜儿沃学的教育心理学教授,她和她的同事调查研究了在过去60年里5,000多位毕业于顶尖大学具有工程学位的女性:(62)他们发现,其中40%的女性要么退出了这个行业,要么最初就未进入这个行业.程学位的人中,女性约占20%,然而,只有不到11%的工程师是女性?(63)福阿德发现,大多数情况下,真正迫使女性退出这个行业的原因是不文明的Z-作氛围、能长时间在办公室办公的期望以及晋升的垫荟天渺小的感觉。在那些离开_Y-程行业不到5年的女性中,三分之二在其他行业寻求到了更好的机会——其中的管理人员;三分之一表示,她们和孩子们待在家里,因为她们的公司未能解决工作与生活的;中突这不是关于让女性更加自信或者别的什么问题。这确实是有关工作场所的氛围,福阿德这样说道。即使是留在这个行业的女性也在考虑离开,因为她们得不到上级的支持,她们没有培训和发展的机会她们的同事对她们并不友好,轻视她们,或者在背后议论她们,这些发现为先前关于为何更多的女性不踏入或者不留在科学、技术、工程或数学领域的研究增加了分量和背景一(64)先前的研究倾向于认为,女性“天生”不够聪明,而且这些是男性的职业。雨德提议创建一个良好的工作环境:人们应该认识到女性之所以离开这些行业不仅仅是因为她们想花时间和孩子们在一起。她们离开是因为艰难的工作氛围和缺乏晋升机会:(65)公司应该从经理开始做起,投资有益于女性发展和晋升的专业培训.
