Surfing the Internet for fun will make you a better employee,according to an Australian study.
The University of Melbourne study shows that people who use the Internet for their own reasons at work are about 9 percent more productive than those who do not. Study author Brent Coker said, “Surfing the Internet at times helps increase an employee’s attention.”
“People need to relax for a bit to get back their attention,”Coker said on the university’s website. “Having a short break,such as a quick surfing of the Internet,helps the mind to rest itself,leading to a higher total Internet attention for a day’s work, and as a result, increases productivity(生产效率),” he said.
According to the study of 300 workers,70 percent of people who use the Internet at work surf the Internet for their own reasons during office hours. Among the most popular surfing activities are searching for information about products,reading online news,playing online games and watching videos. “Firms spend a lot of money on software to block their employees from watching videos,using social networking sites or shopping online,”said Coker. “That’s not always a good idea.”
However,Coker said the study looked at
B. Not everyone surfs the Internet for fun during office hours.
C. Surfing the Internet for fun during office hours increases productivity.
D. The Internet is becoming more and more important int people’s lif e.
2. According to Paragraph 3,Brent Coker would most probably agree that _______.
A. the longer a person’s mind rests,the better attention he will have
B. surfing the Internet is the best way to increase productivity
C.workers should have a long break during office hours
D.workers should let their minds rest now and then
3.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as one of the most popular surfing activities?
A. Watching videos. B. Reading online news.
C. Reading online novels. D. Playing online games.
4. The underlined word “block” in Paragraph 4 means “________”.
A. prevent B. cycle C. burst D. breathe
5. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Spending too much time surfing the Internet reduces productivity.
B. Those who never surf the Internet have the lowest productivity.
C. Most people don’t surf the Internet in moderation during office hours.
D. People should spend as little time as possible surfing the Internet.

A 10-year-old boy decided to learn judo(柔道)despite the fact that he had lost his left arm in a car accident.
The boy began lessons with an old Japanese judo teacher.The boy was doing well,but he couldn’t understand why,after three months of with only one move?”
The teacher answered, “First,you’ve almost mastered one of the most difficult throws in all of judo. Second,the only known defense for that move is for your opponent to grab your left arm.” Title training,the master had taught him only one move.
“Master,”the boy finally said, “shouldn’t I be learning more moves?”
“This is the only move you know,but this is the only move you’ll ever need to know,”the teacher replied.
Not quite understanding,but believing in his teacher,the boy kept training.
Several months later,the teacher took the boy to his first tournament.
Surprising himself, the boy easily won his first two matches. The third match proved to be more difficult,but after some time,his opponent became impatient and charged;the boy skillfully used his one move to win the match. Still amazed by his success,the boy was now in the final.
This time,his opponent was bigger,stronger, and more experienced. For a while,the boy appeared to be overmatched.Concerned that the boy might get hurt,the judge called a time-out. He was about to stop the match when the teacher appeared.
“No,”the teacher insisted, “Let him continue.”
Soon after the match continued,his opponent made a mistake:he dropped his guard. Instantly,the boy used his move to pin him. The boy won the match and the tournament. He was the champion.
On the way home,the boy and the teacher reviewed every move in each and every match. Then the boy got up the courage to ask what was really on his mind.
“Teacher,how did I win the tournament
