Living standards have soared during the 21st century, and economists expect them to continue rising in the decades ahead. Does that mean that we humans can look forward to【B1】______happiness? Not necessarily, Richard, an economist at the University of Southern California, in his new book says that richer people are more likely to【B2】______ themselves as being happy than poorer people are. But steady【B3】______ in the American economy have not been【B4】______by steady and continuous increases in most people’s【B5】______ of their own happiness. There has been not progress in average happiness in the United States over almost a half century.

"Money can buy happiness," Richard says, "People can feel happier only if one’s amounts get bigger and other people aren’t getting more." We might paraphrase his words as follows:【B10】______
The future, then, to which the epoch of modern economic growth is leading, is one of never ending economic growth, a world in which ever growing abundance is matched by ever rising aspirations. In the end,【B11】______

选项
答案
accompanied
解析
语义推断题。空格前是been,空格后是by,空格处应填入动词的过去分词形式构成被动语态。上文中提到经济稳步发展,下文中提到人们幸福感稳步发展,由此可知,空格处单词应该具有“随着,伴随”之意。结合录音,不难填人accompanied。
