16、urs ago, I was on the plane, ready to fly home from London. The flight had been delayed by a few hours so it felt good to be so close to takeoff. I had my iPod in place and a new book to read. Then, over the loudspeaker came the pilots voice: “The ground crew has found a metal instrument in one tire

17、. We regret that we must cancel this flight.”The passengers responses that announcement led to were interesting. One man close to me began to argue with a flight attendant. A couple in another row complained loudly. A businessman in a black suit actually kicked the seat in front of him. Yet some pas

18、sengers responded differently. An elderly gentleman smiled as he helped others take their bags down from the overhead compartments (行李厢). A teenager, rather than trying to rush off the plane like most of the other passengers, stopped to help a woman with a disability. The lady sitting next to me lau

It combines(结合) and analyzes the results of hundreds of surveys from around the world that have been conducted on life satisfaction. Most of

24、the findings are predictable（可预见的）, but a few are surprising.The database makes it clear that there is not a strong connection between material wealth and general satisfaction. It is a clich to say that money cant buy happiness, but the old saying seems to be supported by researches. Many people sti

25、ll believe that gaining riches will be the answer to all their problems, but they are probably mistaken.Studies have been carried out on people who got sudden wealth, such as lottery（彩票）winners. In most cases, after the initial joy had worn off, people were not left with a sense of lasting happiness

26、. In fact, they tended to go back to the way they felt before they became rich. If material wealth does not bring happiness, then what does?
