It’s only an arguably very willful misinterpretation of the
ancient Mayan calendar to conclude the world ends on 21 December
2012. The question is why so many people are drawn by these tales 【M1】______
of impending destruction? There’s more reason to think it will 【M2】______
immediately lead to a planet-wide liquidation sale than if your desk
calendar reaches the end of the year before you’ve bought a new
one.
Why are we so determined to think our days are numbered, and
so willing to bend the facts to fit our delusions? My whole 【M3】______
unscientific theory is what stems from our understandable difficulty 【M4】______
grasping the walk-on part we all hold amid the sprawling enormity 【M5】______
of deep time. It is not easy to get our head round the Earth having 【M6】______
existed for billions of years, and with our own life in comparison 【M7】______
being an almost insignificant instant in the middle of it all. Thus 【M8】______
fleeting and so far from either end of the story that many of us
behave like individual black holes, mentally warping time to write
ourselves into the grand finale.
Sooner or later, those who are convinced of our imminent
doom will inevitably be proved right. The planet can’t last forever —
astronomers predict the planet only has around another 7.5 billion
years when it is engulfed by the Sun and humans will likely have 【M9】______
disappeared much earlier. If we do have only the briefest lines in a
seemingly interminable epic, shouldn’t we make most of it while we 【M10】______
are on stage?
【M1】
