If you give employees the right to telework, be careful! The very technology that enables working from home could be   1  its value to your company. Although productivity may increase in the short term, working from home may prevent your teams from working   2 .
While remote workers may indeed be happier, more carefree and   3 , that doesn’t mean it’s good for their   4 . A company is more than just the work that needs to be done, plus the workers who are there to do it.
A healthy organization has a   5  that allows the sharing of values and ideas and the   6  
of competitive spirit that allows a company to be flexible and creative.
However, working from home can fail to motivate remote workers in the same way as a/an
  7  company environment. As a result, companies   8  — despite the increases in productivity and happiness that come with teleworking.
In work environments where co-workers socialize and have   9  lunchtime chats, some real learning gets done. A lot of information   10  takes place, which allows the very same workers to increase their   11  to the organization. There is something   12  about spending the time together, about sharing meals, about   13  ideas, and about asking.
Magical or not, the fact remains that teleworking generally doesn’t work well. As technological change   14  and marketplace pressures increase, companies need to become more flexible and creative, just to keep up.
Strange as it sounds, the very technology that made teleworking a real option is now requiring workers to remain in the   15 .

The world has never faced so much trouble before. People are        within themselves about natural resources, territories and especially religions. In my opinion, laughter is a universal language, which has the ability to       humanity without religions. Laughter can build a common connection between various religions and create a new world      . The idea may sound over-ambitious, and maybe it is. But maybe it is not. It is our deep       that laughter and only the laughter can unite the world, holding up a       sense of brotherhood and friendship.
Studies also show that laughter helps your body to do the following: lower blood pressure; lighten depression; reduce stress; work out the heart,       for those who are unable to perform       exercise. So in life, when you can laugh, you should laugh loudly and with your entire body—because it’s good for you.

Maybe you know the saying, “When you point one finger, there are three fingers pointing back to you.” One wise man had a version of this       when he said, “Don't focus on the dust in your brother's eye while       the dirt in your own eye.” Why do we do this? Because criticisms are always        ourselves. When we criticize others, we do not expose them, but expose ourselves. We      our own weakness and smallness.
A story in the old tales       the difference in wisdom between the good and the bad. Once a king        both Nelson and Dick. The king asks Nelson to go out into the kingdom and       after finding someone less qualified than himself. Then he asks Dick to go out into the kingdom and return after finding someone       than himself.
When Fool Dick returns, he tells the king that he couldn't find anyone better than himself.       Wise Nelson says that he was       to find anyone less qualified than himself on his return.
Moral of the story is something about human      . Good people always look at their own       and faults and consider themselves less qualified than others. Whereas bad people always look at the shortcomings and faults of others and       themselves more qualified than others.

Adults are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced in the meantime．A man who has not had an opportunity to go swimming for years can     swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water．He can get on a bicycle after several decades and still       away．A mother who has not      the words or years can teach her daughter the poem that begins " Twinkle, twinkle, little star" or        the story of Cinderella or Snow White ．
One explanation is the law of over learning, which can be stated as following:        we have learned something, additional learning increases the        of time we will remember it．In childhood, we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding long after we have learned them．We continue to listen to and        ourselves of poems such as "Twinkle．twinkle, little star" and childhood tales such as Cinderella or Snow White．We not only learn but
      ．
The law of over learning explains why cramming （突擊學習） for an examination．      it may result in a passing grade, is not a        way to learn a school course．By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is       soon to forget almost everything he learned．A little over learning,       , is usually a good investment toward the future．

There are times when people are so tired that they fall asleep almost anywhere. We can see there is a lot of sleeping on the bus or train on the       home from work in the evenings. A man will be       the newspaper, but seconds later，with his head down, it       as if he is trying to       it . Or he will fall asleep on the shoulder of the stranger       next to him.       place where unplanned short sleep       is in the lecture hall where a student will start snoring（打鼾）so       that the professor has to ask another student to       the sleeper awake. A more embarrassing（尷尬）situation happens when a student starts falling into sleep and the       of the head pushes the arm down off the       , and the movement causes the       of the body to move together and finally he falls down to the floor. The student wakes up on the floor with no       of the reason for getting there. The worst time to fall asleep is when       . Police reports are full of       that happen when people fall into sleep and go       the road. If the drivers are       , they are not seriously hurt. One woman’s car,       , went into the river. She woke up in four feet of       and thought it was raining. When people are really       , nothing will stop them from falling asleep—no matter where they are.

Our teacher asks us to keep a diary in English. I enjoy doing so because I          keeping a diary in English is one of the effective ways to      our English writing ability.
Compared with       forms of writing, it is shorter and       less time. It can help us to       the habit of thinking in English.         we persist in (堅持) this practice, gradually we’ll learn how to express ourselves in English. In keeping a diary in English,         can use the important phrases and sentences we’ve        in or out of English classes to describe our        , and this way we can master and use freely       we’ve learned, which will do good         us in English learning. But      we certainly run up against many difficulties. In the first place, it often happens that we have       finding proper words and phrases to give expression to our mind. Secondly, there        many idiomatic(慣用的) ways of saying things in Chinese. And it is extremely hard for us to put them       English properly.
As far as I am concerned, my suggestion is that we          always have a notebook and a Chinese-English dictionary within easy reach. Whenever         beats （難倒）us, we can first put it down in our notebook and then look it up in our dictionary. We can also turn to our English teacher for          , if necessary.
In short, I believe that it is of          use to keep a diary in English for the development of our          skills.
