[解析]
(1)细节理解题。根据第一段At first,I was annoyed that I had to waste my time on such a boring task.(起初,我很恼火,因为我不得不把时间浪费在这么无聊的工作上。)可知,作者一开始被要求记录自己的工作时间时觉得很恼火,不喜欢这样。故选A。
(2)细节理解题。根据第二段When I started my first faculty position,my contract stated that I work anywhere from 36 to 48 hours per week.But my teaching and administrative workloads were so high that I regularly reached the 48﹣hour mark. (当我开始我的第一份教职工作时,我的合同规定我每周工作36到48小时。但我的教学和管理工作负担太重,我经常达到48小时。)可知,作者的第一份教职工作占据了她太多的时间。故选C。
(3)细节理解题。根据倒数第二段I'm glad I did,because the data have completely changed my view of work﹣life balance.With my tracking,I've found that I generally accumulate one week of overtime every two to three months.So now,every time I reach that milestone,I take a few days or even a whole week off.I spend that time at home with my family,or use the days to take a longer vacation.The breaks have improved my happiness and job satisfaction.(我很高兴我这么做了,因为这些数据完全改变了我对工作与生活平衡的看法。根据我的追踪,我发现我通常每两到三个月就加班一周。所以现在,每当达到这个阶段,我就会休息几天,甚至一周。我把这段时间花在家里和家人在一起,或者用这几天去度一个更长的假期。休息提高了我的幸福感和工作满意度。)可知,通过记录工作时间作者改变了工作与生活平衡的看法,得到了更多的私人时间。故选B。
(4)标题归纳题。通读全文可知,文章讲述了作者通过记录自己的工作时间改变了工作与生活平衡的看法,知道在工作多久之后自己应该休息,从而得到了更多的私人时间。再结合第一段But the practice of writing down my work hours is surprisingly inspiring,sending me down a path to better work﹣life balance.(但是,写下工作时间的做法出乎意料地鼓舞了我,让我走上了一条更好地平衡工作与生活的道路。)可知,C.Clocking your work.(为你的工作计时。)可以作为本文最佳标题。故选C。
