答案D

解析 In Paragraph A ’Eric Wilson fumes that the obsession with happiness amounts to a "craven disregard"[= ignoring in a cowardly manner]for the melancholic perspective[= unhappy view]that has given rise to[= produced]the greatest works of art. "The happy man," he writes, "is a hollow[= empty, i.e. not creative or thoughtful]man.’"; In Paragraph C ’Russ Harris, the author of The Happiness Trap, calls popular conceptions of happiness dangerous because they set people up[= prepare people]for a "struggle against reality" ... "If you’re going to live a rich and meaningful life," Harris says, "you’re going to feel a full range of emotions.’" Distraction A: Seligman argues for the need to study happy as well as unhappy feelings; C: Lyubomirsky is concerned with the way people seem to need constant change to be happy; E: Schwartz is concerned with the fact that too much choice causes unhappiness.
