Happy people work differently. They’re more productive, more creative, and willing to take greater risks. And new research suggests that happiness might influence【C1】________firm’s work, too.
Companies located in places with happier people invest more, according to a recent research paper.【C2】________, firms in happy places spend more on R&D (research and development). That’s because happiness is linked to the kind of longer-term thinking【C3】________for making investments for the future.
The researchers wanted to know if the【C4】________and inclination for risk-taking that come with happiness would【C5】________the way companies invested. So they compared U.S. cities’ average happiness【C6】________by Gallup polling with the investment activity of publicly traded firms in those areas.
【C7】________enough, firms’ investment and R&D intensity were correlated with the happiness of the area in which they were【C8】________. But is it really happiness that’s linked to investment, or could something else about happier cities【C9】________why firms there spend more on R&D? To find out, the researchers controlled for various【C10】________that might make firms more likely to invest—like size, industry, and sales—and for indicators that a place was【C11】________to live in, like growth in wages or population. The link between happiness and investment generally【C12】________even after accounting for these things.
The correlation between happiness and investment was particularly strong for younger firms, which the authors【C13】________to "less codified decision making process" and the possible presence of "younger and less【C14】________managers who are more likely to be influenced by sentiment." The relationship was【C15】________ stronger in places where happiness was spread more【C16】________. Firms seem to invest more in places where most people are relatively happy, rather than in places with happiness inequality.
【C17】________this doesn’t prove that happiness causes firms to invest more or to take a longer-term view, the authors believe it at least【C18】________at that possibility. It’s not hard to imagine that local culture and sentiment would help【C19】________how executives think about the future. "It surely seems plausible that happy people would be more forward-thinking and creative and【C20】________R&D more than the average," said one researcher.

选项
A、shape
B、rediscover
C、simplify
D、share
答案
A
解析
本题考查动词辨析。本动词与之前的动词help构成动宾结构(本动词前省略了to)。本动词的宾语是由how引导的宾语从句,即how executives think about the future(管理者如何考虑未来),根据此宾语从句的信息可以判断出本填空的动词应该是“影响”之类的意思,而四个选项中能够表达此意思的是A项shape(塑造)。B项rediscover(再发现)、C项simplify(简化)和D项share(分享)所表达的意思均不符合题意,予以排除。
