In general,our society is becoming one of giant enterprises directed by a bureaucraticmanagement in which man becomes a small,well-oiled cog in the machinery.The oiling is donewith higher wages,well-ventilated factories and piped music,and by psychologists and“human-relations”experts;yet all this oiling does not alter the fact that man has become powerless。that hedoes not wholeheartedly participate in his work and that he is bored with it.In fact,the blue andthe white-collar workers have become economic puppets who dance to the tune of automatedmachines and bureaucratic management.
The worker and employee are anxious,not only because they might find themselves out of ajob;they are anxious also because they are unable to acquire any real satisfaction or interest in life.
They live and die without ever having confronted the fundamental realities of human existence asemotionally and intellectually independent and productive human beings.
Those higher up on the social ladder are no less anxious.Their lives are no less empty thanthose of their subordinates.They are even more insecure in some respects.They are in a highlycompetitive race.To be promoted or to fall behind is not a matter of salary but even more a matterof self-respect.When they apply for their first job,they are tested for intelligence as well as for theright mixture of submissiveness and independence.From that moment on they are tested again andagain--by the psychologists,for whom testing is a big business,and by their superiors,who judgetheir behavior,sociability,capacity to get along,et@C@This constant need to prove that one is as goodas or better than one’s fellow-competitor creates constant anxiety and stress,the very causes ofunhappiness and illness.
Am I suggesting that we should return to the preindustrial mode of production or to nineteenthcentury“free enterprise”capitalism?Certainly not.Problems are never solved by returning to astage which one has already outgrown.I suggest transforming our social system for a bureaucraticallymanaged industrialism in which maximal production and consumption are ends in themselves into ahumanist industrialism in which man and full development of his potentialities--those of love and ofreason--are the aims of all social arrangements.Production and consumption should serve only asmeans to this end,and should be prevented from ruling man.
By“a well-oiled cog in the machinery”the author intends to render the idea that manis______.
选项
A、a necessary part of the society though each individual’s function is negligible
B、working in complete harmony with the rest of the society
C、an unimportant part in comparison with the rest of the society,though functioning smoothly
D、a humble component of the society,especially when working smoothly
答案
C
解析
细节推理题。本题问作者用“机器中润滑良好的小齿轮”想表达什么观点。此处作者把现代社会中的人比作“a well—oiled cog in the machinerv”(机器中润滑良好的齿轮)。暗指人在社会中所发挥的作用如同大机器中的小齿轮一样,虽然发挥功能,但其作用是微不足道的。这与C项意思吻合,故为正确答案。A项“尽管每个人的作用微不足道,人仍然是社会不可分割的一部分”与原文不符:B项“人与社会的其余部分完全和睦相处”文章中未提到:D项“人是社会中一地位卑贱的零件.特别是工作顺利的时候”与内容不符。
