听力原文： Nowadays more and more people have to spend lengthy hours before computers. Computers are almost indispensable to modern life. No one can imagine the results if the computer he uses daily would break down. (26) But computers also cause some problems. Among them is the potential harm to human bodies, especially to eyes.

Working long hours at a computer can cause eyestrain. Recently a letter to the New England Journal of Medicine provides one explanation for the problem. Japanese researchers studied some 50 office workers who spent an average of three hours a day at a terminal. (27) Since blinking keeps eyes moist-thus reducing strain-the researchers counted blinking rates under different conditions. The workers averaged 22 blinks a minute when relaxed, ten blinks a minute while reading a book and just seven a minute while reading text on a computer screen. Thus people keep the least moisture in their eyes when they are working at a computer and feel more strained. Furthermore, the computer workers also kept their eyes open wider, which meant moisture evaporated more quickly.

(28) If you work at a computer screen, close your eyes periodically. That spreads a tear film and rests your eyes. And remember to blink more often. In this way you can reduce the side effect caused by using computer to a greater extent.

26. What is the result of using computer in our daily life？

A．Doing potential harm to human bodies.

C．Reducing the working hours to three hours a day.

听力原文： Flexible working hours were invented in Germany in the late 1960s, but reached Britain in 1972. The system allows workers to start and finish work whenever they want, with only two requirements. These are: firstly, that all workers must be present for certain "key" times in the day, and secondly, that all workers must work the agreed total number of hours per week.

The system has proved an almost total success wherever it has been tried. A survey of 700 workers on flexible hours showed three main advantages: a better balance between working and private life, avoidance of the need to travel during rush hours and the ability to be able to finish a certain task before leaving.

From the employer's point of view, the system tends to increase productivity, reduce labor turnover first. "Flexible time" was mainly confined to white-collar workers, but it is now being applied to manual workers too.
