Richer people are happier because money can help purchase goods and services and it is the【S9】______of these materials that increases one’s enjoyment of life and one’s sense of well-being.
Firebaugh and his colleagues measured the age, total family income, and general happiness of【S10】______aged 20 to 64, generally considered the working lifespan(工作寿命)for most Americans.
