Part III. Reading Comprehension Directions: This part is to test your reading ability. You will find 2 tasks for you to fulfill. You should read the reading materials carefully and do the tasks as you are instructed. Task 1 (10 points) Directions: After reading the following passage, you will find 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each question or statement there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. You should make the correct choice. Want to start budgeting? Set up your own budget first. Follow the steps below to set up your own budget: Make a list of your values. Write down what matters to you and then put your values in order. Set your goals. Write down your goals. Think about what you want to accomplish financially in the next three months, the next year, and the next three years. Determine your income. Figure your available income. Do not include overtime pay, because you shouldn’t rely on that as regular income. Determine your expenses. Review your checkbook, credit card statements, store receipts, and so on. Find out where is your money really goes? “Fixed expenses,” such as a rent, auto, or student loan payments, are easy to determine. “Flexible expenses,” such as food, clothing, and entertainment, vary from month to month. Don’t forget about money spent on taxes or insurance, which is billed quarterly, semi-annually, or yearly. Create your budget. Think of your budget as a “spending plan”, a way to be aware of how much money you have, where it needs to go, and how much, if any, is left over. Your budget should meet your "needs" first, then the “wants” that you can afford. Your expenses should be less than or equal to your total income. If your income is not enough to cover your expenses, adjust your budget by deciding which expenses can be reduced. Then how to stick to your budget? Pay yourself first! Saving is a very important part of protecting yourself financially. Save as much as you can every month. Even a small amount can make a big difference if you keep it up. A great goal is to establish an emergency savings fund large enough to cover three to six months of your living expenses. After you have an emergency fund, your savings can go toward meeting your goals. Check back periodically. Be sure to review your budget regularly. Does the plan still meet your needs and help you achieve your goals? If not, make some adjustments or create a new budget that better meets your needs. 21. Which is the best title for this passage?

The Future of Work Is Rich in Technology（长篇阅读题） A) We check e-mail as soon as we reach home, and take a look at our inboxes along the way. We respond to calls, texts, and messages even while on vacation. At work, we use Cisco Telepresence(远程呈现) or Skype to discuss with colleagues all over the world. Companies often allow employees to work from home for one or two days a week; some let them live in remote locations. This has all become the norm. A decade ago, we could not have imagined being always on, always connected, with work following us wherever we go. B) This is just the beginning. The nature of work itself is changing for knowledge workers. During this decade, location will cease to be a barrier; many types of work will be done as micro-tasks; and we will be cooperating in new ways. What will be most problematic is that our employers will make even greater demands on us and further intrude (侵入) into our lives. This is the future we are headed into, whether we like it or not. C) For our grandparents, "work" was almost always in a factory or on a farm. Today, the farm and factory jobs are performed by a decreasing minority. There are still many jobs in the services sector that require physical work. But increasingly our workforce is performing tasks that are done with the mind that require knowledge and skill. These knowledge jobs can be assisted by technology. D) Note how accounting firms routinely outsource (把……外包) boring work, as do lawyers, and as do doctors, for tasks such as medical transcription. Not long ago, small and mid-sized projects were outsourced through Web sites---not just to India but also to remote workers in the United States and Europe. A micro-task economy is now flourishing on some sites, in which smaller tasks are farmed out. Big and small tasks such as data handling, Web site development, design, and transcription are commonly done by workers in diverse locations. Crowdsourcing (众包) is making it possible for work to be done simultaneously (同时的) by many people -no matter where they are. E) Businesses are beginning to do this as well. Rather than locking workers in departmental silos (筒仓), companies on the cutting edge are encouraging employees to start communicating with each other on internal social-media sites. What used to be the quarterly e.-mail from the CEO has become a kind of information-sharing within companies---at all levels. Companies will start designing and developing new products and services by engaging their entire employee base. F) Telepresence robots are taking video conferencing to a new level. There are several products on the market, such as Beam by Suitable Technologies and Fellow Robots, that allow a screen mounted on a mobile platform to move around the office and experience what is happening in a more human way. Imagine walking into your boss’s office while you are at home, stepping into a conference room to join a meeting, or chit-chatting with your peers around the water fountain. Next generation video-conferencing technologies such as Mezzanine by Oblong Industries are using multiple screens and spatial user interfaces (界面) to allow people in different locations to cooperate and share electronic information in a science fiction-like setting. G) We can expect Google Glass-type devices to bring the computer display to our body---so that we view the screen on our glasses and don't need to sit at a desk any more. I expect future versions to provide 3D experiences that simulate the holodecks (全景操作平台) we saw in Star Trek. And who knows, we may well have holodecks that make it feel as though we are together---but that is getting too far into the future. During this decade, we'll have to settle for 2D interfaces and 3D simulations. H) This is all exciting and terrifying enough. But what worries me is the intrusion (侵入) that companies will increasingly make into our lives and the exhaustion we will suffer from always being at the call of our employers. I know from personal experience how hard it is to turn off e-mail and disconnect from social media. This will only get worse for all of us as we become more connected. I) And then there will be demands by our employers for us to better manage our lifestyles---so that they can reduce their health bills and get more out of us. Just as companies reward workers who join health clubs and stop smoking, we will see them making greater demands. They will be able to measure what we do because we will increasingly be wearing biometric (生物计量的) -monitoring devices such as the Nike FuelBand and Fitbit Flex and our smartphones will be adding new sensors. The new generation of sensor-based devices will continually gather data about our movement, heart rate, weight, sleep, and other health-related matters and upload these to the cloud. Before giving you more sick leave, employers will probably demand that you improve your lifestyle and habits. J) All of this may seem like science fiction, but it isn't. The future is happening faster than we think and changing important parts of our existence.
