Passage 3
’Travel’ is the name of a modern disease which became rampant some years
ago and is still spreading. The disease is carried by a germ called prosperity
(成功;繁荣). Its symptoms are easily recognizable. The patient grows restless
in the early spring and starts rushing about from one travel agent to another
collecting useless information about places he does not intend to visit. Then
he or she will do a round of tailors, summer sales, and sports shops, spending
three and a half times as much as he or she can afford; and finally, in August
the patient will board a plane, train, coach or car and proceed to foreign parts
along with thousands of fellow-sufferers, not because he is interested in or
attracted by the place he is bound for, nor because he can afford to go, but
simply because he cannot afford not to. The disease is highly infectious(传
染的;有感染力的)and nowadays you catch Foreign Travel rather as you caught colds
in the twenties, only more so!

________.
A.they are ill
