W: Michael, do you go out to work?
M: Not regularly. I used to have a job in a publishing company, but I decided it wasn’t really what I wanted to do and what I wanted to do wouldn’t earn me much money, so I gave up working, and luckily I had a private income from my family, to support me and now I do the things I want to do. Some of them get paid like lecturing and teaching, and others don’t.
W: What are the advantages of not having to go to work from nine till five?
M: There’re two advantages really. One is that if you feel tired you don’t have to get up, and the other is that you can spend your time doing things you want to do rather than being forced to do the same tiring all the time.
W: But surely that’s in a sense very self-indulgent and very lucky because most of us have to go out and earn our livings. Do you feel justified in having this privileged position?
M: Yes. I do things which I think are useful to people and the community and which I enjoy doing.
W: Does your wife think that in order to lead a balanced life, people need some form of work?
M: Yes, she does. She thinks it’s equally important that their attitude to work should be positive and whatever work one is actually doing can become creative. Even when she cooks a meal, she thinks she is creating, in her own way, something which is very necessary to our family.
选项
A、Because he can earn much money to support his family.
B、Because his wife agrees with his present working way.
C、Because his present work is creative.
D、Because his work is useful to the people and the community
答案
D
解析
[听力原文]
Why does the man feel justified in his present way of working?
[听前预测] 选项中多处出现work,并且有三项陈述了工作的特点,另一项是其妻子对其工作的态度;由此预测本题可能会围绕他从事工作的特点或人们对其工作的态度提问。
[答案详解] 目的原因题[考频:4]。Do you feel justified in having this privileged position?的提问标示新一轮话题的开始,是长对话的出题点。本题的关键句为“I do things which I think... enjoy doing”我认为我做的事情对人们和社会都有益,并且我喜欢做那些事情。问题的回答中包含答案,故选D)。
