问题     In a time not so long ago or far away, eating family dinner,
connecting with your spouse after tucking the children into bed or talking
with your children in the in-between times like the ride to school was
well, just routine.
    But times have changed. Our growing cultural mindset is that we’re
so busy to connect with those closest to us, even though we collectively【S1】________
want to. Parents and children alike increasingly fund their downtime in【S2】________
phones and on social media and there’s a general sense which there’s【S3】________
always more. More to read, more to reply to and more to see. Because
of this pressure to always consume more, that can feel wasteful to slow【S4】_________________
down to appreciate the people in front of us, for fear that missing out on【S5】_________________
life happening elsewhere.
    When it’s true that we can always consume more information, it’s【S6】________
not true that slowing down and taking time to connect—specially face-to-【S7】_________________
face—is a waste of time. In fact, the exact opposition is true. Making【S8】________
time for social connections can reduce the chances of depression and
anxiety caused loneliness.  And those connections can have broader【S9】________
benefits as well. John Gottman notes in his book The Seven Principles
for Making Marriage Work that enhancing your " love maps," as in your
knowledge of your spouse’s day-to-day experiences, are key to a happy,【S10】________
healthy marriage and a happier, healthier life.
【S8】
选项
答案opposition—opposite
解析 近义词误用。opposition是指the act of strongly disagreeing with sb．／sth．，即“反对，反抗”；opposite是指a person or thing that is as different as possible from sb．／sth．else，即“对立的人或物”。联系上下文可知，此处是指恰恰相反的情况，故应用opposite。
