A few years ago, I took it upon myself to start writing tips for the young staff where I work about how to avoid doing things that would make their supervisors write them off. At that point, I had to deal with a reality: When it comes to a life filled with deep and lasting satisfactions, most of the cliches are true. How could I make them sound fresh to a new generation? Here’s how I tried.
【R1】______
The age of marriage for college graduates has been increasing for decades, and this cultural shift has been a good thing. But should you assume that marriage is still out of the question when you’re 25? I’m not suggesting that you decide ahead of time that you will get married in your 20s. I’m just pointing out that you shouldn’t exclude the possibility. If you get married in your 20s, it is likely to be a startup.
What are the advantages of a startup marriage? For one thing, you will both have memories of your life together when it was all still up in the air. You’ll have fun remembering the years when you went from being scared newcomers to the point at which you realized you were going to make it.
【R2】______
Marry someone with similar tastes and preferences. Which tastes and preferences? The ones that will affect life almost every day.
It is absolutely crucial that you really, really like your spouse. You hear it all the time from people who are in great marriages: "I’m married to my best friend." They are being literal. A good working definition of "soul mate" is "your closest friend, to whom you are also sexually attracted."
【R3】______
One of my assumptions about you is that you are ambitious—meaning that you hope to become famous, rich or both, and intend to devote intense energy over the next few decades to pursuing those dreams. That is as it should be.
But suppose you arrive at age 40, and you enjoy your work, have found your soul mate, are raising a couple of terrific kids—and recognize that you will probably never become either rich or famous. At that point, it is important to know fame and wealth do accomplish something: They cure ambition anxiety. But that’s all. It isn’t much.
【R4】______
Start by jarring yourself out of unreflective atheism or agnosticism. A good way to do that is to read about contemporary cosmology. That reading won’t lead you to religion, but it may stop you from being unreflective.
Start reading religious literature. The past hundred years have produced excellent and accessible work, much of it written by people who came to adulthood as uninvolved in religion as you are.
【R5】______
Without the slightest bit of preaching, The movie "Groundhog Day" shows the bumpy, unplanned evolution of his protagonist from a jerk to a fully realized human being—a person who has learned to experience deep, lasting and justified satisfaction with life even though he has only one day to work with.
You could learn the same truths by studying Aristotle’s "Ethics" carefully, but watching "Groundhog Day" repeatedly is a lot more fun.
【R3】
选项
答案
F
解析
根据第六段One of my assumptions about you is that you are ambitious(对于你,我有一个既定的假设:你是一个雄心勃勃的人)和第七段At that point,it is important to know fame and wealth do accomplish something(到了那个阶段,你应该知道名声和财富的确能有所作为)可知这两段的关键词为ambitious和fame and wealth,结合选项,可知F项“最终不再因名利而烦恼”符合题意,为正确答案。
