【高中·完形填空·The Cost of Convenience】
阅读下面短文，从各题所给的四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
Everything is becoming easier. We can buy a meal, book a ticket and call a friend without leaving the sofa. Convenience is the great achievement of our age.
But convenience has a price that never appears on the bill. When a skill becomes unnecessary, it slowly disappears. Many people can no longer read a map, repair a shirt, or cook from memory. We have traded ability for speed.
The danger is not that we use these services. It is that we forget we once could do these things yourself. A person who can do nothing for himself is dependent even when he is comfortable.
Perhaps the wise rule is simple: use convenience for what you could do but do not ______ to do; keep practising what you would be sorry to lose.
