It’s 8:30, time for John to start work. So he turns on his radio. Then he eats breakfast. As he eats, he reads his e-mail and reviews his to-do list. Then he sits on the sofa and thinks about an article he needs to write ... Wait a minute! Radio? Breakfast? Sofa? What kind of workplace is this? Well, actually it is John’s house, and he is a telecommuter — he works at home, communicating with the workplace through the Internet.
Like John, millions of people — and their employers — are finding that telecommuting is a great way to work. Telecommuters can follow their own timetables. They work in the comfort of homes, where they can also look after young children or elderly parents. They save time and money by not traveling to work. Their employers save, too, because they need less office space and furniture. Studies show that telecommuters change jobs less often. This saves employers even more money. Telecommuting helps society, too, by reducing pollution and traffic problems.
Jobs that are suited to telecommuting include writing, design work, computer programming and accounting. If a job is related to working with information, a telecommuter can probably do it.

(答案→)B 解析:本文介绍了一种新的人群—“在家上班族”。这些远距离上班族在家通过网络从事工作,这样既能在舒适的环境下工作,又能照顾家人。对于雇主来说,这种新型工作方式也节省了他们租用办公场所、办公设备的费用。适合在家从事的工作包括写作、电脑编程和会计等职业。【小题1】B细节理解题。从文章首段末句he works at home, communicating with the workplace through the Internet.可知John在家通过网络进行工作,故B选项正确。【小题2】D细节理解题。根据文章第二段Telecommuters can follow their own timetables.判断D选项正确。【小题3】A细节理解题。文章倒数第二段介绍Studies show that telecommuters change jobs less often. This saves employers even more money.由此可知A为正确选项。【小题4】D词义猜测题。后面列举的都是可以在家里完成的工作,由此判断suit to 应该是适合的意思,故D选项正确。
