问题     Working at home in your nightclothes while saving hundreds of dollars may sound too good to be true, but it isn’t. More and more employees are telecommuting, doing their job at home or another remote site.
    "It’s a trend that’s here now and you’re going to see a lot more telecommuting because people don’t have to put up with commuting (来回上下班). They want more work/life balance, they want less stress in their lives and companies want to drive costs after their bottom lines," says John Edwards, President of the International Telework Association and Council.
    However, Edwards says, "The biggest problem at the moment is dealing with middle management who is uncomfortable with management style focusing on results. They are used to the line of sight management style. But they have to change to more results-oriented management style which can often be slightly opposite, so they feel uncomfortable with that."
    Edwards says telecommuting kills distance--and a lot of face to face meetings are replaced by tele-conferences. "Distance does not exist anymore. It’s the death of distance, if you like. So now it’s possible to have more invisible teams so that the necessity to have the old bricks and walls existing is beginning to disappear."
We can infer from the last paragraph that ______ .
选项 A、employees hate distance between each other
B、there should be no distance between employers and employees
C、the disappearance of distance improves efficiency
D、telecommuting changes ways of communication
答案D
解析 推理判断题。本题询问从最后一段中我们可以推理得出什么。根据最后一段第一句话的后半部分，网上会议取代面对面的会议，由此可知远程工作可以改变人们的交流方式，故选项D为正确答案。选项A(员工痛恨彼此之间存在的距离)、选项B(雇员与雇主之间不应该存在距离)和选项C(距离的消失提高了效率)不能从文章最后一段中推理得出，故此三项均不符合题目要求。
