13、done if the result is that we focus even more on dealing with climate change.This 43 is astonishingly wrong. Such exaggerations do plenty of harm.

29、 with new techniquesBTELECOMMUTERS fall into two camps. Some sit on the sofa watching daytime soaps, pausing occasionally to check their BlackBerrys. Most, however, do real work, undistracted by meetings and talkative colleagues.In the future more people will work from home. With office space in Lon

30、don and New York so costly, many firms save money by encouraging staff to work in their loose clothes. Instead of having to bury their noses in strangers armpits on crowded trains, they can work via e-mail, Skype and virtual private networks.Yet, in a research published in MIT Sloan Management Revie

31、w, Daniel Cable of the London Business School shows that telecommuters are less likely to be promoted. In one experiment subjects were asked to judge scenarios in which the only difference was whether the employee was at his office desk or at home. Managers rated those at the office to be more depen

32、dable and industrious, regardless of the quality of their work.Visibility creates the illusion of value. Being the last to leave the office impresses bosses, even if you are actually larking around (胡鬧) on Facebook. Oddly, this holds true at firms that explicitly encourage staff to work from home. M

33、any Californian tech firms asked employees not to come to the office too often; yet bosses unconsciously punished those who obeyed.Remote workers understand this. Many frequently sent their bosses with progress reports to prove they are on the job. A fifth of the workers in the study admitted to lea

34、ving an e-mail or voice mail early or late in the day. Still, many are not as smart as they think. Some choose a Monday or Friday to work at home. That, says Mr. Cable, makes others think they are eager to extend the weekend.A culture of presenteeism hurts working mothers most. Many women (and some

35、men) work from home to allow themselves the flexibility to pick up kids from school. That need not mean they produce less; only that they do it at a time and a place of their own choosing. Some firms, such as Best Buy, an electronics retailer, recognize this and try hard to evaluate staff entirely o

36、n performance. But this is not easy. Intangibles such as teamworking skills matter, too. Mr. Cable thinks homeworking will lose its stigma (污名) only when most people do it. Or perhaps when the boss is telecommuting, too.59. What is most likely the main cause of the increasing number of telecommuters

37、?A. Increasing location rents.B. Annoying talkative colleagues.C. High-tech mobile phones.D. Attractive daytime soaps.60. What does the example of many California tech firms prove?A. Working at home is impractical in tech firms.B. Employees presence at office raises their value.C. Employees should j

38、udge when to obey.D. Bosses often dont keep their promises.61. What do wise telecommuters do to prove they are on the job?A. They give timely accounts of their work progress to their bosses.B. They check their e-mails and voice mails every day.C. They discuss the work with their bosses.D. They spend

39、 some time working on weekends.62. What is the biggest disadvantage of working at home according to the last paragraph?A. The traditional working culture can be hurt.B. Mothers work may be interrupted by their kids.C. Retailers cant get enough on-site employees.D. Employees may lack chances to devel

40、op certain skills.CAlzheimers disease has no cure. There are, however, five drugsknown and approvedthat can slow down the development of its symptoms. The earlier such drugs are administered, the better. Unfortunately, the disease is usually first noticed when people complain to their doctors of mem

41、ory problems. That is normally too late for the drugs to do much good. A simple and reliable test for Alzheimers that can be administered to everybody over the age of about 65, before memory-loss sets in, would therefore be useful.Theo Luider, of the Erasmus University Medical Centre in Rotterdam, a

42、nd his colleagues think they have found onebut it works only in women. They made their discovery, just reported in the Journal of Proteome Research, by tapping into a long-term, continuing study that started in 1995 with 1,077 non-demented and otherwise healthy people aged between 60 and 90. At the

43、beginning of the project, and subsequently during the periods 1997-99 and 2002-04, participants were brought in for a battery of neurological (神經(jīng)學的) and cognitive (認知的) investigations, physical examinations, brain imaging and blood tests.During the first ten years of the study, 43 of the volunteers

44、developed Alzheimers diseases. When Dr. Luider compared blood samples from these people with samples from 43 of their fellow volunteers, matched for sex and age, who had remained Alzheimers-free, he found something surprising. Levels of a substance called pregnancy zone protein (妊娠帶蛋白) had been unus

45、ually high, even before their symptoms appeared, in some of those who went on to develop Alzheimers disease.Those “some”, it turned out, were all women. On average, levels of pregnancy zone protein in those women who went on to develop Alzheimers were almost 60% higher than those of women who did no

46、t. In men, levels of the protein were the same for both.The reason for this curious result seems to be that the brain plaques (斑塊) associated with Alzheimers disease are themselves turning out pregnancy zone protein. Certainly, when Dr. Luider applied a chemical stain specific to that protein to the

47、 plaques of dead Alzheimers patients he found the protein present in them.Confusingly, though, it was there in the plaques of both sexes. Presumably, female cells (and therefore the plaques of female brains) make more of it than male cells do. But that remains to be proved. Whatever the reason, howe

48、ver, this result means that women, at least, may soon be able to tell whether and when they are at risk of Alzheimers and thus do something about it before they start losing their minds.63. What can we learn from the first paragraph?A. No medication can slow down the development of Alzheimers sympto

49、ms. B. To detect Alzheimers disease before memory loss appears is vital.C. Doctors had better handle Alzheimers disease when people are 65 years old. D. People who always complain are most likely to have Alzheimers disease. 64. Theunderlinedword“one” inParagraph2refersto_.A.asimpleandreliabletestfor

It wont go high until the symptoms of Alzheimers appear. B. In men, levels of it remain stable for their l

The passage is mainly about _.A. patients of Alzheimers disease and its drugsB. an introduction to the pregnancy zone protein C. a new discovery concerning Alzheime

52、rs disease D. the development stages of Alzheimers disease DHe was in the first third-grade class I taught at Saint Marys School in Morris, Minnesota. All 34 of my students were dear to me, but Mark Eklund was one in a million. Very neat in appearance, he had that happy-to-be-alive attitude that mad

53、e even his occasional mischievousness delightful.Mark also talked continuously. I had to remind him again and again that talking without permission was not acceptable. One morning my patience was growing thin when Mark talked once too often, and then I made a novice-teachers mistake. I looked at Mar

54、k and said, “If you say one more word, I am going to tape your mouth shut!”It wasnt ten seconds later when Chuck blurted out, “Mark is talking again.” I hadnt asked any of the students to help me watch Mark, but since I had stated the punishment in front of the class, I had to act on it.I remember t

55、he scene as if it had occurred this morning. Without saying a word, I proceeded to Marks desk, tore off two pieces of tape and made a big X with them over his mouth. I then returned to the front of the room.As I glanced at Mark to see how he was doing, he winked at me. That did it! I started laughin

56、g. The entire class cheered as I walked back to Marks desk, removed the tape, and shrugged my shoulders. His first words were, “Thank you for correcting me, Sister.”At the end of the year I was asked to teach junior-high math. The years flew by, and before I knew it Mark was in my classroom again. H

57、e was more handsome than ever and just as polite.One Friday, things just didnt feel right. We had worked hard on a new concept all week, and I sensed that the students were growing discouraged with themselvesand edgy with one another. I had to change the mood of the class before it got out of hand.

58、So I asked them to list the names of the other students in the room on two sheets of paper, leaving a space between each name. Then I told them to think of the nicest thing they could say about each of their classmates and write it down. It took the remainder of the class period to finish the assign

59、ment.That Saturday, I wrote down the name of each student on a separate sheet of paper, and I listed what everyone else had said about that individual. On Monday I gave each student his or her list. Some of them ran two pages. Before long, the entire class was smiling. “Really?” I heard whispers. “I

60、 never knew that meant anything to anyone!” “I didnt know others liked me so much!”No one ever mentioned those papers in class again. I never knew if the students discussed them after class or with their parents, but it didnt matter. The exercise had accomplished its purpose. The students were happy
