There are people who are especially attracted to the concept of "climbing the ladder" so to increase their status, financial position, and sense of self-worth. In part, as a result of the work ethic(行为准则), these people are internally "driven" to work. Frequently, foreign visitors have observed that Americans spend an excessive amount of time working and as a consequence, Americans have little time for leisure or personal relationships. In American English a new word has been created to describe people who work compulsively. The word "workaholic" describes an individual who is as devoted to work as an alcoholic is addicted to liquor.
There are conflicting points of view about workaholics. Those concerned with problems of mental stress believe workaholics abuse themselves physically and mentally. Others hold that workaholics are valuable members of society because they are extremely productive. The American culture values achievement, efficiency, and production—a workaholic upholds these values.
The word "workaholic" refers to a person______.
