of life and of the heavens are genuinely inescapable. Three problems 32 ; first, how are inevitable changes related to one
another? Are they all ordained by a single cause? Secondly, if so, where does this power of irreversible action come from? Finally,

Generally speaking, human nature tends to deny fate or limit its supposed power; 34 , there is little incentive for all
the constructive endeavours which seem typical of our species. However, experience is broadly 35 . Fatalism
has permeated throughout the history, as Marcus Aurelius put it: “Whatever may happen to thee, it was prepared for
thee from all eternity; and the implication of causes was from eternity sinning the thread of thy being… It was all part of the
great web.”

請依下文回答第 36 題至第 40 題：
Picture the scene: you’ve spent years working towards a specific goal. You’ve put in countless hours of work and
made many sacrifices, but now you’ve got there and it’s not how you imagined. Instead of celebration, elation and pride,
you feel emptiness, confusion and doubt.
Welcome to the anti-climax. The often-experienced but seldom-discussed downside of achieving life’s biggest
milestones. Many of us work tirelessly towards our goals. We may spend our lives dreaming of the day we get married,
publish our first book or purchase our first home. However, often, when we achieve these things, it doesn’t feel quite as
expected. In fact, the achievement of these goals feels a bit of a letdown.
So why do we often experience an anti-climax when achieving big goals? “An anti-climax can be an unexpected
by-product of a milestone achievement,” says psychotherapist Rachel Vora. “Usually, the more significant the milestone,
the greater the anti-climax may be. The journey to achieving a milestone can be exciting and all-consuming in addition
to giving us a robust sense of purpose and focus. Therefore, when this disappears overnight, we can often feel lost and
confused, despite feeling proud of our achievement.”
When this happens, it can prompt a cocktail of complicated emotions. The intensity of an anti-climax depends on
our preconceived ideas and expectations of what this achievement means. Falsely believing that we’ll feel drastically
different afterwards or that our feelings of low self-worth will disappear, is rarely the case.
36 According to this passage, which of the following is closest in meaning to the word “elation”?
Depression. Delight. Indifference. Neutrality.
37 According to the passage, what is the relationship between the significance of a milestone and the intensity of the
anti-climax?
The more crucial the milestone is, the stronger our purpose and focus will be.
Important milestones reduce anti-climaxes.
The more vital the milestone is, the greater the anti-climax may be.
Milestone importance doesn’t affect anti-climax intensity.
38 According to the passage, what can an anti-climax induce?
Cocktail recipes. Intricate emotions.
Innovative ideas. Preconceived expectations.
39 Which of the following best describes the tone of the passage?
Solemn. Sarcastic. Outraged. Pathetic.
40 According to the passage, what can people feel after experiencing an anti-climax?
More motivated to achieve future goals.
Lost and confused.
No emotions at all.
An overwhelming sense of satisfaction.
