[主观题] 【补充段落】Why Employees Want Hybrid Work
Hybrid work is a big departure from the traditional work model. It is a flexible approachthat allows employees to split their time between working in the office and working fromhome. Employees see the values in hybrid work. A survey conducted with WakefieldResearch shows that almost half of employees would likely look for another job if theiremployer doesn't offer a flexible work model. Therefore, it's no surprise that data from ourmost recent survey shows that 77% of companies have already opted to go hybrid. What'smore, 56% of those companies are allowing employees to choose when and how often theywish to come into the office. So, what attracts employees to a hybrid work mode1?
_____________
In addition to a better work-life balance，another value of hybrid work models is toreduce exposure to illness. The last two years have made some people nervous to embracebusy spaces again. In fact，87% of employees said last year they were worried about theirhealth and safety when it came to returning to work.Hybrid working means fewer people inthe workplace at one time. This lowers the chance of a sick employee infecting others.And since people have the option to work remotely under most hybrid work models，a sickemployee can stay home altogether to protect their coworkers.
Finally，employees can choose to work when and how they're most efficient. In anoffice-first model，people are expected to be on the clock between 9 am and 5 pm everyworkday. In a hybrid work model，employees have more flexibility to get work done whenand where they're most productive. This means flexible schedules and locations. For example,some people work best early in the morning while others do better in the evening. They canalso choose to work with teammates on-site or work from a remote location.
In conclusion, hybrid work can help employees strike a better balance between work andlife, become less exposed to illness， and work more efficiently than traditional office-basedwork models. Employees can alternate between home and the office seamlessly in a hybridwork model—-without a dip in productivity. The hybrid model is no longer an alternative styleof work. It's here to stay. Companies today must meet the needs of their workforce or risklosing talent to employers that do.

What Is a Rodeo?
“Rodeo” is a Spanish word meaning ‘‘gathering place or marketplace for cattle.” A rodeo itself is a competitive contest based loosely on traditional cowboy skills of riding and roping．It consists of six major events：riding an untamed horse in a saddle；riding an untamed horse without a saddle；riding a bull；roping a calf；wrestling a bull to the ground；racing horses around barrels with women riders. A rodeo is perhaps the most genuinely American of all sports．
The first rodeo took place following a cattle roundup in the 1880s．From this informal cowboy pastime，a colorful spectacle has evolved that contains many familiar American elements--the exciting action of bucking horses and bulls，the explosive masculine environment，the hot dog stands，beer barrels，boots，jeans，and cowboy hats．
Today, most rodeos are staged in a large，flat arena that is fenced off to protect the viewing public．Grandstands are erected on two sides of the arena；on the other sides are places to hold the horses，calves，and bulls．Nearby are narrow chutes from which animals are released into the arena．On a platform a loudspeaker system is set up for the announcer, who introduces the riders and comments on the events as they happen．Near the arena are refreshment stands where people gather to buy food and drink. Portable rest rooms are set up near the grandstand，and an ambulance is parked nearby in case of an accident.
An opening parade of proud riders on proud horses usually begins a rodeo；the performers carry flapping national and state flags．Then the two-act performance begins．Calf roping and bull wrestling are timed events．In the fastest possible time，a man must rope and throw to the ground a calf and tie three of its feet together．In bull wrestling，the object is to tumble the bull onto its back with its head and all its feet in line．Calf roping has been done under fifteen seconds，and a bull has been wrestled in less than ten seconds．
When riding an animal，a contestant mounts before the chute gates are opened．The rider must stay on the bucking animal for eight seconds；points are given for the performance of both the animal and the contestant．In all riding events，the contestant is disqualified if he touches the animal with his free hand．
Probably the most difficult rodeo feat is Brahman bull riding．During this event, a rodeo comes to resemble a circus because gaily-costumed clowns come into the arena to distract the bull’s attention from fallen riders．To stay on a bucking bull for as long as eight seconds is one of the most challenging tasks in a rodeo. Spectators eagerly wait for this event．
The present circus extends far beyond the region where the contests first developed．Now rodeos are popular throughout the western half of the U．S．A．and in major eastern and southern cities．Australia also stages these events．One of the biggest rodeos of all is held during the annual Calgary Stampede in Calgary, Canada．

Attaining Success in College
Succeeding in college is not only important to getting and education, but also crucial in this day and age to success in the work place. To me, the three most important things for attaining a successful college experience are having smart classroom conduct, taking advantage of campus resources, and making college the first priority.


Making good use of campus resources is also of great importance to college success. The school library has many resources for the growth of the students’ mind. With computers and copy-machines for individual use, computer labs and writing labs are there not just for learning purposes but also for actual help with writing papers. The “office hours” will help the students build a close relationship with their professors and give them access to the professors’ mind. From the professors the students can acquire possible extra information that may put them ahead of their study. All these resources are free, since they are funded by student tuitions. So taking good advantage of the resources can only make the students’ education more attainable.
Finally, any students who want to assure success must establish school as the top priority. Personally I have watched some students slowly loosen up; I have seen a pattern of partying and a lack of motivation. Many of the freshmen have no idea why they are in college, and their “eyes” often tell it all. This world is so rich in distractions that it is hard to keep a strong focus, especially if one is just starting his or her academic career. It is said that the first semester is often the most “unsuccessful” one. This certainly rings true for me. I made mistakes in this regard and eventually learned that, to achieve success, school must always be placed above other things.
In my college experience, I have observed and learned how to achieve success. I wish someone had told me earlier the importance of having that smart classroom conduct, of fully utilizing the school resources, and of making college my top priority. Then, my college beginnings would not have been so rocky and tough.

3、[主观题]I．Supply the missing paragraph(20 points)
The following passage is incomplete with one body paragraph missing．Study the passage carefully and write the missing paragraph in about 100 words．Make sure that your tone and diction are in unity with the passage provided．
The Breakdown of Communication
It is commonly acknowledged that language problems make communication between people from different cultures difficult．Because of the language barriers，people cannot express their feelings clearly to each other．However, communication problems also exist between individuals from the same culture．Although they have the same cultural background，they sometimes cannot understand each other well．Communication between individuals breaks down because of many factors．The most significant ones include personality, age difference and competition between individuals．
Personality has a great influence on communication between people．First, the sharing of common interests is often essential for initiating communication． If two people hold completely different attitudes，it will not be easy for them to start communicating with each other．Second，the willingness to express their feelings and opinions freely is needed if meaningful communication is to be developed．Some people do not want to talk about controversial subjects, fearing that this will hurt their relationship with friends. Instead, they keep their discussion of topics at a very superficial level，which prevents them from knowing and understanding each other. The lack of understanding leads to unsuccessful communication. It is clear that personality, to some extent，affects the initiation and maintenance of communication.

Although age difference gives rise to communication problems between two generations，competition poses an even greater problem when people are about the same age．Intense competition in the modern world creates tremendous pressure on people．In order to get ahead in a career or in school, people tend to devote most of their time to working，studying，or other activities that enhance their prospects for the future．As a consequence，they have little inclination to communicate with others. They are anxious about their achievements because those are the measures of success in life. So, keen competition also discourages people from having a good understanding of each other.
Communicating with other people involves much effort because people’s personality, the generation gap and keen competition bring about potential problems. These problems are constantly with us, and any of them may lead to a breakdown in communication between individuals.
