问题     "Time", says the proverb, "is money". This means that every moment well-spent may bring out some money into our pockets. If our time is usefully【C1】______, it will either turn out some useful and important piece of work which will fetch its price in the market, or it will add to our experience and increase our capacities so as to enable us to earn money【C2】______the proper opportunity comes. There can thus be no doubt that time is convertible into money. 【C3】______, our life is nothing more than our time. To kill time is therefore a form of suicide. We are shocked when we think of【C4】______, and we spare no pains, no trouble and no expense to preserve life. But we are too often【C5】______to the loss of an hour or of a day, forgetting that our life is the sum total of the days and of the hours we live.
    There is a third【C6】______which will also tend to warn us against loss of time. Our life is a brief【C7】______measuring some sixty or seventy years in all, but nearly one half of this has to be spent in sleep, some years have to be spent in making journeys on land and voyages by sea, some in merry making; some in【C8】______religious and social festivities. Now if all these years were to be deducted from the term over which our life extends we shall find about fifteen or twenty years at our【C9】______for active work. Whoever remembers this can never【C10】______waste a single moment of his life.
【C10】
选项 A、willingly
B、deliberately
C、cheerfully
D、voluntarily
答案A
解析 A项willingly意为“情愿地，愿意”；B项deliberately意为“故意地”；C项cheerfully意为“愉快地，高兴地”；D项voluntarily意为“自愿地，主动地”。根据句意，此处应填willingly。这句话的大意是“任何记住这一点(我们能够自由支配用于积极工作的时间大约只有15年或20年)的人都永远不会愿意浪费自己生命中的每一分每一秒。”
