Question

[原文]Once there was a young woman who didn’t like her job. Every day when she came home from work,she told her husband how terrible her day had been,how tiring the work and how unreasonable her boss. “Leave that job, ” her husband told her.

  “Oh,I will, ” she said ,“but not yet. I have too many friends there for me to leave. ”And so she remained unhappy at work until the years became decades and her children had children. “Leave that job, ” her grandchildren told her. “Oh ,

I will”，she said, “but not yet. There are only seven more years until I reach thirty years of service and can retire. So I can’t just yet. ”

I know this woman. And her story reminds me of an old dog half asleep on the porch of a general store,moaning and groaning in the sun. “Why is your dog acting that way?” a customer asked the store owner. “Oh ,” answered the man, “he’s lying on a nail. ” “Well,why doesn’t he move?” ^wBe-cause it’s not hurting him bad enough. ” That’s true for people,too. We convince ourselves the pain is not bad enough to leave the workplace we know. But we’re wrong. Prolonged work pain is continuing. Some work pain damages our self-esteem,kills our passion or destroys our dreams.

[問題]From the first and the second paragraphs we can know that the woman.

   A. liked making friends with others

   B. loved all her children very much

   C. left her tiring job at last

   D. did exactly the same job all along

[答案]        

[理由]        

Answer 1

D 一位年輕的女士對自己的工作很不滿意，可是由于種種原因，一直干到了退休。作者由這位女士的情況想到了臥在釘子上呻吟的狗，它還沒有痛到離開釘子的程度。文章分析了對.丁.作抱

有消極心理的壞處。根據(jù)第一段的內(nèi)容以及第二段中的"-tm-til the years became decades --. There are only seven more years until I reach thirty years of service and can retire. So I can't just yet."可以推知，她一直沒有換工作。
