The family wh eats tgether
What’s the price f a family meal? Fr many families in the wrld’s wealthiest cuntries, the answer seems t be, ‘t much’. Fr instance, in the United States, (21) _______ is ften a trendsetter in such things, the majrity f families reprt eating a single meal tgether fewer than five days a week. In fact, the frequency f shared meals (22) _______ (decrease) in American families by 33 per cent ver the last twenty years. The meals (23) _______ have shrtened t: frm an average f 90 minutes t just 12 minutes.
S perhaps we’re better ff asking urselves (24) _______ the cst f nt eating tgether is. Once again, we culd turn t the figures. The Organizatin fr Ecnmic Cperatin and Develpment has fund that 15-year-lds wh reprted nt regularly (25) _______ (share) family meals were twice as likely t be absent frm schl.

The time spent tgether ver fd leads t all the psitive utcmes that are measured in the studies. That time spent tgether has less nticeable—but n less real—effects t. S ften, (30) _______ is at the family meal that the family as such — the family as an rganic unit with shared memries and feelings and ambitins — is made.

Hw t wrk frm hme
There are many things that cntribute t becming a successful wrk-frm-hme emplyee. As mre cmpanies acrss nearly every industry accmmdate an increasing number f emplyees wishing t avid traffic jam and ffice cld lunch, remte wrk has becme an increasingly easy and ___31___ practical ptin fr many wh seek it. Here is a mdest guide t becming a successful remte emplyee.
Befre ___32___ cmpletely frm the ffice, check with yur crprate IT department and yur manager t see if yu are equipped with the prgrams and applicatins necessary t wrk remtely. Security first: If yu cnnect t yur cmpany’s internal systems r email thrugh a Virtual Private Netwrk r ther secure tunnel, make sure yu’ve tested it and that it ___33___ frm where yu plan t wrk. Als, have a(n) ___34___ plan in the event yur cnnectin experiences disturbance.
The same advice applies t internet ___35___. I make sure that if the wireless internet in my hme ffice fails, I can still cnnect seamlessly thrugh my smartphne, set up as a Wi-Fi ht spt. T d this, make sure yu have the right wireless plan, especially if yu handle large files.
The ability t cmmunicate quickly and reliably is the mst priceless attribute a remte emplyee needs t succeed. D ___36___ yur manager r bss frequently. Make sure they’re installed and yu knw hw t use them, and make yur ___37___ knwn t yur clleagues when yu are available and wrking.

Find time t g fr shrt walks t help inspire prductivity and creativity. One f the blessings f wrking remtely is the pprtunity t live a mre active lifestyle instead f being ___40___, but it’s imprtant t make activity a habit.
III. Reading Cmprehensin
Sectin A
Directins: Fr each blank in the fllwing passage there are fur wrds r phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the wrd r phrase that best fits the cntext.
Why d s few peple find fulfillment in their wrk? Amy Wrzesniewski, a Yale Schl f Management prfessr wh studies these issues, ffered an explanatin that made a lt f 41 . Students, she said, “think their calling is under a rck, and if they 42 enugh rcks, they will find it.”
Surveys cnfirm that meaning is the tp thing Millennials (千禧一代) say they want frm a jb. And yet her research shws that less than 50% f peple see their wrk as a calling. S, many f her students are left feeling anxius, 43 , and cmpletely unsatisfied by the gd jbs and careers they d secure.
What they—and many f us, I think—fail t realize is that wrk can be 44 even if yu dn’t think f it as a calling. The fur mst cmmn ccupatins in America are retail (零售) salespersn, cashier, fd preparer/server, and ffice clerk—jbs that aren’t typically 45 “meaning.” But all have smething in cmmn with thse prfessins that are, such as teachers and dctrs: They exist t help thers. And as Adam Grant, a prfessr at the University f Pennsylvania, has shwn, peple wh see their wrk as a frm f
46 always rank their jbs as mre meaningful.
That means yu can find meaning in nearly any rle in nearly any rganizatin. 47 , mst cmpanies create prducts r services t fill a need in the wrld, and all emplyees cntribute in their wn ways. The key is t becme mre cnscius abut the service yu’re prviding— 48 and persnally.
Hw? One strategy is t cnstantly remind yurself f yur rganizatin’s main 49 . Life Is Gd is a clthing cmpany best knwn fr clrful T-shirts with stick-figure designs, but its missin is t spread 50 and hpe thrughut the wrld, and that’s smething even strerm emplyees understand. If yu wrk fr an accunting firm, yu’re helping peple r cmpanies with the 51 task f ding their taxes. Each jb serves a purpse in the wrld.
Even if yu can’t get excited abut yur cmpany’s missin r custmers, yu can still adpt a service attitude by thinking abut hw yur wrk 52 thse yu lve. Cnsider a study f wmen wrking in a she factry in Mexic. Researchers fund that thse wh described the wrk as dull were generally less prductive than thse wh said it was 53 . But the effects went away fr thse in the frmer grup wh saw the wrk (hwever bring) as a way t supprt their families. With that attitude, they were just as prductive and 54 as the wrkers wh didn’t mind the task.
Nt everyne finds their ne true calling. But that desn’t mean we’re fated t wrk meaningless jbs. If we 55 ur tasks as pprtunities t help thers, any ccupatin can feel mre significant.

(A)
McCy was lking fr a safe place t d drugs when smething clearly ut f place caught his eye: a luxurius brwn leather handbag.
McCy, 36, culd relate all t well. One f his few pssessins, the sleeping bag he used in an abandned huse, had recently been stlen. Remembering hw angered he’d been by his wn lss, he reslved t return the purse t its wner.
He began right away, starting with the address n the bill fund in the handbag. After traveling much f the day and finally appraching the address n the bill, he was stpped by a wman, wh asked whether she culd buy the purse fund in the handbag. McCy refused, saying he was searching fr its wner. “But I am the wner,” the wman said. “That’s my purse.”
A mnth earlier, Kaitlyn Smith, 29, a sales representative fr a medical device cmpany, had wken up t find her apartment brken int and her purse stlen. Nw she came acrss a tall, messy-lking man hlding it tightly. She culd instantly tell he wasn’t in gd shape.
Smith, amazed this stranger had gne t such great lengths t return her bag, asked whether there was anything she culd d t help. “I’m a drug addict,” McCy warned. “I dn’t want t disturb yur life.” Unafraid, Smith gave him her phne number, saying, “If yu want t g t rehab (戒毒所), call me.” She then drve him back t his neighbrhd and left, thinking that wuld be the end f it. Tw days later, she gt a call.
Smith realized that McCy was serius abut getting better, s she dug int her savings accunt and bught McCy a plane ticket t Flrida. While there, he wuld call her t let her knw hw he was ding. After 28 days at a rehab prgram at Jhns Hpkins Hspital, McCy is drug-free. He lives at a residential recvery center in Baltimre, and a GFundMe page set up by Smith has cvered his rent, grceries, and incidentals.

(C)
A secretive facial recgnitin prgram “culd annunce the end f public annymity(匿名),” said Kashmir Hill in The New Yrk Times. While plice departments have used facial recgnitin tls fr years, they’ve been limited t searching gvernment-prvided images, fr example driver’s license phts. Nw an app called Clearview AI can remve images f faces “frm acrss the internet”—including scial media sites like Facebk and Twitter, emplyment sites, even Venm—gathering a database f mre than 3 billin phts. “Until nw, technlgy that readily identifies everyne based n his r her face has been frbidden because f its invasin f privacy.” Clearview licenses its technlgy t mre than 600 law implementatin agencies. New Yrk City passed n the app after a 90-day test, wrried abut ptential misuse. Clearview’s investrs “predict that its app will eventually be available t the public.” Sn, “searching smene by face culd becme as easy as Ggling a name.”
We’ve been building tward this mment fr a lng time, said Adrian Chen in The Califrnia Sunday Magazine. In the late 1800s, the French plice fficer Alphnse Bertilln devised the first “methd fr identifying criminals based n their physical features,” using 11 physical measurements. But scale changes everything. The Department f Hmeland Security plans t scan “97 percent f all passengers n utging internatinal flights.” And the technlgy has been imprved and cmmercialized t the pint where yu can search a database and buy scans fr as little as “40 cents an image if yu pt fr Amazn’s facial recgnitin sftware plan.”
All this has already led t grwing fears abut facial recgnitin, said Jansch Delcker and Cristian Lima in Plitic.cm, but “effrts t check its spread are hitting a wall f resistance n bth sides f the Atlantic.” A tw-party push t limit the gvernment’s use f facial recgnitin has been delayed in Cngress. The Eurpean Unin (EU) is discussing a five-year temprary ban, but Eurpean privacy rules cntain “a brad carve-ut fr public authrities.” And authrities are using it: Lndn’s plice just last week enabled live facial recgnitin fr cameras acrss the city.
Even if sme bans n the technlgy succeed, said Bruce Schneier in The New Yrk Times, we’re still building an “bservatin sciety.” Facial recgnitin is just ne identificatin technlgy amng many. An entirely unregulated data industry is already creating “descriptins f wh we are and what ur interests are” by tracking ur mvements, purchases, and interactins. “We are being identified withut ur knwledge, and sciety needs rules abut when that is permissible.”
63.S far Clearview’s custmers are ______.
A. investrs f AI appsB. scial media sites
C. small grups f private usersD. gvernment departments
64.By “But scale changes everything.” (paragraph 2), the authr means that ______.
A. facial identificatin technlgy has gne far beynd its riginal purpse
B. peple shuld be scanned thrugh mre available physical measurements
C. brder security inspectin has brught cmmercializatin f identificatin sftware
D. widespread cheap images are becming a drawback fr facial recgnitin technlgy
65.What can be inferred frm the passage?
A. Rules cncerning anti-invasin f privacy are practicable arund the wrld.
B. Facial recgnitin technlgy is t irresistible t set aside fr gvernments.
C. Effrts t stp misuse f facial identificatin have achieved an initial success.
D. Prhibitin n identificatin technlgy has gained supprt frm gvernments.
66.Which f the fllwing is the best title f the passage?
A. Facial recgnitin is under cntrlB. Get yur facial identificatin ready
C. Yur face is nw public prpertyD. Establish a larger face database
