Most schools undertake programs of group or individual educational support.

　　课后阅读--------A noble gangster 贵族歹徒

　　There was a time when the owners of shops and businesses in Chicago had to pay large sums of money to gangsters in return for 'protection.' If the money was not paid promptly, the gangsters would quickly put a man out of business by destroying his shop. Obtaining 'protection money' is not a modern crime. As long ago as the fourteenth century, an Englishman, Sir John Hawkwood, made the remarkable discovery that people would rather pay large sums of money than have their life work destroyed by gangsters.

　　Six hundred years ago, Sir Johan Hawkwood arrived in Italy with a band of soldiers and settled near Florence. He soon made a name for himself and came to be known to the Italians as Giovanni Acuto. Whenever the Italian city-states were at war with each other, Hawkwood used to hire his soldiers to princes who were willing to pay the high price he demanded. In times of peace, when business was bad, Hawkwood and his men would march into a city-state and, after burning down a few farms, would offer to go away if protection money was paid to them. Hawkwood made large sums of money in this way. In spite of this, the Italians regarded him as a sort of hero. When he died at the age of eighty, the Florentines gave him a state funeral and had a pictured painted which was dedicated to the memory of 'the most valiant soldier and most notable leader, Signor Giovanni Haukodue.'

　　曾经有一个时期,芝加哥的店主和商行的老板们不得不拿出大笔的钱给歹徒以换取"保护"。如果交款不及时,歹徒们就会很快捣毁他的商店,让他破产.榨取"保护金"并不是一种现代的罪恶行径.早在14世纪,英国人约翰.霍克伍德就有过非凡的发现:"人们情愿拿出大笔的钱,也不愿毕生的心血毁于歹徒之手.

　　600年前,约翰.霍克伍德爵士带着一队士兵来到意大利,在佛罗伦萨附近驻扎下来,很快就出了名.意大利人叫他乔凡尼.阿库托.每次意大利各城邦之间发生战争,霍克伍德把他的士兵雇佣给愿给他出高价的君主。和平时期,当生意萧条时,霍克伍德便带领士兵进入某个城邦,纵火烧毁一两个农场,然后提出,如向他们缴纳保护金,他们便主动撤离。霍克伍德用这种方法挣了大笔钱.尽管如此,意大利人还是把他视作某种英雄。他80岁那年死去时,佛罗伦萨人为他举行了国葬,并为他画像以纪念这位"骁勇无比的战士、杰出的领袖乔凡尼.阿库托先生."

　　One­quarter of the US workforce could be doing their jobs at home if all those able to telecommute chose to do so，according to a study on Wednesday which said many still elect to work at the office.

　　All those people working from home could translate into annual gasoline savings of $3.9 billion，according to the National Technology Readiness Survey.

　　But the study also found that about 14 percent of the workforce has the option to telecommute but chooses not to.As the study’s principal researcher，Professor P．K. Kannan，put it：

　　That seems to suggest that even if employers were to say tomorrow that everybody had the option of telecommuting and that it would save a lot of gas，that’s not going to happen.

　　What’s going on？Some of it is obvious：people like to go to the office for social reasons，even if their work tasks don’t require it.And that’s not just to be around other people.Our social needs also include being seen，and making “right” impressions on bosses and colleagues.Our own research at Work Design Collaborative is completely consistent with that interpretation.

　　So how are we actually going to realize the energy­saving opportunities that we’re missing？It seems to me there are two very basic actions called for.

　　First，organizations must make distributed work not only available but expected by more employees.Company policies and financial incentives can easily “push” workers into changing their patterns.Note that I am not advocating making everyone a full­time telecommuter.But just getting half of the workforce to work from home or in a nearby facility two days a week would save 20% of the gasoline now being consumed by moving people from homes to offices.

　　Second，we also need some national public policy initiatives to encourage people to work from home.It’s time to realize just how critical telecommuting and distributed work are to our national security—on several levels.It’s about reducing our dependence on foreign sources of energy.It’s about business continuity in the face of natural disasters(Katrina，etc.) and/or acts of terrorism.And perhaps most importantly of all，it’s about reducing greenhouse gases as we address the global climate crisis I wrote about yesterday in An Inconvenient Truth.

　　16．What can we learn from the first paragraph?

　　A．One­quarter of the US workforce is now doing their jobs at home.

　　B．The people who prefer to work from home can not afford to telecommute.

　　C．Although they can telecommute，Americans still prefer to work at office.

　　D．More and more people who can telecommute prefer to work from home.

　　17．According to the study，people don’t choose to work from home because________.

　　A．the working culture now is still not favorable

　　B．people want to meet their social needs

　　C．people are afraid of falling behind their colleagues

　　D．people can’t work well without teamwork

　　18．According to the passage，the main benefit for people to work from home is that________.

　　A．there would be less traffic jams

　　B．working efficiency could be greatly increased

　　C．the energy­saving opportunities could be realized

　　D．the relation between bosses and workers could be greatly improved

　　19．What’s the author’s attitude towards working from home?

　　A．He thinks it is too early to put it into practice.

　　B．He thinks it is ideal and not practical enough.

　　C．He thinks it is the company’s fault for its delay.

　　D．He is completely in favor of it.

　　20．The underlined word “incentives” in the passage has a similar meaning to________.

　　A．encouragements

　　B．pressures

　　C．crisisD．services

　　I used to be the messiest person alive. Over the years，through watching others and by trial and error，I have finally found ways to come up with plans，organize them and follow through with them.

　　Make an outline of everything you need to have and do to make your plan happen. Make a list of all of the steps that need to be followed and think about what need to be done.

　　Detail everything thoroughly and read it over so you can start coming up with some ways of how to carry out your plans. You should ensure that different ways are needed at hand. Therefore，if for some reason one way doesn’t work，one of the other ones will.

　　Committing yourself to finishing at least part if not all of your plan at once is also necessary. If you make a promise to yourself to finish before a specific time，make sure that you carry that out，and be sure to do everything within the time frame you set for yourself.

　　Don’t try to deal with more things all at a time. All that does is to delay your progress，distract you and make you lose your interest，motivation and energy.

　　Carrying out an effective plan requires being as organized as possible. You will only achieve this by sticking to the order of the plan and not deviating or trying to do more at a time.

　　Last but not the least，you should never give up things mid­project. It will only annoy everyone around you including yourself.

　　So，don’t be afraid of organization. The older we get，the more necessary it becomes to have the skills necessary to follow through with confidence and to be able to carry through plans in an organized and manageable way. It pays to be organized，after all.
