资料：It’s almost considered sacrilegious today to leave work at the end of your workday or（for shame！）on a Friday and simply not check your work email again until you return the office during normal working hours。

The constant need to check email is the trade-off the modern workforce has made for the ability to work anytime，anywhere，hanks to smartphones and tablets that keep us always connected。

But three university researchers have found that it’s not just doing a bit of work after hours that cause burnout。The true culprit is actually the constant worrying about off-hour email。

A new study。“Exhausted But Unable to Disconnect，”by Lehigh University’s Liuba Belkin，Virginia Tech’s William Becker and Colorado State University's Samantha Conroy shows that employees are growing exhausted by the expectation that they will always be available，never knowing what kind of work requests will be asked of them off hours。

Typically，companies don’t mean to stress employees out like that。Most companies don't have formal policies that say people must answer work emails after-hours，（except，perhaps，in cases where an employee is on call during specific times）。

But policies and culture tend to be two different things。If supervisors routinely email employees after hours and expect a fast response （often because their supervisors are doing the same to them），then the message is clear: whenever the boss emails，the employee is expected to be available。

The solution is for bosses to tell employees that an after-hours email doesn’t necessarily require a response before the next work day，and to also set some times when after-hours emailing is considered acceptable and prohibited，such as no emails via the dinner hour，on weekends，or after 10 p.m.，the researchers say。

What would you do if you were the policy maker of a company？

A.To require an instant respond for after-hour emailing
B.To abandon after-hour emailing
C.To tell employees that an after-hours email doesn’t necessarily require a response
D.To limit the time of after-hour emailing

本题考查细节理解。

【关键词】would you do；the policy maker of a company；policy maker

【主题句】最后一个自然段The solution is for bosses to tell employees that an after-hours email doesn't necessarily require a response before the next work day， and to also set some times when after-hours emailing is considered acceptable and prohibited， such as no emails via the dinner hour， on weekends， or after 10 p. m， the researchers say. 研究人员说，解决办法是老板告诉员工，下班后的电子邮件不一定需要在下一个工作日之前回复，还可以设置下班后哪些时段发邮件是允许的，哪些是禁止的，比如在晚餐时间、周末或晚上10点之后不发送电子邮件。

【解析】题目意为“如果你是一家公司政策制定者，你会做什么？”选项A意为“要求及时回复邮件。”；选项B意为“放弃下班后邮件”；选项C意为“告诉员工下班后的邮件不一定要回复。”；选项D意为“限制下班时间的电子邮件。”结合主题句，故选D。
