高中英语语法填空:短文题型能力练习 Test 25

Have you thought about what you want people to say about you after you're gone? Can you hear the voice saying, “He was a great man.” Or “She really will be missed.” What else do they say?

One of the strangest phenomena of life is to engage in a work that will  61  (last) long after death. Isn't that a lot like investing all your money so that future generations can  62  (bear) interest on it? Perhaps, yet if you look  63  (deep) in your own heart, you'll find something drives you to make this kind of contribution—something drives every human being to find a purpose that lives on after death.

Do you hope to memorialize your name? Have a name that is whispered with reverent awe? Do you hope to have your face  64  (carve) upon 50 ft of granite(花岗岩,坚毅) rock? Is the answer really that simple? Is the purpose of lifetime contribution an ego-driven desire for a mortal being to have an  65  (mortal) name or is it something more?

A child alive today will die tomorrow. A baby that had the potential to be the next Einstein will die from complication at birth. The circumstances of life are not set in stone. We are not all  66  (mean) to live life through to old age. We've grown to perceive life as a full cycle with a certain number of years in between. If all of those years aren't lived out, it's a tragedy. A tragedy because a human's potential was never realized. A tragedy because a spark was snuffed out  67  it ever became a flame.

By virtue of inhabiting a body we accept these risks. We expose our mortal flesh  68  the laws of the physical environment around us. The trade off isn't so bad when you think about it. The problem comes when we construct mortal fantasies of  69  life should be like.  70  life doesn't conform to our fantasy, we grow upset, frustrated, or depressed.
