Passage FourEqual pay for equal work is a phrase used by the American women who feel that they are looked down upon by the society. They say it is not right for women to be paid less than men for the same work.People who hold the opposite opinion(mainly men)have an answer to this. They say that men have more responsibility than women; a married man is expected to earn money to support his family and to make important decisions, and therefore it is right for men to be paid more. There are some people who hold even stronger opinion than this and are against married women working at all. When wives go out to work, they say, the home and children are given no attention to. If women are encouraged by equal pay to take full-time job, they will be unable to do the things they are supposed to. Women are best at making a comfortable home and bringing up children. They will have to give up their present position in society."This is exactly what they want to give up, "the women who disagree say. "They want to escape from the limited place which society expects them to fill, and to have freedom to choose between a job and home life, or a mixture of the two. Women have the right of equal pay and equal opportunities."These women have expressed their opinions forcefully by using the famous saying, "All men are created equal." They point out that the meaning of this sentence is "all human beings are created equal."48. The women use the phrase "equal pay for equal work" to demand that______.A. women's work shouldn't be harder than men'sB. men should be paid less than womenC. people doing harder work should earn moreD. men and women should be paid the same amount of money for the same work

THIS IS A COMMON BARRIER I RUN INTO WHEN I WRITE ABOUT MAKING POSITIVE LIFE CHANGES:PEOPLE DON"T HAVE TIME TO PURSUE THEIR DREAMS.PEOPLE DON"T HAVE TIME TO EXERCISE.PEOPLE DON"T HAVE TIME TO GET ORGANIZED.WELL, IT"S TIME TO MAKE TIME.BY USING SOME COMBINATION OF THE FOLLOWING, YOU CAN FREE UP AN HOUR OR MORE A DAY.FIND THE ONES THAT WORK FOR YOU (NOT ALL WILL WORK FOR EVERYONE), AND THEN CARVE OUT THAT HOUR A DAY.THEN MAKE SURE YOU USE THAT EXTRA HOUR A DAY IN THE BEST WAY POSSIBLE—BOOK THAT HOUR ON YOUR CALENDAR FOR SOMETHING YOU REALLY, REALLY WANT TO DO, WHETHER THAT"S WORK ON A GOAL, WRITE A BOOK, START A BUSINESS, EXERCISE, READ MORE, OR WHATEVER.DON"T SQUANDER THIS GIFT OF TIME! 【A1】______ WHETHER IT"S EXERCISE OR WORKING ON SOME OTHER GOAL, MAKE AN APPOINTMENT TO DO IT RIGHT WHEN YOU GET OUT OF WORK (AT 5 P.M., FOR EXAMPLE).THIS WORKS ESPECIALLY WELL IF YOU HAVE TO MEET SOMEONE ELSE, SUCH AS A WORKOUT PARTNER OR OTHER GROUP OR TEAM OR COACH OR PARTNER, YOU"LL BE SURE TO MEET THE APPOINTMENT, WHICH MEANS YOU WON"T STICK AROUND WORK TOO LONG, AND YOU"LL BE SURE TO FINISH ALL YOUR TASKS ON TIME SO YOU CAN LEAVE ON TIME.THIS MAKES YOU MORE EFFICIENT IN THE AFTERNOON ESPECIALLY. 【A2】______ I"M NOT SAYING THESE TYPES OF INSTANT COMMUNICATION DON"T HAVE THEIR USES, BUT IF THEY"RE ALWAYS ON AND YOU"RE ALWAYS AVAILABLE, YOU"RE ALWAYS AT THE MERCY OF OTHERS.

I MEAN, THE STUFF YOU HAVE TO DO OR YOUR JOB WOULD FALL APART IF YOU REALLY THINK ABOUT IT, A LOT OF THE TASKS YOU DO EACH DAY (AND PHONE CALLS AND EMAILS, MENTIONED ABOVE, ARE INCLUDED IN THESE TASKS) DON"T REALLY NEED TO BE DONE EACH DAY.SOMETIMES YOU CAN DO THEM LESS OFTEN, SOMETIMES YOU DON"T NEED TO DO THEM AT ALL.IF YOU CAN LEARN TO FOCUS ON YOUR CORE ACTIVITIES, YOU CAN GET YOUR WORK DONE IN LESS TIME. 【A5】______ ONE OF THE BIGGEST GROUPS OF TIME EATERS IS REQUESTS FROM OTHER PEOPLE.ALL DAY LONG WE GET REQUESTS, IN PERSON, ON THE PHONE, IN EMAIL, THROUGH PAPERWORK.MEETINGS, ASSIGNMENTS, REQUESTS FOR INFORMATION, REQUESTS TO BE ON A COMMITTEE OR TEAM...THESE ARE ALL REQUESTS THAT WILL EAT UP YOUR TIME.SAY NO TO ALL BUT THE ESSENTIALS.GET TO THE POINT. WHILE I"M A FAN OF LONG, SLOW CONVERSATIONS, IF YOU"RE TRYING TO MAKE TIME FOR GOALS, YOU NEED TO WHITTLE DOWN NEEDLESSLY LONG CONVERSATIONS—ESPECIALLY IF IT"S JUST WITH A COWORKER WHO ISN"T A CLOSE FRIEND.IN PERSON OR ON THE PHONE, YOU NEED TO GET STRAIGHT TO THE POINT WITH A MINIMUM OF CHIT-CHAT, AND IF THE OTHER PERSON ISN"T GETTING TO THE POINT, POLITELY ASK WHAT HE NEEDS FROM YOU.
共用题干第一篇Don't Be WorkaholicWorkaholic and working hard are quite different.Working hard involves being organized,focused,getting a lot of work done,knowing when to stop,and having a life other than work.Workaholics,on the other hand,are often disorganized,always find reasons for working more,feel lost without work to do,hide from problems through work, don't know how or when to relax,bring work home from the office,can't communicate well with fellow workers and family members and have unbalanced,one-dimensional lives.Workaholics,like those who are constantly drunk,suffer from a controlling habit,usually defined as compelling behavior despite negative consequences.They are sometimes pushed into their habit by their work beliefs,by workaholic role models,and by a work system that automatically sanctions workaholism,Despite lip service to the contrary,most employers want loyal employees who work longer hours,rewarding them with higher pay and better benefits.In many companies,workers unwilling to burn the midnight oil are at risk.Certainly,they hazard their jobs by working normal hours.Americans tend to become trapped in a working and spending consumption mode,driven by merchants,that leads them to rack up their expectations.According to some psychology counselors,workaholism can be both good and bad for us.It can fuel a sense of self-worth and accomplishment. And we get paid for it and praised for it,which produces good feelings we may not necessarily be able to attain in other parts of our lives.What does the word"sanctions"mean in paragraph 3?A:Forbids. B:Encourage.C:Approve. D:Interdicts.

资料：It’s almost considered sacrilegious today to leave work at the end of your workday or（for shame！）on a Friday and simply not check your work email again until you return the office during normal working hours。The constant need to check email is the trade-off the modern workforce has made for the ability to work anytime，anywhere，hanks to smartphones and tablets that keep us always connected。But three university researchers have found that it’s not just doing a bit of work after hours that cause burnout。The true culprit is actually the constant worrying about off-hour email。A new study。“Exhausted But Unable to Disconnect，”by Lehigh University’s Liuba Belkin，Virginia Tech’s William Becker and Colorado State University's Samantha Conroy shows that employees are growing exhausted by the expectation that they will always be available，never knowing what kind of work requests will be asked of them off hours。Typically，companies don’t mean to stress employees out like that。Most companies don't have formal policies that say people must answer work emails after-hours，（except，perhaps，in cases where an employee is on call during specific times）。But policies and culture tend to be two different things。If supervisors routinely email employees after hours and expect a fast response （often because their supervisors are doing the same to them），then the message is clear: whenever the boss emails，the employee is expected to be available。The solution is for bosses to tell employees that an after-hours email doesn’t necessarily require a response before the next work day，and to also set some times when after-hours emailing is considered acceptable and prohibited，such as no emails via the dinner hour，on weekends，or after 10 p.m.，the researchers say。What can be inferred from the first paragraph？A.It’s a shame if you check your email all the time.B.The employees are willing to leave work at the end day of the workday.C.The employees are expected to answer emails although it’s not working time.D.Work email is the essential part in worker’s daily life.
