[2]Sometimes these things make people happy； other times，people stress over not having reached the goals，or reach them and find they're still unhappy．Other times，people focus on just one goal and don't have time for other things that will make them truly happy．
[3]Some experts studying human happiness and the factors that contribute to it have identified several key areas of life that seem to be more related to personal happiness．Some of them are the things like money，friends，health and living conditions； others are things you may not think of in your daily life，such as your neighborhood and sense of meaning in life．
[4]So while setting your goals，remember all of the areas of life that are important to you and find a balanced lifestyle including social support，personal development，physical health and meaningful pursuits（追求） besides career success and financial security．_____________，your attitude about life and the things that happen to you each day can also have a great effect on your level of happiness and life satisfaction．In addition to being optimistic，happy people tend to believe they are the masters of their fate，rather than the victims of circumstance．

Answer 1

分析 本文講述的是在我們的人生中，金錢等物質無法購買到幸福，幸福是一種個人的態度和追求．

解答 76．Many people make great efforts to make money in an attempt to be happy．
77．People focus on just one goal and don't have time for other things that will make them truly happy．
78．Moreover/What's more/In addition．
79．No，because it's very common that people surrounded by expensive cars and designer clothes still have less personal satisfaction with life than they had without all the things．
80．實現你的目標，設定新的目標，過一種能夠真正使你幸福的生活．
解析：
76．答案Many people make great efforts to make money in an attempt to be happy．段落大意題．根據本段第一句Many people spend a lot of time making money because they believe the money itself will make them happy．許多人花很多時間來賺錢，因為他們相信金錢能夠帶來幸福．
77．答案People focus on just one goal and don't have time for other things that will make them truly happy．同義替換題．本句是指只堅持一件事情的人很難從別的事情中得到快樂．故與文章第三段中的people focus on just one goal and don't have time for other things that will make them truly happy．意義相同．
78．答案Moreover/What's more/In addition．考查邏輯連接詞．上下文是遞進關系，橫線前面是個人發展，社會關系等外在的內容，后面講述的是內在的態度．故上下文是遞進關系，使用Moreover/What's more/In addition．
79．答案No，because it's very common that people surrounded by expensive cars and designer clothes still have less personal satisfaction with life than they had without all the things．細節理解題．本題首先要明確說明金錢買不來幸福．因為物質方面的東西不等同于個人幸福．
80．答案：實現你的目標，設定新的目標，過一種能夠真正使你幸福的生活．考查翻譯．本題的關鍵是對3個并列結構的翻譯，以及句中幾個生詞在上下文中的合理解釋．
