B.Cheat. C.Decline. D.Change.‎ 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Telecommuting(also known as working from home,or e-commuting)is a work arrangement in which the employee works outside the office,often working from home or a location close to home.36‎ Doctors,dentists,and countless other healthcare workers of the world will always need to be hands-on with patients,just as:‎ ‎ ◇ 37‎ ‎ ◇ Scientists need to be in labs.‎ The existence of telecommuting must have its benefits and appropriate population.‎ More freedom.‎ Telecommuting allows a worker greater freedom regarding her or his work hours and work location.It gives the employee more flexibility to balance work and personal obligations(义务）。‎ Productivity.‎ Working from home can make you more productive,because you do not have the distractions(分心）of office space. 38 Sometimes you might be easily distracted by home appliances such as washing machines, or you actually need supervision(监管）from your boss to concentrate on your work.‎ Employees' welfare.‎ Allowing workers to telecommute often makes them more productive. 39 Telecommuters are also likely to be happier in their jobs and are therefore more likely to stay with the company.Telecommuting even saves companies money in office expenses,such as rent and stationery(文具）。‎ ‎40‎ Some people also find working from home to be a bit isolating(隔离的），because you are not around your coworkers.Those who enjoy teamwork may lose their opportunity to bond with colleagues by teleconferencing alone.You should come up with a strategic plan if you want to ask your employer if you can telecommute.‎ A.Mental health issues.‎ B.Cooperation with workers.‎ C.That can benefit the company.‎ D.Of course,this is not necessarily true.‎ ‎ E.You need to find a productive place to do work.‎ F.Construction workers need to be on building sites.‎ G.However,many jobs are not suited to remote work.‎ 第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ Food is everything to me.I believe in its 41 that brings people together,I've had a great 42 in ‎ cooking since I was a young boy.My family would sit around the dinner table,telling stories and 43 dishes with all the flavors(味道）of a 44 Puerto Rican meal.The idea of being together as a 45 around a table of traditional recipes 46 led me to where I am today as the chief chef and vice president of Ruth's Chris Steak House.‎ I worked in various cooking positions before 47 my place within the company,though I 48 as a dishwasher,I had a dream to succeed in the exciting food industry.Later,as a(an) 49 hand in the team,I worked hard,and our team was given the name FILO(first in,last out) 50 we came in early and stayed late each day.‎ I came to 51 the true meaning of harmony when I worked with our founder,Ruth Fertel,who had a magic 52 for everything,not only for her famous 53 but also for relationships,54 everyone like family.Being at Ruth's Chris gave me a sense of 55 early on in my career.I wanted to be sure that the feeling 56 through in my role at Ruth's Chris.And I do 57 no effort to take care of both my teammates and each unique guest who 58 me to continue cooking and bring 59 to their faces.I love serving cuisine that leaves a(an) 60 impression with them,just like my family meals did for me.‎ ‎41.A.benefit B.power C.style D.challenge ‎ ‎42.A.role B.regret C.interest D.limitation ‎ ‎43.A.enjoying B.washing C.cooking D.collecting ‎ ‎44.A.plain B.fresh C.balanced D.classic ‎ ‎45.A.staff B.family C.team D.group ‎ ‎46.A.certainly B.reasonably C.eventually D.obviously ‎ ‎47.A.finding B.losing C.trying D.leaving ‎ ‎48.A.moved on B.took off C.settled down D.started out ‎ ‎49.A.old B. green C.busy D.clean ‎ ‎50.A.when B.whether C.because D.though ‎ ‎51.A.realize B.doubt C.conclude D.forget ‎52.A.rule B.drug C.show D.recipe ‎ ‎53.A.cakes B.steaks C.desserts D.cookies ‎ ‎54.A.comforting B.greeting C.treating D.hugging ‎ ‎55.A.belonging B.meaning C.stress D.security ‎ ‎56.A.pulled B.looked C.broke D.carried ‎ ‎57.A.make B.spare C.apply D.contribute ‎58.A.inspires B.reminds C.invites D.promises ‎59.A.flash B.shame C.smile D.shadow ‎ ‎60.A.general B.initial C.leading D.lasting ‎ 第二节（共10小题；每题1.5分，共15分）‎ 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。‎ Go(围棋）is a board game for two players,in which the aim is to surround more territory than the competitor.
