But this seems to be the irony of office speak：Everyone makes fun of it，but
managers love it，companies depend on it，and regular people willingly absorb it.
As a lingusit said，"You can get people to think it's nonsense at the same time
that you buy into it." In a workplace that's fundamentally indifferent to your
life and its meaning, office speak can help you figure out how you relate to
your work-and how your work defines who you are.
35.Which of the following statements is true about office speak?
[A] Managers admire it but avoid it
[B] Linguists believe it to be nonsense
[C] Companies find it to be fundamental
[D] Regular people mock it but accept it 长难句解析：
35.Which of the following statements is true about office speak?
原文： managers love it
[A] Managers admire it but avoid it
所以这个选项中的but avoid it 就是文中没有提及的内容，可以排除。
原文：As a linguist said，"You can get people to think it's nonsense at the
same time that you buy into it." (你可以让人们觉得这是胡说八道，但同时你又会相信它。)
[B] Linguists believe it to be nonsense (语言学家认为这是胡说八道。)
这个选项比较容易排除。
原文：companies depend on it
[C] Companies find it to be fundamental
这个选项有很强和迷惑性;
问题的关键就是：depend on 是否能够等于 fundamental?
我对fundamental这个词比较警惕，
就如我在英语一的课程中讲过的：
essential和indispensible 常常就是NG(没有提及);
我早上吃了包子。就不能说：包子对于我来讲是必须的吧。
你依靠这个梯子上房。就不能说：你发现梯子是你的根本。
这个替换是有嫌疑的。所以我在做这个题的时候会看看D;
原文：Everyone makes fun of it;regular people willingly absorb it
Everyone= regular people; make fun of it=mock it
absorb it= accept it
[D] Regular people mock it but accept it
