问题 根据以下材料,回答题Laziness is a sin, everyone knows that.We have probably all had lectures pointing out that laziness is immoral, thatit is wasteful, and that lazy people will never amount to anything in life. Butlaziness can be more harmful than that, and it is often caused by more complexreasons than simple wish to avoid work. Some people who appear to be lazy aresuffering from much more serious problems. They may be so distrustful of theirfellow workers that they are unable to join in any group task for fear ofridicule or fear of having their ideas stolen. These people who seem lazy may beparalyzed by a fear of failure that prevents fruitful work. Or other sorts offantasies (幻想)may prevent work; some people are so busy planning, sometimes planning greatdeals or fantastic achievements that they are unable to deal with whatever"lesser" work is on hand. Still other people are not avoiding work;strictly speaking, they are merely procrastinating--rescheduling their day.Laziness can actually be helpful. Likeprocrastinators (拖延者), some people may look lazy when they are really thinking,planning, contemplating (沉思), researching. We shouldall remember that great scientific discoveries occurred by chance. Newtonwasn′t working in the orchard when the apple hit him and he devised the theoryof gravity. All of us would like to have someone "lazy" were causedby the worker′s taking time to check each step of his work and to do his jobright. And sometimes, being lazy that is, taking time off for a rest is goodfor the overworked students or executive.Taking a rest can be particularly helpful tothe athlete who is trying too hard or the doctor who′s simply working himselfovertime too many evenings at the clinic. So be careful when you are tempted tocall someone lazy. That person may be thinking, resting, and planning his orher next book.  The author′s tone of writing the lastparagraph is ______.查看材料A.factual            B.seriousC.satirical            D.humorous

选项 A.factual            
B.serious
C.satirical            
D.humorous

答案 D

解析 态度题。根据“So be careful when you’re tempted tocall someone lazy.That person may be thinking,resting,and planning his or her next book.
(所以,当你准备叫某人懒虫时要小心点。那个人可能正在思考问题、休息或计划写他或她的下一部书。)”可知在最后一段中,作者用轻松诙谐的(humorous)笔触,再次强调懒惰的益处,观点新颖。其笔调既不是“事实的(factual)”,也不是“严肃的(serious)”或“含讽刺意味的(satirical)”。故选D。
