阅读下面的材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。

Modern inventions have sped up people’s lives amazingly. Motor cars cover a hundred miles in     1    (little) than an hour, aircraft cross the world within a day, and computers operate at lightning speed. Indeed, this love of speed    2    (seem) never ending.

All this saves time,     3    at a price. When we lose or gain half a day in speeding across the world in an airplane, our bodies tell us so. We get the uncomfortable feeling     4    (know) as jet lag: our bodies feel that they have been left behind in another time zone. Again, spending too long on computers results in     5    (pain) wrists and fingers.

What do we do with the time we have saved? Certainly not relax. In today’s fast-paced life, we find    6     difficult to sit and do nothing or even just one thing at a time. Perhaps the days are long gone     7    we might listen quietly to a story on the radio, letting     8    (imagine) take us into another world.

There was a time when some people’s lives     9    (go) on at a much gentler pace, and in a familiar pattern. We might envy a lifestyle like this. Yet before we do so, we must think of the hard tasks our ancestors faced: they farmed with bare hands, often lived close to hunger, and had to make     10    (tool) from wood and stone.
