阅读理解     The first weeks were a bit hard.Loneliness wasn"t the problem-I was in constant contact with clients by
email and phone.But I did feel claustrophobic (患幽闭恐怖症的).With wheels on my desk chair and
the refrigerator just two feet away,I could work for twelve straight hours without ever standing up.There
was no physical separation between my living room and work table,so the only way I found to feel like I
was going "home" at the end of the day was to forbid my use of the working chair.At ninethirty at night,
when I turned my computer off,I felt a bit like the family dog reaching the high point of its day,"Whoohoo!
I get to go for a walk!" Then,around eleventhirty,I"d find myself turning on the computer again to solve
some work issue that was preoccupying me...
     At the same time,I discovered that working this way had definite advantages.Not only did I save an
hour from going to work and back home,I also gained a great deal of control over my time.There were
fewer interruptions than in an office,I could schedule meetings and phone calls in blocks to increase the
productive time around them,and the easy access to my workspace late at night and on weekends could
obviously be of mixed effects.This was especially important to me since,in addition to consulting work,I
was writing fiction and planning a new business.Working at home allowed me to manage all of these
activities at once without losing significant sleep.This turned out to be well worth the claustrophobia,which
also faded as I became more used to the new routine.A short walk in the late afternoon could reduce the
shutin feeling and make me get energetic again to work through the evening.
     You might think that,with all this added time flexibility,I would even find a few hours to clean my
apartment,but,unfortunately,this never happened.1.The writer felt claustrophobic because________.A.she was lonely  
B.she worked long hours
C.she couldn"t go for a walk  
D.she worked alone for long2.Where does the writer work?A.In her own home.  
B.In an office.
C.In a hospital.  
D.At a newspaper.3.What does the writer think of working late at night and on weekends?A.It was convenient for her.
B.It had advantages and disadvantages.
C.She didn"t like it at all.
D.She enjoyed working late.4.What"s the writer"s general attitude towards her work?A.She didn"t like it very much.
B.She enjoyed doing her work.
C.It allowed her little spare time.
D.It was too hard for her.
