14、TION 2: READING TEST （30 miniutes） In this section you will read several passages. Each one is followed by several questions about it. You are to choose ONE best answer, （A）, （B）, （C） or （D）, to each question. Answer all the questions following each passage on the basis of what is stated or implied

15、in that passage and write the letter of the answer you have chosen in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET.Question 1-5On the worst days, Chris Keehn used to go 24 hours without seeing his daughter with her eyes open. A soft-spoken tax accountant in Deloittes downtown Chicago office, he ha

16、ted saying no when she asked for a ride to preschool. By November, hed had enough. “I realized that I can have control of this,” he says with a small shrug. Keehn, 33, met with two of the firms partners and his senior manager, telling them he needed a change. They went for it. In January, Keehn star

17、ted telecommuting four days a week, and when Kathryn, 4, starts T-ball this summer, he will be sitting along the baseline.In this economy, Keehns move might sound like hopping onto the mommy trackor off the career track. But hes actually making a shrewd move. More and more, companies are searching f

18、or creative ways to saveby experimenting with reduced hours or unpaid furloughs or asking employees to move laterally. The up-or-out model, in which employees have to keep getting promoted quickly or get lost, may be growing outmoded. The changing expectations could persist after the economy reheats

19、. Companies are increasingly supporting more natural growth, letting employees wend their way upward like climbing vines. Its a shift, in other words, from a corporate ladder to the career-path metaphor long preferred by Deloitte vice chair Cathy Benko: a lattice.At Deloitte, each employees lattice

20、is nailed together during twice-a-year evaluations focused not just on career targets but also on larger life goals. An employee can request to do more or less travel or client service, say, or to move laterally into a new rolechanges that may or may not come with a pay cut. Deloittes data from 2008

21、 suggest that about 10% of employees choose to “dial up” or “dial down” at any given time. Deloittes Mass Career Customization （MCC） program began as a way to keep talented women in the workforce, but it has quickly become clear that women are not the only ones seeking flexibility. Responding to mil

22、lennials demanding better work-life balance, young parents needing time to share child-care duties and boomers looking to ease gradually toward retirement, Deloitte is scheduled to roll out MCC to all 42,000 U.S. employees by May 2010. Deloitte executives are in talks with more than 80 companies wor

23、king on similar programs.Not everyone is on board. A 33-year-old Deloitte senior manager in a southeastern office, who works half-days on Mondays and Fridays for health reasons and requested anonymity because she was not authorized to speak on the record, says one “old school” manager insisted on sc

24、heduling meetings when she wouldnt be in the office. “He was like, Yeah, I know we have the program, “she recalls, “but I dont really care.”Deloitte CEO Barry Salzberg admits hes still struggling to convert “nonbelievers,” but says they are the exceptions. The recession provides an incentive for com

25、panies to design more lattice-oriented careers. Studies show telecommuting, for instance, can help businesses cut real estate costs 20% and payroll 10%. Whats more, creating a flexible workforce to meet staffing needs in a changing economy ensures that a company will still have legs when the market

26、recovers. Redeploying some workers from one division to anotheror reducing their salariesis a whole lot less expensive than laying everyone off and starting from scratch.Young employees who dial down now and later become managers may reinforce the idea that moving sideways on the lattice doesnt mean

27、 getting sidelined. “When I saw other people doing it,” says Keehn, “I thought I could try.” As the compelling financial incentives for flexibility grow clearer, more firms will be forced to give employees that chance. Turns out all Keehn had to do was ask.1. The author used the example of Chris Kee
