More and more employees are telecommuting, doing their job at home or another remote site.“Its a trend thats here now and youre going to see a l
23、ot more telecommuting because people dont have to put up with commuting (来回上下班). They want more work/life balance, they want less stress in their lives and companies want to drive costs after their bottom lines,“ says John Edwards, President of the International Telework Association and Council.Howe
24、ver, Edwards says, “The biggest problem at the moment is dealing with middle management who is uncomfortable with management style focusing on results. They are used to the line of sight management style. But they have to change to more results-oriented management style which can often be slightly o
25、pposite, so they feel uncomfortable with that.“Edwards says telecommuting kills distance-and a lot of face to face meetings are replaced by tele-conferences. “Distance does not exist anymore. Its the death of distance, if you like. So now its possible to have more invisible teams so that the necessi

30、age. After reading the passage you should give brief answers to the 5 questions (No.56 through No.60) following them. 52 Sportfishing may be done in fresh water or salt water. Freshwater fishing takes place in lakes, ponds, rivers, and streams. Game fish found in these waters tend to be larger than
31、average freshwater fish. The three most favored methods of fishing in both salt and fresh water are bait fishing (the use of live or dead bait placed on a hook). spin fishing (the use of metal or plastic lures(诱饵) ) . and fly-fishing (the use of feathered lures resembling either insects or small fis
32、h ). In all three methods, a fisher chooses a rod(竿) . a reel(线轴), and line of an appropriate weight and strength.The best sportfishing occurs in spring and fall, when game fish are most active, either searching for prey or reproducing. Although they may be caught during winter and summer, fish are
33、generally more sluggish(行动迟缓的)then and less likely to chase the lure. Several other factors influence fishing. Water temperature is important, as different species are more active at different temperature levels. Also, if a fishs natural prey is nearby, that game fish will be active. Some fish. part
34、icularly in salt water, move to different areas depending upon the phase of the moon and the levels of the ocean tides. Weather affects game fish activity, as fish are more likely to search for food before and after bad weather, when the water is disturbed.52 According to the passage, where can you

36、. Examples include dry cleaners, shoe repair stores, barber shops, restaurants, hospitals, and hotels. (71)In many cases service enterprises are moderately small because they do not have mechanized services and limit service to only as many individuals as they can accommodate at one time. For exampl
37、e, a waiter may be able to provide good service to four tables at once, but with five or more tables, customer service will suffer.(72)In recent years the number of service enterprises in wealthier free-market economies has grown rapidly, and spending on services now accounts for a significant perce
38、ntage of all spending. For example, private services accounted for about 20 percent of U.S. spending in 1994. Wealthier nations have developed postindustrial economies, where entertainment and recreation businesses have replaced most raw material business such as the mining, and some manufacturing i
39、ndustries. Many of these industries have moved to developing nations, especially with the rise of large multinational corporations. As postindustrial economies have accumulated wealth, they have come to support systems of leisure, in which people are willing to pay others to do things for them. (73)
40、 In the United States, vast numbers of people work fixed schedules for long hours in indoor offices, stores, and factories. (74) Many employers pay high enough wages so that employees can afford to balance their work schedules with purchased recreation. (75) People in the United States, for example,
41、 support thriving travel, theme park, resort, and recreational sport businesses.一、Part V Writing (25 minutes)Directions: This part is to test your ability to do practical writing.
