People have speculated for centuries about a future without work. Today is no different, with academics, writers, and activists once again 【C1】______ that technology is replacing human workers. Some imagine that the coming work-free world will be defined by 【C2】______ . A few wealthy people will own all the capital, and the masses will struggle in an impoverished wasteland.
A different and not mutually exclusive 【C3】______ holds that the future will be a wasteland of a different sort, one 【C4】______ by purposelessness: Without jobs to give their lives 【C5】______ , people will simply become lazy and depressed. 【C6】______ today’ s unemployed don’t seem to be having a great time.

These days, because leisure time is relatively 【C16】______ for most workers, people use their free time to counterbalance the intellectual and emotional 【C17】______ of their jobs. "When I come home from a hard day’ s work, I often feel 【C18】______ ," Danaher says, adding, "In a world in which I don ’ t have to work, I might feel rather different"—perhaps different enough to throw himself 【C19】______ a hobby or a passion project with the intensity usually reserved for 【C20】______ matters.
