The building opens at 7:30 in the morning, and closes at 7 o’clock in the evening for those doing overtime.Under the new system, employees will work a minimum of eight hours, but they will have some choice about when they work. All staff must be at work in the office for a fixed period, from 10am to 4pm, with a total of 60 minutes for breaks. The building will be open between 7am and 9pm, and staff may plan their remaining work schedule to suit themselves, within those hours.We hope that this scheme will benefit employees with young families, and will give everybody the chance to avoid the worst of the traffic. We will try out the scheme for one month, and then we will send out questionnaires to assess employees’ opinions. Naturally it will add to our costs to keep the building open for the extra hours, but we feel this will be a good investment because it will bring benefits to our staff. 29.

Her father works with computers and her mother teaches dance. Chloë began playing the violin when she was two. Her parents bought her a special violin which was small enough for her to use, and, even at this age, she could play without help. Her sister Virginia, who was nineteen at the time, played the piano and after Chloë heard her play something, she tried to play it on her violin. From the age of four, she played at a number of concerts in Britain and America and in 1999 she was a child violinist in the Hollywood film Onegin.Many teachers offered to give Chloë lessons but when she was seven she met Professor Zakhar Bron. She was certain from the beginning that he was the right teacher for her. His work takes him around the world and each year Chloë flies thousands of kilometres to get to his classes.Chloë was only fourteen when she made her first CD, but she says she is just like any other teenager. ‘I have lots of friends and I love pop music. Getting better on the violin is important, but I also make sure I have time for other things.’Example: 0 Chloë’s mother gives dance classes.A Right B Wrong C Doesn’t say Answer:29 Chloë’s first violin was the same size as other violins.
