The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention【C3】______40.6 million American workers, or 30% of the【C4】______workforce, don’t get enough rest. People【C5】______up for work but operating at low levels. A 2012 University of Southern California study of young investment bankers suggested that punishing hours【C6】______to physical and emotional ailments(疾病)within four years on the job. The risks of【C7】______in professions like health care and manufacturing are especially【C8】______, which involve overnight shifts and【C9】______a single careless error can put lives【C10】______danger.

They are【C12】______up to the problem of sleep deprivation,【C13】______in sleep-hygiene(卫生)programs and struggle to【C14】______exhausted workers. "Nowadays, the line between work and what’s outside of work is【C15】______. But if we treated machinery like we treat the human body, there would be【C16】______all the time," said James Maas, a former Cornell University psychologist. "People in investment banking have been my main【C17】______for the last few years because they’re so【C18】______and under so much pressure," said Mr. Maas, adding that bankers【C19】______don’t want to hear about how to get more sleep.

【C8】
选项
A、acute
B、amazing
C、agreeable
D、alert
答案
A
解析
形容词辨义题。前面提到,美国国民劳动力的30%都没有得到充分的休息,此处特别指出了医疗和制造行业,因此acute“严重的”符合文意。amazing“令人惊异的”;agreeable“令人愉快的,和蔼可亲的”;alert“警惕的,警觉的”,均不符合文意,故排除。
