Family-friendly walks

PADLEY GORGE

Next to Grindleford Station, eight miles north of Bakewell, lies Padley Gorge. Trails are kept as natural as

possible---it's more a case of finding the gaps in the woods than following a path.

LONGSHAW ESTATE

The 1.7-mile walking route around this National Trust estate skirts the upper end of Padley Gorge. People love

the stepping stones, but Longshaw is mostly all about the giant fallen trees, left in place for little hands and feet to

delightfully climb over.

HIGGER TOR

A pile of giant rocks dominates Higger Tor, the best of several lookouts along the Ringinglow Road between

Hathersage and Sheffield. Walk through the nearby fields, then let the kids climb over hundreds of strangely

smooth grey stones. The views out over the Hope Valley are great and impressive, and the rock pools in Burbage

Brook are perfect for rowing in.

STANAGE EDGE

Popular with rock climbers, this stone cliff marks the boundary of the mysterious land of the Dark Peak cliff

and the grass-covered flat land of White Peak. It's a six mile circular walk from Hathersage. Alternatively, park at

the Hollin Bank Car Park and climb half a mile to the top, out of breath.

CHATSWORTH ESTATE

A three-mile circle from Calton Lees Car Park takes in a ruined factory, the pretty village of Edensor and

views of Chatsworth House. Appreciate the stretch along the River Derwent---deer often hang out there.

Few parts have reached the same heights in television as James Gandolfini's Tony Soprano. The Sopranos was

appointment TV series, and 13 years after the series ended. The Many Saints of Newark, a promising film, will be

shown to the audiences this fall, with Michael Gandolfini succeeding his father as a young Tony.

"My dad didn't want me to see Tony Soprano---the violence, the angry, the mean. Of course I was on set and

would visit him when he was free, but I had never watched I never knew Tony Soprano. I only knew my

dad."

Michael spent summers with his dad on the Jersey Shore. "Because he was beloved down there. I would get

jobs I was unqualified for at only eight years old, like working at a body shop." When Michael was 14, his father

died of a heart attack while on vacation in Rome.

A football injury sent Michael to try out for high school plays. "I'd gone to acting to get myself through after

my dad passed away. Honestly, I didn't like it at first, but it brought something out." Two managers took a chance

and sent him to his first-ever acting. They called the next day: "You're the right one!" He played Joey Dwyer and

calls it "an incredible time of failing and learning and getting my sea legs."

"It was really hard to watch my dad," he says. "I recorded four hours of his long speeches with Melfi and

walked around New York with them constantly, constantly, constantly playing in my ear."

Three months later, he got the offer. In Cherry, Michael plays the hometown friend of Holland's bank robber

with PTSD. "Not playing the Italian New York kid, having them believe in me and allow me to

（创伤后应激障碍）

play such a complicated, beautiful role was such a gift." Looking back, he says, "My dad constantly told me, if I'd

ask a question about acting, 'I'm not your acting coach. I'm your dad,' which I really appreciate now."

During the COVID-19 pandemic, technologies are playing a crucial role in keeping our society functional in a

time of lockdowns and quarantines

（封锁和隔离）

. And remote work may have a long-lasting impact beyond

COVID-19.

Many companies have asked employees to work from home. Remote work is enabled by technologies

including virtual private networks

（

VPNs

, voice over internet protocols'

（

VoIPs

, virtual meetings, cloud

technology, work collaboration tools and even facial recognition technologies that enable a person to appear before

a virtual background to preserve the privacy of the home. In addition to preventing the spread of viruses, remote

work also saves commute time and provides more flexibility.

Yet remote work also imposes challenges to employers and employees. Information security, privacy and

timely tech support can be big issues. Remote work can also complicate labor law issues, such as those associated

with providing a safe work environment and income tax issues. Employees may experience loneliness and lack of

work-life balance. If remote work becomes more common after the COVID-19 pandemic, employers may decide to

reduce rents and hire people from regions with cheaper labor costs.

Laws and regulations must be updated to accommodate remote work, and further psychological studies need

to be conducted to understand the effect of remote work on people.

Further, not all jobs can be done from home, which creates disparity. According to the US Bureau of Labor

Statistics, about 25% of wage and salary workers worked from home at least occasionally from 2017 to 2018.

Workers with college educations are at least five times more likely to have jobs that allow them to work from home

compared with people with high school diplomas. Some professions, such as medical services and manufacturing,

may not have the option at all. Policies with respect to data flows and taxation would need to be adjusted should the

volume of cross-border digital services rise significantly.

28

．

Why is remote work especially important during COVID-19?

A

．

It saves time.

C

．

It saves money.

B

．

It blocks viruses.

D

．

It preserves privacy.

29

．

What is the purpose of the third and fourth paragraphs?

A

．

To emphasize importance.

B

．

To sadden employers and employees.

C

．

To demonstrate challenges.

D

．

To compare benefits and drawbacks.

30

．

The underlined word in the last paragraph can be replaced by ________.

A

．

gaps

C

．

options

B

．

challenges

D

．

prejudices

31

．

What is the author's tone when talking about remote work?

A

．

Critical.

C

．

Subjective.

B

．

Objective.

D

．

Suspicious.
