It is a commonplace among moralists that you cannot get happiness by pursuing it. This is only true if you pursue it 【C1】______ Gamblers at Monte Carlo are pursuing money, and most of them lose it instead, but there are other ways of pursuing money, which often 【C2】______ So it is with happiness. If you pursue it 【C3】______ drink, you are forgetting the hang-over (宿醉). Epicurus pursued it by living only in congenial society and eating only dry bread, 【C4】______ by a little cheese on feast days. His method proved successful in his case, but he was a valetudinarian (体弱多病的人), and most people would need something more 【C5】______ .For most people, the pursuit of happiness, 【C6】______ supplemented in various ways, is too abstract and theoretical to be 【C7】______ as a personal rule of life. But I think that 【C8】______ personal rule of life you may choose it should not, except in rare and heroic cases, be 【C9】______ with happiness.
There are a great many people who have all the 【C10】______ conditions of happiness, i.e. health and a sufficient income, and who, 【C11】______ , are profoundly unhappy. In such cases it would seem as if the 【C12】______ must lie with a wrong theory as to how to live. In one sense, we may say that any theory as to how to live is wrong. We imagine ourselves more different from the animals than we are. Animals live on 【C13】______ , and are happy as long as external conditions are 【C14】______ If you have a cat it will enjoy life if it has food and warmth and opportunities for an 【C15】______ night on the tiles. Your needs are more complex than those of your cat, but they still have their basis in instinct. In civilized societies, especially in English-speaking societies, this is too 【C16】______ to be forgotten. People propose to themselves some one paramount objective, and 【C17】______ all impulses that do not minister to it. A business-man may be so 【C18】______ to grow rich that to this end he 【C19】______ health and private affections. When at last he has become rich, no 【C20】______ remains to him except harrying (折磨) other people by exhortations (训词) to imitate his noble example.
【C15】
选项
A、enthusiastic
B、occasional
C、indifferent
D、underlying
答案
B
解析
词义辨析。此句以猫为例,只要有食物、温暖及……的机会出去尽情玩耍一晚,它就会快乐。这种机会应是偶尔的,所以选择occasional。enthusiastic“热情的”,indifferent“冷漠的”,underlying“潜在的”,均不能修饰night。
