Scientists have said that a close circle of friends and family is most important for happiness, and that owning things such as iPhones, computers, being wealthy and owning a sports car do not provide the same level of satisfaction.The study was done by psychologists at the Sahlgrenska Academy and Lund University, in Sweden. The experts analyzed (分析) articles in Swedish newspapers published in 2010 and recorded which words most often occurred in the same articles as the Swedish word for happiness. In this way, they could know our common happiness.Coauthor Dr Danilo Garcia, a researcher at the Sahlgrenska Academys Centre for Ethics, Law and Mental Health, said，“Its relationships that are most important, not material things that we possess, and this is in line with other findings in happiness research.”The study, which contained more than 1.5 million words, showed that terms such as “grandmother” and personal pronouns such as “you”，“me”，“us” and “them” often emerge in the same article as the Swedish word for happiness. Researchers found that words such as “iPhone”， “millions” and “Google” almost never appear with the word “happiness”The study is a part of a larger research project on how people describe both positive and negative events in their lives. The researchers believe that the word analysis reflects a common perception among the members of our society as to what should make us happy.Dr Danilo Garcia said, “Just as the Beatles sang, most people understand that money cant buy you happiness or love. But even if we can understand the importance of close and warm relationships at a social level, it isnt certain that everyone is aware that such relationships are actually necessary for our own personal happiness.”语篇解读：研究发现，跟朋友和亲人之间良好的关系而不是物质上的东西能够让我们有幸福感。12New research mainly shows that _.Avarious things can lead to happiness in peopleBhaving some close friends is very important to usCowning expensive things can actually make us unhappyDrewarding relationships make us happy instead of material wealth解析：选D细节理解题。根据第一段中的“True happiness lies in rewarding relationships, not material wealth, according to new research.”可知，这个研究主要表明跟朋友和亲人之间良好的关系而不是物质上的财富能够让我们有幸福感。13What Dr Danilo Garcia said in Paragraph 3 shows that the new findings _.Aexplain something newBare unbelievable to many peopleCprove material things are unimportantDconfirm previous findings in happiness research解析：选D细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Its relationships that are most important, not material things that we possess, and this is in line with other findings in happiness research.”可知，这些新发现跟以往与幸福相关的研究的发现一致。14What does the underlined word “emerge” in Paragraph 4 mean?AAppear.
