Most people seek some degree of inner peace at work, and it can be difficult to obtain. Work is stressful, and most of us tend to either overwork ourselves or we are, for other reasons, negatively affected by things happening at work.
The struggle to maintain one’s inner peace and avoid burnout(职业倦怠症)has become a standard ingredient, of modern working life. Many of us attend seminars on work life-balance, we see therapists, we meditate, or we seek advice on how to handle stressful careers.
The balancing of one’s personal life and work life is a challenge to all of us who aspire to be successful—by whatever relevant metric. It is not surprising that so much is being said and written on the topic.
Unfortunately, I have noticed a tendency to talk about the dangers of burnout at work in terms that provoke fear and panic in the stressed individual rather than lead him or her to slow down. Our methods of discussing the dangers of stress and burnout are too defensive and too reactive. We tend to think that the busyness of work is somehow dangerous, and that we need to balance out the busyness with the emptiness of non-work.
Our emphasis on practices such as meditation, yoga, mindfulness—or simply just periods of nothingness—as means of balancing out the stress of work illustrates this point. All of these things can be good and helpful in their own right, but they all stand for a "letting go" of things. They are defined by inactivity.
This logic leads to a kind of life where the "active" is considered to be dangerous and something that should always be balanced out by the "inactive". We
oscillate
between the two extremes—fearful of staying too long in any of the camps. This oscillation is stressful in itself.
It would be much better if we had a way of living that could embrace, enjoy, and handle the tough, everyday work life rather than constantly looking for ways to escape it.
The author of the passage seems to reject the statement that
选项
A、we are negatively affected by things happening at work
B、balancing one’s personal life and work life is a challenge to all of us
C、burnout provokes fear and panic in the stressed individual
D、the emptiness of non-work is the best way to balance out the busyness
答案
C
解析
短文作者似乎拒绝接受职业倦怠症在充满压力的人身上引起畏惧和恐慌。A(we are negatively affected by things happening at work)在第一段最后一句提及;B(balancing one’s personal life is a challenge to all of us)在第三段第一句提及;D(theemptiness of non—work is the best way to balance out the busyness)在第四段最后一句提及;没有提到C。
