Despite the presence of workaholics, there is a growing realization in the United States that too much work demand can be physically and mentally harmful, Many people have been rebelling against the work ethic, claiming that no job is so important as to damage personal relationships and rob people of relaxation. There has been a shift in values, with more emphasis being given to personal relationships and relaxation. Leisure time provides opportunities to find personal satisfaction and freedom from the routine of work.
Increased leisure time in the United States has not altered the idea that work and play are distinct activities. This distinction is clear-cut; there are "work-hours" and "afterwork-hours". There is a belief that it is desirable "to work hard and play hard" and undesirable to combine the two. In many offices, stores, and factories, socializing among employees is discouraged. An employee under pressure at work often cannot afford to respond to social calls and visits.
However, the amount of personal contact on the job depends on the nature of the work. There may be more social interaction between teachers in a school than between scientists doing independent research. Nevertheless, work and play are usually perceived and maintained as separate activities.
Questions:
32. What is the result of too much work demand?
33. In order to rebel against the work ethic, what do many people believe now?
34. What do people expect an employee under pressure at work to do?
35. What does the speaker imply by saying "the distinction is clear-cut"?
选项
A、Work and play are different activities.
B、Work and play should be combined together.
C、People should play more and work less.
D、People should work more and play less.
答案
A
解析
推理判断题。文中clear—cut一词出现前有work and play are distinct(不同的)activities,之后又出现了work-hours and afterwork—hours和to work hard and play hard等词句,同时文章的最后一句提到work and play are usually perceived and maintained as separate activities(工作和生活被人们认为是不同的活动),这些均说明美国人认为工作和休闲是截然分开的。因此选A。
