答案：C
答案句：But a passing reference in a recent profile by Glamour magazine to her 20-hour workdays prompted an outpouring of admiration.
参考译文：但是，最近《魅力》杂志的一篇人物特写中顺带提到了她每天工作20小时，这引发了大量的赞美。
定位线索：题干“Glamour magazine readers”→答案句取自第1段“a passing reference in a recent profile by Glamour magazine to her 20-hour workdays prompted an outpouring of admiration”；文中“20-hour workdays”对应选项“daily work schedule”；文中“prompted an outpouring of admiration”对应选项“deeply impressed”。
解析：题干问从文中了解到《魅力》杂志读者的情况。答案句明确指出，杂志特写中提到她每天工作20小时，引发了读者的“大量赞美”，即读者对她的日常工作安排印象深刻。选项C“深深被她每日工作安排打动”是对此的同义转述。选项A“被小说中的异国浪漫吸引”和B“对她写书数量感到惊讶”在文中未提及；选项D“被她非凡的产出激励”虽与“赞美”相关，但“赞美”更直接对应“印象深刻”，且D中“highly motivated”程度过重，故C更准确。
49. What does Maryanne Taylor think of self-imposed sleeplessness?
- A. It may turn out to be key to a successful career.
- B. It may be practiced only by certain tech heads.
- C. It may symbolise one's importance and success.
- D. It may well serve as a measure of self-discipline.
答案：C
答案句：Self-imposed sleeplessness has “become a bit of a status symbol”, says Taylor, a misguided measure to prove how powerful and productive you are.
参考译文：泰勒说，自我强加的不睡觉“已经成为一种身份象征”，这是一种被误导的、用来证明你有多强大和高效的方式。
定位线索：题干“Maryanne Taylor think of self-imposed sleeplessness”→答案句取自第6段“Self-imposed sleeplessness has 'become a bit of a status symbol', says Taylor”；文中“status symbol”对应选项“symbolise one's importance and success”；文中“prove how powerful and productive you are”对应选项“importance and success”。
解析：题干问Maryanne Taylor对自我强加的不睡觉的看法。答案句明确说这“已经成为一种身份象征”，用来证明你有多强大和高效。选项C“它可能象征一个人的重要性和成功”是对“status symbol”和“powerful and productive”的同义转述。选项A“可能是事业成功的关键”是文中提到的科技界人士的观点，并非Taylor的看法；选项B“可能只有某些科技界人士会实践”范围缩小；选项D“可以作为自律的衡量标准”与原文“misguided measure”相悖。
