问题    The ability to laugh at your own weaknesses and blunders (失误) has long been recognized as a sign of maturity. And yet this is one of the most difficult【S1】______of your sense of humor to develop.
Oscar Wilde once offered a【S2】______insight about the way we live our lives when he said that "Life is too important to be taken【S3】______." I don’t think he meant you don’t have to take your responsibilities, promises, work, etc. He didn’t mean that it’s OK to live life with no【S4】______. I think he meant that the quality of our life suffers when we【S5】______everything in a serious manner. We are no longer vivid, cheerful and spontaneous as when we were kids when we take everything so seriously.
I think the key here is to take your work and your duties seriously, but take yourself【S6】______in the process. Otherwise, you will lose many【S7】______that a cheerful attitude and humor can offer.
There’s a liberating quality that most people【S8】______when they get to the point that they can laugh at themselves. We get so caught up in our anxieties, embarrassments, frustrations and upsets that we carry them around with us throughout the day. But when we find a way to laugh at them, they lose their emotional grip on us and【S9】______into the background. We feel at peace with the incident, even though it was very【S10】______at the moment.
[A] benefits             [F] approach                [K] aspects
[B] incompetence          [G] integrity                [L] seriously
[C] delighted             [H] responsibilities          [M] embarrassing
[D] lightly             [I] valuable                [N] retreat
[E] witness             [J] disgusting                [O] experience [br] 【S3】

选项

答案 L

解析空前的be taken表明，本空应填一副词，故[D]lightly、[L]seriously入选。too…to…表示否定，否定的是to后面的内容。下句中作者提到对这句话的理解：他的意思不是you don’t have to take your…etc．，take sth．等同take sth．seriously。由此可知，本空应填[L]seriously。由该段末句：当我们对一切都那么较真时，我们就不能再像孩提时那样活泼高兴，也可推断Oscar Wilde说的是“生活太重要，不能太较真”。
