I used to live in the country and our family lived on farming. In spring we could see the crop getting ripe with the passing of time. In the distance from our farm are the blue mountains, that turned golden at sunset. What wonder！Not far away from our house lived an old couple. They always got up earlier and then went for a walk hand in hand. They were never quarreled. With no children lived with them, they took helping others as a way to ease our loneliness. I have been regarding them as my own grandparents gradual and I love them as they do me.

    Your Use of Technology May Be Causing You Pain

Have you ever bent your head down to look at a screen until your neck muscles hurt？1. Tech neck occurs when the use of phones, computers and other technology causes neck pain. It's a common problem, and it's on the rise.

2.They can also move your head around and even stretch it forward for a short amount of time. But bending your head forward for long periods of time can strain your muscles. That can make them sore.

But it's probably not realistic to expect people to give up their phones to avoid tech neck.3. You can do things to avoid tech neck even while keeping your smartphone.

First you can hold your phone up so you don't have to bend down to look at it. But this can be tiring for your arms. So keep your head upright, and look only with your eyes. Try to sit up straight as well.

Also, take breaks.4. If you've been sitting, stand up and walk around. Moving your body will help relax your muscles.

If you continue experiencing tech neck, you can do exercises to strengthen your neck muscles. Tech neck is a common result of using today's technology, but it doesn't have to be.5.

A.In the past people spent most of their time looking up.

B.And giving up technology altogether isn't necessary.

C.If so, you've experienced tech neck.

D.Once in a while, look up from your screen, and roll your shoulders back.

E.They often hold them at waist or chest level.

    Can you really lose your job for posting an opinion on Twitter, or even for clicking "like" on someone else's message？Pascal, an employment lawyer in the Netherlands, assumes that about one in ten laying-off is connected to behavior on social media.

Controversial opinions were once expressed in bars after work, and went no further. Today Twitter and other social media broadcast employees' thoughts, making it easy for anyone offended to put together a revenge（报复）against the poster and their employer.

Though it's not necessarily in companies' interests to allow the free expression of opinion, it's clearly in society's interest. Free speech is the foundation of democracy（民主）. In laying down clear rules, we should remember that offending and harassing（骚扰）are different. It's not reasonable for companies to try to prevent their employees from expressing displeasure at something, no matter how strongly others disagree-at least if that's not relevant to the job they do. But an employee who repeatedly makes unfavorable comments at work has crossed the line into harassment, and this should be grounds for dismissal.

There's also a difference between what people do at work and what they do outside. Speech is like a dress code. Companies can demand that their employees look the part at work. After people go home, though, they should express their opinions freely, just as they're free to change into jeans and T-shirt. A woman fired in 2004 by a housing firm for displaying a sticker backing John Kerry on her car was poorly treated. The situation is more complicated when it comes to public figures such as sports stars, who in effect sell their image as well as their labor.

Firms will try to preserve their freedom, but laws against unfair dismissal that protect speech will help them stand up to complaints from angry people. Geographical and technological spaces are increasingly separated, which makes it important that people tolerate different views at work, especially outside it.

1.What can we infer from Pascal's assumption？

A.Different opinions are tolerated on social media posts

B.Posting an opinion on social media is strictly forbidden.

C.Many employees are fired because of their social media posts.

D.Contradictory opinions can easily invite revenge from others.

A.She did something not proper at work.

B.She made unfavorable comments at work.

C.She shouldn't have used a sticker on her car.

D.She was treated unfairly by her company.

3.Which of the following does the underlined word "this" refer to?

A.Going beyond speech restriction.

B.The freedom of speech after work.

C.Making unfavorable remarks repeatedly at work.

D.Disagreeing with people in the workplace.

4.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage？

A.Speech after Work Shouldn't Cause Unemployment

B.Dress Code Is Different from Expressing Opinions

C.We Should Avoid Offending People in Any Situation

D.Our Speech Should Be Properly Relevant to Our Work
