Located on the island of Pemba, Vanta Resort is a remote and luxurious hotel, famed for its unique underwater room that allows guests to enjoy the       1     (beauty) marine life of the Indian Ocean from the comfort of their bed!

The unusual room floats almost 250 meters away from the coast and     2     (hold) in place by several anchoring lines (锚索) leading to the ocean floor. The top two floors of the underwater room are above the surface of the water. At sea level, the landing deck (甲板) in     3     middle contains an area for resting and dining as well as the bathroom facilities.    4     (guest) can also climb a ladder onto the top deck to lay out     5     the sun or gaze up at the stars during the night.

Few facts about modern life seem more undeniable than how busy everyone seems to be. Across the industrialized world, large numbers of survey respondents tell researchers they’re overburdened     1     work, at the expense of time with family and friends.

But the total time people are working, whether paid or otherwise, has not increased in Europe or North America in recent decades. What’s more, the date also show that the people who say they’re the busiest generally aren’t.

Part of the answer is simple economics. As economies grow, and the incomes of the better-off     2     (rise) over time, time has literally become more valuable: Any given hour is worth more, so we experience more pressure     3     (squeeze) in more work.

But it’s also a result of the kind of work     4     many of us are engaged. In the past, farming work was subject to weather limits, while at present people live in an “unlimited world,” and there are always more incoming emails, more meetings, more things to read, and digital mobile technology means you have a few more to-do list items.

With time pressure     5     (weigh) us down, it’s hardly surprising that we live with one eye on the clock. But psychological research demonstrates that this time-awareness actually leads to worse performance. So the ironic consequence of the “busy feeling” is that we could handle to-do list less well than if we weren’t so rushed.

Arguable    6     (bad) of all, the feeling of rush spreads to affect our leisure time, so that even when life finally     7     permit an hour or two for recovery, we end up feeling that leisure time should be spent “productively,” too.

If there’s a solution to the busyness epidemic (流行病) , other than the universal 2l-hour workweek, it     8     lie in clearly realizing just how reasonable our attitudes have become. Historically, the ultimate symbol of wealth, achievement and social superiority was the freedom not to work. Now, it’s busyness     9     has become the indicator of high status. “The best-off in our society are often very busy, and have to be,” says Gershunny. “You ask me, am I busy, and I tell you: “Yes, of course I’m busy because I’m an important person!”

Too often, we measure our worth not by the results we achieve,     10     by how much of our time we spend. We live crazy lives, at least in part, because it makes us feel good about ourselves.
