As a general rule, all forms of activity lead to boredom when they are performed on a routine (常规) basis. As a matter of fact, we can see this 1 at work in people of all 2 .For example, on Christmas morning, children are excited about 3 with their new toys. But their 4 soon wears off and by January those 5 toys can be found put away in the basement. The world is full of 6 stamp albums and unfinished models, each standing as a monument to someones 7 interest. When parents bring home a pet, their child 8 bathes it and brushes its fur. Within a short time, however, the 9 of caring for the animal is handed over to the parents. Adolescents enter high school with great 10 but are soon looking forward to 11 .The same is true of the young adults going to college. And then, how many 12 , who now complain (抱怨) about the long drives to work, 13 drove for hours at a time when they first 14 their drivers licenses(执照)?Before people retire, they usually 15 to do a lot of 16 things, which they never had 17 to do while working. But 18 after retirement, the golfing, the fishing, the reading and all of the other pastimes become as boring as the jobs they 19 .And, like the child in January, they go searching for new 20 .

【解析】

文章大意】本文通过举例说明这样一个道理各种形式的活动如果人们经常做都会产生厌倦情绪。

【1】 其实,我们可从各年龄段的人们身上看到这个准则是如何起作用的。第一段的第一句出现短语As a general rule,本空填principle呼应名词rule。

【2】各年龄段的人都会产生厌倦情绪。从下文可知,孩子厌倦玩具、少年厌倦高中、青年厌倦大学、成年 人厌倦开车、老年人厌倦退休后的生活。因此本空填ages。

【3】 在圣诞节早上,孩子们一开始很喜欢玩(playing)他们的新玩具。

【4】 但是,不久他们对新玩具的兴趣(interest)逐渐消失了。

【5】 到了一月,同样的(same)玩具再也不能吸引孩子们了,他们就把那些玩具收起来了。

【6】 生活中满是装满一半(half-filled)邮票的集邮册和没有完工的模型。后文的"unfinished"是关键信息。

【7】 这些东西说明很多人曾经喜欢某一件事,结果半途而废。他们的兴趣是短暂的(passing)。故选B。

【8】 当父母带回家一个宠物时,孩子高兴地(gladly)为它洗澡、刷它的毛。

【9】 但是,过不了多久,照顾动物的重担(burden)又被移交给了父母。

【10】青少年带着极大的兴奋之情(excitement)进入高中。

【11】但是,不久他们就盼望着毕业(graduation)。

【12】 前句中的young adults暗示下文谈论的是成年人。根据文意可知,抱怨每天开车上班花费时间长的人, 应该是成年人。

【13】 而当他们刚刚拿到驾照时,他们翘首企盼(eagerly)一次开好几个小时。eagerly"渴望地",符合文意。

【14】 obtain"得到"。这里指考取驾照。

【15】在退休前,人们通常计划(plan)做很多事情。

【16】这些事情是他们上班时没有时间做的大事(great things)。

【17】 参见上题解析。他们上班太忙了,没有时间(time)做这些事情。

【18】 但是,退休后不久(soon),像打高尔夫、钓鱼、阅读及其他所有的消遣方式都变得没有意思了。

【19】 那些消遣方式就像他们刚离开(leave)的工作一样,非常乏味。

【20】 这些退休老人遭遇的处境,就像一月的孩子一样,开始找新玩具(toys),寻求刺激了。
