1.In old days,when a glimpse of stocking was looked upon as something far too shocking to distract the serious work of an office,secetaries were men.请问大家这句话怎么翻译啊?
2.原文中说“In our society the razor of neccessity cuts close.You must make a buck to survive the day.You must work to make a buck.The job is often a chore,rarely a delight.No matter how demeaning the task,no matter how it dulls the senses or breaks the spirit,one must work.Lately there has been a questioning
of this "work ethic",especially bu by the yong.Strangely enough,it has touched off profound grievances in others hitherto and anonymous.”
The "work ethic" referred to in the paragraph can be interpreted as_____
a.one must work mainly to keep body and sonl together
b.one must work not only for money,but also for delight
c.one must understand that jobs as chores
d.one should earn as much money a day as possible
标准答案说是选a,我选择了d.请问为什么是a啊?sonl 是什么意义啊?我都查不到啊.
3.原文中说：he was a retired African sergant from the Army Medical Corps and was feared bu the boys.
the boys were afraid of Mr Abu because¬¬¬¬_____________
a.he had been an Army sergant and had military ideas of discipline
b.he believed in strict discipline
但是我觉得原文是说 Mr Abu 是个退休的军人,也就是说 他曾经是个军人,（答案中也是说他曾经是军人） 而 had been 不是说 他一直都是军人吗?时态好想表述的不对啊.所以选了b.
The Unite States military adviced on repelling sharks is to stay clothed------sharks go for exposed flesh,expecially the feet.

1.在过去,如果看一眼长筒袜,就会被认为好比是不能专注的在办公室认真工作那样骇人听闻,因此秘书都是男人.
2,我也不知道sonl是什么意思,但是用排除法,可以选出a,以为最后提出了,就是因为工作只是为了survive,所以形成了工作道德的问题.因为B说工作是不是为了money而是delight,显然是错了c说一个人必须理解工作是繁琐没完没了的.D说一个人每天应该赚尽可能多的钱.显然这三个都不是后面提到的工作道德.我猜应该是身心投入的工作,才是工作道德.因此选a,道理说得有点牵强了.^^回头我姐姐来了,我问问她.
3,had been 是指过去一直.很明显应该选a.他过去一直是军人,才会有 military ideas of discipline ,而不是对 strict discipline 保持信任.
4.美国军队建议,击退鲨鱼的方法是保持衣服覆盖,因为鲨鱼喜欢裸露的肉体,尤其是脚.
