Questions 29-30 are based on the following text.
 

    If you had your choice, would you rather sit in an office all day to make a living or work from the comfort of your own home? Nowadays, more and more businesses are allowing employees to work at least part of the week from home. The idea of "telecommuting" is not that new and for many, it has been technically possible since the internet became widely accessible. Some employers, however, have been less willing to allow the practice for fear that employees who were not being watched would become lazy and undisciplined. Actually, recent evidence has shown that these fears are mostly unwarranted and that businesses can actually save a lot of money on rent by converting more of their staff over to telecommuters.

    In a normal telecommuting situation, a worker will be given assignments and asked to complete them or report on them, as in any other office job. The major difference is that most communication is done using the telephone, email and instant messaging. Some employers allow workers to choose which hours they will work; others require them to be online during a normal work day. Either way, most telecommuters have the freedom to work from home, or wherever else they would like.

    Yet telecommuters often find that their freedom comes with a cost. Those who work outside the office may discover that their employers are more willing to ask them to work long or strange hours. In situations where there are other family members at home, it can be difficult to keep work life and home life separate. Other chores around the house can also serve as distractions, and there is the matter of getting office supplies like printers and desks. Working at a coffee shop or a library may be a solution, but some locations put time limits on Internet use. Sometimes employees actually take a room in their house and convert it over to a home office - this can be quite helpful in creating an ideal working environment and provides the added benefit of a few dollars back in the bank when tax time comes around.
