In an analysis of reports from 42 countries, U.S. researchers found that married people are consistently happier than singletons. The effect is small, but that still begs the question: Does marriage make you happy, or are happy people simply more likely to get married?
Both answers may be true. In a study that followed more than 30000 Germans for 15 years, Diener and his colleagues found that happy people are more likely to get married and then stay married. But anyone can improve his or her mood by getting married. The effect begins about a year before the "happy day" and lasts for at least a year afterward. For most people, satisfaction levels do return to their baseline, but the researchers say this conceals (掩盖) the fact that a good marriage can have a permanent positive effect. Furthermore, people who are less happy to begin with will get a bigger boost from marriage.
And it seems there’s something special about signing that piece of paper: The research shows that you can’t get as much benefit from simply cohabiting (同居). "My husband says that cohabiting couples lack the deeper security that comes with the formal band of gold, and that is why they are not quite so happy," says Oswald. "Insecurity, we know from all data, is bad for human beings."
According to the passage, what will do harm to human beings?
选项
A、Keeping single.
B、Insecurity.
C、Dissatisfaction.
D、Cohabitation.
答案
B
解析
本题为细节题。首先,文章最后一段说“cohabiting couples lack the deepersecurity”,随后又说“Insecurity,we know from all data,is bad for human beings.”,由此可见选项B.Insecurity.为正确答案。选项A.Keeping single.在文章中并没有说它有什么不对,保持独身虽没有已婚者那样的持续性的快乐,但不至于对人有害;选项C.Dissatisfaction.在文中没有提及;选项D.Cohabitation.虽有提及,但是同居者不快乐的原因是缺乏安全感,而不是同居本身。因此对人们有害的是不安全,不安全的来源有多种多样,同居仅是其中之一。
