Last year,61 companies in the Uk took part in the world's largest test of a four- day work week. The results were so positive that 92% of the companies were planning to keep the new schedule.
In much of the world, a five- day work week, usually from Monday to Friday is common. But in some places, people are trying out the idea of paying workers the same amount for working just four days a week.
The idea isn't new, but businesses have been slow to try it. They may be worried that they would get less work for their money, or that it could cause other problems. But the results of last year's experiment suggested the move might be good for both businesses and workers.
Last June,61 UK companies agreed to try giving their workers a four- day work week. In return, they asked their workers to try to do as much in four days as they usually did in five days.
Many different kinds of businesses took part, including online stores, computer technology companies, advertising companies, and even a fish restaurant. Some companies were small, while others had around 1,000 workers.
The companies found different ways of giving workers one more day off. Most companies simply gave workers Fridays off. Others chose Mondays, or had different workers take different days off. The experiment ran for six months, and turned out to be good for most businesses.
The number of days when workers were out sick dropped by 65%. On average,57% fewer people quit their jobs during the four- day work week trial. What's more, the companies made more money- about 1.4% on average.
How did workers do more in less time? Some companies cut meetings, or made sure they were shorter. Others used technology to help workers get more work done quickly . Some companies created a " focus time" so workers could work on just one thing without being disturbed.
In general, workers said the four- day work week made them feel less tired. About 71% said they felt less " burnt out" with their new work hours, and 39% said they felt less stressed. Most of the workers were more satisfied with the time they spent working.
11.What is the world's largest test about?
A.Paying workers more.
B.Having more workdays.
C.Having fewer workdays.
12.What is TRUE about the 61 UK companies?
①They tried their best but in the end, they failed.
② They took part in the test of a four- day work week.
③ Their workers did less in four days than what they did in five days.
④ Their workers tried to do as much in four days as they did in five days.
A.①② B.③④ C.②④
13.What was the most popular way of giving workers one more day off?
A.Giving workers Fridays off.
B.Giving workers Mondays off.
C.Giving workers Tuesdays off.
14.What does the underlined word " disturbed" mean?
A.忽视 B.鼓励 C.打扰

【点评】考查阅读理解。本文主要考查细节理解题、词义猜测题和推理判断题这三种常考题型。细节理解题要根据题目所问,回到文章中定位相关信息,将定位到的信息与题目中的选项进行对比,找出与题目所问相符的选项。词义猜测题可在语境中寻找与目标词汇相关的线索,如近义词、反义词、同义词替换、解释性语句等。推理判断题要根据文章中的信息和逻辑关系,进行推理和判断,得出答案。
11.细节理解题。根据原文Last year, 61 companies in the UK took part in the world's largest test of a four-day work week.可知,这个测试是关于四天工作周的,即减少了工作日,故答案为C。
12.细节理解题。根据原文Last June, 61 UK companies agreed to try giving their workers a four-day work week. In return, they asked their workers to try to do as much in four days as they usually did in five days.可知,这些公司参加了四天工作周的测试,并要求工人在四天内完成和五天一样多的工作,选项②(他们参加了四天工作周的测试)和④(他们的工人试图在四天内完成和五天一样多的工作)与原文相符,故答案为C。

14.词义猜测题。根据原文Some companies created a 'focus time' so workers could work on just one thing without being disturbed.可知,without being disturbed是一个否定短语,用来描述专注时间的特点,即在这个时间内,工人不会被某种状态所影响,因此可以推断disturbed在这里应该是一个与专注(focus)相反的状态,即打扰,故答案为C。
15.推理判断题。A:Impossible不可能的;B:Successful成功的;C:Difficult困难的。根据原文The number of days when workers were out sick dropped by 65%. On average, 57% fewer people quit their jobs during the four-day work week trial. What's more, the companies made more money—about 1.4% on average.可知,这次测试在多个方面都取得了积极的结果,包括员工病假天数减少、离职率降低以及公司收入增加。因此可推断,这次测试是成功的,故答案为B。
