Each stage of life has different major demands mainly because our needs change. As children, security and the family are the priorities although we may not think of them in those terms. It’s where we establish something of who we are. As teenagers, we are testing the waters of adult life, and as young adults we search for a partner. The drive to fulfill each of these stages is very strong and, as it is usually combined with trying to establish a reasonable education and find work, there are many factors to keep in play.
At each stage, if we are lucky, we will have ambitions to fulfill and the means to do that. Some will be driven with almost tunnel vision, others take an easier attitude to getting there, but without dreams it is hard to direct life. If we are fortunate enough to achieve our dreams we can move forward to new ones and the priorities to do that change.
For each period of life the priorities are dictated by that stage, and as we grow older, whether we like it or not, we gain experience. Experience permits us to see a broader view if we are wise enough to take on board what is there. As we mature, the rigidity of the idealism of youth, the black and white approach to life, is tempered by what is possible, kind, just, and fair. Experience helps us to grow if we let it. So often we resist that growth, holding on to entrenched beliefs which do not do us any favors, yet our needs change and we are sometimes forced to be different.
Physically, even when we stay fit and able, the body cannot deliver in quite the same way as youth. This comes as a shock to most of us because we all start life in the belief that we are invincible and will live forever. Reality is a bit of a shock. Coming to terms with this understanding allows us to move forward, and there are benefits which are unexpected. What was desperately important when we were young is suddenly seen in a new light, and a different perception of importance emerges. Extreme age can be as demanding and insensitive as babyhood, so while priorities change through life, it seems to come the full circle.
Humans are a perverse lot. Some never want to grow up, others want to be adults with the perceived privileges of adulthood but never get old. The curious fact is that each age has its charms to be enjoyed at that period, but how we learn to appreciate them is individual.
Generally speaking, we ______.
选项
A、are obstinate in adhering to whatever is wrong
B、reject the right way to live in each period of life
C、resist the compulsive desire to live a decent life
D、become easily offended and irritated with aging
答案
B
解析
根据最后一段中的“Humans are a perverse lot.Some never want to grow up,others want tobe adults with the perceived privileges of adulthood but never get old”可知,人往往不能正确对待人生的各阶段。所以,B应为答案。
