The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention【C3】______40.6 million American workers, or 30% of the【C4】______workforce, don’t get enough rest.

【C1】
选项
A、peculiar
B、perfect
C、peaceful
D、peak
答案
D
解析
形容词辨义题。第一段提到“夜晚的良好睡眠对企业有利”,根据空格后面提到的“劳动者的长期疲惫”可知,此处说“三分之一的美国劳动者由于睡眠不足不能在工作时达到最佳状态”,at peak level意为“达到巅峰状态”,故答案为D)。peculiar“特殊的,独特的”;perfect“完美的,最好的”;peaceful“和平的,平静的”,均不符合文意,故排除。
