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.
"In our society the razor of necessity cuts Close" in the first line means ____.
选项
A、there is a shortage of daily necessities
B、people fight each other for necessities
C、most people feel the financial pressure
D、everyone lives a hard life
答案
C
解析
本题的依据句是原文第一段第二句的“You must make a buck to survive the day.(人们为了能够得到经济保障及其再提高而在工作中疲于奔命)。”因此正确的选项是C。
