问题     We always convince ourselves that life will be better after we get married, have a baby, than another. Then we are frustrated that the kids aren’t old enough and we’ll be more【S1】______when they are. After that we’re frustrated that we have teenagers to deal with. We will【S2】______be happy when they are out of that stage.
    We always tell ourselves that our life will be【S3】______when our spouse gets his or her act together. When we get a nice car, and are able to go on a nice vocation when we【S4】______. The truth is that there’s no better time than right now. If not now, when? Our life will always be filled with【S5】______.It’s best to admit this to ourselves and decide to be happy anyway.
    One of my favorite【S6】______comes from Alfred Souza. He said: "for a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin-real life. But there was always some【S7】______in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life." This【S8】______has helped me to see that there is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way. So【S9】______every moment that you have.
    And remember that time waits for no one. So stop waiting until you finish school, until you go back to school; until you get married, until you get divorced; until you have kids; until you retire; until you get a new car or home; until spring; until you are born again to decide that there is no better time than right now to be happy…
    Happiness is a journey, not a【S10】______. So, work like you don’t need money, love like you’ve never been hurt, and dance like no one’s watching.

【S4】

选项

答案D

解析 此处需一动词作时间状语从句谓语,retire(退休,退役)更符合句意。本句意为:我们退休之后,可以买部漂亮的车子,开着去度假。
