Question

【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。

Today our life and work rarely feel light or pleasant. Instead, the whole experience of being alive begins to melt into one enormous obligation(責(zé)任). 【1】____

We say this to one another with great pride. 【2】 We are unavailable to our friends and family, unable to find time for the sunset, to finish off our obligations without time for a single mindful breath. This seems to have become the model of a successful life.

Because we do not rest, we lose our way. We lose the relaxation that gives us help. 【3】 Poisoned by the belief that good things come only through tireless effort, we never truly rest. This is not the world we dreamed of when we were young. But how did we get so terribly rushed in a world filled with work and responsibility, yet it lacks joy and delight?

【4】 Sunday is the time to enjoy and celebrate what is beautiful and good, time to sing songs, give thanks, and walk. It is time to be refreshed as we stop our work, our chores and our important projects.

Sunday is more than the absence of work. Many of us, in our desperate drive to be successful and care for our many responsibilities, feel terrible guilty when we take time to rest. 【5】 Many of us still recall when, not long ago, shops and offices were closed on Sundays. Those quiet Sunday afternoons are deep in our cultural memory.

A. We also miss the quiet that gives us wisdom.

B. All span>work and no play make Jack a dull boy.

C. It becomes the standard greeting everywhere, “I am so busy.”

D. We work through day and night, feeling rather exhausted.

E. But the Sunday has proven its wisdom over the ages.

F. The reason is simple: we have forgotten the Sunday.

G. The busier we are, the more important we seem to ourselves and, we imagine, to others.

【3】A

【4】F

【5】E

【解析】

試題分析：在現(xiàn)代生活中人們越來越忙，甚至休息都會(huì)感覺愧疚。在文章中，作者告訴我們勞逸結(jié)合更重要。

【1】C 根據(jù)本段第一句Today our life and work rarely feel light or pleasant.可知人們的現(xiàn)代生活總是很忙碌，很難感覺到輕松愉悅。所以C項(xiàng)It becomes the standard greeting everywhere, “I am so busy.”我很忙已經(jīng)成為一個(gè)常見的問候語了。故C項(xiàng)與本段中心思想一致。

【2】G 根據(jù)本段最后一句This seems to have become the model of a successful life.忙碌似乎成為了成功生活的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)一樣，我們越忙越感覺到自己對他人對自己來說越重要。故G項(xiàng)與本段中心思想一致。

【3】A 根據(jù)前一句We lose the relaxation that gives us help.忙碌的生活讓我們失去了放松，而放松可以給我們帶來幫助。我們也錯(cuò)過了放松帶來的寧靜。這寧靜也可以給我們帶來智慧。本句要討論的和前面一句中的relaxation是一樣的類別。故A正確。

【4】F 根據(jù)橫線后一句Sunday is the time to enjoy and celebrate what is beautiful and good, time to sing songs, give thanks, and walk.周日是我們享受生活，慶賀生命中美好事物的時(shí)候。但是忙碌的生活讓我們忘記了這些。故F項(xiàng)與本段主題一致。

【5】E 根據(jù)橫線前句Many of us, in our desperate drive to be successful and care for our many responsibilities, feel terrible guilty when we take time to rest.很多追求成功的人感覺如果我們花時(shí)間休息，會(huì)很愧疚。實(shí)際上，周日休息是可以提高我們的工作效率的，對我們的工作是有好處的。勞逸結(jié)合效率高。且E項(xiàng)與橫線后一句Many of us still recall when, not long ago, shops and offices were closed on Sundays.相一致。故E正確。
