Questions are based on the following passage. Over a decade ago, psychologist Barry Schwartz published what might be the ultimate psychological book, The Paradox (悖论) of Choice: Why More Is Less.In it, Schwartz argues that the modern world's smorgasbord (大杂烩) of options——Coke Zero or Diet? Major in sociology or psychology? makes us less happy, not more.'Choice overload', as he calls it, makes us question our decisions, set our expectations too high, and blame ourselves for our mistakes. One of my favorite Schwartzisms is this: If you ever aren't sure if you attended the very best party or bought the very best computer, just settle for 'good enough'.People who do this are called'satisficers', and they're consistently happier, he's found, than are 'maximizers' (完美主义者), people who feel that they must choose the very best possible option.Maximizers earn more, Schwartz has found, but they're also less satisfied with their jobs.In fact, they're more likely to be clinically depressed in general. The reason this happens, as Schwartz explained in a paper with his Swarthmore colleague Andrew Ward, is that as life circumstances improve, expectations rise. People begin comparing their experiences to peers who are doing better, or to past experiences they've personally had that were better. As people have contact with items of high quality, they begin to suffer from 'the curse of insight'.The lower quality items that used to be perfectly acceptable are no longer good enough.The cheerful zero point keeps rising, and expectations and aspirations rise with it.As a result, the rising quality of experience is met with rising expectations, and people are just running in place.As long as expectations keep pace with realizations, people may live better, but they won't feel better about how they live. Schwartz' solution, as he recently explained to the psychology blogger Eric Barker, is just to settle for something that's acceptable——even if you know there's likely something better out there.Whenever you need a new laptop, buy the laptop identical with your maximizer friends'.It is probably not the perfect laptop for you, but good enough for you.It takes you five minutes to make a decision instead of five weeks and it's a 'good enough' decision. It can be hard, in our culture, to force yourself to settle for 'good enough'.But when it comes to happiness and satisfaction, 'good enough' isn't just good——it's perfect. What can be inferred from Schwartz‘s book? 查看材料
