题目解答
答案
选C. 题干 What can be inferred from the sentence "On the road back to work a new job isn' t the final destination "?意为从“在重返工作岗位的路上，一份新工作并不是最终目的地”这句话中可以推断出什么。A选项意为迈耶对找工作失去了信心。通过理解短文知道他并没有失去信心。B选项意为Meyer在求职方面有很多选择。中I 'm on break from the temporary job that I have,我正在从临时工作中休息。从文中知道他找了份临时工，说明选择并没有很多。C选项意为Meyer发现很难找到一份长期工作。Ray Meyer was laid off from his job as a regional bank manager almost three years ago now .雷·迈耶（Ray Meyer）在近三年前被地区银行经理解雇。他终于屈服了，开始在一家临时中介公司工作。说明三年间他一直没有找到一份长期工作，后面做了一份临时工作。D选项意为Meyer知道他最终会退休。文中没有提到。
解析
考查要点：本题考查对句子隐含意义的理解能力，需要结合上下文推断人物处境。
解题核心：抓住关键句中的比喻意象“新工作只是中途站”，联系人物背景（被解雇三年后从事临时工作）进行推理。
破题关键：理解“中途站”暗示对长期工作的不确定性和持续求职的被动状态。
关键句解析：
原句“新工作不是最终目的地，只是一个中途站”用比喻手法，暗示Ray Meyer对当前工作的临时性质有清晰认知。结合他被解雇三年后仍从事临时工作，可推断他难以获得稳定的长期职位。
选项分析：
- A（失去信心）：错误。文中未体现消极情绪，反而通过临时工作维持状态。
- B（求职选择多）：错误。临时工作说明选择有限，否则会直接获聘长期职位。
- C（难找长期工作）：正确。被解雇后三年未获长期工作，只能接受临时职位，直接对应此选项。
- D（将退休）：错误。文中未提及退休相关线索。
