Martin:
I work not because I like it but that I have to, so I often count the minutes until stopping work or holidays. However, my sister is totally different. She enjoys her work so much that she often spends extra time on her job even takes work home with her. I think she is so crazy about work just as some people are about drugs or alcohol. I could hardly understand it.
Joseph:
Work is a core element of our lives. It gives us a sense of identity in the larger world outside the personal circle of family and friends. However, there are some people for whom work occupies an even more central place in their lives. Workaholics are a stereotype of modern life, and they are both praised and criticized. On the one hand, it may be the accepted way of earning promotion. On the other hand, workaholics are often viewed as neglecting aspects of life such as family and leisure that are important for maintaining a healthy equilibrium.
Malcolm:
In cities, workaholism is so common that people do not regard it as unusual. I think workaholics prefer to work rather than do anything else because they don’t know how to kill time if they don’t work. They can only get pleasure from work. Work is everything for them.
Emily:
Workaholism is dangerous in a sense because it can cause some problems. First of all, workaholics often have health problems because they don’t have time to relax and keep themselves occupied all the time. Secondly, their family life is not happy since they spend little time with their family. Their marriage may even end in divorce.
Linda:
Being a workaholic can mean you achieve great things, but more people achieve great things without being addicted to work. Workaholics need time away from work and when I say "away from" I mean psychologically distanced from it as well as physically. If you are still obsessing about work when you should be focused on your loved ones or an outside of work activity then you are still basically working.
Now match the name of each person to the appropriate statement.
Note: there are two extra’statements.
Statements
[A]If you don’t get rid of workaholism, you may get ill.
[B]To get promotion, you need to be a workaholic.
[C]Workaholics’ behaviors are hard to understand.
[D]Workaholics had better have some time with no work.
[E]Workaholics don’t know how to enjoy themselves except working.
[F]It’s hard for workaholics to be away from work psychologically.
[G]Some people appreciate those who pay almost all their attention on work.
Linda
选项
答案
D
解析
Linda对于工作狂的看法主要体现在第二句“Workaholics need time away from work and when I say”away from “I mean psychologically distanced from it as well as physically.”由此可知,她认为工作狂们需要一些时间远离工作,故D选项“工作狂们最好能够拥有一些没有工作的时间”与文章表达相符,为正确答案。
