34. death in the 1980s in Japan, where long working hours are the norm there.
35. Official figures say it that the Japanese work about 1780 hours a year,
36. slightly less than Americans (1800 hours a year),though more than Germans
37. (1440). But the statistics are misleading because of they do not count ’free overtime’
38. (work that an employee is obliged to perform but not paid for). It is being estimated
39. that one in three men who aged 30 to 40 works over 60 hours a week. Factory

41. uncompensated. During the past 20 years of economic inactivity, many companies
42. have been replaced full-time workers with part-time ones. Regular staff who remain
43. are benefit from lifetime employment but feel obliged to work extra hours lest
44. their positions will be made temporary. Cultural factors reinforce these trends.
45. Hard work is respected as the cornerstone of Japan’s post-war economic miracle.

选项

答案ARE

解析 本题较难,因为其句子本身较长,而且句子成分复杂。本句中,Regular staff是主语,其后紧跟一个定语从句who remain,其中的remain是不及物动词,意思是“留下来”,所以本句描写的是“那些留下来正常上班的员工”的处境:一方面他们benefit from lifetime employment.(享受终身制工作的好处);另一方面他们but feel obliged to work extra hours lest their positions be made temporary.(却被迫加班加点以免他们的工作也被改为临时工)。理清了句子结构和意义之后,我们不难看出are为多余。
