In our society the razor of necessity cuts close. You must make a buck to survive the day. You must work to make a buck: The job is often a chore, rarely a delight. No matter how demeaning the task, no matter how it dulls the senses or breaks the spirit, one must work. Lately there has been a questioning of this "work ethic", especially by the young. Strangely enough, it has touched off profound grievances in others hitherto silent and anonymous.
Unexpected precincts are being heard from in a show of discontent by blue collar and white. On the evening bus the tense, pinched faces of young file clerks and elderly secretaries tell us more than we care to know. On the expressways middle-management men pose without grace behind their wheels, as they flee city and job.
In all, there is more than a slight ache. And there dangles the impertinent question: Should there not be another increment, earned though not yet received, to one’ s daily work——an acknowledgment of a man’s being? In fact, what all of us are looking for Is a calling, not just a job. Jobs atone are not being e-noughfor people.
The main idea of this passage is:
选项
A、in modern society people are tinder great work pressure
B、nowadays people want to enjoy life more than do hard work
C、work should be to people more than just a means to survive
D、more jobs of delightshould be created for people
答案
C
解析
综合全文内容可知,本文主要讲的是工作对人们来说不应只是一种生存的手段。因此C项正确。
