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] 【S10】
选项
答案 are—is
解析 主谓不一致。that引导的宾语从句中主语是enhancing your “love maps，”，而不是离be动词最近的experiences。单个动名词短语作主语时，谓语动词用单数形式，故应将are改为is。
