When we think about addiction to drugs or alcohol, we frequently focus on negative aspects, ignoring the pleasures that accompany drinking or drug-taking. 46 the essence of any serious addiction is a pursuit of pleasure, a search for a "high" that normal life does not 47 . It is only the inability to function without the addictive substance that is dismaying, the dependence of the organism upon a certain experience and a (n) 48 inability to function normally without it. Thus a person will take two or three drinks at the end of the day not merely for the pleasure drinking provides, but also because he "doesn’ t feel 49 " without them.
An addict does not merely pursue a pleasurable experience and need to 50 it in order to function normally. He needs to repeat it again and again. Something about that particular experience makes life without it 51 complete. Other potentially pleasurable experiences are no longer possible, 52 under the spell of the addictive experience, his life is peculiarly distorted. The addict craves an experience and yet he is never really satisfied. The organism may be 53 sated, but soon it begins to crave again.
Finally a serious addiction is distinguished a harmless pursuit of pleasure by its distinctly destructive elements. A heroin addict, for instance, leads a 54 life: his increasing need for heroin in increasing doses prevents him from working, from maintaining relationships, from developing in human ways. 55 an alcoholic’ s life is narrowed and dehumanized by his dependence on alcohol.
选项
A、normal
B、content
C、delighted
D、spirited
答案
A
解析
在第二段中提到,大意是瘾君子他们追求的不仅仅是一次快乐的体验,为了保持常态他必须多次重温,于是生活少了这些就不完整了。其他的快乐体验都不重要,因为上瘾的魔力之下,他的生活变得古怪扭曲。这些瘾君子永远不可能真正满足。感官上可能有短暂的满足感,可没多久又不行了,往往处于不能自拔的境地。依据前文出现的副词normally,可知A为正确答案,其他三项均与原文语境不一致。
