Telecommuting is a form of computer communication between employees‟ homes and offices For employees whose job involve sitting at a terminal or word processor entering

data or typing reports, the location of the computer is of no consequence If the machine can

communicate over telephone lines, when the work is completed, employees can dial the office computer and transmit the material to their employers A recent survey in USA Today estimates that there are approximately 8,7 million telecommuters But although the numbers are rising annually, the trend does not appear to be as significant as predicted when Business Week published “The Portable Executive” as its cover story a few years ago Why hasn‟t telecommuting become more popular?

Clearly, change simply takes time But in addition, there has been active resistance on the part of many managers These executives claim that supervising the telecommuters in a large work force scattered across the country would be too difficult, or, at least, systems for managing them are not yet developed, thereby complicating the manager‟s responsibilities

It is also true that employees who are given the option of telecommuting are reluctant to accept the opportunity Most people feel that they need regular interaction with a group, and

Trang 4

A of no use B irrelevant C of no good D unimportant

C the lack of interaction D the work place is in the home

Question 32: The word “them” in the second paragraph refers to

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 35 to 42

It is said that George Washington was one of the first to realize how important tire building of canals would be to the nation‟s development In fact, before he became the President, he headed the first company in the United States to build a canal, which was to connect the Ohio and

Potomac rivers It was never completed, but it showed the nation the feasibility of canals As the

Trang 5

country expanded westward, settlers in western New York, Pennsylvania, and Ohio needed a means to ship goods Canals linking natural waterways seemed to supply an effective method

In 1791, engineers commissioned by the state of New York investigated the possibility of a canal between Albany on the Hudson River and Buffalo on Lake Eric to link the Great Lakes area with the Atlantic seacoast It would avoid the mountains that served as a barrier to canals from the Delaware and Potomac rivers

The first attempt to dig the canal, to be called the Eric Canal, was made by private companies but only a comparatively small portion was built before the project was halted for lack of funds The cost of the prospect was estimated $5 million, an enormous amount for those days There was some on-again-off-again federal funding, but this time the War of 1812 put an end to construction In 1817, DeWitt Clinton was elected Governor of New York and persuaded the state to finance and build the canal It was completed in 1825, costing S2 million more than expected

The canal rapidly lived up to its sponsors‟ faith, quickly paying for itself through tolls It was far more economical than any other form of transportation at the time It permitted trade between the Great Lake region and the East coast, robbing the Mississippi River of much of its traffic It allowed New York to supplant Boston, Philadelphia, and other eastern cities as the chief center

of both domestic and foreign commerce Cities sprang up along the canal It also contributed in a number of ways to the Norths victory over the South in the Civil War
