To be able to fill leisure intelligently is the last product of civilization, and at present very few people have reached this level. Moreover, the exercise of choice is in itself tiresome. Except to people with unusual initiative it is positively agreeable to be told what to do at each hour of the day, provided the orders are not too unpleasant. Most of the idle rich suffer unspeakable boredom as the price of their freedom from hard work. At times, they may find relief by hunting big game in Africa, or by flying round the world, but the number of such sensations is limited, especially after youth is past. Accordingly the more intelligent rich men work nearly as hard as if they were poor, while rich women for the most part keep themselves busy with innumerable trifles, of whose earthshaking importance they are firmly persuaded.
选项
答案
明智地利用空闲时间是文明社会里最难见到的事情,目前没有多少人达到了这一水平。另外,选择这件事本身也是够麻烦的。除了那些具有非凡主动性的人。大多数人都会乐意听从别人对他每个小时的工作安排,条件是工作不是太不合人意。大多数无所事事的富人免受艰辛劳作之苦,但是作为代价,他们遭受到难以形容的烦闷。有时候,他们去非洲猎捕猛兽,或乘飞机周游世界,以此来排解苦闷。但是能获得这种美好感受的次数有限,青春不再之后更是如此。因而,那些比较明智的富翁仍会努力工作,仿佛他们仍是穷人;而富婆们则大多忙于无数的琐碎小事,她们深信这些小事有着极其重要的意义。
