Relative happiness means______.
Lisa: Frank, are you happy? I mean you have a big house and you have a car.
Frank: I don’t know, Lisa. A lot of people also have houses and cars.
Lisa: You mean you want to have more than other people and this will make you happy?
Frank: Possibly.
Lisa: Then you’re looking for relative happiness.
Frank: Ok, Lisa, what do you think is happiness?
Lisa: Well, through the centuries, people have offered quite different definitions of happiness such as happy people were married women and single men, or happiness meant self-gratification, or happiness could be achieved by eating less or eating more.
Frank: So happiness is rather elusive?
Lisa: I think the happiest people are those who find joy in their daily lives, and who enjoy their friendships, families, work and hobbies.
Frank: You mean they are not bothered by the desire to get something more, something new, something better?
Lisa: You couldn’t be more correct. One more thing, Frank, if you are happy, you may not be satisfied with your life.
Frank: What do you mean?
Lisa: Happiness often means how happy you feel with your life now. Satisfaction often means that people have to take a step back from their lives and look at them in general.
选项
A、you have a wealth of material goods
B、you are as happy as others
C、you are happier than others
答案
C
解析
根据对话开始部分可知Lisa将Frank的那种“只有自己拥有的比别人多时才感到幸福”的行为称之为relative happiness,简言之,relative happiness即:比他人幸福。
