" Against boredom the gods themselves fight in vain. "
The saying let us find【B1】______in these words as we struggle to keep ourselves entertained on the condition of boredom.
An academic has set out to prove that boredom—far from being a bad thing—is a【B2】______occurring emotion that should not be suppressed. Dr Richard Ralley, a psychology【B3】______at Edge Hill College in Orm-skirk, Lancashire, has begun a study of boredom.
He said: " Boredom can be a good thing. In psychology we think of emotion as being【B4】______Fear, anger and jealousy all serve a purpose but they’re painted in a bad light even though they exist for a reason. It’s the same with boredom, which also has a bad【B5】______.
We get【B6】______because we get sick when we have nothing to do and feel the need to be productive. We feel bad when we’re not【B7】______and that’s what boredom is【B8】______with.
Boredom is something: it’s not just【B9】______off. It can be useful. When there’s nothing rewarding going on we conserve energy, so that when we want to【B10】______we can. There’s a balance between doing something that’s rewarding and doing something that’s rewarding but not being happy about doing it.
Boredom is natural. You needn’t force yourself to avoid having it. You can control it in a way that can get yourself to do something challenging. It is natural, so let’s deal with it.

[I]naturally[J]associated[K]constructive[L]consciously
[M]anxious[N]cooperated[O]re - employ
【B3】
选项
答案
E
解析
空前不定冠词a及空后介词at提示所填词应为名词。所填词所在的短语为Dr Richard Ralley的同位语,由此可推断,所填词应能表示Dr Richard Ralley的身份。而且本段首句的An academic也是对Dr Richard Ralley身份的说明,再结合空后的college可知,备选项中的[E]lecturer(讲师)最符合句意。
