    As a general rule, all forms of activity lead to boredom when they are performed on a routine(常规) basis. As a matter of fact, we can see this 1 at work in people of all 2. For example, on Christmas morning, children are excited about 3 with their new toys. But their 4 soon wears off and by January those 5 toys can be found put away in the basement. The world is full of   6 stamp albums and unfinished models, each standing as a monument(纪念碑) to someone's 7 interest. When parents bring home a pet, their child 8 bathes it and brushes its fur.
