解析:

1. B  從文章的主題句Scientists find that hard-working people live longer than average men and women.，可得出“職業(yè)婦女比家庭主婦更健康”的結(jié)論。A項為語法錯誤。

2. C  該選項與下文的the job-holders 構(gòu)成對比，“沒有工作的人比有工作的人身體差”。

3. A  that引導賓語從句，從句中又有一個whenever引導的時間狀語從句。句意為“研究表明當失業(yè)率上升1%，死亡率相應(yīng)上升2%�！�

4. A  該題句意為“所有這些歸結(jié)為一點�！眂ome down to歸結(jié)為；equal to等于；add up to 合計為；amount to總共到；相當于。

5. D  該句句意為“這是因為工作使人忙碌，使人們遠離孤獨和寂寞�！眐eep sb. away from是固定搭配，意為“使……遠離／避開……”。

6. D  從下文…and lonely when they have nothing to do進行邏輯推理，可知“沒事做的人會感到不開心、焦慮和孤獨”。

7. A  從上文內(nèi)容可知，最快樂的人是那些大忙人。

8. D  該句句意為“工作充當了人與現(xiàn)實生活聯(lián)系的橋梁”。

9. B  該句句意為“通過工作人們開始相互聯(lián)系／接觸”。

10. A  失去了工作就意味著失去了這一切。mean意味著。

11. D  從意義上分析，A、C項不符合上下文的邏輯關(guān)系；B項過于嚴重，失去工作還達不到“死亡”的程度。

12. A  從文章的篇章結(jié)構(gòu)上分析，上文講述的是工作給人們帶來的益處，下文還是講述這方面的內(nèi)容，屬遞進關(guān)系，不是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。

13. B  從意義上判斷，此題必須同前面的a sense of fulfillment（充實感）意義相類似，所以選B“成就感”。

14. C  從下文的his writing可判斷出答案。

15. C  根據(jù)醫(yī)生從事的工作性質(zhì)可斷定是“成功地為病人動手術(shù)”。

16. B  “學生成長”主要表現(xiàn)在知識、閱歷上的長進。

17. D  beyond words無法用語言表達；in a word簡言之；without a word 二話沒說； at a word反應(yīng)迅速地，立即。

18. A  從語法結(jié)構(gòu)上分析，conclusion之后為同位語從句，that引導同位語從句時，不作成分但不能省略。

19. D  這是一個“the +比較級，the +比較級”句型，句意為“工作越多，人就會越高興、越健康”。

20. A  從句子結(jié)構(gòu)上判斷，此句有三個并列的謂語動詞；同時注意修飾動詞要用副詞不能用形容詞。
