5- Read the following passage and then answer the questions:
Would you like to be a teleworker? Teleworkers are people who work for companies, but not in companies. That is to say, they do company work at home, usually on computers
Teleworkers communicate with their bosses by telephone or fax. Some companies also give videophones to their teleworkers so they can see work colleagues when they speak to them.
Teleworking is becoming more and more popular for many reasons. The biggest advantage for companies is that teleworking reduces the companies' running costs. Having fewer employees at work means less office space. Also, computers are now quicker and easier to use, and the price keeps going down . For a company which needs more workers, one of the cheapest solutions can be to train employees in computer skills and to give them a personal computer to use at home.
However, before you apply for a job as a teleworker, you should ask yourself if it is really the best situation for you. Bill Smith, who works for a big company, hasn't enjoyed his last three months at home. "I often fall asleep at the computer because I don't have anybody to talk to," he says. 'So at lunchtime, I often go to the nearest cafeteria and then the afternoon is gone!' Next week, he's starting a new job in a company where there are five people in a small office. 'I can't wait!' he says.
A. Answer the following questions:
1-Why do some companies like to employ teleworkers?
2- If you get the chance, would you like to work as a teleworker? Why? Why not?
3-How do teleworkers usually communicate with their bosses and colleagues?
