第一句：

思考题解析：

According to Paragraph 1, most previous surveys  found that home____————

发现套路了吗?尊重题干!不是问现在的研究结果!

而是问过去的研究结果!

[D] offered greater relaxation than the workplace

【D】提供了比工作场所更大的放松

所以D选项才是正确答案!

正话反说!

每日一句第六十九句!

是不是也是一样的啊!

但今天的题目就是真题啊!不是我设计的套路!

我从来都是真题套路的搬运工啊!

[A]was an unrealistic place for relaxation

这是现在的研究结果!

[B] generated more stress than the workplace

这也是现在的研究结果

[C] was an ideal place for stress measurement

【C】是测量压力的理想场所

stress measurement压力测量是个偷换!

没有说是不是压力测量的理想场所!这也算是拼凑啊!
