阅读下列短文，从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

A

In some big companies, most bosses have lots of rules. The most common rule is to stop the workers from suring the Internet. But according to a new study, workers who are allowed to spend time reading news or chatting with friends online are more productive(有成效的) than those who are stopped from doing so. And the fun time

must be written a reasonable time of less than 20% of their full time in the office.

It seems strange to allow the workers to surf the Internet for fun at work time. But people need to have a short rest to get back their concentration. Think back when we were in school, we had to have ten minutes’ break after a class. That is to say after a short rest we can be more energetic.

For most workers, the work time is longer than a 45-minute class. Looking through the web pages can refresh(使恢复精力) their minds and help them come back to the work at hand with more care. If they are stopped from surfing the Internet, they may be tired so that they couldn’t do the work well.

“Short breaks make the mind rest itself,” said Dr. Coker. But bosses can’t give too much free time, after all, a four-hour game won’t do the company any good. Tell your boss about this to see if he can give you a break during work time.

For the first time in Hong Kong's history, an entertainer(艺人)has been written into middle school textbooks. He is considered one of the best actors in Hong Kong. Yes, he is Chow Yun Fat. The example of his long hard struggle for success has been used in a chapter(章)in a middle school textbook. Using his experience, students can learn to make the most of their time and to grab (抓住)every opportunity to succeed. On hearing about this, Chow said happily, “I really hope that my experiences can make young people understand that one should not be afraid of difficulties and setbacks(挫折), for they are the only way to success.”

Indeed, Chow has travelled a long and difficult path to reach his success. In 1955, he was born into a poor family in Hong Kong. When he was 17, he had to leave school. He worked in a number of jobs—as a postman, camera salesman and taxi driver. These experiences paved the way for him to play all kinds of roles later in life.

Chow broke into the film industry in the late 1970s. He was one of the hardest actors and starred in a number of popular TV dramas and films including “Shanghai Bund” and “A Better Tomorrow”. Since 1985 he has won many awards including Taiwan's Golden Horse Awards and Hong Kong Film Awards .

In 1995 he went to Hollywood. Although he was already in his 40s, he had to learn English. He even put chopsticks in his mouth to practise pronouncing certain sounds. His film, “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon”, began to gain him more fame and recognition around the world. In 1998 the mayor of Chicago set aside January 12 as “Chow Yun Fat Day.”

( )31. Chow Yun Fat has been written into middle school textbooks mainly because . A. he plays best in Hong Kong B. he keeps on struggling for success C. his experiences are very special D. he is well thought of

( )32. Chow Yun Fat felt when he learned that he had been written into middle school textbooks. A. happy B. surprised C. sad D. shy
