However，under current circumstances，the old saying “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. ” should be “makes Jack a dead boy”.A latest study by WHO says that working 55 or more hours a week is a “serious health risk”. It estimates that long working hours led to 745，000 deaths worldwide in 2016，a 29 percent increase over 2000．Men accounted for 72 percent of the deaths; the worst concentrations were in the Western Pacific and Southeast Asia，and particularly among 60-to-79-year-olds who had worked long hours after the age of 45.These figures make long working hours the biggest work-related health risk of all. Risk of a stroke rises by 35 percent and of deadly heart disease by 17 percent for those who can’t or won’t stop working，compared with people who work 35 to 40 hours a week.The pandemic，and especially remote work，has created new opportunities to work too hard. The WHO director-general，Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus，noted that teleworking has blurred the line between work and home and that people who have survived layoffs (裁员) at struggling businesses have ended up working longer hours. One survey found an overwhelming majority of American employees have shortened，postponed or canceled vacations during the pandemic.The red flags about overwork have been waving for years all around the world. Exhaustion has been identified as a factor in industrial disasters like the BP oil refinery explosion in Texas City in 2005 and the nuclear accident at Three Mile Island. In Japan，long working hours are so common that “karoshi”， translated as “death by overwork”， is a legally recognized cause of death.So，working less is a matter of life and death, isn’t it?1．How does the writer illustrate the risk of overwork in Paragraph 3?A．By giving examples. B．By listing opinions.C．By analyzing causes. D．By describing actions.2．According to Dr. Ghebreyesus，which of the following is a reason for overworking in the pandemic?A．The inconvenience in travelling.B．The loss of work-home boundaries.C．The increased enthusiasm for work.D．The lack of interest in entertainment.3．What is the main idea of paragraph 5?A．Working less is a matter of life and death.B．Japan is known for its culture of overworking.C．The harm of overwork has long been acknowledged.D．Overwork is a major reason behind industrial disasters.4．Where can you most likely find this passage?A．In a college textbook of medicine.B．In a guidebook for workplace newcomers.C．In the “opinion” column of a newspaper.D．In the brochure of a Japanese company.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。世界卫生组织的一项最新研究表明，每周工作55小时或更长时间存在着“严重的健康风险”。文章主要讲述了长时间工作已成为所有与工作相关的健康风险中最大的一个。1．A　推理判断题。根据第三段中的“These figures make long working hours the biggest work-related health risk of all. Risk of a stroke rises by 35 percent and of deadly heart disease by 17 percent for those who can’t or won’t stop working, compared with people who work 35 to 40 hours a week(这些数字使长时间工作成为所有与工作相关的健康风险中最大的一个。与每周工作35到40小时的人相比，那些不能或不愿停止工作的人患中风和致命性心脏病的风险增加了35%，而那些不能或不愿停止工作的人患心脏病的风险增加了17% ). ”可知，本段主要介绍了长时间工作成为所有与工作相关的健康风险中最大的一个。为了说明此观点，接下来的内容为具体的事例说明了长时间工作带来的健康的风险。由此可知，论证方式为列举事例。故选A项。2．B 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The WHO director-general, Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, noted that teleworking has blurred the line between work and home and that people who have survived layoffs(裁员) at struggling businesses have ended up working longer hours(世界卫生组织总干事Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus博士指出，远程办公模糊了工作和家庭之间的界限，那些在苦苦挣扎的企业中幸存下来的人最终工作时间更长了). ”可知，在该博士看来，由于远程办公模糊了工作和家庭之间的界限，使得疫情中工作的人们的工作时间更长了。故选B项。3．C　段落大意题。根据倒数第二段前两句中的“The red flags about overwork have been waving for years all around the world. Exhaustion has been identified as a factor in industrial disasters like the BP oil refinery explosion in Texas City in 2005 and the nuclear accident at Three Mile Island(多年来关于过度劳累的危险信号已经在世界各地存在。疲劳已被确定为工业灾难的一个因素，如2005年英国石油公司在德克萨斯城的炼油厂爆炸和三里岛的核事故). ”可知，本段主要介绍了多年来世界各地都承认过度劳累会带来危险。故选C项。4．C　推理判断题。通读全文，尤其结合第一段中的“However, under current circumstances, the old saying ’All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. ’ should be ’makes Jack a dead boy’ (然而，在目前的情况下，老话说得好： ’只工作不玩耍，杰克也变傻。’应该是’让杰克变成死人’). ”及第二段第一句“A latest study by WHO says that working 55 or more hours a week is a ’serious health risk’ (世界卫生组织的一项最新研究表明，每周工作55小时或更长时间是’严重的健康风险’). ”可知，本文论述了长时间工作已成为“严重的健康风险”。因此文章很有可能出自报纸上的“观点”栏目。故选C项。
