问题                         Leisure Activities
    According to a magazine I read recently, we now live in an age of increasing leisure. Not【16】o______ are more and more people reaching retirement age with their taste for enjoyment and even adventure, but the working week is becoming shorter and the【17】opp______ for leisure are becoming greater and greater all the time. Not to【18】m______ the fact that people tend to spend less time travelling to work or may even be working from home. What I can’t understand,【19】h______, is who these people are. As far as I can【20】t______ the whole thing is another one of those journalistic fictions. I admit that there are a lot of【21】r______people nowadays, but I am not sure whether all of them are dashing about learning hang-gliding or sailing singlehanded【22】r______ the world. My own parents seem to【23】s______most of their time gazing at the television. And as for the shorter working week, I wish someone【24】w______ remind my company about it. I seem to be working longer and longer hours all the time. The little leisure time I have is eaten into by sitting in【25】t______jams or waiting for trains to show up at rain-swept platforms. I haven’t noticed any dramatic improvements in my lifestyle either, but perhaps I just have to wait until I get my pension.
