(10 points) People have speculated for centuries about a future without work. Today is no different, with academics, writers, and activists once again 1 that technology is replacing human workers. Some imagine that the coming work-free world will be defined by 2 . A few wealthy people will own all the capital, and the masses will struggle in an impoverished wasteland. A different and not mutually exclusive 3 holds that the future will be a wasteland of a different sort, one 4 by purposelessness: Without jobs to give their lives 5 , people will simply become lazy and depressed. 6 , today’s unemployed don’t seem to be having a great time. One Gallup poll found that 20 percent of Americans who have been unemployed for at least a year report having depression, double the rate for 7 Americans. Also, some research suggests that the 8 for rising rates of mortality, mental-health problems, and addicting 9 poorly-educated middle-aged people is shortage of well-paid jobs. Perhaps this is why many 10 the agonizing dullness of a jobless future. But it doesn’t 11 follow from findings like these that a world without work would be filled with unease. Such visions are based on the 12 of being unemployed in a society built on the concept of employment. In the 13 of work, a society designed with other ends in mind could 14 strikingly different circumstances for the future of labor and leisure. Today, the 15 of work may be a bit overblown. “Many jobs are boring, degrading, unhealthy, and a waste of human potential,” says John Danaher, a lecturer at the National University of Ireland in Galway. These days, because leisure time is relatively 16 for most workers, people use their free time to counterbalance the intellectual and emotional 17 of their jobs. “When I come home from a hard day’s work, I often feel 18 ,” 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 19 a hobby or a passion project with the intensity usually reserved for 20 matters.

篇章主线

本文主题可归为“考古发现与历史遗址”。开篇信息是：People have speculated for centuries about a future without work. 复盘时应先抓住文章对象、时间推进和因果变化，再回到每个空格判断词性、搭配和逻辑方向。

整体难点评析

• 篇章层面：完形不是逐空翻词，很多空格依赖前后两三句的照应关系。先判断段落是在介绍背景、推进事件、解释原因还是给出结论，再判断选项是否顺着文章主线发展。
• 语言层面：本篇需要重点关注名词化结构、被动与非谓语、逻辑连接、修饰后置、长句主干识别。遇到长句时先找主谓宾或系表结构，再处理介词短语、定语从句和分词结构。
• 选项层面：常见干扰来自近义词、同一语义场词汇和固定搭配误判。尤其要检查动词是否能支配后面的宾语，形容词是否能修饰目标名词，介词是否符合原文空间或逻辑关系。
• 复盘层面：先用答案链检查自己错题集中在哪一类空格，再把错题分成“词义不准、搭配不熟、逻辑关系反、代词/指代没看清”四类，后续训练会更有效。

选项观察示例

• 1. [A] boasting [B] denying [C] warning [D] ensuring
• 2. [A] inequality [B] instability [C] unreliability [D] uncertainty
• 3. [A] policy [B] guideline [C] resolution [D] prediction

这些选项不能只按中文意思选。更稳的做法是先确定空格在句中的语法角色，再看它和前后关键词之间是否形成自然搭配，最后用全文主题检查语义是否跑偏。

易错点总结

• 只看空格所在半句，忽略上一句铺垫或下一句解释，容易把“局部通顺”的选项误当答案。
• 把近义词当成可互换词，忽略语体、搭配对象和逻辑方向，是完形高频失分原因。
• 遇到转折、让步、因果、递进时，要先判断作者态度和事件走向；逻辑方向判断错，后面的词义判断通常也会错。
• 名词空重点看可数性、抽象/具体属性和前置修饰；动词空重点看主语、宾语和时态语态；形容词/副词空重点看评价色彩和程度。
• 复盘时不要只记答案字母，应把正确选项放回原句朗读一遍，确认句法、语义和篇章三层都成立。
