The way people hold to the belief that a fulfilled pain free life equals happiness actually reduces their chances of ever attaining(获得)real happiness. If fun and pleasure are equal to happiness, then pain must be equal to unhappiness. But in fact, the opposite is true: more often than not things that lead to happiness involve(包含)some pain.
As a result, many people avoid(回避)the very attempts that are source of true happiness. They ear the pain inevitably(不可避免地)brought by such things as marriage, raising children, professional(职业的)achievement(成就).
Ask a bachelor(单身汉)why he refuses marriage even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfying. If he is honest, he will tell you that he is afraid of making a commitment(义务). For commitment is in fact quite painful. The single life is filled with fun, adventure, and excitement. Marriage has such moments, but they are not its most distinguishing(杰出的)features(特征).
Couples with infant(婴儿)children are lucky to get a whole night’s sleep or a three-day vacation. I don’t know any parent who would choose the words fun to describe raising children. But couples who decide not to have children never know the joys of watching a child grow up for playing with a grandchild.
Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun is one of the most liberation realizations. It liberates time: now we can devote more hours to activities that can indeed increase our happiness. It liberates money: buying that new car or those fancy clothes that will do nothing to increase our happiness now seems pointless. And it liberates us from envy: we now understand that all those who are always having so much fun actually may not be happy at all.
72. According to the author, a bachelor resists marriage chiefly because he.()
A. is reluctant(不愿的)to take on family responsibilities
B. believes that life will be more cheerful if he remains single
C. finds more fun in dating than in marriage
D. fears it will put an end to all his fun, adventure and excitement
73. Raising children, in the author’s opinion, is a.()
A. moral duty
B. thankless job
C. rewarding task
D. source of inevitable pain
74. From the last paragraph, we learn that envy some times stems from.()
A. hatred B. misunderstanding
C. prejudice(偏见) D. ignorance
75. What is the author trying to tell us?()
A. Happiness often goes hand in hand with pain
B. One must know how to attain happiness
C. It is important to make commitments
D. It is pain that leads to happiness
