Answer 1

答案：1．C;2．D;3．B;4．C;5．C;
解析：

(1)	第一段最后讲到工作狂一周要工作60～70个小时，所以答案为C项。
(2)	作者把工作狂分为了两类。一类是不得不工作挣钱的人，他们压力大、往往健康不佳；另一类是喜欢工作很长时间的人，他们通常不会有那么多健康问题，所以A、C两项应排除；B项意为“婚姻，结婚”，与文意不符；两类工作狂的共同问题是家庭和睦问题，即可能导致D项的“离婚”。
(3)	从第四段第二句可知，工作狂的家庭问题往往是由于经常不在家造成的。
(4)	从后两段看出，作者认为工作狂应多花时间和家人在一起。
(5)	综观全文，作者指出了工作狂的一些问题，最后一段建议他们应该获得家人朋友的帮助，以戒掉不良习惯，而不必去看医生，所以答案为C项。
