    17．As anyone who freelances（做自由职业）knows，there are lots of advantages of working at home alone．But there are drawbacks too，like the potential loneliness．No wonder co-working spaces are becoming so popular：they permit self-employed individuals to feel like they are part of all office environment，while making them get some work done too．But renting a co-working space does cost money．
    Now a Swedish project is aiming to change that by turning people's under-used homes into temporary co-working spaces，available to freelancers for free．Hoffice was started by freelancers Christofer Gradin Franzen and Johline Zandra about a year ago in Stockholm when they invited a few people into their home office to work together．It was a great success，and the project has since spread to a number of cities in Europe，North and South America，Australia，India and Japan．Anyone can sign up and offer their home space as a free co-working space，or go find a Hoffice near them．
    On a Hoffice day，everyone arrives and starts work at a certain hour．After 45 minutes，everyone gets up to take a break，stretch，do qigong or yoga for 10 to 15 minutes．Afterwards，people can gather around again，and re-state their intentions and goals for the rest of the work day，as a way to motivate I each other．Meals can be eaten together at a certain hour，potluck-style（家常饭）or by bringing your own lunch．
    This process creates an encouraging and supportive work environment．As some freelancers describe，"By working at Hoffice，we give ourselves and each other the gift to spend our days in a social working environment，where we are extremely productive without ignoring our other human needs．We also make sure to give us and each other what we need to feel calm，happy，inspired and creative during the working day．"
    So Hoffice is not just about sharing space； it's also about a free exchange of ideas．And perhaps the best thing is that Hoffices are free to use．

    4．Hoffice was started toB
    A．change people's attitude to work
    B．provide a co-working space for free
    C．improve people's working conditions
    D．encourage people to be more social
    5．What's the main idea of Paragraph 3？D
    A．How people respond to Hoffice
    B．What Hoffice means to people
    C．What people share at Hoffice
    D．How a Hoffice day works．
    6．Some freelancers'descriptions of Hoffice suggest that theyC
    A．work longer than before
    B．can't be separated from each other
    C．benefit a lot from the working style
    D．expect more people to join them
    7．What do we know about Hoffice according to the text？A
    A．It has been popular in many countries for many years
    B．It has created many new job opportunities
    C．It focus on ont only environment but also human needs
    D．It is suitable for people from all walks of life．

    分析 本文主要介绍了Hoffice，一种新的工作模式．

    解答 4．B 细节理解题．由第二段Now a Swedish project is aiming to change that by turning people's under-used homes into temporary co-working spaces可知，Hoffice的出现是为了提供集体工作的场所．故选B．
    5．D 段落大意题．由第三段On a Hoffice day及之后，可知，本段主要介绍了一天之中Hoffice是如何工作的．故选D．
    6．C 推理判断题．根据有些自由职业者的描述，他们在Hoffice这种环境下工作，效率很高，精神高涨，应该很有收获．故选C．
    7．A 细节理解题．根据第二段信息可知，Hoffice这种工作模式自创建之初就受到欢迎，已经传播到世界许多城市．故选A．

    These books have many advantages．One of them is that we can find a variety of topics，such as science，culture and history．（高分句型一）These topics，I think，are very popular with us students．What's more，along with the texts there are many beautiful and colorful pictures，which can help us understand English better．（高分句型二）Even the students who used to dislike English have turned out to be interested in the subject．（高分句型三）However，some of the texts have too many new words and expressions which are hard for us．Therefore，I'd like to suggest changing them into easier ones．

    Best regards，

    9．Conventional wisdom is a major barrier to innovation （创新）that threatens the survival of companies everywhere．It's based on the assumption that old ideas will always work，so they shouldn't be challenged．While this may be a valid assumption in situations that don't change，it's unlikely to hold true in a changing situation．In today's rapid changing global environment，old methods often don't work，and stubbornly using them can lead to major problems．
    Most people seem to agree with conventional wisdom because it gives one a false sense of security．If everyone else believes it，then it must be true．Individuals who use conventional wisdom are certain that they are right，and being right is good．They want to continue using old ideas rather than take risks with changes that might not work．In 1977，Ken Olsen，co-founder and CEO of Digital Equipment Corporation （DEC），stated'There is no reason for any individual to have a computer in his home．"Despite being a dominant leader in the computer industry，DEC no longer exists．People seem to forget that since innovation is a change，there can be no innovation without change．Unfortunately，conventional wisdom prevents leaders，followers and companies from changing and therefore innovating．If companies don't innovate，but their competitors do，the future is likely to be problematic．Breaking from conventional wisdom has led to many of the most innovative companies and products in history across many industries，so it has a powerful effect on business success．
    Ted Turner （founder of CNN）knew little，if anything，about the news business，but he knew it was inconvenient to watch news only at the dinner hour，as was common before CNN．Turner's solution was to create a cable channel dedicated to news 24 hours a day．The news establishment reflected conventional wisdom at the time，and predicted his idea would fail because no one wanted to watch the news all day．However，it doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand that viewers don't have to watch the news all dav for the CNN to work．Viewers just have to watch when they want to get information．Due to conventional thinking，the critics failed to recognize the opportunity that was clear to Ted．They assumed that only what was familiar to them could work in the future．
    Conventional wisdom prevents creativity，flexibility and risk-taking，so unconventional leaders enthusiastically break from it．To survive，thrive and maintain competitive advantage，companies must be flexible when reacting to change．

    51．The author's attitude to conventional wisdom isA．
    A．disapproving B．approving C．supportive D．indifferent
    52．DEC has disappeared probably becauseB．
    A．the consumers didn't like its products
    B．the CEO stuck to the conventional ideas
    C．the leaders lacked the sense of security
    D．the employees took many risks with changes
    53．The founding of CNN is used as an example to proveB．
    A．missing opportunities could lead to failure
    B．changing could contribute to business success
    C．watching news at the dinner hour is convenient
    D．conventional wisdom influences business success
    54．What does the underlined part probably mean in Paragraph 3？D
    A．Rocket scientists can ensure the CNN works properly．
    B．Most of the viewers don't like to watch the news at work．
    C．Ifs necessary to understand when people watch the news．
    D．It's easy to know people needn't watch the news all the time．
    55．The passage is mainly written to tell us thatC．
    A．old methods are changing with time
    B．opportunities lead to business success
    C．conventional wisdom limits innovation
    D．successful companies need wise leaders．

    （36）B You can see or do something a million times，but you can only see or do it for the first time once．As a result，first time experiences usually leave a deep mark in our minds for the rest of our lives．So try to experience something different and you'll have more memories!
