A. We work hard so that we can enjoy more leisure.
II. Cloze Test (10 points, 1 point for each)
下列短文中有十个空白，每个空白有四个选项。根据上下文要求选出最佳答案。
Fear and its companion pain are two of the most useful things that men and animals possess, if they are properly used. If fire did not hurt when it burnt, children would play with it 11 their hands were burnt away. 12 , if pain existed but fear did not, a child would burn itself again and again, because fear would not 13 it to keep away from the fire that had burnt it before. Fear and pain are therefore two guards, 14 which men and animals might soon die out. In the first sentence we suggest that fear ought to be properly used. If, 15 , you never go out of your house 16 of the danger of being knocked down and killed in the street by a car, you are letting fear rule you too 17 . Even in your house you are not absolutely 18 : an airplane may crash on your house or you may get cancer! The important thing is not to let fear rule you, but 19 to use fear as your servant and guide. Fear will warn you of dangers; 20 you have to decide what action to take.
However short the work week becomes, work is still the most important part of life. We do not work to get leisure and the pleasures leisure brings us; rather, we use leisure wisely so that work itself can become awarding and enjoyable. The feeling of success at doing one's daily work—whether it is a job, maintaining a home, or going to school—depends largely on coming to it each day with fresh energy and active interest.

Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.
The problem of leisure is new. Until very recent times people worked each day to the limit of their strength. Of course there were always a privileged (有特权的)few who had leisure; but most men had to work 12, 14, or even 16 hours a day, six days a week. As late as 1840 the average factory worker labored 72 hours a week. "Sunup to sundown" was the farmer's day, or as another phrase puts it, "from can to can't". Today, working less than a 40-hour week, people enjoy more leisure time. Hence, the wise use of leisure time has become an important problem for everyone, young or old. It is a particularly difficult problem for the sick, the aged, and those who have retired from earning a living. Those people have so much leisure that it is hard for them to find interesting and worthwhile ways to use it.
