American suffers from an overdose of work.【1】who they are or what they do, they spend【2】time at work than at any time since World WarⅡ. In 1950, the US had fewer working hours than any other【3】country. Today, it【4】every country but Japan, where industrial employees log 2,155 hours a year compared【5】1,951 in the US and 1,603【6】West employees. Between 1969 and 1989, employed American【7】an average of 138 hours to their yearly work schedules. The work-week【8】at about 40 hours, but people are working more weeks each year.【9】, paid time off — holidays, vacations, sick leave —【10】15 percent in the 1990s.
As Corporations have【11】stiffer competition and slower growth in productivity, they would【12】employees to work longer. Cost-cutting layoffs in the 1980s【13】the professional and managerial ranks, leaving fewer people to get the job done. In lower-paid occupations,【14】wages have been reduced, workers have added hours【15】overtime or extra jobs to【16】their living standard. The Government estimates that more than seven million people hold a second job.

选项
A、advanced
B、industrialized
C、developed
D、mechanized
答案
B
解析
语义衔接题。本题要为country选择一个定语。首先可以排除[D]mechanized“机械的,死板的”,其不能用来修饰国家;而[A]advanced与[C]developed在修饰country的时候,都表示“发达国家”;文中给出的年代1950年是一个关键信息点,因为在那个时候,对欧美国家多以“工业化国家”来指代,所以[B]industrialized“工业化的”最能衔接文意。
