Poets, songwriters and politicians hate the idea, but for decades opinion-poll evidence has been clear; money buys happiness and the richer you are, the more likely you are to express satisfaction with your life. A survey of 43 countries【C1】________on October 30th by the Pew Research Centre of Washington, DC, shows that people in【C2】________markets are expressing almost the same level of satisfaction as people in rich countries. It is the biggest【C3】________to the standard view of happiness and income seen【C4】________.
The Pew poll asks respondents to【C5】________, on a scale from zero to ten, how good their lives are. (Those who say between seven and ten are counted as【C6】________.) In 2010, 57% of respondents in rich countries put themselves in the top four tiers; in emerging markets the【C7】________was 33%; in poor countries only 16%—a classic【C8】________of the standard view.
But in 2017, 54% of rich-country respondents counted themselves as happy, whereas in emerging markets the percentage【C9】________to 51%. This was happening just at a time when emerging markets’ chances of converging economically【C10】________the West seemed to be【C11】________.
Rich countries did not experience【C12】________declines in happiness. The decreases in America and Britain were tiny (a single percentage point),【C13】________the share of happy Germans rose 13 points. A large drop in formerly joyful Spain ensured a modest overall decline for the rich.【C14】________the convergence happened【C15】________huge improvements in countries such as Indonesia and Pakistan. In 12 of the 24 emerging markets, half or more people【C16】________their life satisfaction in the top tiers of the ladder.
This is not to【C17】________the link between income and satisfaction has been snapped. Poor countries still【C18】________: only a quarter of the people there are in the happy tiers—half the level of the other two groups. There is【C19】________a clear link between happiness and income growth. China’s GDP rose at an annual average rate of 10% in 2010-17 and its happiness level rose 26 points.【C20】________ countries, richer people express more satisfaction than their poorer neighbours.
【C19】
选项
A、also
B、only
C、even
D、neither
答案
A
解析
副词辨析题。A项also也;B项only仅仅;C项oeven甚至;D项oneither也不。上文反复提到the link between income and satisfaction“收入与对生活的满意度之间的关系”,该句说:There is________a clear link between happiness and income growth. 二者意思接近,属于并列关系。故本题答案为A项。
