英语每日一练
Translate the following passage into Chinese. Write your answer on the Answer Sheet.
Should work be placed among the cases of happiness or be regarded as a burden? Much work is exceedingly tiresome, and an excess of work causes stress and even disease. I think, however, that, provided work is not excessive in amount, even boring work is less harmful than idleness. We sometimes feel a little relief from work; at other tomes work gives us delight. These feeling arise according to the type of work we are doing and our ability to do that work. Work fills many hours of the day and removes the need to decide what one should do.

正确答案
工作究竟应该视为幸福之源,还是不幸之因?当然有许多工作令人极其厌烦,超负荷的工作总是给人造成巨大压力,甚而积劳成疾。但我认为,假如工作负担不是过重,即便是乏味的工作也比无所事事对身体健康有益。有时我们从工作中获得慰藉;有时工作给我们带来快乐。这些感觉的产生取决于我们所从事工作的类型以及我们自身的工作能力。工作占去了我们一天当中大部分的时间,也不允许我们需要决定应该做什么。
