8、Conclusion,Text Structure,When we human beings enjoy better life provided by extraordinary economic growth, we should naturally feel happier.,1. What is so-called standard economic theory?,No improvement on degrees of happiness and crime rates.,2. What are the indicators of dissatisfaction mentioned

9、?,When people have enough money to meet their daily needs, extra income may sound not so important.,3. According to the passage, at what stage increased income wouldnt sound so important at all?,Part I: Understanding Questions,Global Reading,Over the last 50 years, we in the west have enjoyed unpara

10、lleled economic growth. We have better homes, cars, holidays, jobs, education and above all health. According to standard economic theory, this should have made us happier. But surveys show otherwise. When Britons or Americans are asked how happy they are, they report no improvement over the last 50

11、 years. More,The Pursuit of Happiness for the Common Good Richard Layard,people suffer from depression, and crime, another indicator of dissatisfaction is also much higher.,,,1,,Detailed Reading,These facts challenge many of the priorities we have set ourselves both as societies and as individuals.

12、The truth is that we are in a situation previously unknown to man. When most people exist near the breadline, material progress does indeed make them happier. People in the rich world (above, say, $20,000 a head per year) are happier than people in poorer countries, and people in poor countries do b

13、ecome happier as they become richer. But when material discomfort has been banished, extra income becomes much less important than our relationships with each other: with family, with friends and in the community. The danger is that we sacrifice relationships too much in pursuit of higher income.,,,

The reason why in

15、some western countries people overall dont become happier with the increase of financial income is that the increase is not substantial at all.,Part 2,4.

17、e.,The reason for this phenomenon is our expectations rise with the financial increase, that is to say, the increase in financial income has been offset by peoples growing expectations.,Global Reading,Understanding Questions:,The desire to be happy is central to our nature. We all want a society in

18、which people are as happy as possible and in which each persons happiness counts equally. That should be the philosophy for our age, the guide for public policy and for individual action. And it should come to replace the intense individualism which has failed to make us happier.,,,,,,3,,Detailed Re

19、ading,Indeed, money is perceived as one of the key factors affecting a persons happiness. But can money alone make us happy in the long run? In any society, richer people are often happier than poor people. Yet, as a western country becomes richer, its people overall do not become happier.,,The reas

20、on for this is that over time our standards and expectations rise to meet our income. A Gallup Poll has asked Americans each year: “What is the smallest amount of money a family of four needs to get along in this community?” The sums mentioned rise in line with average incomes. Since people are alw

21、ays comparing their incomes with what others have, or with what they are used to, they only feel better off if they move up relative to the norm.,,,,,4,Detailed Reading,This process can have counterproductive effects. I have an incentive to work and earn more: it will make me happier. So do other me

22、mbers of society, who also care about their relative standard of life. Since society as a whole cannot raise its position relative to itself, the effort which its members devote to that end could be said to be a waste the balance between leisure and work has been shifted “inefficiently” towards work

23、.,,,,5,Detailed Reading,To reinforce the case, let me explain it in terms of status, which may derive as much from the earning of income as from the spending of it. People work, in part at least, to improve their status. But status is a system of ranking: one, two, three and so on. So if one person

24、improves his status, someone else loses an equal amount. It is a zero-sum game: private life sacrificed in order to increase status is a waste from the point of view of society as a whole. That is why the rat race is so destructive: we lose family life and peace of mind in pursuing something whose t

We should respect people who co-operate with others at no gain to themselves, and who show skill and effort at whatever level. That is why it is so imp

Moreover, those who get promoted must be paid more, since they are talented and the employer wishes to attract,talent. So pay is impor

32、tant at key moments as a way of affecting peoples decisions about occupations or in choosing between employers. The problem is that in most jobs there is no objective measure of individual performance, so people must in effect be evaluated against their peers. But the ranking process, which is very

33、subjective, fundamentally alters the relationship of co-operation between an employee and his boss, and between an employee and his peers.,,,,,,,,8,Detailed Reading,If we want a happier society, we should focus most on the experiences which people value for their intrinsic worth and not because othe

34、r people have them, above all, on relationships in the family, at work and in the community. It seems likely that the extra comforts we now enjoy have increased our happiness somewhat, but that deteriorating relationships have made us less happy.,We live in an age of unprecedented individualism. The

Of course they feel obligations to other people too, but these are,not based on any clear set of ideas in western societies. The old religious worldview is g

I am talking of the everlasting philo

37、sophy which enables us to find the positive force in ourselves, and to see the positive side in others.
