Actually, I"m just getting to 1 what millions of people are already living: the mobile office. Office space has undergone marked changes in the past few decades, with wooden desks being 2 by customizable cubicle walls and desks, then shifting to many of the new open-office designs we see now.

填空题Directions: Read the text from a magazine article in which several people expressed their different opinions on the same issue. Please match the name of each person to one of the statements given below. Mary The new book about the death of Princess Diana is an insult to the French medical team that fought in vain to save her life last August. Everyone knows the situation was hopeless. It is tasteless for a couple of American journalists to criticize the heroic efforts of the French doctors and the British intelligence team that have had to pick up the pieces and deal with the aftermath of the accident. The authors can wheel out as many American Experts as they like, expound on as many theories as they like of how American procedures could have saved Diana's life, but this is just another tacky attempt to make money out of Diana's horrific death. Sian Given the extent of Diana's injuries, her death was inevitable. Stories about what might have happened only cause further pain for the families of those involved. Let the dead rest in peace. Andre The suggestion that Diana could have been saved if she had been transported more quickly to a hospital completely ignores the French system of medical rescue, which relies on fully equipped ambulances manned by a medical team under the supervision of a physician. It's easy to say afterward that Diana should have been sent to the hospital right away. But when a team arrives on the scene, it is impossible in most cases to tell immediately what is the best solution. The French approach is a reasonable one. Rob You provided a tantalizing excerpt from what is no doubt a fascinating book. The section on whether Diana could have lived debates relevant issues of delay in hospital treatment, given that Diana survived for nearly two hours. But what is surely more important is that if she, Dodi Fayed and the chauffeur had been wearing seat belts, they almost certainly would have survived and been able to throw some real light on exactly what happened in the accident. Now match each of the persons with the appropriate statement. Note: there is one extra statement. Statements A. No one can tell exactly what happened in the accident. B. I think we should not bring any more pains for the families concerned. C. I think some American reporters are just attempting to make more money out of her death. D. The French medical team is correct in treating Diana on the scene. E. Diana could have been saved if she was delivered to the hospital quickly.

Hardly． Experience teaches US material satisfaction comes only when one finds himself wealthier than those around him; and, in a like manner, one feels unhappy only when finding himself poorer than his friends or relatives． So, a millionaire will experience a feeling of being lowered when confronting a billionaire, while a worker with a monthly salary of several hundred dollars becomes the envy of the villagers in remote mountainous regions． David Niven： True happiness is not a result from human action．Results are temporary whereas happiness is everywhere and can neither be created nor destroyed．The happiness is realized by understanding one's own SELE. With true happiness there is no place for disappointments! True happiness may mean pain and restraint in the beginning but will lead to eternal joy and freedom．To achieve true happiness, we should isolate and remove the negatives． Joshua Patty： Happiness is a state of mind．You can be happy in almost any situation．Likewise, you can be unhappy in an equal number of situations．In the end，it's your decision． If one can control one's unhappiness, then one must be able to control one's happiness．As far as I know, the human genome project has not been able to identify a single part of any human chromosome which is responsible for happiness． {{B}}Laura Johnson：{{/B}} So what makes me a happy person?

填空题Article One: Eliminate as many sources of stress as you can. For example, if crowds bother you, go to the supermarket when you know the lines won't be too long. Try renting videotapes rather than going to crowded movie theaters. Clear up the clutter in your life by giving away or throwing away the things that get in your way. A garage sale is one effective way to do this. Article Two: If you are always running late, sit down with a pencil and paper and see how you are actually allot ting your time. Say it takes you 40 minutes to get to work. Are you leaving your house on time? You may be able to solve your problem(and de-stress your life a hit)just by being realistic. If you can't find the time for all the activities that are important to you, maybe you are trying to do too much. Again, make a list of what you do during the day and how much each activity takes. Then cut back. Article Three: If you feel stress(or anything else.is getting the better of you, seek professional help--a doctor or therapist. Early signs of excess stress are loss of a sense of well-being and reluctance to get up in the morning to face another day. Article Four: If you can't remove the stress, remove yourself.

Having other people around will absorb some of the pressure you would normally feel. Article Five: Competing with others, whether in accomplishments, appearance, or possessions, is an avoidable source of stress. You might know people who do all they can to provoke envy in others.

Reserve time for solitude and avoid stressful people. C. Avoid self-inflicted stress. D. Manage your time according to your priorities and available time. E. Avoid stressful circumstances. F.

填空题Amanda Adichie

填空题Margaret Stephens: On the job, we expect equal pay for equal work. Work gives a man identity and status. The same often holds true for a woman. We want our husbands take our jobs as seriously as they take their own. I worked as a nurse, he, a sales-execu- tive. I followed him around the country. Each time he was transferred, I found a new position for myself. It wasn"t until I received an award from my hospital that he realized how emotionally attached I was to my profession. Barbra Stern: Men and women solve problems in different ways. A man tends to be direct-line up all his options, select one, and then proceed. Women can be direct, too, but they may also choose a less obvious path. What women really want is for men to respect the special ways they have of analyzing problems. When men struggle with a problem, they stay right with it, but often getting more and more upset. Women are more likely to simply let problems solve themselves. Cindy Rodgers: Men tend to be romantic, often falling in love more quickly than women, who tend to focus on practical considerations in choosing a mate and look for long-term qualities in a partner. Far more than men, they allow their heads to control their hearts. Even though women may ache for love, they carry around an inner evaluator who asks, "Can I count on this man?" So any man who hopes to sweep a woman off her feet had better lengthen his timetable Nora Kent: Men are often more uncomfortable than women about being alone and tend to get bored more easily. Some men want to control their wives and they get anxious when their wives are off on their own, beyond reach. Women need "down time" to shop, read, recharge batteries, and a man shouldn"t feel hurt if his spouse doesn"t want to spend every free minute with him. When a woman takes time to be alone, she"s expressing a need to be autonomous. Jessica Vicino: A woman wants most everything a man wants: success, power, status, money, love, marriage, children, happiness and fulfillment. Few women relish being a mother, secretary or general picker upper for their husbands. A woman wants the man in her life to be a true equal, someone who respects her strengths, treats her weakness with kindness. In short, she wants a friend, a lover and a partner who understands her. Now match each of the persons to the appropriate statement. Note: there are two extra statements. Statements A．Women don"t fall in love as easily as men do. B．Women need sympathy on the job. C．Sometimes, a woman needs to be alone. D．A woman wants to be friends with her husband. E．Men are less serious about their work than women. F．Women solve problems differently from men. G．Men should take their wives" work as seriously as theirs.

填空题Mrs. John

填空题4th Person

填空题 {{B}}Joan Thomas:{{/B}} My husband has been reduced to the condition of a vegetable. Keeping him alive is meaningless now. I'm sure that if he could speak, he would beg us to switch off that oxygen machine. Why can't he die of dignity? Seeing him in this condition is causing us all great suffering. He has been in a coma for more than five months and is being kept alive by this machine which supplies him with oxygen. I have applied to a court for permission to have the machine switched off. I believe that he would rather have died peacefully than prolonged suffering for such a long time.{{B}}Doctor Williams:{{/B}} Mr. Thomson is clinically alive, but he has absolutely no chance of recovery. His brain has been irreparably damaged by the coma. He could remain in this condition for years. Frankly speaking, that would benefit nobody. Hospital beds are scarce and medical staff are very busy. Hundreds of patients are waiting to be treated. I would be wrong to keep Mr. Thomson here and to refuse other patients who do have a chance of recovery. If his relatives request us to switch off the machine and if the court gives us the permission, we will stop all the treatment and allow him to die a natural and painless death.{{B}}Doctor Fitzsim:{{/B}} I'm very surprised that Doctor Williams approves of Mrs. Thomas's court application. A doctor's duty is to save people's life in whatever way he can. A doctor can never say definitely that his patient has no chance of recovery, however bad the situation may seem. I've seen patients in the same conditions suddenly regain consciousness after several months and become relatively healthy again. Human life is far too invaluable to put an end to it for the convenience of others. Medical science has made great progress over the last 20 years with the development of new drugs and operational techniques. Many diseases can now be cured and the lives of incurable patients may be prolonged.{{B}}Graham Blanchard:{{/B}} Right now, there are thousands of incurable patients lying helplessly in bed, suffering pain and misery and wishing they could be allowed to die. But the doctors are afraid to help with their death for fear of legal or professional impact. I propose that doctors be allowed to discontinue treatment or administer lethal doses of painkillers if requested to do so by patients suffering from incurable diseases, or, in the case of Mr. Thomas, by their relatives. It's time the law recognized the fact the people not only have a right to live in dignity, they also have the right to die in dignity too.{{B}}Sidney Best:{{/B}} Any doctor who, with the intention of putting an end to the life of a patient, performs acts which lead to the death of patient, may be convicted of murder, under the present law. No court is empowered to give the right to do such acts and therefore Mrs. Thomson's application is certain to be rejected. But if parliament passes Mr. Blanchard Bill, the situation will change drastically. Doctors will be given the right to kill patients on request, thus making helpless patients in all kinds of dangers. There might be conspiracy between doctors and potential heirs, spouses wishing to remarry, even potential receivers of organ transplants. The intention of this Bill many be good, but the possibilities of abuse are too numerous for it to be passed. {{B}}Now match each of the persons (61 to 65) to the appropriate statement. Note: there are two extra statements. Statements{{/B}}[A] A doctor's duty is to save his patient's life not to end it.[B] Doctors should be given the right to decide whether to stop an incurable patient's life.[C] My husband should be given the right to die of dignity.[D] It would be better for everyone that Mr. Thomas die a natural and painless death.[E] Doctors are afraid of mercy killing.[F] We should not pass the Bill for mercy killing, simply because it would put many patients' lives in danger.[G] People have the right to die in dignity.
