" 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.

[M]anxious[N]cooperated[O]re - employ
【B1】
选项
答案
F
解析
空前动词find和空后介词in提示所填词为名词。本文首句的谚语意为“即使是神仙也无法控制烦躁情绪的产生”,作者引用此谚语是想表达,既然神仙面对烦燥情绪都无能为力,更何况是我们这样的普通人。根据本句中as引导的从句可知,此谚语明显是在劝戒那些极力想控制自己烦恼躁情绪的人不要太过强迫自己。备选项中的名词[F]comfort(安慰)用在句中符合句意,为本题答案。
