The right to pursue happiness is issued to Americans with their birth cer
tificates, but no one seems quite sure which way it ran. It may be we are is
sued a hunting license but offering no game. Jonathan Swift seemed to think (1)______
so when he attacked the idea of happiness as "the possession of being well-
deceived", the felicity of being "a fool among knaves". For Swift saw the so- (2)______
ciety as Vanity Fair, the land of false goals. It is, of course, un-American to
think as terms of fools and knaves. We do, however, seem to be dedicated to (3)______
the idea of buying our way to happiness. We shall all have made it to Heaven
when we possess enough. And at the same time the forces of American com
mercialism are hugely dedicated to make us deliberately unhappy. Advertising (4)______
is one of our major industry, and advertising exists not to satisfy desires (5)______
also to create them—and to create them faster than any man’s budget can (6)______
satisfy it. For that matter, our whole economy is based on a dedicated (7)______
insatiability. We are taught that to possess is to be happy, and then we are
made to want. We are even told it is our duty to want. It was only a few years
ago, to cite a single example, which car dealers across the country were fly- (8)______
ing banners that read "You Auto Buy Now". They were calling upon Ameri
cans, as act approaching patriotism, to buy at once, with money they did not (9)______
have, automobiles they did not really need, and which they would be required
to grow tired by the time the next year’s models were released. (10)______ [br]
选项
答案
offering—offered
解析
非谓语动词错误。从句式结构来看,be动词后面跟了省略that的表语从句,第一个分句中使用了被动语态are issued,连词but后面的分句承接了前面的被动语态,并且省略了动词are,因此应该使用被动语态offered。从句意来看,是被接受,因此应该用被动语态结构。
