Although benzene is highly unsaturated it does not undergo addition reactions. The explanation of this can be suggested as

Answer»

`PI`-ELECTRONS of BENZENE RING are delocalised
since `pi`-electrons are present inside the ring, addition cannot take place
cyclic structures do not show addition reactions
benzene is not a reactive compound.

Solution :`pi`-electrons of benzene ring are delocalised throughout the molecule. This makes the molecule very stable. The stability resists BREAKING of double bond for addition.
