In large cities this can mean l

18、osing three or more hours every day just traveling from home to work and back again. Surely there is an alternative! Well, according to a survey conducted in the US, 22% of people would much prefer working from home, should circumstances allow. Liz Sewell spoke to several people who have already mad

19、e the change to this modern-day workplace to try and find out more.Scott Miller is a 40-year-old draughtsman who has been working from home for the past two years. He admits that it wasnt something that he craved for; rather it happened when his wife, Jules, a university lecturer, was offered a full

20、-time position. “She didnt think that she could take the job. I knew that she really wanted it, but she didnt want to put our son into full-time care. I had been working for the same firm for seven years and decided to approach my bosses. My track record probably helped because they accepted the pro

21、position. As long as my productivity was maintained, they didnt mind where I worked. Also my wife is happy, and her career is blossoming.“Now I go into the office every Monday afternoon for a meeting and to pick up my weeks work. Interestingly, I feel that I work even better from home, so much so th

22、at even though our son is now at school, I still work there.“However, is working from home as simple as it sounds? Transferring work to a different workplace is only part of the equation for Joanne McCarthy, who until three months ago was a Human Resources Manager for a large public corporation. She

23、 has now become a full-time trader on the stock market. She says she loves the freedom that working from home gives her, but she really misses the social interaction.“As my job just involves working for myself, by myself, I find that I have become much more introverted because I dont have that face-

24、to-face, professional involvement with people any more. I spend all day on the computer checking the prices of my stocks. By evening, I am desperate to talk to my husband - even if it is only about what he has been doing all day.“She has realized that this could jeopardise her attempts to work from

25、home and has decided to join a local investors club which meets once a week, just to get more interaction in her life. “I dont think Ill learn anything from it, but it will be nice to meet with like-minded people and talk business. Meeting friends for coffee or for lunch meets my social needs, but w

26、ork is still a large part of my life.“One of Joannes friends helped her to make the transition to working from home. Louise Tate is an accountant and used to commute an hour each way to her office before deciding there had to be a better way. For her, the biggest problem with working from home was d

27、istractions. “It was so easy to get distracted by the other things you have to do at home, like washing and cleaning,“ she told us. “I had to force myself to view my study as an office, not part of the house. So I came up with a novel idea-my husband thought I was mad, but I had a separate entrance

28、built to the office. At the beginning of my workday, I go out of the front door of our house, lock it, and then walk around to the office. Now I feel that I am really at work, and my productivity has increased as a result. I know it sounds strange, but it works for me.“ Twelve months down the track

29、and Louise never wants to face the morning traffic again.People choose to work from home for a multitude of reasons. Take the example of George Mercer, who owns seven cafes within a 7 mile radius of downtown Miami. He has based his office in his Fort Lauderdale beachfront home, and keeps in contact

30、with his various managers by phone, fax and email. “When I started the business four years ago, I couldnt decide which cafe to have as my main base, so I decided to set up my office at home. With modern telecommunications nowadays, I am always able to contact my premises and order provisions from my

31、 suppliers.“If I get fed up with working from home, or if there are problems that have to be dealt with in person, I just jump in the car and drive to the cafes. From time to time, we have meetings at my place, which give the managers a break from their own offices. They get a change of scenery. I s

32、till have control but they have a large amount of independence in the day-to-day running of the cafes. I love my job and its obvious that my managers respond well to the arrangement. Lifes great at the moment and I wouldnt change a thing!“Obviously, not everyone is able to have the type of work that

33、 can be done from home, but there are plenty of people just like me-judging by Internet sites and the more traditional employment vacancy ads-who would jump at the chance.Questions 1-8Using information from Reading Passage 1, match the people listed (A-F) in the box below with their descriptions (Qu

41、ed by physiological changes to the brain. It changes the delicate organisation of the nerve cells in the brain by creating the gradual spread of sticky plaques and clumps of tangled fibres. As brain cells stop communicating with each other, they atrophy, causing memory and reasoning to fade. Tangles

42、 and plaques first appear in the entorhinal cortex, an essential memory-processing centre needed for creating memories and retrieving old ones. This does not affect detailed complex memories, but rather the simple recollections of facts that allow us to function socially, such as birthdays and lunch

43、 dates. Over time they move higher, invading the hippocampus, that part of the brain that forms complex memories of events or objects. These kinds of memories are, of necessity, more detailed and involve longer recollections. It allows us to recall how to function at work and complete reasonably com

44、plex tasks but without the need to analyse or make judgements. Finally, the tangles and plaques reach the top of the brain or the neocortex, the executive that sorts through stimuli and orchestrates behaviour. Here, amongst other functions, we are using analytical skills to evaluate, digest and resp

45、ond to situations appropriately.The onset of the disease is characterised by an initial memory decline and, over several years, it destroys cognition, personality and the ability to function, but preserves motor function. Confusion and restlessness may also occur. It is a progressive disease and the type, severity, sequence and progression of any mental changes that occur vary
