It’s 13:30 and 28-year-old Marten Pella 's smart phone starts pinging, a signal that it’s time for us to stop
working around his living room table and instead start our workout routine together. A cartoon character wearing
bright red shorts on video begins instructing us to do star-jumps and sit-ups around his apartment.
Pella, a research assistant at Stockholm University, is part of the Hoffice movement, which invites
workers-freelancers（自由职业者）or full-time employees who can do their jobs remotely—to work at each other’s
homes to increase productivity and enjoy an active social life.
Those attending Hoffice events advertised on Facebook are typically asked to work silently in 45-minute
blocks, before taking short breaks together to exercise, or simply chatting over a coffee. In addition, each
participant shares daily objectives with the rest of the group upon arrival, and is invited to report back on whether
or not they have achieved them at the end of the day.
“Often when I am alone, I can work focused for a couple of hours but then I’m easily distracted（分心）.The
help of others makes me so much more disciplined.” says Pella, who attends Hoffice events as both a guest and a
host. Lunches mean networking and connecting with new contacts. “People are coming from really different areas
and have different professions so there can be really interesting discussions,” he says.
The Hoffice movement has grown quickly since it was founded in 2014 by Swedish psychologist Christofer
Franzen, now 37. He had been giving lectures on the benefits of collective（集体的）intelligence, but realised he
was spending most of his own time working alone at his kitchen table. “I wanted to test more structured home
co-working with friends in similar situations,” he says.
Franzen says that holding events in houses and apartments creates a unique atmosphere, because there’s a
sense of community and desire to contribute. He’s looking for ways to expand the social value of Hoffice, by
matching up members with relevant skills to share and even encouraging jobseekers to join its gatherings.
4. Where is Pella when his smart phone starts pinging?
A. In his own home. B. In his office.
C. In another person’s home. D. At Stockholm University.
5. What do people attending Hoffice events do first when they meet?

Getting your kid to bed at night is seriously one of the most challenging things you'll ever have to do. Most
kids are just so full of energy that they'll tire you out before they're halfway through their store of energy. An easy
thing to calm down your child to get into bed is giving in and allowing some iPad screen time. However, it's really
not a great idea, just like you thought.
Researchers at theArizonaStateUniversityconducted a study with 547 kids between the ages of 7 to 9. Their
parents tracked how much screen time the kids were allowed along with their sleep patterns. The study found
that kids who did not engage in screen time before bed slept for 23 more minutes every week and also went to
sleep about 34 minutes earlier than those playing with iPad. Although that might not seem like so much more
