Question

阅读理解

     So you're between the ages of 13 and 24. What makes you happy?
    A worried weary parent might imagine the answer to sound something like this: Sex drugs a little
rock 'n' roll (摇滚乐). Maybe some cash or at least the car keys.
    It turns out the real answer is quite different. Spending time with family is the top answer to that
open-ended question according to an extensive survey-more than 100 questions asked of 1 280
people ages 13-24 - conducted by The Associated Press and MTV on the nature of happiness
among America's young people.
    Next is spending time with friends followed by time with a significant other. And even better for
parents: Nearly three quarters of young people say their relationship with their parents makes them
happy.
   "They're my foundation " says Kristiana St.John 17 a high-school student from Queens in New
York. "My mom tells me that even if I do something stupid she's still going to love me no matter what.
Just knowing that makes me feel very happy and blessed."
    You might think money would be clearly tied to a general sense of happiness. But almost no one
says "money" when asked what makes them happy though people with the highest family incomes are
generally happier with life. However having highly educated parents is a stronger predictor of happiness
than income.
    From the body to the soul: Close to half say religion and spirituality are very important. And more
than half say they believe there is a higher power that has an influence over things that make them happy.
Beyond religion simply belonging to an organized religious group makes people happier.
     And parents here's some more for you: Most young people in school say it makes them happy.
Overwhelmingly (压倒性地) young people think marriage would make them happy and want to be
married some day. Most also want to have kids.
     Finally when asked to name their heroes nearly half of respondents mentioned one or both of their
parents. The winner by a nose: Mom.
