Ⅱ.理解
Onequarter of the US workforce could be doing their jobs at home if all those able to telecommute chose to do so，according to a study on Wednesday which said many still elect to work at the office.
All those people working from home could translate into annual gasoline savings of $3.9 billion，according to the National Technology Readiness Survey.
But the study also found that about 14 percent of the workforce has the option to telecommute but chooses not to.As the study’s principal researcher，Professor P．K. Kannan，put it：
That seems to suggest that even if employers were to say tomorrow that everybody had the option of telecommuting and that it would save a lot of gas，that’s not going to happen.
What’s going on？Some of it is obvious：people like to go to the office for social reasons，even if their work tasks don’t require it.And that’s not just to be around other people.Our social needs also include being seen，and making “right” impressions on bosses and colleagues.Our own research at Work Design Collaborative is completely consistent with that interpretation.
So how are we actually going to realize the energysaving opportunities that we’re missing？It seems to me there are two very basic actions called for.
First，organizations must make distributed work not only available but expected by more employees.Company policies and financial incentives can easily “push” workers into changing their patterns.Note that I am not advocating making everyone a fulltime telecommuter.But just getting half of the workforce to work from home or in a nearby facility two days a week would save 20% of the gasoline now being consumed by moving people from homes to offices.
Second，we also need some national public policy initiatives to encourage people to work from home.It’s time to realize just how critical telecommuting and distributed work are to our national security—on several levels.It’s about reducing our dependence on foreign sources of energy.It’s about business continuity in the face of natural disasters(Katrina，etc.) and/or acts of terrorism.And perhaps most importantly of all，it’s about reducing greenhouse gases as we address the global climate crisis I wrote about yesterday in An Inconvenient Truth.
16．What can we learn from the first paragraph?
A．Onequarter of the US workforce is now doing their jobs at home.
B．The people who prefer to work from home can not afford to telecommute.
C．Although they can telecommute，Americans still prefer to work at office.
D．More and more people who can telecommute prefer to work from home.
17．According to the study，people don’t choose to work from home because________.
A．the working culture now is still not favorable
B．people want to meet their social needs
C．people are afraid of falling behind their colleagues
D．people can’t work well without teamwork
18．According to the passage，the main benefit for people to work from home is that________.
A．there would be less traffic jams
B．working efficiency could be greatly increased
C．the energysaving opportunities could be realized
D．the relation between bosses and workers could be greatly improved
19．What’s the author’s attitude towards working from home?
A．He thinks it is too early to put it into practice.
B．He thinks it is ideal and not practical enough.
C．He thinks it is the company’s fault for its delay.
D．He is completely in favor of it.
20．The underlined word “incentives” in the passage has a similar meaning to________.

Last week，my parents and I took a twodays trip to Emei Mountain in Sichuan.As everyone knows，it’s famous mountain with all kinds of plants and animals.The weather was fine.It was about noon we arrived at the mountain.The three of them were very excited.As we climbed the mountain，we fed monkeys，visiting temples and told stories.On the way up I was busy taking picture since the scenery was so beautiful.Time passes quickly.Evening came down，and we spent the night in a hotel at the top of the mountain.The food was expensive and the service was good.I was so tired that I fell asleep at the moment my head touched the pillow.
