工作狂英语阅读

其实我也没看出是D不过分析一下A in mind...就在本段里已经有了很好的现实成果...那个作者已经提高了400％的速度了 所以不对B reluctance...不情愿...这个肯定不对啊 很全段的基调都不一样C servant of machine...机器的侍者...甚至翻译成奴隶...本身我觉得也有问题...再从 accounts for this -- your slave works hard 这句.主语是feeling 也就是机器给你的感觉 解释了 后面的your slave works hard 这句话.而slave在这里就是machine...所以 不对只有D了 D也可以这么看作者和机器都很同步地工作...distance可以看成是感觉的一种具体化...有了切身的感受的样子

workaholic 工作狂

这是英语专业大二上册的课本里的一篇文章，说的就是工作狂的1 He worked himself to death, finally and precisely, at 3:00 a.m. Sunday morning. 2 Theobituary didn’t say that, of course. Itsaid that he died of a coronary thrombosis— I think that was it — but everyone among his friends and acquaintances knewit instantly. He was a perfect Type A2, a workaholic, a classic,they said to each other and shook their heads — and thought for five or tenminutes about the way they lived. 3 Thisman who worked himself to death finally and precisely at 3:00 a.m. Sunday morning — on his day off — wasfifty-one years old and a vice-president. He was, however, one of sixvice-presidents, and one of three who might conceivably — if the president diedor retired soon enough — have moved to the top spot. Phil knew that. 4 Heworked six days a week, five of them until eight or nine at night, during atime when his own company had begun the four-day week for everyone but theexecutives. He worked like the Important People3. He had no outside“extracurricular interests,” unless, of course, you think about a monthly golfgame that way. ToPhil, it was work. He always ate egg salad sandwiches at his desk. He was, ofcourse, overweight,by 20 or 25 pounds. He thought it was okay, though, because he didn’t smoke. 5 OnSaturdays, Phil wore a sports jacket to the office instead of a suit, becauseit was the weekend. 6 Hehad a lot of people working for him, maybe sixty, and most of them liked himmost of the time. Three of them will be seriously considered for his job. Theobituary didn’t mention that. 7 Butit did list his “survivors” quite accurately. He is survived by his wife, Helen, forty-eightyears old, a good woman of no particular marketable skills, who worked in anoffice before marrying and mothering. Shehad, according to her daughter, given up trying to compete with his work yearsago, when the children were small.A company friend said, “I know how much you will miss him.” And she answered,“I already have.” 8 “Missinghim all these years,” she must have given up part of herself which had caredtoo much for the man. She would be “well taken care of.” 9 His“dearly beloved” eldest of the “dearly beloved” children is a hard-workingexecutive in a manufacturing firm down South. In the day and a half before thefuneral, he went around the neighborhood researching his father, asking theneighbors what he was like. They were embarrassed. 10 Hissecond child is a girl, who is twenty-four and newly married. She lives nearher mother and they are close, but whenever she was alone with her father, in acar driving somewhere, they had nothing to say to each other. 11 Theyoungest is twenty, a boy, a high-school graduate who has spent the last coupleof years, like a lot of his friends, doing enough odd jobs to stay in grass andfood4. He was the one who tried to grab at his father, and tried tomean enough to him to keep the man at home. He was his father’s favorite. Overthe last two years, Phil stayed up nights worrying about the boy. 12 Theboy once said, “My father and I only board here5.” 13 Atthe funeral, the sixty-year-old company president told the forty-eight-year-oldwidow that the fifty-one-year-old deceased had meant much to the company andwould be missed and would be hard to replace. The widow didn’t look him in theeye. She was afraid he would read her bitterness and, after all, she would needhim to straighten out the finances — the stock options6 and allthat. 14 Philwas overweight and nervous and worked too hard. If he wasn’t at the office hewas worried about it. Phil was a Type A, a heart-attack natural. You could havepicked him out in a minute from a lineup. 15 Sowhen he finally worked himself to death, at precisely 3:00 a.m. Sunday morning, no one was reallysurprised. 16 By5:00 p.m. the afternoon of the funeral, the company president had begun,discreetly of course, with care and taste, to make inquiries about hisreplacement. One of three men. He asked around: “Who’s been working thehardest?”

Possibly the feeling of having a reactive machine, which appears to do things, rather than just have things done with it 上面这句话里有一个很重要的信息reactive machine,可以把这个词组理解为"和你有心灵感应的,有默契的机器",所以有点把机器拟人化了而不仅仅是作为一种工具. which appears to do things,是插入语,翻译为在你做事情的时候 accounts for this—your slave works hard and so do you. 也就是说,你们并肩作战. 从以上分析可以得出,ABC全部可以排除,D选项里的distance有"疏远,不亲切"的意思. It is claimed here that word processors create a feeling of distance between a writer and his or her work. 整个句子引申意义为,在写作中应用文字处理器使得作者和他的作品之前产生一种距离感/疏远感觉(理由是,因为在写作的过程中,文字处理器扮演了一个亲密的工作伙伴的角色,相对的作者对它的感情会更深) 个人分析...

六级这么难啊！那我不没法过了。

ABC一看就不对，用排除法也是选D啊再说了，你没用word processors前是一种状态，你用了以后变化很大：打字效率提高了，更加热衷于工作，都变成工作狂了
