Some office procedures may be unfamiliar if you are a new comer in America． Again，matters of time and pace crop up．Work days officiafly start at 9：00 A．M．Thisshould really mean 9 o’clock—not ten past or half past nine． You will find some people feelfree with starting time，but employers notice this even though they do not necessarily blame it officially．

Employees in many nations have an idea that one works when the boss is present，but any time he is not there，if there is nothing specific or pressing to do，one can relax by reading the newspaper，doing one’s fingernails，or otherwise“passing the time\a personal way．In America one is being paid for one’s time．Employees are expected to find other work if their own desks are dear，to finish anything left from previous days，or to help someone else with his work—but never sit without doing their duty．The employer expects value for the money he is spending．He“owns’’your time while he is paying for it．The phrase“time is money’”means exactly that.The boss is not asking more of you than he is doing himself；he will quite probably work through lunch hour and even take work home late at night．

Employee’s lunch hours shouId be kept within the given time(unless one is officiallvdIscussmg company business)Long lunch—time absence may be overlooked now and then．but not habitually. Also，although others may start getting ready t01eave the office a few minutes earlier, new employees should be careful not to cut the day short． Work until the day officially ends at five 0’clock if you are in an office where flexible work time is the accepted procedure· Flexible work hours--starting or ending work earlier or later-一are fairly common in Europe but relatively new in the U．S．A． Some half million Americans are on the system} some people estimate that ten million will have that option sooner or later．The system is designed to ease traffic problems at first．But it adds family time to women workers as a result，for it enables them to choose their timeworking in an office’thus allowing them more chances to work and take care of their children at the same time. Besides it gives people a greater sense of control over their lives．A by—product appears to be greater worker productivity，less absenteeism and a higher sense of work ethic． 26．In the first paragraph，the phrase“crop up”means ．

A．matter a great deal B．be very important C．account much D．happen or arise 27·In the sentence“…but employers notice this even though they do not necessarily blame it officially”，the pronoun“this”refers to the fact that ． A．some people feel free to do whatever they want to do

B．this or that employee is late for work C．work days officially start at 9：00 A．M D．nine o'clock means nine o'clock exactly

28.The author suggests that it be a wrong idea that in America． A.if one is not busy，he can relax by reading the newspaper B．one is being paid for one's time

C.one should keep working no matter(无论)the boss is present or not D．time is money

29．A new employee should be careful——． A．to come to the office ahead of schedule B．to follow the working procedure

C．not to leave the office until the day officially ends D．not to take too much time for lunch

30．What is not true as far as flexible working time is considered? A．It has greatly reduced the traffic problem． B．It adds family time to women workers．

C．It brings forward a greater working productivity．

D．It gives people a greater sense of control over their lives． 短文理解2

No country in the world has more daily newspapers than the USA．There are almost

2,000 of them，as compared with l80 in Japan，164 in Argentina and lll in Britain.The

quality of some American papers is extremely high and their Views are quoted all over the world．Distinguished dailies like the Washington Post or the New York Times have a powerful influence all over the country．However the Post and the Times are not national newspapers in the sense that

The Times is in Britain or LeMonde is in France，since each American city has its own daily newspapers．The best of these present detailed accounts of national and international news，but many tend to limit themselves to state or city news·

Like the press in most other countries，American newspapers range from the “sensational”，which feature crime， sex and rumour，to the “serious\ which focus on factual news and the analysis of world events．But with few exceptions American newspapers try to entertain as well as give information，for they have to compete with television· Just as American newspapers appeal to all tastes，so they also try and apply to readers of all political persuasions．A few newspapers support extremist(极端分子)groups on the far right and on the far left，but most daily newspapers attempt to attract middle-of-the-road Americans who are essentially moderate． Many of these papers print columns by well—known journalists of different political and social views，in order to present a balanced picture.

As in other democratic countries American newspapers can be either responsible or irresponsible, but it is generally accepted that the American Press serves its country well and that it has more than once bravely uncovered political scandals(丑闻)or crimes。For instance’ the Watergate Affair．The newspapers drew the attention of the public to the fears of the Vietnam War． 31．There are more daily newspapers in ．

A．Britain than in the USA B．France than in Britain C·the USA than in Britain or Japan D．Britain than in Japan

D·they have to give factual news in an interesting way

33.Many American newspapers attract readers of different political persuasions by A．supporting extremist groups from time to time

B·inviting middle—of the-road Americans to write articles for them C．avoiding carrying articles about extremists

D·printing articles representing different political viewpoints 34．The word“press”in the second paragraph means A．a machine for printing B．great force C．the business of printing D．newspapers 35．This passage is mainly about ．

A．the characteristics of American newspaPers B．the development of American newspapers C．the functions of American newspapers

D·the merits and shortcomings of American newspapers
