Then she gets her 7-year-old son and 3-year-old daughter ready for school. Both kids are out the door by 9 a.m., and then Caspi puts in an additional three hours of company time. Caspi picks up the kids between noon and 3 p.m. and spends the rest of the day dealing with cellphone calls and mothering chores（家务杂事）like helping the children withhomework. She's usually still answering E-mail after the kids go to bed.This is the world of the working mother today, where "work-life balance11 has evolved to mean something drastically different from what it did just five years ago. Increasingly, work and life are barely separatethey're fluid. One flows into the other as growing legions of mothers who are entrepreneurs, or nmompreneursn, work to tear down barriers and redefine the workplace.The number of women in the U.S. workforce has doubled since 1970. But until the past few years, the vast majority who worked had little choice but to leave their children at day-care centers or with caregivers and join the 9-to-5 compartmentalized workplace. However, women also continued to take many roles at all hours and still handle 75% of the housework.Technological advances一chief among them, the Internet and cell phones一 have helped alter that dynamic. Another factor is changing attitudes, especially among women of Generation X in their late 20s and 30s. As they launch their careers and prepare to have children, they're demanding一and often getting-radically different work arrangements from those their mothers did. "Generation Xers are willing to take a stand and are more interested in flexibility and making it work for their families, rather than the security of having a job like their predecessors/ says Susan Seitel, president of Work & Family Connection, a human resources consulting group. Working mothers who can't get employers to offer flexible working arrangements are striking out on their own. Women are starting businesses at twice the rate of all businesses. From 1997 to 2004, employment at female-owned companies grew by 24.2%, more than twice the rate of the 11.6% logged by all businesses, and the pace of revenue increase was also higher39% vs. 33.5%.Reshaped workdays arenft just the preserve of women who have started their own businesses. With the jobless rate below 5.5%, competition for skilled employees is forcing many companies to offer working mothers arrangements unheard of a decade ago. At management consulting firm Bain & Co., employees are allowed to choose flexible options that fit their working style. Sometimes, that means shifting schedules according to the needs of the family. In a typical day of Laine Caspi, she spends most of her time.A.outside her working placeB.in replying cells phones and E-mailsC.in looking after her childrenD.in dealing with housework32.Section ADirections: In this section, there is a short passage with 5 questions or incomplete statements. Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.There are two methods of fighting, the one by law, the other by force; the first method is that of men, the second of beasts; but as the first method is often insufficient; one must have recourse to the second. It is, therefore, necessary for a prince to know how to use both the beast and the man. This was covertly taught to the rulers by ancient writers, who relate how Achilles and many others of those ancient princes were given Chiron the centaur to be brought up and educated under his discipline. The parable（寓言）of this semi-animal, semi-human teacher is meant to indicate that a prince must know how to use both natures, and that the one without the other is not durable.A prince, being thus obliged to know well how to act as a beast, must imitate the fox, and the lion, for the lion cannot protect himself from traps, and the fox cannot defend himself from wolves. Those that wish to be only lions do not understand this. Therefore, a prudent ruler ought not to keep faith when by doing so it would be against his interest, and the reasons which made him bind himself no longer exist. If men were all good, this precept would not be a good one, but as they are bad, and would not observe their faith with you, so you are not bound to keep faith with them. Nor have legitimate grounds ever failed a prince who wish to show colorable excuse for the nonfulfilment of his promise. Of this one could furnish an infinite number of examples, and how many times peace has been broken, and how many promises rendered worthless, by the faithlessness of princes, and those that have best been able to imitate the fox have succeeded best. But it is necessary to be able to disguise this character well, and to be a great feigner and dissembler, and men are so simple and so ready to obey present necessities, that the one who deceives will always find those who allow themselves to be deceived.The writer docs not believe that.33.A nine year old schoolgirl single handedly cooks up a science fair experiment that ends up debunking （揭穿真相）a wildly practiced medical treatment. Emily Rosa's target was a practice known as therapeutic (治疗的)touch (TT for short), whose advocates manipulate patients' "energy fieldn to make them feel better and even, say some, to cure them of various ills. Yet Emily's test shows that these energy fields can't be detected, even by trained TT practitioners (行医者).Obviously mindful of the publicity value of thesituation, Journal editor Georgy Lundberg appeared on TV to declare, nAge doesn't matter. Itfs good science that matters, and this is good science/ Emily's mother Linda Rosa, a registered nurse, has been campaigning against TT for nearly decade. Linda first thought about TT in the late 1980s, when she learned it was on the approved list for continuing nursing education in Colorado. Its 100,000 trained practitioners (48,000 in the U. S.) don't touch their patients. Instead, they waved their hands a few inches from the patients body, pushing energy fields around until they are in "balance". TT advocates say these manipulations can help heal wounds, relieve pain and reduce fever. The claims are taken seriously enough that TT therapists are frequently hired by leading hospitals, at up to $ 70 an hour, to smooth patients1 energy, sometimes during surgery.Yet Rosa could not find any evidence that it works. To provide such proof, TT therapists would have to sit down for independent testing - something they haven't been eager to do, even though James Randi has offered more than $1 million to anyone who can demonstrate the existence of a human energy field. (He's had one taker so far. She failed.) A skeptic might conclude that TT practitioners are afraid to lay their beliefs on the line. But who could turn down an innocent four grader? Says Emily: nI think they didn't take me very seriously because Em a kid.”The experiment was straightforward: 21 TT therapists stuck their hands, palms up, through a screen. Emily held her own hand over one of theirs 一 left or right 一 and the practitioners had to say which hand it was. When the results were recorded, they'd done no better than they would have by simply guessing. If there was an energy field, they couldn't feel it.Which of the following is evidence that TT is wildly practiced? A.TT has been in existence for decades.B.Many patients were cured by therapeutic touch.C.TT therapists are often employed by leading hospitals.D.More than 100,000 people are undergoing TT treatment.五、5.Error Correction。题) 34.S735 .The decision to move is also influenced by "personal factors”of the promising migrant.

When initially introducing into the market, the process of adoption is slow. SI.The early models are expensive and hard to use, and perhaps evenunsafe. The economic impact is relatively great. S2.The second phase is the explosive one, where the innovationwas rapidly adopted by a large number of people. It gets cheaper andeasier to use and becomes something familiar. And then in the thirdstage, diffusion of the innovation slows down again, as if it permeatesout across the economy. During the explosive phase, the whole new industries spring up to produce the new product or innovation, but to service it. For example, during the 1920s, there was a dramaticacceleration in auto production, from 1.9 million in 1920 to4.5 million in 1929. This boom was accompanying by all sorts of S6.other essential activities necessary for auto-based nation: Roads hadS7.to be built for the cars to run on refineries and oil wells, to providethe gasoline; and garages, to repair it. S8.Historically, the same pattern is repeated again and again withinnovations. The construction of the electrical system requested an S9.enormous early investment in generation and distribution capacity.The introduction of the radio was followed by a buying spree（无节制 的狂热行为）by Americans what quickly brought radios into almostS10.half of all households by 1930, up from nearly none in 1924.Si参考答案 l.A Harmonious Cyberspace The advent of the Internet ushered in a new era of interpersonal communications and business operations.
