The element of surprise has a big impact on how we feel from moment to moment. We’re happier when satisfied【C1】______instead of certain of a positive outcome in advance, according to a new mathematical model of happiness.
"【C2】______is not about how well you’re doing in general, but rather if you’re doing better than expected," said study author Robb Rutledge. For 【C3】______, you go to a restaurant where the food was the best you’ve ever had. According to the happiness model, you would actually be happier at the end of the meal if you had expected it to be just average, as【C4】______to assuming it would be as delicious as it was.
But this doesn’t mean that having low expectations is the path to happiness, because the model also shows that such 【C5】______thought leads to unpleasant feeling while you wait for an outcome. So if you make plans with an odd friend and【C6】______he’ll cancel, you’ll take a hit on your happiness in the meantime, even if he shows up on time.
On the other hand, imagine cheering for expectation about finally【C7】______concert tickets to see your favorite musician. "The whole day, you might be a little bit happier as a(n)43 ," Rutledge said, even if the performance eventually【C9】______and causes unhappiness later on. " Before you find out the outcome, you’ll be happier if your expectation is higher. "
Both degree of surprise and overall expectation play a part in determining our happy feeling, although Rutledge found that surprise【C10】______more.
A)closely I)obtaining
B)Consciousness J)opposed
C)containing K)pessimistic
D)disappoints L)result
E)distance M)significant
F)Happiness N)suppose
G)instance O)unexpectedly
H)mattered
【C7】
选项
答案
I
解析
空格位于副词finally和名词短语concert tickets之间,且位于介词about之后,故应填入动名词支配名词短语。根据句意,你很兴奋,期望最终得到音乐会的门票,去看你最喜欢的音乐家,故空格处应填入obtaining。备选的另一个动名词containing“包含”不符合文意,故排除。
