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)______

think as terms of fools and knaves. We do, however, seem to be dedicated to (3)______

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)______

have, automobiles they did not really need, and which they would be required

解析
冠词遗漏。act表示行为,是可数名词,前面要加冠词,这里是第一次提到,所以加an,表示“一种……行为”。
