问题     Most workers spend eight or nine hours on the job. They work【C1】________it’s unavoidable. They need to make enough money for【C2】________, food, rent, clothing, transportation, tuition, and so on. They spend about one-third of their lives【C3】________work. But they hate it. They complain and【C4】________the minutes until quitting time each day or the days until their next vacation.
    【C5】________, there are other workers that either love to work or addicted【C6】________work. Sometime it is not easy to【C7】________between the work lover and the work addict or workaholic. Although the work lover may spend many extra hours on the job each week and often take work home, he or she does not regard work as the only【C8】________of self-esteem and satisfaction in life. Workaholics, on the other hand, become so emotionally【C9】________on their work that without it they are【C10】________of functioning.
    Real workaholics would rather work than【C11】________anything else. They probably don’t know【C12】________to relax; that is, they might not enjoy movies, sports or other types of entertainment. Most of all, they【C13】________to sit and do nothing. The lives of workaholics are usually【C14】________, and this tension and worry can cause health【C15】________such as heart attacks or stomach ulcers (溃疡).【C16】________, typical workaholics don’t pay much attention to their families. They spend little time with their children, and their marriages often end【C17】________divorces.
    In extreme situations, workaholics do not even know how not to work.【C18】________for example, the case of the hundreds of people in New York City who even try to go to work in the famous blackout of 1977. There was no electricity—no air conditioner, elevators or lights—but these workaholics went to their offices【C19】________They sat impatiently on the steps outside their office buildings and did paperwork or had business meetings.
    In some urban centers, workaholics are so common that people do not consider it【C20】________; they accept the lifestyle as normal. Government workers in Washington D. C., for example, frequently work sixty to seventy hours a week. They don’t do this not because they have to; they do it because they want to.
【C13】

选项 A、like
B、tend
C、hate
D、dislike

答案C

解析 考查动词辨析。句意:最重要的是,他们不愿意坐在那里无所事事。like意为“喜欢”;tend意为“倾向”;hate意为“憎恨”;dislike意为“不喜欢”。文章前面说工作狂比起世界上的其他任何事情更喜欢工作,所以选择hate会比dislike更适合。故选C。
