问题     Effort is the essence of happiness: there is no happiness
except as we take on challenges. Short of the
impossible, the satisfactions we get from a lifetime depend
on how high we place our difficulties. The mortal flaw in
the advertised version of happiness is in fact that it claims            【S1】______
to be effortless.
    We demand difficulty ever in our diversions (娱乐).                  【S2】______
We demand it because without difficulty there can be no
game; a game is a way of making something easy for the                   【S3】______
fun of it. The rules of the game are an arbitrary addition of
difficulty. It is easier to win a chess if you are flee to change        【S4】______
the rules, but the fun is in winning within the rules. If we
could mint (铸造) our own money, even building a fortune
will become boring. No difficulty, no fun.                               【S5】______
    Happiness is never more than partial. Whoever else                   【S6】______
happiness may be, it is neither in having nor being, but in              【S7】______
becoming. What the writers of the Constitution declared
for us as an inherent right was not happiness but pursuit                【S8】______
of happiness. What the early patriots may have underlined,               【S9】______
could they have foreseen the happiness-market, is the
cardinal fact that happiness is in the pursuit itself,                   【S10】______
in the pursuit what is engaging and life-changing, which is to say,
in the idea of becoming. A nation is not measured by what it
possesses or wants to possess, but by what it wants to
become.
【S9】
选项
答案may→might
解析 时态的误用。早期的爱国者(early patriots)为过去时代，故应将may改为might。
