问题     In a time not so long ago or far away, eating family dinner,
connecting with your spouse after tucking the children into bed or talking
with your children in the in-between times like the ride to school was
well, just routine.
    But times have changed. Our growing cultural mindset is that we’re
so busy to connect with those closest to us, even though we collectively【S1】________
want to. Parents and children alike increasingly fund their downtime in【S2】________
phones and on social media and there’s a general sense which there’s【S3】________
always more. More to read, more to reply to and more to see. Because
of this pressure to always consume more, that can feel wasteful to slow【S4】_________________
down to appreciate the people in front of us, for fear that missing out on【S5】_________________
life happening elsewhere.
    When it’s true that we can always consume more information, it’s【S6】________
not true that slowing down and taking time to connect—specially face-to-【S7】_________________
face—is a waste of time. In fact, the exact opposition is true. Making【S8】________
time for social connections can reduce the chances of depression and
anxiety caused loneliness.  And those connections can have broader【S9】________
benefits as well. John Gottman notes in his book The Seven Principles
for Making Marriage Work that enhancing your " love maps," as in your
knowledge of your spouse’s day-to-day experiences, are key to a happy,【S10】________
healthy marriage and a happier, healthier life. [br] 【S2】
选项
答案 fund—invest
解析 动词误用。联系上下文可知，该处意为“父母和孩子们都越来越多地将闲暇时间花在手机和社交媒体上”。由此可知，该处动词是指“把(时间、精力等)投入在某事上”，且能与介词in和on搭配。invest意为“投入(时间、精力)”，固定搭配是invest sth．in／on sth．，fund意为“投资，资助”，故此处动词应使用invest，而不是fund。
