[ 2 ]More and more companies are allowing their office workers to in the United States. The change from formal to casual office wear has been gradual. In the early 1990s, many companies allowed their employees to wear casual clothes on Friday. This became known as “dress-down Friday” or “casual Friday”. “What started out as an extra one-day-a-week benefit for employees has really become an everyday thing.” said business consultant Maisly Jones.
[ 3 ]Why have so many companies started allowing their employees to wear casual clothes? One reason is that it’s easier for a company to attract new employees if it has a casual dress code. “Many young people don’t want to dress up for work”, says the owner of a software company, “So it’s hard to hire people if you have a conservative dress code”. Another reason is that people seem happier and more productive when they are wearing comfortable clothes. In a study 85 percent of employers said that they believe that casual dress improves employees’ motivation. Only 4 percent of employers said that casual dress has a negative influence on productivity. Supporters of casual office wear also argue that a casual dress code helps them save money. “Suits are expensive, if you have to wear one every day”, one person said, “For the same amount of money, you can buy a lot more casual clothes”.

解析
试题分析：小题1:根据I need to feel comfortable因为他愿意自己舒服。故用Because they make him feel comfortable/at ease when working。
小题2:根据One reason is that it’s easier for a company to attract new employees if it has a casual dress code. “Many young people don’t want to dress up for work .Supporters of casual office wear also argue that a casual dress code helps them save money.穿便装可以省钱，提高职工的积极性，使职工高兴，能够吸引员工，使员工工作效率提高了。故用1)Saving employees’ money 2)Improving employees’ motivation 3)Making employees happy 4)Attracting employees 5)Making employees more productive(写上其中三条即可)
小题3:根据The change from formal to casual office wear has been gradual. 可知员工穿着便装去上班，故用wear casual clothes to work/work(go to work)in casual clothes(或类似表达，语法结构须正确)
小题4:根据Many young people don’t want to dress up for work”, says the owner of a software company, “So it’s hard to hire people if you have a conservative dress code”.似乎每个人都需为了工作而这样穿着打扮，故用It means that everyone should dress up for work. (或类似表达，语法结构须正确)
小题5:根据段落大意可知主要叙述的是为什么公司允许员工穿着便装上班。故用1) Two main reasons are given to explain why companies allow their employees to wear casual clothes when working.
2) Why companies allow their employees to wear casual clothes when working.
3) The reasons for employees to wear casual clothes when working.

The study of 3,000 women aged between 18 and 65 also found that. four out of ten admitted they were unable to keep a secret—no matter how personal or secret the news was. It was also found that alcohol usually gives us a helping hand to let out secrets—with more than half admitting a glass or two of wine could get them to dish the dirt.
Michael Cox, UK Director of Wines of Chile, said, “It’s official that women can’t keep secrets. We are really eager to find out with this survey how many secrets people are told. What we don’t count on（指望）is how quickly these are passed on by those we trust. No matter how precious the piece of information is, it often comes out within 48 hours.”
Three quarters say they are able to keep quiet about a secret, and 83 percent consider themselves 100 percent reliable within each group of friends. Yet, four in ten admit to gossiping to a close friend from another friendship group. Nearly half（45 percent）disclose secrets just for the weight to be lifted from their shoulders. More than four in ten think it is acceptable to share a friend’s secret with someone who doesn’t know him or her.
Private issues, true cost of purchases and affairs emerged top of the secret-keeping list, with girls most likely to share a secret chatting face-to-face, on the phone or via a text message. Fortunately, over a quarter（27 percent）said they forgot what they were told the following day.

Before you argue with your boss, check with the boss’s secretary to determine his mood. If he ate nails for breakfast, it is not a good idea to ask him for something. Even without the boss’s secretary, there are keys to timing: don’t approach the boss when he’s on deadline; don’t go in right before lunch, when he is apt to be distracted and rushed; don’t go in just before or after he has taken a vacation.
If you’re mad, that will only make your boss mad. Calm down first. And don’t let a particular concern open the floodgates for all your accumulated frustration. The boss will feel that you think negatively about the company and it is hopeless trying to change your mind. Then, maybe he will dismiss you.
Terrible disputes can result when neither the employer nor the employee knows what is the problem the other wants to discuss. Sometimes the fight will go away when the issues are made clear. The employee has to get his point across clearly in order to make the boss understand it.
Your boss has enough on his mind without your adding more. If you can’t put forward an immediate solution, at least suggest how to approach the problem. People who frequently present problems without solutions to their boss may soon find they can’t get past the secretary.
To deal effectively with a boss, it’s important to consider his goals and pressures. If you can put yourself in the position of being a partner to the boss, then he will be naturally more inclined to work with you to achieve your goals.
小题1:Paragraph 2 ______
小题2:Paragraph 3 ______
小题3:Paragraph 4 ______
小题4:Paragraph 5 ______
| A. Keep Your Voice Low All the Time B. Put Yourself in the Boss’s Position C. Propose Your Solution D. Don’t Go in When You Are Angry E. Make the Issue Clear F. Never Give in |

| A. to give the boss your advice B. how he is feeling C. the boss may have D. what you really want to talk to him about E. without suggesting a way to solve it F. how unhappy you are |
