The last few months have seen record numbers of us working from home, which begs the question: are offices still needed?
The likelihood is that you or a family member may have spent at least some time working from home since lockdown began. According to F, a huge percent of us were working from home, which has led commentators to dub the last few months a mass-work-from-home experiment.
Many people soon noticed positives such as increased productivity as a result of no office distractions, and more free time because there’s no need for commuting(上下班往返). For some, parents in particular, the ability to work from home with flexible hours has been a huge positive. Home working also cuts pollution levels due to fewer of us embarking on the daily commute and would save companies the costs of renting office space.
Some argue the shift to remote working is long overdue, with broadband technology now widely available and an ever-increasing number of people balancing working with childcare.
“Hopefully it will show employers who were resistant that it is possible to work effectively from home,” says Mandy Garner, managing editor of Workingmums.co.uk. Mandy adds that flexible working was regarded mainly as a bit of a favour done to mums. There was little research about it. Now we have countless studies showing the benefits.
A key concern, however, is loneliness, with F reporting 19 percent of remote workers were experiencing this. Even with video calls, it is difficult to recreate the buzzing dynamic of an office. Many people also have a daily battle with poor Wi-Fi. And there’s the challenge of switching off once the working day is over—an office creates a physical and mental line between work and home, which can be easily blurred(变得模糊) when working from home.
The future of offices is uncertain but with the benefits—to employees and employers—of remote working, it may be that a real shift has taken place and we won’t be going back to work in the same way again.
24.What do we know about working from home?
A.It was resisted by employees. B.It can result in more distractions.
C.It brings about broadband technology. D.It may lead to higher efficiency.
25.What advantage does working in offices have over working from home?
A.It will keep employees free from loneliness.
B.It can build a line between work and home.
C.It can balance working with childcare.
D.It may have the challenge of switching off.
26.What is the author’s attitude toward remote working?
A.Indifferent B.Sympathetic C.Disapproving D.Positive
27.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A.The benefits of remote working B.A mass-work-from-home experiment
C.The End of the Office? D.A real shift in employment?
C
The world's largest iceberg (冰山)is floating toward the island of South Georgia in the southern Atlantic Ocean. Scientists fear the iceberg could crash into the island and block major feeding areas for a large population of penguins (企鹅)and seals.
Satellite images show the iceberg has remained in one piece. It is estimated to be about 150 kilometers long and 48 kilometers wide. It is traveling at one kilometer an hour and is on a path to hit South Georgia in around 30 days.
The British Antarctic Survey says it is concerned that if the iceberg hits the island, it could prevent the penguins and seals from reaching food supplies.
Professor Geraint Tarling, an ecologist with the Antarctic Survey, says right now is the time of year when seals and penguins spend a lot of time caring for their young. This means the distance that parents have to travel to find food is important.
"That means they have to go a lot further, they have to go around the iceberg, or to actually go further to find sources of food," Tarling said. "And that time is quite important at this particular period of their life cycle."
The breaking off of icebergs from Antarctica is a natural process. But the process is changing with climate change. " What we 're seeing with models and some observations now is the rate at which this is happening is increasing. And so, this might become more of a usual thing into the future," Tarling said.
The iceberg also could damage South Georgia's valuable fishing industry. Fishers pay for the rights to catch Patagonian toothfish, icefish and krill (磷虾)in waters off the island.
Officials are hoping that changing weather patterns could direct the iceberg out into the open ocean, where it would, in time, break up and melt.
28.What will happen if the iceberg hits the island of South Georgia?
A.Wildlife will lose their homes.
B.The iceberg will remain in one piece.
C.The island of South Georgia will disappear.
D.Feeding will be challenging for penguins and seals.
29.What can we learn from what Tarling says?
A.Icebergs are coming off faster than before.
B.Penguins and seals' birth rates are increasing.
C.The iceberg's breaking off is caused by human.
D.It's unusual to see the iceberg melting is speeding.
30.What does the last paragraph tell us?
A.The present situation is beyond hope.
B.The weather patterns are controllable.
C.The iceberg is bound to melt very soon.
D.The crash of the iceberg may be avoidable.
31.What's the main theme of the passage?
A.The changing climate in Antarctica. B.The potential problems of the iceberg.
C.The island of South Georgia. D.The population of sea animals.
D
It hadn't been easy, but Elia Gonzalez had always managed to keep her family fed by stretching her husband's modest income as a cook at a restaurant in Puerto Rig's capital, San Juan. But that changed in mid-March, when those bars closed and her daughter's school, where she'd gotten free breakfast and lunch, did too.
By April 20, Elia and her husband had to skip meals to save food for their children. Still, by the end of April, all they could give their children was a bowl of rice with an egg mixed in.
Her sons, 4 and 5-year-olds, would ask for more. But her oldest daughter, Angellia, a talkative kindergartener, tried to comfort her mother.
“She said, 'Mama, I'm still hungry', Elia said, “but she told me it was OK because she was big and could wait until I got more food. That hit me hard."
A study in 2015 found that 22 percent of adults reported skipping meals because they didn't have money for food in Puerto Rico. "Now, the rate is much higher,“ said Jose Caraballo-Cueto, co-author of the study. "The unemployment rate has risen to 46 percent and the average saving rate here is zero. "
The worsening food crisis has brought people in Puerto Rico closer. Christel Galindez, a community leader, has been picking up thirty cooked meals a day from a church near her home and delivering them to different families every day. "Do you know when people are really in need?” Christel asked. "When you show up with a plate of food and they start to cry!"
During her daily food delivery run last Wednesday, she drove up to Elia's front door playing a birthday song through her car's speakers. Angellia rushed out with a big smile and started dancing to the music when Christel handed three containers of food and three cupcakes to her mother.
"Thank you so much. Today happened to be Angellia's sixth birthday. But I had nothing in the kitchen," said Elia, who was struggling to hold back her tears.
32.Where had Elia's daughter got her breakfast and lunch on her schooldays?
A.At home. B.At her father's restaurant.
C.At school. D.At a church in the neighborhood.
33.Why are Jose Caraballo-Cueto and his study mentioned in paragraph 5?
A.To summarize the previous paragraphs. B.To provide answers to the problem.
C.To add some background information. D.To introduce a new topic for discussion.
34.Why did Christel come to Elia's house?
A.She was on her way to help those in need.
B.She was sent by a church to deliver food.
C.She came to celebrate Elia's birthday.
D.She made some cupcakes for the children.
35.What is the best title for the text?
A.Angellia, a Lovely Girl B.The Health Crisis in San Juan
C.Crisis Can Bring People Closer D.Hunger Spreads Quickly in Puerto Rico

Take part in classes like art and PE as these are often cooperative, team-building environments. Before long you'll start to pick up on what people are like and begin make friends that share common interests.
