Working at home in your nightclothes while saving hundreds of dollars may sound too good to be true, but it isn’t. More and more employees are telecommuting, doing their job at home or another remote site.
"It’s a trend that’s here now and you’re going to see a lot more telecommuting because people don’t have to put up with commuting (来回上下班). They want more work/life balance, they want less stress in their lives and companies want to drive costs after their bottom lines," says John Edwards, President of the International Telework Association and Council.
However, Edwards says, "The biggest problem at the moment is dealing with middle management who is uncomfortable with management style focusing on results. They are used to the line of sight management style. But they have to change to more results-oriented management style which can often be slightly opposite, so they feel uncomfortable with that."
Edwards says telecommuting kills distance--and a lot of face to face meetings are replaced by tele-conferences. "Distance does not exist anymore. It’s the death of distance, if you like. So now it’s possible to have more invisible teams so that the necessity to have the old bricks and walls existing is beginning to disappear."
According to the writer, telecommuting refers to the way ______ .
选项
A、people do all their work by telephone
B、employees wear nightclothes while working
C、people do their work outside companies
D、employees communicate with each other
答案
C
解析
推理判断题。本题询问根据作者的说法,远程工作是指什么。文章第一段第二句话的后半部分是对前半句中的提到的远程工作的解释,远程工作即人们在家里或其他遥远的地方工作,由此可推知远程工作是人们不在公司进行的工作方式,故选项C为正确答案。选项A(人们通过电话进行工作的方式)和选项D(员工彼此之间交流的方式)在文章当中没有提到,故为错误选项。选项B(职员穿着睡衣工作)虽然在文章第一段第一句话中提到过,但这只是远程工作时的一种可能的情形,说法不够全面,故应排除。
